Lovers Corner

Not a  secret   to   unravel   but  a  feeling   to   experience;
"Pointe D'amour", I  stand   alone   here, a mesmerised  being.
The  white   warm   sand  sinks  discreetly   under  my  naked  toes
As  the  fine  grains  ooze   in   between,  awakening  my  senses.
My  hungry  eyes  take   its   first  sips of  merging  of colours;
Green  hues  with  the  white   expanse  extending  afar   and  
Inclining towards the  crystal   clear   blue   stretched   lagoon,
All   held   under  the  indulgent gaze  of the lapis lazuli  sky.
My  soul  glows  in   immense   sense  of  well   being   in   tranquility  
That  reigns,  while   in   contrast  my  sleeping  emotions are 
Dragged  out  of  slumber  uncoiling  lazily   to  a  crescendo, 
To   match  the  violently   lashing   waves   crashing   incessantly  
Against  the  giant  reef  in   calm   water:  held  vigil  since   eternity.
Birds' aubade  mock  my  intrusion   in  this nature's  secluded  corner,
Only   meant   for  lovers,  to   explore   each   other   in   secret,  
Enjoying the  ecstasy  of  climax   in  such  enchanted   panorama.

Thanks for the nice comment. This place is in the west of our island and called Pte D'amour, in a remote part. Not been there since some times and I don't know what climate changes has done to it...But we have such lovely places in many places of the island. :D Sunita

Tremendous imagery, this is one corner I wouldn't mind being backed into.

I particularly like the the part where you're talking about dragging out your sleeping emotions. I also love all of the colors. Very vivid! Enjoyed this read, Sunita.
