On a bright sunny afternoon 

I sat amidst all the noises 

Every person looking so busy, 

Some expressions sad, some messy 

Some happy, some confused. 

There is so much going on all around, 

So much in everybody’s mind…. 

I sometimes wonder what is the other person thinking…… 

Like mine, there must be several thoughts going on in his mind. 

From  far away I can hear some birds chirping, 

As if talking amongst themselves…. 

The flattering of wings and flying away looks like their usual routine, 

Even they must be upto something… 

I sit alone and just listen, I sit alone and just observe, 

The serenity in the hustle bustle, 

The quite noisy afternoon…. Which makes me feel so relaxed!!! 

The shiny sun is still looking down at me, 

In my thoughts I ponder here and there 

So much noise still no disturbance 

So bright still so soothing….. 

In so much brightness, I just sit back and relax!!!!
