Monday 18 April 2022

The first sharp ray

rips the curtain apart.

The mango tree has blossomed.

A heady fragrance,

a hint of gold in the midst of green.

The sounds invade the world around.

A woodpecker is frantically busy.

chiselling away with speed

at the bark of the peepul tree.

My heart, inhale the world coming to life.

The smouldering has ceased.

The morning has transformed the fumes

into a crisp air, the aroma of summer wind.

This small hour stands still

like a child waiting to be hugged back in love
