Waves

My relentless reverie reposed 
on engrossing edge of halcyon horizon,
where the scarlet sun 
unshrouds the demure dawn,
brings me across million miles 
of dreaming detour of trance
to the cyan sea that shines 
with the shades of fervent allure.

I stand overwhelmed looking  
at the periphery of primal vastness,
its boundless joy dancing 
on the crests of surging waves,
make clattering cascade of pearls 
as they crash on the craggy cliff,
and flowing free return reticent 
to the fathomless serenity of silence.

The embrace of the silver sheet 
swathes my fragile foothold,
as the waves beat beguiled 
in the moonbeam ballet of blue night, 
I search for my mesmeric mermaid, 
swimming away on the stardust trail,
and I set sail in the serenading wind 
to where my heart is beyond the sea.
