Manifestation Supreme
Anjum Wasim Dar – Pakistan
Green leaves trembling
With the tremors,
Shivering with laughter.
What do they see
That makes them murmur
Sweet rustlings,
Tender whisperings,
Like the twittering
And the flittering,
Manifesting Nature
In the green sea;
Waving leaves
Like the waves,
Moving the living
And the dead,
Spread for miles yet
With limits bound.
Trunk so firm
In the ground
But the green
So serene,
Silently brave,
Taking life’s chance,
Continues with the dance,
Happy to be, to us unseen
With What they see around.
Manifestation Supreme.
