Sudeshna celebrates nature through the myriad moods of seasons in these verses.
Spring
Young shoots spruce up dressed 
In their verdant green
Radiant in resplendent colours
Daubed and splashed on flowers
The crisp in the air heralds
The newness all around
Birth and rejuvenation
Fresh around straggly ground
***
Summer
With the brashness of youthful demeanor 
Hot blooded and bold paramour
The heat of the virile kiss
Vigorously vaporizes to mist
Sultry wind torridly blow
Raising dust high and low
Dazzling throughout the fierce day
The heart thirsts for calming ways
***
The Rains
The pregnant clouds cluster the sky 
Quenching the parched by and by
Showering love passionately
Carried by the wind sublimely
The trials and hurdles
Wash away in puddles
Clap of thunder frowns
Frivolity perkiness drowns
***
Autumn
Yellow russet and brown 
Frame its mature crown
Wisdom paves the way for sure
Immune to volatile overtures
Realizing that the end is near
Awaits the future without fear
One by one they fall and tear
Settles down shorn and bare
***
Winter
The processes become drear and slow
Stillness wrapped shrouds blow 
Stark barren their pallor darkens
Gnarled gaunt bent and weakened
The frozen cold overpowers
Snow frost and ice covers
The Icy Hand lays bare
Hibernation hints and dares.
