Which is your favorite place on Earth? Hears mine........ <br /> <br />The sun promised a charming dawn every dusk, <br />And went off for a nap in his husk <br />And lilies never forget to bloom, <br />Driving away numerous gloom <br />I see my hometown, standing proudly <br />Shielded by the sea and the lake, so lovely <br />Words deny painting her beauty <br />Paints are scanty to colour her liveliness <br />God’s own hand sewn stunning dress <br />Calmness prevails, peace rules <br />Striking tiaras, green hues <br /> <br />Breezes fan her, beauty shines <br />Waters wash her, sunshine dries, <br />When I breathe in the salty air, <br />I hear the winds chant hymns, everyone care <br />The sun kisses the sea, the moon’s seen <br />A synonym of Juno’s mien… <br />Lying on a glowing bed, an infinite sea <br />Stars keep company, an urge to live free <br /> <br />I bike down the road, <br />It takes me on its own accord. <br />The winds tickling my face, the waves coil <br />I lay down on the shiny black soil <br />Waves splashing on my feet, sun on my face <br />Time forgets to keep its pace <br />Good natured people, with hearts of gold, <br />I see them do their afternoon chores <br /> <br />If ever, the big boys in heaven, <br />Send a shooting star, across the skies, <br />What I’d wish is to <br />Keep my hometown the way she is <br />This is where my heart lies <br />Hometown…… <br /> <br />16th April 2009 <br /> <br />© Copyright Aiswarya T Anish, Kerala, India<br /><br />AISWARYA T ANISH<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/written-in-native-soil/
