I look upon..

I look upon the glittering lamps in the dark sky

Touching their flames to warm up cold desires

Dead leaves degrade to be leaves of next bloom

'Purify thy soul', the winds blow to one's gloom

I look upon the tapping rain drops' sounds

Craving for a gentle melody core doth found

Scorched eyes soothed as an oasis in desert

A mirage of blessings shine on earthy days

I look upon chirpings hidden in dense leaves

Feathered creatures playing merry and gay

The tiniest bough amused in their playful ways  

Lend them an endless fun till the sun hides at bay

I look upon whistling winds chased by thunders

Strength of hundred miles per hour seems blunder

Shaking windows and sounds of breaking glass

Awaken the earth before clouds' downpours start

I look upon the deep ever dying depths of seas

Precious treasures brought to shores by waves of glee

Walking on sandy beaches leaving imprints of art

Hands flow with dreams as a mermaid is cast 

I look upon the coolest glowing sun at dawn

Flowers turn their faces as curtains withdrawn

A distant vision promises brightness and cheer

Steps take me where I steer all hurdles clear

I look upon the rocks at the peakest noon

Hardened with might calling for the coolest moon

Burning surfaces plead in want of a shady bloom

Dreams shape reality as deeds spin in toiled loom
