Dream of a Survivor

Supinely lying on green dewy grass-
Peeps the sun behind the clouds’ wafture,
loving petrichor, limerence with nature.
Cranes soaring over the oxbow
under the scintilla of the rainbow.
Feeling the glory amidst evergreen serenity-
With me, pale blue sky holding affinity.

 

Opening eyes, but her eyes filled tear,
non-curved smile, driven by fear-
that her son arrived home- survived the war,
who fought for the peace of all and her.
Why not by pacifism? Lost hands, lying on the bed,
watching an arachnid capturing its prey-
Missing the heaven, owned in sweven.
