Malvan Beach Imagery Deciphered

3rd march2012, by: Sashi Prabhu (zeauoxian) Form: rhyming couplets Sandy tracks, still and dormant, lie await for us, Virgin sands of Malvan beach, its breeze my body salty caress. Through the grooves of coconut palms swaying tall, We trudge to the sandy shores backpack and all. Green thatched leaves. Crowns of glory, shade it extorts, Swinging hammock to nest me in my denim blues shorts. A strong breeze blows saline pelagic scented odor across, Blue waves melt to foam, kiss shores, hued shells emboss. Lonely eagle soar virgin blue skies, More of the brood join in and glide past fishing boats floating by. A murder of crows feast on our eaten table, As in the warm waters we dip, the crows our food they garble. The waves sound gushing rhapsody repeat, Us jovious beach bums in water enjoy the sunny heat. Dry fishing boats on logs they are on the sands to park, Lie along akin, like silent serpents, waiting for dusk to embark. Sea gulls they glide over silver wavy waters, Food seeking dives perform, for them that’s what matters. A pack of dogs they frolic with glee, As the fisher folk heave coir ropes dogs from there flee. Golden sunlight darts out of stagnant clouds formless, Group of lads, beach volley ball they play tireless As I sit ten meters away from wet sandy shores, Melody erupts as waves repeat encore.

A wondrous type of hike on this pristine beach! Have you ever studied the archeological findings of this region from the Medieval Period..the animals that inhabited the beach back then and the types of earthenware that were excavated? If you like Indiana Jones type reading, you should do some research..Enjoyed your poem. Gwendolen
