The Shafts Of Love Poem by malini kadir

The shafts of love

Yes! the shafts of love! !
Bright this morn
Touched the bean
Sprouts raised their pretty heads

The kitten at the back-door
For loving laps
Of the saucer of milk
Tip toed

Courageous wind brazen
Unabashed by man’s progress
Tall deciduous taller evergreens
Swish washed by!

The stars of the night
In splendour of day light
White washed invisible!
Fluffy clouds on bright blue sky!

Sun sent its shafts of love
To the slow caterpillar
Fleeting butterfly
The beaming flowers
And the men; loving
All alike!

For the Lord has a hope in his creations!
And the Sun was his messenger
Loud and clear this morn! !
