TRANSCIENCE
-
Bina Sarkar Ellias (India)
luminous
green—
wings
fly against the wind
as
if in defiance
of
the grey, brooding sky.
streaking
it
with
colour
and
an ecstasy
only
the birds know
only
the music
of
rustling leaves know
only
somnolent shells
holding
legends
of
the waves know—
the
secret of transience.
