It was Spring when I was a kid,
Flowers grew, birds flew,
The sun glittered..I saw all of them.
All my school years were Summer
Scorched with work, books, exams.
It was a long Summer.
I wonder now..
Is it the Fall?
Or a twist in the cycle of seasons?
There are groves of buds and flowers filling my inwards span.
I see yellow leaves falling off trees.
Cold snowflakes flashing ahead.
It’s beautiful..to be lost.
