Reason
Simran Singh 2002 (Kolkata, west bengal)
That will be the "hour"
When trees with leaves flustered
With birds chirping on clusters
Seems nothing but mystical
With no one but a lone vehicle
With each ray of a setting sun
Runs a wind , cadence cum
Zillion of happiness around
Couldn't reason smile bound
Cry of despair or torment of heart
Is nothing but a man's art
Values of someone's presence
Love, sacrifice and innocence
Can ever be cherished?
Before it's 'bout to perish
Yes! this is the "hour"
When everyone seems happy
Alive and rejuvenating
Even smiles a man grumpy
Feeling younger and refreshing
Yes! I couldn't reason a smile
When even carcass look spry
Your words yet fresh like the flowing Nile
Accompanying tears and throat dry.
About this poem
The poem is all about the regret that we hold after loosing that someone who was never important untill they left. The pain, the sorrow, the loneliness that we feel without the one in the world full of people, who meant nothing when we had them.
