One Poem by Sushant Thapa

 

To Talk About Things and Subjects  

 

 

The night is still young.  

I search for life under stars.  

The wind touches my eyes  

And I keep dreams  

For my waking sensibilities.  

The air kisses me again  

And I give my heart  

To the art of time.  

The ticking clocks  

All age like wine 

Still showing true face  

Of the entire modern world.  

Variation is the theme  

And nature is diverse.  

By the Volta of the couplet  

The Shakespearian twist  

In My Mistress' eyes are nothing  

Like the sun  

Doesn't make any art old.  

Even death is a gentleman  

In art, like in Dickinson's poem.
