I strolled to the park after a long time <br />In between passed some seasons <br />Hunted there for meaningful rhymes <br />Give the ink's flow some reasons! <br /> <br />The place didn't look exactly like before <br />The trees seemed to grow taller dark <br />The buds had flowered fruits now they bore <br />New lovers had arrived in the park! <br /> <br />The faces I knew were not passing by <br />The poets the revelers and the crooks <br />A despair grew I let off a sigh <br />Had disappeared my frequented nooks! <br /> <br />Old pairs were gone surfaced new teens <br />Wind carried raw mango's scent <br />Mowers had changed known faces of greens <br />With only a few seasons spent! <br /> <br />Nests up the trees were clearly redone <br />Peeked out from them new pairs <br />Children that came to the park for fun <br />Had must now grown long hairs! <br /> <br />I searched the park from the seasons rolled <br />And when I reached her quiet stream <br />My face told me though I had grown old <br />still clung to all the past's dream!<br /><br />Pradip Chattopadhyay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-few-seasons/
