She

She thought she was in wonderland
At ease and peace with all in stand
Dew drops glittering on glossy green grass
Nature enthralling that took her in trance

Flowers that bloomed smiling at her
Birds seem to sing welcoming her
How was everything so perfect
Why did everything seem so correct

She sat under the shade of a tree
And noticed something come beside
A squirrel perhaps was back from its ride
It also seemed in a lively spree

It looked at her and ran around
Went back to hide and made some sound
Its gleaming eyes peeped at her
She thought it was in some kind of a stir

She breathed a sigh, the one of grief
And thought for a while about her strife
The solitude now was called loneliness
The peace she felt was now distress

She breathed again, this time of relief
And thought again this time in belief
A minute it took to get back her smile
She realised it wasn't worth that mile

A lesson she seemed to learn that day
Live in the present, keep the past at bay
When she smiled at life it showed her wonders
She finally learned to enjoy those thunders

P.S: Shubha, dont ask me why, but i just like to dedicate this one to you :)
