Whispers Of The Wind

The sun is hot

Summer starts

The blue sky is bereft of clouds

But the leaves are dancing in the breeze

The wind blows

Making the curtains dance too

Sometimes you wish

It would rain for a while.

Merry Sound

The sound of the sea echoes

As the wind blows

She loves this,

The pretty conch shell to her ears.

When Silence Speaks

Oftentimes I feel

That you were beside me

Combing seaglass and sea shells.

You thought the beach is the place to be…

A place to watch the seagulls fly.

Old Books

I love old books

The smell of adventures

Discovering places I’ve never been

Dreaming that I could write too

As you do.

And You Dream…Still!

How soon could a dream

take hold in your heart?

How often does a dream

mask the harsh truth of reality?

It may take a while

It may take forever,

But you keep dreaming …still!

It’s In Your Heart

LIFE –

Is wonderful when you are happy

But it pains you sometimes when you are sad.

Life’s surprises don’t always come in dainty packages

Of pink ribbons and lovely boxes

Life’s surprises come sometimes in inopportune moments

Catching you unaware.

You smile with a certain sadness in your eyes

You greet the day

Dragging your steps along the way.

I’m here to listen

When the time comes that you want to share

I’ll be here to make you smile again

and make you believe that life is worthwhile.

Happiness lies in your heart my friend.

And it’s really wonderful to be alive.

Five Lines

I caught a glimpse of you

from some recess of memory

When I woke up, I knew

It was a dream

Still.

(Another repost from 2011, that year when I managed to have 366 posts due to the Post A Day challenge. Most of my followers back then are no longer active now.

Still

 Time drags –

Such endless waiting!

I ask myself when

I’ll ever see you again

Only then will this verse be complete

Only then will I sing my song.

This Moment

I wrote your name in the sand

Only to be erased by the noontide

But the essence remained

When my morning comes,

I’ll write your  name again.

The breeze whispers a gentle sound of “hello”

Calling me, you

Beckoning us to the world beyond

I hear the sea

And I hear you

Calling, calling my name.

I feel your face

And see you smile

While the ripples gently dance at our feet.

I watch your serene countenance,

And nothing moves

Except the breeze and the ripples

We treasure this moment, this minute, this hour

A silence that inspires us

To write our names again in the sand.

Dusk is falling

And the only remnants are our footprints

And the sea calling our names.

Hope

It will come

When you least expect it

Hope is alive!
