A Hymn Poem by Satheesan Rangorath

One-day gloom was hovering.
Darkness was seeping slowly,
smearing melancholy in air.
Unknown fear was hanging in.

Chilly breeze scrub through skin,
eating away warmth of blood.
Shivering in frost of uneasy,
mind wanders in search of little heat.

In a sudden hiss allover veins,
thoughts about you flooded in force.
Every sinews and blood vessels,
caught fire of your compassion.

A flick of a shine from your nose ring,
dived into my dream, waking me up.
I saw your smile bloom on your lips,
unfolding a flower in my heart.

I notice you grew in me subtly,
sharing my vision and thoughts.
One fine day you lit my lips
by enchanting a hymn of gratitude.
