Nostalgia of the slow world



When winds of silence blow,
I am there to breathe.
Where seeds of solitude sow,
Happiness is there, I believe...

Sometimes when I am alone,
And my friends leave.
Pulchritudinous books are there,
To whisper, solace is peace.

Sometimes I cry,
And my heart bleeds,
I still have sometime to try!
And new qualities I sieve!

The leaves curl and fall from the tree!
On the book which I crave to read!
I see the sapling grow from seed!
Seems like saudade from the thee!

The world is fast,
For the lonely world by me..
And only one is left!
And I am he....

About this poem

We often forget to cherish simple but exciting things in this trivial cycle of nature. But we often fear to be left behind in this fast moving world. This poem is about being the witness of the nature though being in a fast and furious world
