Sunset Over City Street Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

Sunset Over City Street

Rating: 4.0


Time of sunset has arrived, sun smiles,
Like an old man smiles without teeth,
As like as from edentulous mouth,
Words come unclear we feel of course.

Edentulous has sun become for setting,
But golden power has not yet fade again,
Calmness is sprinkled with gentle rays,
But still golden crown of victory is shining.

Seeing this beautiful scene over City Street,
Tow trucks facing each other are gossiping,
They are in mood to take little rest today,
Next day during sunrise they will travel.

Street lights are standing to taller to glow,
While dusk will ring the bell of darkness,
Trees are saying goodbye to sun and praying,
Sunset has created beauty in this lovely city.

Riding bikes, scooters and cycles few persons,
They are going to receive relatives at station,
Horn of evening train is blown for arrival,
Goodbye sun, they get joy meeting relatives.
