Sacred Pot

I am basking on the bliss that comes this era.

Every now and then,

I could recall the euphorical nostalgic sensation of-

Granny's sacred pot.

The night crept in so quickly and quietly,

Nature relaxes with a beaming face.

As I pose like a sleeping dog beside granny's leg,

Now,at that time, when it's sunset.

Words flow freely from granny 

Many gather to sit and listen-

rapt or laughing until the last oil

is spent,the sacred pot dances

with wild imagination, and murmurs of 

appreciation and gasps of amazement.

Just like season begets another simultaneously,

The feeble seed sprouts a tree!

The one who endure the wind and weather,

One who toiled with fire and brimstone but-

Daily scooping the aroma from the ancient earthen,

To dwell amongst earthlings.
