O Newton! <br />What must be in His Mind when you thought of an apple falling from a tree! <br />a mystery of sweet Nature <br />unveil'd from a Genius's mind <br />one flash of a brilliance <br />brighter than a thousand stars burn'd <br />a moment frozen for a destiny <br />a soul's eternal wish for an eternity <br /> <br />That moment <br /> <br />the sun, the moon, the planets and the stars <br />looked at you in a bewitched glance <br />spellbound as if in a slip of a balance <br />from their orbits <br />looking far far away, they whispered to each other <br />in great bewilder <br /> <br />For they had never seen <br />never perceived <br />ever felt <br />such an outrageous thought amongst all the bizzare events <br />that happen every day in their cosmic world <br />never heard a song so melodious from the heart of their Universe <br /> <br />Whilst the mother earth caressed your starlit mind in utmost care! <br /> <br />copyright: shamik bose 2009 <br /> <br />Dedicated to Sir Issac Newton - Physicist, Mathematician, Philosopher, Alchemist and the awe inspiring Genius who only comes once or twice in a Millenium<br /><br />Shamik Bose<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/o-newton/
