Bright Dawn
written by: Nafisa Shabbir
Cascading water falls
Over sheer granite walls
The enfolding row of trees
Sway gently in the breeze
The droplets pause a moment
Humming with delight
Before they madly leap down
In a deafening, noisy flight
The river foams with anger
And roars with majestic might
Its waves of rising temper
Put hovering birds to flight
The fishes in the river
Eyes aglaze with fear
Dart away in speed
To hide among the reeds
The pretty scenic sight
Fills me with great delight
I throw my sorrow away
My heart is now light.
I am a senior citizen who has been writing/composing since my teens and I would like to share my thoughts with like-minded people.
