An exulted order of the past <br />A veiled face appears. <br />Life within longs for a mast <br />A timid wish withers. <br />The unveiled eyes see <br />A world of beauties meagre <br />And it craves for being seen <br />By the world not so obscene. <br /> <br />An exulted order of the past <br />A guiled sweet smile crushes. <br />Life within falls for torrents fast <br />A soul snails into a world of bushes. <br />A sob deep within is heard <br />A hand that cares is seen. <br />An old God`s dry song is read <br />But any bliss around is not seen.<br /><br />M.D DINESH NAIR<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-veiled-face/
