Riding On... Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Riding On...



Pretty old man age
beyond his ways
Flame like streaks
around his face
Wakes up each day
with a crimson face
Resumes routines
round domain
Rides in cart drawn
by mares unseen,
Seven shade face
theirs single seen...

the theme and your use of the right amount of words makes this poem a memorable one....picturizing the sun as the 'old man' expresses how one should respect this life sustaining source....very nice...
