OCEAN EYES

Walking all night
Upon the wave-kissed sands of the seashore,
Beneath the twinkling stars,

Through the silvery aerial veil
Of a waning moon,

Until the sun began to rise
From the lap of distant crimson waves,

Ascending
Into the enchanted sky,
Strewn with purple clouds.

The ocean halts,
Transforming into a mirror

To reflect the colours of dawn
Across its wine-red waves

The sun becomes a pupil
Within the indigo eye of dawn.

The sea seems like a lower lash,
The sky the upper one,
Adorned with scattered hued clouds.

Sublime!

Perhaps a glimpse of the Big Bang...
Or a corner of Heaven...
Eternity in every moment...!!
