Revival Of Spring Poem by Namita Rani Panda

After so many years
I have quite a quiet leisure
With ample time to be with myself,
To care my rough nails and fingers
To rest my feet, sit silently and just ponder,
No hurry to complete the daily chores or official tasks
No need to look at the mirror to set the make up mask.

After so many years
We have quite a quiet leisure
To sit together face to face
He is not in a rush to catch the bus
He dived into my eyes wide open
In search of the treasure, long forgotten
And set with his loving fingers
My unruly willow hair
That obstructed his vision
And I remembered his alluring eyes' forgotten colour
For long we shared and cared
His smile spread to mine
Again we know each other
As Spring revived within us with new vigour.

After so many years
We have quite a quiet leisure
To enjoy from our terrace the bliss of Nature
The green lolling tongues chanting together
The glory of the supreme Creator,
The cuckoo with his mellifluous song joined as their partner
The air perfumed with the fragrance of mango flowers.
After so many years
We listened to the voice of Nature
So distinct and clear
No human voice to interfere
Spring set in with much vigour and fresh flavour.
