I very humbly describe me
As one who rides on the wings of fantasy
In tender undisturbed tranquility.
While resting by the blooming blossoms,
I happened to see a butterfly flutter by.
With fire- red wings added with a black tinge,
Above the placid plants it flew high.
...
If love is the term for what I am feeling,
Then it's too low a word for what I know;
For when in my soft smiling thoughts you glow,
You are the bloom of morning, the star of evening.
...
Amidst all God's creations,
Man is above them all;
But by the wars of all nations,
Peace among men had its fall.
...
Sometimes I sit so blank as now,
Quietly- no thoughts, no actions;
Devoid of pressure, of stress or tension.
I don’t know what can disturb this peace!
...
