Listen To The Wind

“The serenading wind whispers the song of emotions
the rhythm of the longing heart listens to articulate” – By Poet


The sunburst sky sprays surreal spectrum 
on the dew diadem of emerald meadow.  
Floral colors compose spring symphony
floating on the cadenced flow of joyous zephyr. 

The wind entices me with blissful tune, 
as the argentine moonbeam suffuses me 
with the gorgeous gleam of  pristine passion.
The cascading cadence of zephyr concerto 
drifting from the harmonic plateau of delight,
makes melodic ripples in my heart’s lilac lake,
pulsating with eclectic pace of ecstasy.

I then feel the wondrous southern wind waft 
with your scintillating scent to allure me 
to the amorous ambience of your grace.
Its silver sequins swing with the refrain
of the mesmeric moonbeam melody,  
resonating with the echo of rapture 
of the timeless sonata of your spring,
I long to hear when I listen to the wind.

The spring wind

The misty mask of winter ambience melts away, 
turning the sky into a cobalt cauldron,
from where the ambrosia of spring descends 
with sequined aura through the diaphanous air.
Gossamer clouds gorgeously embroidered
with the wispy ribbons of regal robe appear.

The sunburst sky sprays surreal spectrum 
on the dew-crowned emerald meadow. 
On the cadenced flow of joyous zephyr 
floral fragrance finds the aromatic course, 
trails the beguiled butterflies flittering 
in the rhythmic waves of spring symphony.

The serenading wind entices me with blissful tune, 
argentine moonbeam suffuses me with gracious gleam. 
The cascading cadence of the concerto of zephyr, 
drifting from the harmonic plateau of exultation,
makes ripples of melody in the lilac lake of my heart,
pulsating with the eclectic pace of endless ecstasy.

I then feel the wondrous southern wind wafts 
with your scintillating scent to allure me 
to the amorous ambience of your grace.
Its silver sequins swing with the refrain
of the mesmeric moonbeam melody,  
resonating with the echo of rapture 
of your spring’s timeless sonata, I love
when I listen to the wind.

A Checklist for 'My Day'

Sunshine soul resonating joyful vibrations
In a key of kindness, modulated by mirth,
With chords of joy, arranged in light,
And a symphony of smiles—
I approach my day.

Laughter echoes and resonates warmth,
In a cadence of contentment.
My soul is tuned to joy, lilting with laughter
And soft choruses of delight.
I welcome my day.

Serenity in symphony with bliss
In cascades of jubilant chorus
Of modulated merriment, cadenced glee
And overtures of ecstasy
I receive my day

Raptures rhapsody infused by zest
In a hush, a solaced timbre sings
An aria of elation, euphony in rapture
And harmony of heart
I embrace my day

Sky Of Silence

The titular template 
of lyrical loneliness,
serenading spaced out 
the upbeat ethereal 
mystique melody
of dreams cadenced 
with rhythmic quietude,
invigorated by
the rhapsody of
the million idyllic steps 
I walk, 
setting free 
the hesitating heart
that quivers with 
the wilderness willows,
the concrete contours  
of inflexible essence
repudiate intractably
the catharsis reprisal,
I find a placating place 
at the serene edge 
of the stalled time,
sense sedated
by the sound of silence.

All the dreams 
blaze to emotive ember 
in memory inferno,
swathed by the ashes
I breathe besieged 
the smoky past,
whisper hollow words 
to the amorphous air,
for I have nothing 
more to say,
and silently float 
in the sky of nothingness
with splintered awareness,
the sulking space between 
the slices of soul,
where frail feelings 
get frozen,
the lattice of desolation 
is configured
with the shards of 
shapeless desire, 
turning to illusive images,
as they soar 
to void oblivion
in the solemn sky of
silence…

Get Ready

With dense mist adrift you dance cadenced slow,
amid your steps my stalled heart beats return.
Out of sight, you shape in me your shadow.

When from chilled horizon northern winds blow,
frozen cloud clumps spread dark shroud on spent sun,
with dense mist adrift you dance cadenced slow.

Now you saunter in my sunshine meadow,
in my hued dream to an angel you turn,
out of sight, you shape in me your shadow.

The spurt of your luring scent I follow,
your elusive trail I won’t stop to yearn. 
With dense mist adrift you dance cadenced slow.

The sunburst sky makes my craving mind glow,
you stoke my fiery passion where I burn.
Out of sight, you shape in me your shadow.

In twilight I cross life’s landscape fallow,
the pain of longing heart you can’t discern.
With dense mist adrift you dance cadenced slow,
out of sight, you shape in me your shadow.

Sunset Song

In the dwindling day at the edge of twilight
the halcyon horizon blushes in delicate delight,
as the sunset colors spin the astral strands thin
in the formless fleet of cloud turning to violin.
 
After the sky-scan it’s time for the birds to return
to their nest riding the radiant rays they yearn.
They glide graciously on the outspread wide wings
over the cadenced clouds of the sonorous strings.

The mystique melody seeps slow within me deep,
as the sunset song puts me into serenading sleep.

At the edge of tinged dusk after the flight of the day,
the crimson sun sips the sea before slipping away,
and dissolves its colors in the water tossing free,
hues from horizon to the satin shore the tides carry.

With sparkling streaks the waves rise and fall gaily,
on the beach after they break the pearls roll calmly. 
The dancing chromatic arms of embrace they fling,
amorous music of sunset colors in the air I hear ring.

The mystique melody seeps slow within me deep,
as the sunset song puts me into serenading sleep.

Follow Me

The cascading stream leaps skyward in swirling ebullience, 
the dancing shadows of serenading trees sway entranced. 
The dainty dewdrops draping the glinting grass tips, 
weave splendored tapestry for me to lie on dreams. 

The drizzling dust of the descending moonbeam drifts 
through the mesmeric aura of the silken sapphire night, 
adorns the pearl-laced waves of the rolling sea,  
where I saunter in search of my muse so elusive. 

Up above the majestic mountain’s supine slope, 
stands the sun-soaked summit of ecstasy, I climb. 
Down the verdant valley’s curved spine smoothly carved, 
winds the emerald pathway on the pictorial plateau I tread.

The rain-washed sky sparkles with the shine of sequins, 
sequestered by the spectrum of my dormant dreams,
paints the chromatic rainbow arc that beckons me 
to seek out my ingrained imagination concealed. 

Turning emotions into wings of creative craving,
I fly in the cadenced air across the sky of fantasy
to all these delightful places in the realm of afflatus waiting. 
To float on its fervent rhythm, feel lyrical vibes, follow me.

Clouds

Clumps of cotton cloud stay
Calm as they change shape carved
Climb high from horizon
Cruising cavalcade in
Cobalt sea of silk sky
Charmed by rippling breeze tune
Cadenced clouds dance drifting

Rhythm

Reveled in love lyric
Rosy pink heart pulsates
Resonates tune of life
Revolves around beauty
Resplendent pattern beats
Rides cadenced waves of joy
Rolls on dancing soul sea

When Doves Cry

Over obscure wasteland cloud hovered unmelted, 
the desert deprived of tuneful rain languished
until you arrived with the whistling breeze,
the oasis resonated in the ripples of lacustrine symphony.

Cadenced joy cascaded in deranged depression,
in the dwindling dunes fervent flowers bloomed.
In sensuous tune the vibrant sky’s spectrum dissolved, 
the harmonic hues of twilight gleamed your grandeur. 

For me lost in the desert of desolation,
searching for missing passion in migrant mirage,
within the abandoned channel meandering indolent,
the murmur of your music echoed in yearning flow.

The melodic flight ended with the folding of wings
in the nest of memory weaved with strings of sonata,
ringing the whisper of the departing zephyr,
turning into the sound of music when doves cry.

Lyric

“The rhythmic beauty of togetherness doesn’t fade for love is lyrical” -  By Poet

My time is made of many happy hours,
when you give me a glinting prism of glass.
I split the sun spectrum in vivgyor colors
for your dainty face the dawning rays to flush.

In the facetted mirror on your enticing face,
the alluring motif of yearning comes in my view.
Your sweet smile laces your innate grace,
enwraps my heart, and I always find it new.

The lustrous lens of my longing I find magnify
the window of your heart for the butterflies
to enter, and with my ardor they merrily fly
with my love in languishing disguise.

My radiant lens of fervor focuses sharply you 
onto my entranced eyes, I’m lost in reverie,
see your face gleam all the time anew,
painted on the canvas of my memory.

The music of my heart you’ll hear pass you by,
serenading in joy when with you I’m close.
The nightingale of emotion will fly in your sky
with the cadenced lyric of love I’ll compose.

Sunrise At the Beach

soft wishes, tender
air wistful, simmering hope
cadenced tears, falling

A Gorgeous Gift

"Nature always wears the colors of the spirit." Ralph Waldo Emerson


From the flaming sunburst horizon ascends dawn,
flimsy clouds of golden filament glide slowly by,
spectrum of color on the sea canvas they smear,
silver crested waves create gem strings on the shore.

The sparkling stream cascades in the emerald valley, 
carves in rocks mystique motifs of surreal architecture,
polished pebbles rolling in the rhythm of waltzing water,
listen to the music of the rustling leaves floating in air.

On the verdant forest canopy the cerulean sky shines,
the trees swaying in zephyr make light and shade lattice,
sapphire night sprinkles silent stardust on the thicket,
fireflies flicker with the cadenced chirp of cricket.

Pristine nature’s charming show lifts up the sagging spirit,
in stream of supernal euphoria the boundless essence flows. 
The supreme creator has given the mankind a gorgeous gift,
its grandeur has be preserved as a treasure for the future.

The Lost Realm of Rhyme

the sounds of a world which once rang
with the magical rhythms of rhyme
from sheep being shorn of wool
to remedies given by the spoonful

magic lie in the ticking of clocks
nonsensical like hickory-dickory-dock
sugar coating the process of learning
lessons came with a cadenced adorning

sailors at work on their ships
sea shanties sprang from their lips
cowpokes alone on the range
clerks counting out the small change

uncrowned royalty without retinue
pouring forth all the things which they knew
beauty came with words which were said
as if laughter and precision had wed

abandon in the scramble for time
the long lost realm of rhyme
