My sweet village

Village
O, my sweet village
Where have you disappeared
I always miss you.....

Many times I searched you in
Concrete’s jungle of city
I searched you in my home’s
Nearby parks
I searched you on my computer’s screen
And also tried to search you on
Long black charcoal roads
But alas……
I could’nt found you any where.
Village
O, my sweet village
Where have you disappeared?

Some times I try to search you
In my defused memories
Some times in my dreams
Some times also try to search you
In my books,charts and maps
But alas…….
I always fail in my all attempts
To find you.
Village
O, my sweet village
Where have you disappeared?

O, my sweet village
Once
At least for once
I want to meet you
Want to go back
To my childhood
Want to play again
In your muddy lanes
Want to run in yellow mustard fields
Chasing colorful butterflies
Want to climb the mango trees
Want to taste sweet blackberries
Of my garden
Want to inhale the fresh air
In my soul
Filled with the sweet fragrance of
Jasmine, magnolia, marigold
And rose flower’s.

O,my sweet village
Give me a chance to meet you
I want to live my sweetest time
Again
Which I had spent in your loving lap.
