Reminiscence

 

The stars that twinkle on a moonless night

Longing for its serene radiance

Yet flickering bright

 

Drops of rain that trickle down a leafy stem

Long after the rains have gone

Yet reminiscing them

 

The waves that crash, kissing the shore

Pulling away instantly

Yet returning evermore

 

A rose once ambrosial, full of fragrance

Tucked amongst pages

A distance recall of evanescence

 

A love long lost, but without regrets

The heart cherishes its memories

And its sweet secrets!

The yearning

 

The carpeted Earth

Oh, so beautiful

Lushness of viridity

A sight so bountiful

Drops of dew

Glistening in the morning light

Like pearls and diamonds

Shining bright

 

 

The vista calls on to me

Like a beloved beckons her beau

Oh, how I yearn for the verdant outdoors

Far, far away from the urbanized electric glow!

Everything in my stride

I cry, I crib

When faced with the unfavourable

Sometimes all I do is write it down and squib

 

When life throws a predicament

And demands an act

I put in all of my efforts for the best precipitant

Often times I pray

When life gets tougher

For all of the hitches to simply go away

 

But then I realize

That existence is no smooth ride

And with no anomalies it simply wouldn’t materialize

 

So, I take on everything in my stride

For what would a lifetime be

If all spiritless and over simplified!
