To The Silent Night Poem by Ruta Mohapatra
To The Silent Night
Oh gently passing night
Can't you lull me to sleep?
How long can I keep
Counting the sheep?
It was a busy bustling day
And I savoured each moment
Heeding the lesson life has taught
To live in the present
Now I need to gather my strength
To meet a new day
So, cut my stream of thoughts
Let sleep come my way
You can bless me with a dream
Of a gently flowing stream
In a lush green valley
Where a thousand flowers sway
The poetic urge to the sublime night to lull the uncanny self to sleep is fabulously sketched! The subtlety of expression is adorable…As a reader, I love to quote: You can bless me with a dream/of a gently flowing stream/in a lush green valley/where a thousand flowers sway…10
