Beauty

Beauty…. by Vishesh

Depiction of this beauty in detail,
Describes the beauty in the beholder.
Concept of beauty varies with perception,
Conceptualization of beauty remains with each reception.
As Keats exquisitely expresses in Endymion,
A thing of beauty is a joy for ever .
A thing of beauty is a joy for ever.

Harsh Tunes

Harsh Tunes… by Nasra

The lane laden with shady trees,
Gave no hint of the ruthless vast ahead.
Shocked was I, as the traveler,
Scorched by the sight that lay ahead.
I tremble and quiver with the leaves,
As they wither off dry and parched.
Worn put by flute of time,
Frayed by each passing moment in time.
Such harsh tunes that nature plays,..Perhaps
To hone us for the harsh tunes that nature plays.
