A Day In Spring Poem by Anil Kumar Panda

My mind soars high as the sun
Appears in the east lighting up the morn
I come to walk down the valley where
The soft wind makes waves upon fields of corn

It is a cool morning with dew
Drops shining on the blades of grasses
I sit on a stone by the stream to watch
The girls taking baths and drying their tresses

The clouds flit past the grove
Like vassals sailing across the blue sea
I shout at the colorful birds that
Fly up and down in a playful mood and free

Morning comes with its many
Shades and fragrances when it is spring
Earth becomes a stage for all to enjoy till
It is time in the eve for the temple bells to ring
