  Let’s enjoy                                                           Photo on Pexels by Jess Loiterton Earth’s silhouette a fusion of zesty and emerald green Dancing turquoise sea water limpid and clean Swaying palm trees on pictorial sandy beach Sun drenched chairs, cool surfers and some happy beings Surrounded by tiny hills, tacked sequins to the scene Draped in billowy clouds, everything looks dream Shade of colourful umbrellas provide chill spot for some Others choose to dive into the blissful waters for relaxation and fun Foamy sea waves hit my body, water trickles off my knees Getting soaked, an adrenaline rush, how cleansed I feel Grabbed a glass of mocktail, so fresh and sweet Brimming with joy, the place nudges me to be at ease The view unreels like a movie scene Sound of crashing water against the jagged rocks gives me peace ...

Spring

  Spring is in the air                                                            Photo on Unsplash by Toa Heftiba    Early sprightly spring wants some thrill S napping at heels with winter’s fading chill Nature rollicking between two seasons Time to smile, the Goldilocks weather one of the reasons Branches slowly getting a new life Flowers searching their petals in sun’s light Mild breeze flirting with trees A perfect time to sow some seeds Birds building nests, tuning to new melody Hiding animals emerge, butterflies fluttery Some run to forests to soak in nature’s splendour Where the new beginnings are in full grandeur Flowers and barbecue smells race to fill the air Earth slowly getting dressed up in a multitude of colour Sky bluer and grass greener Take a leaf from nature, inject glow in life, you’re the painter Spring i...

Reset

We need to reset for a clear mind                                                   Photo by Rob Wingate on Unsplash Staying in a country home With floor-to-ceiling windows Enjoying the perfumed air wafting inside my room Hidden away on a hill Noise unknown People kind, weather chill The panoramic views Immersed in surreal So many colors, brilliant hues Inside, the place is basic Somewhat rustic Outside a lazy pond, some trees dressed, and some naked Not much for the hedonistic crowd An off-grid place Bur incredibly refreshing and I was wowed That time of the calendar When you say goodbye to the year You want to be free and just wander Enveloped in sunrays, I welcome my morning Surrounded by the rawness of nature A reset- an answer to my longing Whistling a song Savoring the moment I bake a cake, time quietly flowing along    

Morning

  Photo by Ray Hennessy on Unsplash Breaking dawn Birds on the lawn Singing songs as if rehearsed in the night Trees busy Shedding leaves swiftly Declaring a change in scene Some pretty flowers still clinging on Bobbing their heads to the summer that's almost gone A new trail of beginnings unfolds Sun's milder  Somewhat kinder The change in weather- oh so refreshing Nature in its flow and cadence Spritzes our life with a new fragrance Wake up and experience the gifts of daylight These morning walkers The buoyant mood of joggers Running and inhaling the nippy air This wonderous  morning rich in quietness Fills me with peace and brightness Bristling with this energy, I carry on with my journey

Know Life

  Live with Elan…                                                     Photo by Duan Mendes on Unsplash C'mon soak in this cosmic play In its entirety just don't delay Pose, wink, and smize- it's your runway                                .    .   . Life beckons you  to feel alive every day Like a potter who shapes his dough of clay Let your style speak for the mood of the day                                   .    .   . Wear your florals, checks, and swirl away Life is a mosaic of designs full of colorways Design a motif that shows a sunray                               ...

Nature's Symphony

Image
                                            Photo by Catherine Kay Greenup on Unsplash The mountain peak and the river serene Yes, I was in heaven the moment I reached The sun was playing hide and seek Redolent with the scent of trees, this place was a retreat The wonderous trails and the waterfall in between The valley was slowly getting revealed A far-off deer grazing in the fields The chirping of various birds was a symphony on repeat The carpet of flowers was a feast for the eyes indeed The visceral joy of being one with nature made me complete A stroke of painting was there to be seen Met a group of monks singing hymns, and some blessings I received
