Crimson Faith

image@google

Tip-toes into room a crimson streak

embracing misty layers underneath

with aura of mother under veil of breeze

enters at alter of dawn with aura n’ gleam

silently kisses drowsy, dreamy lashes

chants prayer in ears with some dashes

as preparing for another day ahead

shedding weary past dwelling on head…...

Tiptoes into yard th' crimson streak

toiling whole day, faded and bleak

pulling on cart of magnificent eve

loaded with dreams, still to weave

lies down on emerald bed under feet

plead moist eyes under smoky sheet

“Let’s rest until dark cleanses path overnight

to start on new way with clarity of insight…...

 Crimson streak… crushed between dark

leaves a tinge of crimson in heart,

paints again pious shadows on its wall

in vibrant crimson stronger than all…….
