Take me Samantha
I beg you,
to your flourishing abode
within the idyllic shores of
Barbados.
To the smoothened sands
of the placid beaches of
Bathsheba, for our
deep romantic adventure
and ecstatic surfing.
A split second with you
in the land of the flying fish,
would no doubt be a lifetime
to remember.
As we bask beneath the caribbean sun,
amidst the pride of Barbados,
with a flourish, your smile would
usher me deeper into your world.

The moderate warmth,
and its attendant
humid air,
rising mild temperatures
on smoothened sands.
Tilting towards the warm
showers of the tropical sun,
and basking on the tranquil
beach, I enjoy a sunbath.
With my sunscreen lotion,
applied gently on my soft
and beautifully tanned
Scandinavian skin,
I warm up for the
forthcoming global annual
beauty competition
in the land of the flying
fish.

Tossed deep in the ocean was your broken heart
Picking up the pieces, refining each part
Of yourself. Thrown, wacked, hurled and caught by the waves
Floating, passing by, not needing to be saved
Your mended heart polished through an ocean grave
Coming from man, perfected only by nature
You are my blessing, with nothing else greater
You thought meeting another was unlikely
And then we met as you surfaced politely
Resemblance of a rare gem shining brightly
Frosty appearance from love's weather before
Your edges smoothened, beautiful to the core
Your exciting presence was clearly defined
Your character beamed with love for me so kind
You are my oceanic gem, hard to find
You're the end product, our love is forever
Imperfectly perfect due to love's weather
Your unique presence in my life became rife.
Thanks my husband for complementing my life
You are my sea glass. I am your gleeful wife

I always did fantasize about our diverse earth;
Its freezing stones in the fridges of the Arctic and Antarctic landscapes.
The idyllic playgrounds on the quiet sands of the Mediterranean Sea banks,
The amazing sun baked plains of the smoothened Sahara brown,
The tropical Haven of humid air, where the golden sun awakes in a fair and bright morning, and sets at even with its magnificent crimson smile.
What a cozy feeling can its temperate climes bring; with its sheer abundance of Clement weather.
A paradise indeed of ambient mildness.
I long for the warm gardens of Eden’s residues, with their ebullient and lush tropical green.
How pleasant it would be to cascade down the many waterfalls in an imaginary and wonderland fashion.
To go atop the zenith of each mountainous heaven from which pinnacle point you have the panoramic view of your own vanquished plains.
I once disappeared into the wind, in a midsummer night’s dream to see my global fantasies come true.
And like a boisterous eagle,
I glided high to the heavens for this global and utterly delightful bird’s eye view.

The one who dipped his hands in the till
Adventurist misdemeanour discovered
That waywardness create no anxiety
We smoothened ruffled feathers
We found our mind and heart tranquil
To be truthful we surprised ourself
But why not forgive and forget
Love is God’s healing elixir

sometimes it so happens
love knocks on icy hearts
and is cold shouldered
in timeless time jagged rocks
are smoothened by the river’s flow
love employs no force
unconscious souls
yet rooted in animal nature
appear cloaked in human form
the indwelling spirit
is the same within all
only coordinates differ
there’s neither judgment nor shame
the sunlight continues to stream
on all life without prejudice

I don't know how it happened
I tried to fight it
It was too powerful to resist
So sudden to even think of it
I felt the force
That was so powerful
My feet dragged
Unintentionally your lips smoothened
So sorry if you feel harassed
It was not on purpose
But I should admit it was so warm
I hope you felt it too
Did you feel the pulse -heartstrings?
Did you look into my eyes -the stories?
Did you feel the warmth -a kindled fire?
You think it's a child play -no frolic game
Step forward and close your eyes
It is a sign of yes
Lean forward I can't let you down
In these arms, can't you feel at home?

reviving rusts revamping
frolic feigning feasts
damped desires drooping
mystic mists moaning
puked passion plying
tactic tier tucking
sour scrunched smoothened
pleasant parks heightened
dark dances darkened
fiery flames simpering
mocking mystic mists
towering; twigs twisting
archaic aura blending
brooding base bleeding.

taming torpedic tongue

scrunched syllables smoothened

scared surges skipping
smithereens into span
contracted turbulent trance
vile vibed passion
inflected per punctures
birthed by seizures
damped draws drooping
growling gaunt gaiety
lanky lust lurching
ensconced eyes envisaged
weary lids wakes.

What if all hope was lost
The frightened child never comforted
The desperate suicidal teen toes gripped on the riverbank
Broken splintered lives eager for the end
i look deep into the abyss as it falls into me
No one knows i have no hope
I walk amongst the dead shadows
My pretence on my face
Inside upon a smoothened rock
Spot light from above
crushed and withered
hope crumbles and carried on the wind
is gone

To town,
from town.
Clay patta,
saffron civara.
Smoothened walking stick,
the companion of the unlonely
alone.
Downhill,
uphill.
Through clouds,
through fog.
Soles worn,
robes tattered.
Wake, rise...
Weary, rest...
This flesh, in truth,
the begging bowl
we each were issued.

My tenant body constitutes a lease,
A rented fabric owed to landlord Time,
From smoothened silk to wrinkled leather’s crease,
This shuttled thread is bound in deed to grime.
My mind he stakes a vested interest in,
Its vibrancy is forced perforce to fade,
The stain of Lethe’s dull oblivion
Shall wash and sink this mind in murky shades.
Immortal dyes Arachne used to draw,
(While mortals die unraveled, naked, sheared)
Her strings contested Nature’s with their awe,
Art’s golden wool outwears the looming Weirds.
This trunk of life is tailored for a fashion,
Yet timeless wove is art’s transcendent passion.
