A Sonnet


 


All  In The Family : A Sonnet
 
 
A leaf or  flower dances in the  wind .
A floppy fish which  swims towards the sea.
A puppy stumbles on the lawn  behind .
A robin flits after a  honey bee.
 
A farmer  sweats under the red hot  sun.
A child buys  from the stores his  food and  drink. 
A  joker's funny  grin , the lopside  one.
A teacher who  runs  out of chalk or ink.
 
The blossoms, fruits from orchards or wild field.
The peak ,  gigantic with its   trails  and tracks.
The squirrels hidden in  a bush for shield.
A  kid  alert to bigger beasts'  attacks.
 
The painter , God ,  who  has  this picture drawn,
awakes  the world at  break of sunrise  dawn.
