V. J’s weekly challenge: ” What pulls on your soul?”
Away from the rut of the mundane
as the wandering thoughts settle,
clouds of chaos dissipate
when all the noise is silenced,
I sit alone by the sparkling blue ocean
watching the tidal waves ebb,
soaking me with candid conversations,
washing away my wistful woes.
The nascent rays of dawn
usher in a promise of hope.
I hear their unspoken words.
The sublime sounds of solitude
wrap my soul in a tranquil embrace.
In response to Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge : Post photographs of alphabet words having both r and s.
Lens Artists Photo challenge #122 hosted by Ana
Dark clouds of disappointment looms large
tears get camouflaged in the rains
the sombre sky sings a melancholic tune.
But fret not O mind! For I know
tomorrow, a ray of hope peeps in at dawn
ushering in a promise of a new day
drying the tears and painting the clouds white
as the sun embraces the horizon
the world smiles under its dazzling glow.
First blush of glimmer
bids farewell to dapper night
the crimson skies kiss
Balmy radiance
gently cascades touching life
luminous magic
V.J’s weekly challenge #106 : Touch
In response to sue’s Thursday photo prompt.
The curtains unveil as the
majestic star makes a grand entry
The artistic amalgam of the
blushing crimson and the golden glow
paints a surreal picture
the gentle zephyr hums a celestial melody
awakens the mortals from their reverie
its radiant rays illuminates bright
quells the echoes of the dark mind,
ushers in an euphoria of a new day
showers blessings of hope,
with a promise to bury the sorrows of yesterday
and replace it with new beginnings.
The revolving orb spins around
announces the divine birth of dawn
a tint of scarlet blush emerges
behind the illuminated clouds
the darkness gently surrenders
to its ethereal glow
with a promise of a new day ahead!
In response to weekly photo challenge rise/set
The rising orb spins around
announces the divine birth of dawn
a scarlet blush behind the illuminated clouds
the darkness gently surrenders
to the ethereal glow of the golden rays
with a promise of a new day ahead!
Its time for dusk to enter
the horizon paints bold strokes
vermillion red and marmalade orange
dominate the celestial skies
dark curtains fall across the expanse
readying the stage for the magical moon!
Early dawn enrobed in a misty cloak
letting out a yawn in lazy slumber
under the cool winter breeze
the pale blue waves ebb to the shore
deserted catamarans dance
to the rhythm of the tidal swell.
The horizon readying to welcome
the brightest star in all its glory
beckoning the birds to rise
and play their chirpy melody.
Streaming sunlight casts its rays
the sea turns to a crimson blush
they shimmer in a perfect union
to usher in a glorious day!
I left my friends in their slumber world and trekked along the path. I hadn’t driven miles into nature to miss the beautiful sunrise. I was happy I took that decision, for the sight that welcomed me was surreal. The twilight was fading away to make way for the golden rays of the sun seeping in through the misty landscape. The crimson rays enveloped and caressed the entire panorama with all its love and warmth. The bird’s chirp added a melody to the graceful sway of the dew drops on the leaves. My heart fluttered to the silky touch of the petals dancing in gay abandon in the morning breeze. I watched the meandering butterflies whispering secret messages to the flowers. I sat there in a trance, mesmerised by the magic of the mystical morning. A sense of euphoria engulfed me as I marvelled at the handiwork of nature!
