THE CRADLE OF DEATH!
The dazzling boldness of the blue sky
camouflaged by the dark kingdom,
the inflated sea waves
lashed against the shore,
broke the barrier,
uprooted the verdant trees,
the fury flaunted
the aves forgot to chirp,
the fauna ensconced,
the flora sent orisons above!
The cauldron of death
bred on the ocean floor,
inchoate not it was,
spirals of thousands
moved and shook
taught the human race
a tough lesson of avenge!
The deluged settlements,
the cries,
the anguish,
the grudge,
emanated -
from the inner realm-
as hemmed in by the murky aqua
and embodiments of the green hemlock!
The wind gusts
played havoc
accompanied
the mighty showers!
Apollo drifted into a deep slumber
in the rain soaked breezy dawn,
in the rain swept dusky firmament!
The pulse effaced its function -
to throb in the urban bubble,
chased by the dollops of halogen lights.
Multitude dispersed
amid the chaos of cosmos!
Umbrella tale spun
falsehood of eternity!
Drenched to the feet,
wiggled the toes,
raison d'etre
fled to a quaint isle
imperceptibly!
I, with a broken heart,
voyaged back.
Resilence.
The mosaic steps
decked up
with the wee drops of stormy symbolism!
Dessicated foilages
burst into a paroxysm of tears,
the peal of laughter
thawed into languishment,
the aggravated eye
snatched -
never took the oath
to restore, to revive!!
