Ominous clouds in the cosmos had forgotten to shower droplets of transparent rain,
Colossal deserts refrained from forming whirlpools of sand; with the blowing wind,
Swirling waters of the boundless ocean; didn't culminate into escalating waves,
Bedsheets of white snow on the mountain slopes; incorrigibly refused to melt,
Scores of boisterous birds nestled on towering treetops; shut their beaks tight even
as the lion came,
Incongruous stones didn't produce the slightest of noise; when they collided with obdurate earth,
Gargantuan reptiles wandering through meadows of tranquil grass; refrained from devouring succulent prey,
Unruly dogs on the street; didn't erupt into volleys of hoarse barking,
Blossoming lotus in the pond; didn't show signs of shriveling at the onset of evanescent dusk,
Battalions of venomous mosquitoes; seemed to have temporarily lost their acrimonious sting,
Fountains of blistering lava; circulated blissfully within the crevices of earth instead of fulminating,
Waterfalls of crystal foam froze midway down the slopes; with their thunderous gurgling now transformed into stony silence,
Dense foliage of tree leaves refused to rustle; with mighty draughts of afternoon wind,
Opalescent butterflies in the garden; ceased to vivaciously flutter,
Silver crested dolphins in the pool; refrained to acrobatically somersault high towards the ceiling,
Mischievous monkeys didn't swing between trees; entwined their long tails placidly amidst the branches,
Long legged spiders refused to traverse across their periphery of intricately suspended silver cobwebs,
Time seemed to have stopped momentarily; with every second unwinding refraining to unleash into a minute further,
The entity of omnipotent God loomed large in my palms; now submerging my impoverished persona into waves of supreme exultation,
It was no miracle folks; I was overwhelmingly proud to declare that I had become a father; even as the first wails of my newly born child blended with the atmosphere.
