THE TWILIGHT ZONE: A DREAM VISION
(From my Initial Collection)

Far amidst the land we live
Enfolded by mountain peaks
Lived a boy, his family,
Within some lonely creak

A father, mother and a child
(a sister that would be )
Apart from that, a dog and a cat
Were all his eyes perceived!

And just like this , the moments ticked
Through days of endless glee
And their life!
It went on,
Without a changing breeze

And finally the day arrived
As just among the rest
With the emerald sky and the shining sun
It started at its best

But no one knew
Not one or few
What nature had amassed?
The boy innocent, notionless
Played with the dog outdoor

Alas ! it gave a massive blow (with terror jolts, the forsaken house!!!!!)
The roof went all aloof
And the tiles lay crumpled, scattered all
And the debris smoked with dusty hue

Wake up son!
For heaven's sake
A voice heard deep within
My sight returned ,a drowsy head
I saw my mother weep
Before a word, that I could speak
With a whimper, could she say
It’s just me and you ,not a single few

Has remained ,amongst the rest

Dear son , I do abhor
This loneliness with in
And before the rest that I could hear
A quaver jolted me

My eyes beheld a different world
My father gaped at me
My sister wore a frightened stare
A hiatus blinding me

The only word which I could say
“Oh mother” ,where is she????
with the fading debris in the air
Some morbid legacy

At last ,the halted silence broke
It came from father’s lips
“Oh she is gone” , a sad demise
Her parting from the rest

What games, what part and what performance
Had time flippant with me
I thought I did, I was confused!
Which second to believe?

I closed my eye, my lonely cries
Unsettling from within
And then alas, my mind impulsive
A feeling grafted in
TWILIGHT ZONE, THE TIME IT WAS
THE LADY VISITED ME.....
