The Sea Can'T Wash Away
Relentless yearning for the edge of the horizon
where the nascent sun unveils the demure dawn,
brings me across million miles of dreaming detour
to the cyan sea shining with tinge of fervent allure.
I stand whelmed at the periphery of primal vastness,
its boundless joy dancing on crests of surging waves,
spreads tapestry of pearls for me on the supine shore,
returns flowing free to fathomless serenity of oblivion.
The embrace of silver sheet swashes your footprints,
as waves sing to the moonbeam ballet of blue night
I search my mermaid floating away on stardust trail
and set sail on serenading winds to where my heart is.
A rolling pebble tossing alone on the tides of time
I’m not spent yet, submerged in rapture of reverie.
Through my fingers I don’t let the golden sands slip
for I build a palace for you, the sea can’t wash away.
