The Sweet Swing..



How beautiful the childhood! The adolescence!
The delightful age, unknowingly dissolves in us;
Soft, a tender leaf, swayed by the pats,
The embraces, of wandering gentle breeze!!

How stainless the early years! The adolescence!
Friendships, little little water channels!
Flowing ripples, regardless richness,
Poverty, caste, creed, religious thorns!!




How curious the early days! The adolescence!
Hide and seek, hard work, laziness!!
Assessments, little little footsteps,
Success or failure, life’s ladders!!

How mesmerizing the teens!! The adolescence!!
The beads and buds of love, peep in heart’s twigs!!
May bloom, may wither, still, memories,
Sleep in saffron case, in eternal caskets!!

How sweet the salad days!! The adolescence!!
As a drizzle of honey left to dissolve in tongues!!
Is it a drop, the enchanting nectar?
In drooping branchlets, in dense deodar??

How fragrant the spring-time!! The adolescence!!
It smells the valleys where the May time blossoms!!
Flourished with flowers, lustrous even faded,
Creepers fill loveliness, as in sky, rainbows painted!!

How glittering the greenness! The adolescence!
As thousand orions lighted in high space!
Can’t you see, the glistening milky ways?
The glaze of fully filled ghee lamps…

Concealingly passed us the vineyard,
Invisibly shined adolescence in each ward,
Mysteriously, the rhythm of age, the sweet swing,
The fragrance of virtue, showered delightful spring!!

Realizing only now, ripening the leaves soon…
Let me go again, before falling down….
Oh my adolescence! The vase where honey refills and refills!
In the unblemished pathways, with golden spikes!!
