The days are running
and nights are crawling
and the Sun seemed to have become lazy
as it rises late, making us wait and go crazy.
Every heart is longing for the warmth of it
as the winter days are too cold for the old bones and skinny body.
How do I keep the winter days filled with fun?
It soars my eyes to see the trees naked
and the mountains with snow.
I emphathise the trees and the mountains,
but I can only stare and shun.
Yet, the trees are silently breathing
and the mountains still bearing dreadful cold.
How do I stop the coming of winter?
There is hope of spring, when winter will be gone soon
all we can fantasize now is warm, beautiful, and chirpy spring,
awaiting for us after this winter chill
wondering, if there would be spring without winter thrill?
If it is the call of nature
and the call of winter
I shall embrace and endure the winter- hardship with grace
with the hope of spring, full of glee and warmth and the happiness.
