BROKEN INTO COLORS OF A RAINBOW~by Rajendra Padhi

 

 

BROKEN INTO COLORS OF A RAINBOW

I am hidden for a while from eyes of a time
Verily acting as present though not true,
Past has wills and tricks in fleeting steeds
But stays long with me when I grow old.

All the flowers bloom in the arid plane
Tinting it the orange red of the sunny days,
I play a dulcet tune in my old flute
Forget the wind crying to carry me far.

Hours sweeter than vine in dreamy bower
Surge and spurt feelings as nectar,
The heart like a swan dances on its waves
Sweeps away somewhere under the stars.

Now I look at my many worlds I lived
Search for meaning in my sunset sky,
Things are lovelier my heart hold dear
I am not afraid of me in forsaken days.

Life is broken into colors of a rainbow
Born from swift-winged rain and sun,
Though it will vanish in the clouds of time
Awfully keeps shining in rainy nights.
