Scorching heat of summer <br />More than bright Sun rays <br />And the magic is gone <br />From fresh spring time haze <br />Baby pink fresh soft fronds <br />Nurtured by <br />the humming bird songs <br />Weathered and dried up <br />Lifeless for long <br />Parched Earth <br />With cracked mud <br />Barren and dead <br />The seed lost its trust <br />Now it seems <br />I tracked a mirage <br />Chased the Sun <br />Got lost at last <br />There is no <br />Coming back for me <br />I climbed the sun-rays <br />And scorched my history<br /><br />Nalini Chaturvedi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sun-burns/
