"The vast canopy ofmy reveries Possessed a library of enthralling colours , Where stories of steadfast love and loyalty Were written loud on the banner. Hand in hand bathed in warmth rang loud and clear . Butterflies roamed the sky and Cuckoos sang mystic songs. The air resonated with the redolences of pristine joy. And all awhile as we took the walk through Both the upheavals and soft meadow, Your unfading smiles and firm grip Led me on,I could feast my eyes on the Spectrum of swirling colours . A dream,a fancy in the land of innocence That paved the pathway and made it easier to stand abreast the storm. But when reality knocked And the curtain moved aside, The wonderworld was robbed of its radiance and the life giving colours. ©Sangeeta Dey Roy"
