Let me tell you <br />What I enjoyed this dawn: <br />Got up at my usual hour; <br />No hangover, no frown; <br />Stepped out of my house; <br />Eased briskly, looking <br />Towards east horizon; <br />To my favorite hillock zone <br /> <br />Sat on the bank of <br />The river running bye; <br />Watched the golden rays <br />Merrily reflect on <br />The silvery water trays; <br />Caught hold of the fragrance <br />Of the blooms that early rise; <br /> <br />Heard the ebullient birds <br />Exchange warm welcome greets; <br />Noticed the crazy breeze <br />Mumble sweet words <br />To the gleefully listening leaves; <br />Watched in my joy <br />The rhythmic willowy sways; <br />Wondered how brilliance expand <br />Abundant all over the sky... <br /> <br />Bid sweet farewell <br />To the parting golden cart; <br />Walked slowly back; <br />A portrait upon my heart; <br />I am presenting it now <br />To you, my dear pals! <br />Till now you have listened; <br />A million thanks to each and all... <br /> <br />4th June 2009<br /><br />Kesav Venkat Easwaran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/let-me-tell-you-6/
