MELANCHOLIA
Gazing grumpy, from the high sky rise,
Heard a baby crying bitterly.
The mother in rags, comforting it lovingly.
It opened my heart to break the ice.
The pent up regrets set up a quagmire,
Thought of how poverty is a nightmare.
The baby calmed, gave a Godly smile.
Mother hugging it looked like a Queen for a while.
Realised, melancholy is an inner mood.
In rags, riches, mansion or wood.
Cheers to the impeccable Creator,
So many dualities, made in sonder.
