A dreadful meaning!

Anjandev Roy 1973 (Burdwan)

The bright sun is shining,
The gentle breeze is blowing,
The beautiful flowers are blooming,
The sweet birds are singing,
What a wonderful scene!
Everybody is enjoying
The great season
With their heart's content;
But............
The dark stranger is laughing
From the back of the curtain,
Indeed a dreadful meaning!

    Wow, what a beautiful and vivid description of nature and the joys of the season in your poem! The imagery you use really brings the scene to life and creates a sense of peace and happiness. The contrast created by the dark stranger at the end adds an element of mystery and intrigue.

    One improvement suggestion could be to maybe explore more about the dark stranger and the dreadful meaning they bring. It could add depth to the poem and create a more impactful conclusion. Overall, fantastic job on setting the scene and evoking emotions in the reader! Keep up the great work!
