Beneath a sky of graying frowns,
Behind a waning moon,
Beneath a group of frozen clouds,
Bereft of raining moods,
Beneath a bunch of aging stars,
Bemused to wink or shine,
Beside a sea of stoic waves-
Betwixt two shores alien-
Besieged raving hostile birds-
Believes in no singing-
Beside a smiling fate, he girds
Begins the countdown ring

In these days, when some so-called poets divorse all the aids to poetry like alliteration, personification, rhyme, rhythm etc. and present some bland prose-like pieces in the guise of poems, this poem is like a fresh breath of air in sultry weather. All the lines starting with a 'B' and your reference to Nature in a multiple ways are a couple of remarkable features of this poem. Truly well-crafted.
very poetic, a lone man amidst the back dropp of the world, the ambience well created great work sir-10

Beneath a group of frozen clouds we see the beauty of waning moon and we feel the mood of raining. Natural perception is excellently brought up. Before a sea of stoic waves a smiling fate will of course rise with beauty of sun. This poem has rich imagery and this is excellent one.
