A to Z Challenge – Nature and I


When life gets too overwhelming, just look up at the night sky and lose yourself for a while. – Deborah A Ten Brink
The torrents of emotions created a tempest within me.
I escaped home, to the sea, my refuge
The darkness of the impenetrable sky
the roar of the undulating waves, mirrored my perturbed mind.
With not a soul around, just me
I let the floodgates of incessant tears flow, merging into the salty waters.
The scintillating pregnant moon, appeared from behind the broody clouds,
she looked down at me with a loving smile.
Captivated by her warmth, I felt my tears dry.
Her benign radiance comforted my emotional ripples.
The dazzle of the luminous stars illuminated my heart,
serenading it, to complement the gleaming waters.
I sat there mesmerized beneath the surface of the night
feeling my pain being washed away until,
the promise of a new dawn embraced me, filling me with light!

What an apt poem around the recent full moon.
The full moon energies sometimes can wreck havoc in our souls, but the best part is how beautifully calming its presence can be; cleansing us from the deep, darkness within. Helping as start afresh and anew.
Loved this hopeful piece. Love talking to the moon. 🙂 Took me back to a Pondicherry beach, where the moon appeared with it’s back light; lighting up my heart. :-))

Under the stars lit sky,
we will fly
in the mysterious magic of the night,
when nocturnal creatures unite
for some fun and frolic…
Come and join me for some adventures…
Brilliant poem, Radhika.
