Snowing Xmas
Magnificent! Willow stands in silent prayer,
enthralling, calm and composed,
It's snowing tonight..bestowing blessings ~
so does the evergreen unruffled...
stretching its arms in thankfulness,
decked with shimmering snow-pellets,
in absolute harmony of the cosmos magnanimous.
gleaming and glistening as the stars countless~
It's Christmas! symbolizing the spirit of
kindness, love, compassion glow...
I glimpse through the hazy window-panes,
world around me dazzling with scintillating snow.
reminiscences of many delightful Christmas
roll gently through my thoughts,
an open album of heartfelt memories~
of boxes, ribbons, and golden bows.
sprinkles, silver bells, and cookies...
of family rejoicing together...
of extending generous support to the needy,
true essence of Christmas for ever.
A tranquil, serene, dreamy night,
mesmerizing snow, falling unhindered,
envelop the entire universe around me.
I ponder my life of hues multi-coloured.
The exhilarating ebullience - for ever crystallized..
the inspiring dreams, the fervent hopes,
never fail to sight the mystifying truth
in every alluring snowflake I behold.
