uncertainty dangles in the air
looking for zealous eyes
sheer curiosity makes sense
sympathies out of question
part of gigantic soul in the park
witnesses transition of seasons
with patience and determination
air tickles its delicate surface
sings rustling songs in the evening
humbly bends down with changes
holds fast the fruit laden branches
time plays hide & seek daily
replaces its emerald skin
with gilded specks of maturity
mask of exuberant colours
majestic view without any attention
fall of the fall leaf on empty bench
finds a temporary place for solace
until the wind changes its direction
and takes it to the world unknown!
