Charming Autumn Poem by Gajanan Mishra

Autumn
Charming, most charming autumn
Is here, at this time.
The limpid water of rivers and lakes
Looks charming like a saint's heart
Devoid of pride and infatuation.
Devoid of mud and dust the earth assumed
Lovely aspect.
The cloudless sky is shining as bright as Truth
Abandoning all desires.
Time for practicing penance has arrived
And ascetics are happy.
In deep water the fish are as happy as ever.
With full-blown lotuses the lake appears charming.
The bees are making humming sound with unique melody of its own.
The moon by night relieves the heat of the sun.
Mosquitoes and gadflies and other insects have perished
With the advent of autumn.
