A CANOPY
Under the canopy by my field
of paddy with giggling stream:
I ..
Singing, dreaming and reeling
in thrilling Nature’s pasture ,
live ever darling, O! darling ;
I live ever darling, O! darling .
See..
Glancing around as camera eye
Imprints images so sweet, dear.
of graceful quadrupeds grazing
gliding birds , swinging monkeys
dashing fishes in frothy stream.
Sigh..
At times, why ?... sigh I?
Thy sweet dreams nag, me,
and hoist the faded flags.
Why not pardon, ..methinks
we lived a life of slouch, no ?
Die..
Die or dye.., what in life
prudent ? think, in thick
woods we find tough life
still, Nature nurtures life.
Under the canopy by my field
of paddy with giggling stream:
let us live ,dear, without strife,
and lead a carefree lovely life.
