Love Poem: Seagulls

Seagulls

The dusky eve in country meads
In rainy weather rainy day
All trees  were standing stony still
While kids in street with boats they play

The water smiled and flowed in lake
And smiled all time the mirthful gulls
As silent as a painted scene
To throbbing heart to itself pulls

In watery fields they stood like saints
As in a ritual in a pray
So far so far I stood in awe
A single word I cannot say
Thousands of Questions in my mind
Hide and seek as if they play 

Seagulls are mad in natures love
As mad as any one can be 
The weeds' the lake, the ancient wood 
Surpassed the every scene in glee
Oh nature such angels of mirth! 
You cant and cant in all world see

The smiling blooms all smiled at them
While leaves composed a beauty tune
The gushing water gushed in mirth
With icy flakes with sleety tune 

In sullen morns in mournful eves
When sadness sends her gloomy rays
They sooth me with their beauty sight
Forever in my heart they stay

In greenish vale on watery lake 
No worldly painter paint such scene 
In darkish nights of waning moon
They shine with an unearthly sheen
