Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air (Ralph Waldo Emerson) ________________________________________ Cherish the moments, rising on fabric of fuchsia skies, Painting motifs of amber dawn, dipped in golden sunrise, In brushstrokes mauve, tinted pink, on opaline skyline; Where themes heavenly with dreams of morn entwine. Ride path of sun’s trajectory, soak-in aureate sunshine, Be amid nature’s mystery, sky-scapes of mystical design; Rejoice the day, in its prime, revel life’s moments sublime, Before they wither away, falling prey to reign of time. Sail the blue waves, synchronize with rhythms of sea, Undulating with inspiration of tides, vying shores of glee, Ruminating of paradise, afloat on resplendence, carefree; Blissful, hearing robins sing, watching butterflies spree. Be hypnotized, on cusp of twilight, inhale the wild air, Pulsating from hearts of trees as winds westerly blare; Be the moment chiming, strumming tenor of breeze, Snuggling rosy delight, caressing eve’s blush of tease. Extolling arc of crimson horizon, lost in sun’s goodbye, As day-decaying beautifies aura, in shades of magenta dye, Capture the moments blazing fire, ceding to moonlight, Dipping in the ocean, dispersing glimmer of ruby delight.

I’m a sucker for the sea: Sail the blue waves, synchronize with rhythms of sea, Undulating with inspiration of tides, vying shores of glee. Such a lovely write, Vijay!

' Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air. ' I can see myself in this quote. :) Beyond ' sky-scapes of mystical design, ' and ' brushstrokes of pink; moments sublime. ' Your thoughts are beautiful in every way, Vijay. I feel as though I'm floating on clouds on cotton. My heart is smiling. :) Many wonderful blessings to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Vijay, you observe and describe the world as beautiful. In fact, your poem may be better than the real thing! It's pleasant to take it all in as it occurs, and as long as we take part without damaging it for the next person, it's a great thing for us all.

I liked how your poem invited the reader to 'drink in the wild air.' Your imagery was breathtaking and your rhyme scheme flowed so effortlessly taking the reader from what beautiful activity to another. I especially liked: Be the moment chiming, strumming tenor of breeze, Snuggling rosy delight, caressing eve’s blush of tease. Fabulous contest entry...best wishes with the contest...have a great evening, Sara

Dear Vijay, what an artistically delightful write this is. Your poem so eloquently fits the theme of the quote too and flows seamlessly, i love your use of colors to enhance the beauty of nature and time and how Youv expressed throughout the need to seize the moment and live in the moment, appreciating all that which is around, so many lines stood out for me but i love “ Be hypnotized, on cusp of twilight, inhale the wild air,“ soul warming! This is so captivating and gorgeous! Powerful! Fave

Your poem beautifully captures the fleeting yet precious moments of life, painting vivid scenes of nature's wonders and inviting readers to immerse themselves in the beauty of each passing moment. The imagery of "fabric of fuchsia skies" and "amber dawn dipped in golden sunrise" sets a captivating tone, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The use of vibrant colours and poetic language creates a mesmerising atmosphere that transports the reader to a realm where time seems to stand still.
