the sun did not rise today
the sun did not rise today
its role was cut off.
seeing this, the flowers
fell to the ground without blooming,
the green leaves scattered without turning yellow
but the sun did not rise today
the waves of the sea did not touch the shore
a flock of birds started flying
in one direction to search
for the sun that comes every day.
by tearing the mountain,
the roots of the trees,
felt suffocated,
n started circling here and there
in the abyss
but the sun did not rise today
the lake, unable to embrace the day,
started flying towards the sky
above the mountains.
every wall of the house
began turning blind,
the fishes, yearning for the sun's smile,
started fainting,
the full moon fell from
heaven and stood in the desert
but the sun did not rise today
the birds singing
in the sweet dawn became mute.
the butterflies,
searching for the drops of dew,
started drying up.
the milk-filled cow's breasts
started bursting and the calf
started searching for the well
but the sun did not rise today...
its role was cut off.

Deep poem with the lamenting of the sun, leaves you to ponder depths of its background meaning. Enjoyed the fish fainting line.

Really enjoyed looking at this poem, dimpy. I believe it's one of the best I have read from you. I agree with Mary that it is indeed quite a melancholic write. May the sun rise for you very soon! 😊

We have had a rather sunless day in my part of England, with weather forecast rumours of a stormy Thursday/Friday night followed by a heatwave over the weekend!
