Dr. Celestine Raj MD Poems
A Morn is Born!
The darkness of the night is going, GONE!
The silent, sleeping world is seeing morn;
Another day is ushered by God’s dawn;
The light of moon is dwarfed by sunlight born!
Sunrise heralds a day,... more

Our birth is rather rare!
Hasn’t Nature been unfair?
Our bodies fused at points,
We’re babies freak – you stare!

The new-born babe helplessly lies
In mother’s lap, most of the time;

Most lovely mother, you had been,

Poet: Dr. Celestine Raj MD rating: Sonnet: A ‘King’ for Now
