Gaia’s Orchestra

Like applause in rising crescendo, peepal leaves merrily rustle
Ah! They welcome of a shy gust of breeze!
Enraptured I sit, not missing a beat of this magical bustle
as impish zephyrs my tresses tease!

The stage is set, the overture presented by buzzing bees
As robins chirp and cicadas chime, 
the barbet ups tempo with its ‘kook kook’ from yonder trees
 The cuckoo’s song’s the aria; melody sublime!

Nature’s divine orchestra lifts my soul each time
ne’er failing my angst to appease 
 Wrapped so in your love O Gaia, your benevolence prime
 in prayer, I drop to my knees!

Manoshi Bose

Manoshi Bose is a postgraduate in Analytical and Medicinal Chemistry and began her career in the pharmaceutical industry. However, her long-drawn clandestine affair with the written word just refused to die. After traveling the length and breadth of the country with her man in blue (Air Force, not Cricket) and dabbling in various fields like teaching, medical transcription, and content writing, she has finally decided to give her love for writing the time it deserves. As an empty nester currently living with her husband and five dogs in rural India, she believes there's ample material for her to tap into.
