In Praise Of A Dancing Peacock

Who are you, oh heavenly creature?
You mystical, magical preacher!
As I stand by the window utterly dazed,
By the sight in the yonder, which makes me, amazed!

As the first drop comes trickling down,
Your aqua wings spread out like a crown,
From everywhere a splash comes of hue,
And the sun shines gaily and spotlights you!

Then the sight morphs into a wonder,
And the vast sky rumbles with thunder!
Amidst nature you gracefully maneuver slowly,
With the colourful sight turning completely holy!

‘Bam!’ A bolt strikes enragingly,
Turning the sky into blue navy,
But even then you continue your game,
Like a ferocious lion, no one can tame!

Come day, come night, you dance eccentrically,
Against powerful gusts swooping ferociously!
Heaving your wings like a huge fan,
Spinning around with the wind that just ran!

The rumbling vastness stops crying,
And to fiercly write, I am trying,
But never can I capture you on paper with a pen,
As you are the one, the sentinel of heaven!
