Night Watch Poem by Vikram Seth

dawn has come and brought no light.... can be interpreted in many ways... lovely reading

Very true when you are disturbed it happens.

Remaining awake to see the clock ticking away relentlessly is not a very pleasant task indeed...What a lovely way of describing it...That dawn has come and gone and brought no light. Congrats, once again, Vikram, for being the Poet of the Day!

unsettled stillness of the night, wisely used thid phrase in this short poem, sounds good work

unstable mind and delusive situation

This poem 'BEGS' to have more stanzas, but stands alone as a tribute to insomnia. bri ;) 4 stars

Depression is aptly captured in this insightful quatrain

Crisp and concise, yet the poem, with an apt title, clearly draws a picture of night watching 'Through the unsettled stillness of the night'. I commend poet Rajnish Mongia for 'seeing through' the poem and bringing out the gist of it, shared with his own wisdom.

Inner darkness or the pervading pessimism does not allow us to see light of positivity. Beautifully expressed by the poet. Thanks.

Awake! ! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
