Shades of Gray

English Poetry |
On the slopes of snowy hills
In the midst of dense greenery
Beside the pure stream silvery
Mine is a cottage small, full of art.
The mysterious Life my inspiration
The trees, clouds, birds and hills
Seeker of beauty, I try to capture
The nature’s beauty on the canvass
Paints, colors, brushes, paper
All companions in my lonely life
Creating a world of mine own
I live here in my humble hut
This journey of mine was yellow bright
Then had stripes of mild orange green and raging red
Before it turned to dark sad black
I stopped it in the shades of grey
Yes, shades of gray I call life now
Not sad black, not happy white
Not so good, not that bad
Just a median line of peace
When there is happiness immense
Distress stands behind waiting
Bliss and gloom just change their turns
In the life’s drama, so strange
So don’t bloom in merry days
Don’t be depressed when gloominess prevails
Be !Calm and serene because only peace remains
Search the inner peace and that’s what you need
beautiful imagery!
@rachana, thank you rachana!
Delighting peaceful picture
Beautiful imagery in words laced with enlightening sublime thoughts.
Liked immensely..
Kudos…So don’t bloom in merry days
“Don’t be depressed when gloominess prevails
Be !Calm and serene because only peace remains
Search the inner peace and that’s what you need” …classic meaningful ending…
@Vishvnand, thank you. i too liked the lines u liked. as u said in one of your poems ( who’s this within) i have not written those lines. my pen moved and i felt like in trance when i wrote these. 🙂
“Paints, colors, brushes, paper
All companions in my lonely life
Creating a world of mine own
I live here in my humble hut”
So feel I. ‘Wish I could have an abode like you have.I think the poem could convey efficiently what was desired even keeping apart its last stanza.
