THE RAIN BUILDS A BRIDGE by DHAN GOPAL MUKERJI

Last Line: Up to the temple of Eternal Sleep
Subject(s): DEATH;

The rain builds a bridge
Between the sky and the sea;
The breeze sings his beggar-song
From the brine to the lea;
A lone tree, solitary pilgrim,
Waits on the shore of the deep
To walk on the steps of waves strewn with rain-flowers,
Up to the temple of Eternal Sleep
