This poem I've written for Dr.Kolitha Lelwala.He's my great friend and ofcourse my great uncle.He has experienced this beautiful scene him self and described the scene to me...So I thought I should write a poem to him.
Nature Lover
Sunlight came on to my bed
Suffusing my room with a golden hue
Shimmering my mermaid mirror
Sparkling it like a star
Simply flying over the eastern azure
Sandy bathing in the light of the Sun God
Smiling and gliding in the cool breeze
Somewhere I saw a clan of migratory birds
Sparkling a beautiful scenario in eastern purple sky
Spreading sweet scent of roses
Shading our lives perfectly…
Spoiling my bamboo flutes due to weather pattern
Sunny day glittering curiously
Sitting under a sandalwood tree
Slowly blowing my flute with a melodious song
Such a sweet sound making my life heaven
Sending a lovely melody to my mind
Soothing my mind and heart greatly
Suddenly sleepiness arrived
Sleepy sleepy sleeping time.
Still I didn’t know what has happened next
Sensibly thinking about lovely nature
Sprinkling water in my face
Scattering raindrops into my head
Secluded garden became crowded
Sparrow Skylark Starling Swallow
Singing lullabies to me…
Secretly I watched them
Spontaneous feelings growing within me
Savouring every moment
Still I’m falling in love with the nature
Sweet Mother Nature. I’m your Nature Lover…
(Dedicated to my loving Uncle Kolitha )

An absolute pleasure
Splendid, spellbinding,serene, spontaneous spark of a soem...sorry...Poem!!
Ecstatic love for Nature. If Wordsworth was alive he would have given you innumerable kudos. Alliterations, the melting sounds and lilting music and fragrant imagery softly make way to the reader's heart. The very first poem made me your fan:)
As Alison has commented, the alliteration of the 'S' words at the beginning of each sentence are really effective. The poem is so very beautiful, with nature taking the leading role. I am totally captivated by your images and your great Uncle must love this special poem dedicated to him....
Such a sweet, soporific read, Dulakshi. I love the way the S's snake along the border to the poem as well as adding graceful and sibilant alliteration. I'm sure your Uncle Kolitha must be touched by your words. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Some dreams beautiful but some awful; this is really beautiful of uncertain nature
Lovely floating dreamy poem. I liked being 'in' it.
