poet Palas kumar Ray
What do you think this poem is about?

Reasons

I didn’t care
For a reason to sing
For you or me
For none there at all.

Time has now passed away
Songs are all gone
My vision’s now clouded
by million reasons.

Oh, such a great fall!

    Nicely done! Although the length maybe expanded if desired, no damage will be done.

    A good-quick read for me!
