Compromise Poem by Dr Dillip K Swain

I am arrested
by a heavy evening rain
Thinking of you
And only you

I see you from the distance
Recollecting your beaming face
Like the new rising sun
Never had it through ages

We fought for a decade
Over a trade of little wealth
As I could do nothing
Except writing for good health

Your late approval for
My madness and my passion
Revived my fading love
In an energetic fashion

I am double-dozed to go on
Being arrested by the nonstop rain
And the mild breeze
Keeps on fine-tuning my brain

Oh, my dear!
The ecstasy of this morning
Is singing a prolonged song
Pleasing my eardrums all along
