Stillness within me and of the night (a sonnet)

28th january 2012 By Sashi Prabhu (zeauoxian)

Stillness of the night, And the dullness in my sight, A cold dark cloudy winter night, The pathway lights shine on bright.

Perched comfortably in the balcony of a guesthouse, The vista so great that the dormant poet in me arouse, The cool breeze envelops my surround, A few dew drops from the moistened leaves drips aground.

The languid wing of air the fragrance of it carries, Of blossomed flowers, trees, plants and berries. Once again the freshness in my mind, Seems to be awakening from the blind.

Welcome, come in the joys of happiness, Its now time to say to darkness
