ultramarine sea
    chartreuse waves rolling away
            temple chimes soar high ~

                                                               symphonic bells ring
                                                             reminiscent of seashore
                                                                  calm cadence sublime ~

    sail boats pensive mood
      on amber jade sandy beach
         fishermen to board ~

                                                                  few float in ocean
                                                             in a trance - seductive dream
                                                                      midst celestial blue ~

          mystical sight far
     away waiting grooms for brides
                anticipating ~

                                                                     emerald ocean
                                                                      cerulean waves crashing
                                                                         onto turquoise sand ~

You seem to be a very great artist. Haiku chain too is painted beautifully.

Dear Christuraj, I love writing, singing, and painting. But I started painting only recently. Life was too busy!
