Silence In Winter! Poem by Mrityunjay Jha

The Usual Chirpings
Of Birds
Become Far and Few.
Leaves' Color Faints.
Flowers Hesitate To Open Petals
Full and Wide.
Dewdrops Moisten
The Air.
Mist Weaves A Veil
From Earth To Sky.
The Winter Stamps
Its Signature.

Mercury
Dips
Rather Kind
Here!
Unlike Elsewhere-
Cold and Ice
Chill and Snow
Envelop Such
As If
The World Has Its End
Then and There.
...........(III) .......
.....................
Men and Women
Body and Soul
Love and Longing
Beauty and Bliss
All
Stand Still
For The Time Being
And,
There
Is
Silence
And
Silence
And
Silence! .
