Gaze of Retrieval

Gentle breeze is perplexing the mango leaves - 
In curtaining me from raising rays,
Dawning sun is pricking my slumber peeves.
The wooden box struck my tilting gaze.

I longed to have it in my childhood time,
Remain now as a mortal legacy unused.
I inherited it on my grandma’s parting time,
Since then, it remains the place untouched.

Dragged it down and wiped the dust,
I opened it with a cracking sound.
Coloured woolen yarns filled the chest, 
I started to knit with the needle in pound. 

Everything was same as old,
The time I got is a treasure of gold.
