Sun And Frost Poem by Rajendra Prasad Meena Jaipur India

Sun And Frost

When summer comes, the restless heat
Turns quiet roads to burning feet;
It steals our sleep, it dims the mind,
And leaves a thirst that grows behind.

To chase the shade, to catch the breeze;
It calls for rain, for clouds above,
And makes us long for nature's love.

Then winter comes with silver air,
And wraps the world in colder care;
It makes us hide, it makes us stay,
And pulls the warmth of life our way.

The plants, too, feel this changing art—
Some bloom in heat, some frost can start;
Too much of either, harsh and strong,
Can make a tender leaf belong
To dust, or make its green fade away.

Yet both are parts of nature's play.
Summer and winter, fire and frost—
Neither is gain, and neither loss.
They trouble us, yet make us see
The beautiful balance of being free.

One burns, one freezes; both command—
Yet both belong to nature's hand.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Sun and Frost explores the contrasting powers of summer and winter. Summer brings heat, restlessness, thirst, and sleeplessness, while winter brings cold, stillness, and the desire to seek warmth. Yet both seasons have their own purpose in nature. Through images of burning roads, shady trees, cool breezes, silver air, frost, and delicate leaves, the poem shows that neither season is completely good or bad. Different plants thrive in different conditions, while extreme heat or cold can harm them. At its heart, the poem is about balance—how opposing forces can both be necessary parts of nature and life.
