Nectar of Life
Nectar of Life
Watch leaves twist and sway,
And somersault in the wind,
Look how they traveled in life !
Graceful they touch the soil !
When you look at thoughts,
And dump them in old bucket,
Think of the curves of mind,
Do you still smell the spring ?
The well is bereft of water now,
Kids throw pebbles and rejoice,
It smiles a bit and loves the fun,
Don't forget how you visited it !
Rhapsodic then your thirst was !
The wind that blows so hot now
Was it not cool on your cheeks ?
Where are tears of bliss now ?
Dwell you in the reticent heart,
And autumn of your deep eyes,
Vestige of the roaring waves,
Let the life chisel you sharp,
And love sip into your senses,
Cast a spell on eternity itself !
As a camel, sip nectar of life !
Resurrect what you have lost !
