Like the waters, the waves
People meet
And retreat
There are moments
We flow, to be heard
Moments we ebb
To be in our silent cocoons
Or coil ourselves as a pond
In an uninhabited forest…
A silent lake
Gushing river
Or the turbulent floods
Every mood of the water
Some day
Blends with the eternal Sea
The ebb and flow of our emotions
Eloquent through the countless drops
Of the mighty liquid vastness…
There! the ruby-red, purple, and the azure blue wings
Of the quivering kites
Watch the waves rise, and fall
Synonymous to the human joys, and sorrows
The warm golden sand
Tattooed with footprints
Can never tell us
Of the weight of journeys
For
All the yesterdays are trampled
By a new today
And all the footprints
Left today
Are tomorrow’s erased illustration
Of life’s fleeting moments…
Through the several hues of kites
Dancing in the wind
The crimson sun’s smile searches
If there are any heart-prints
Upon the sands of time

Among those fragments of the universe
Bordering the shore
Some solitary
Some in groups, under an insignificant umbrella
While the wide Sky is sheltering…
The wind whispers its favourite poem
Fragrant with the scents of joy
The balloons, the birds, the whiff of the roasted corn
The laughter in multicolored voices
Everything frozen into time
To become a breathing moment framed
by the eyes
Captured into timeless locales for the seeking souls
Also Read: Strange Beauty
Engraving a beautiful reminder
Life’s meanings flow through simple, yet uplifting composition of moments
When art unfolds from an intangible womb of an artist
And all that life asks of us
Is the willingness to see, sink, blend, and become…
