Sands of Time

Closing her eyes, she reminisced

Look back on moments thought buried

Like waves pushing through the little holes

Little crabs of memories scurrying along the shore

The scorching sand between her feet

Nape covered with then heated kisses

The wind swaying by, creating wordless whispers

Sweet nothings murmured into the ear

The unending laughter, strange noises washing over 

Like the clamour, the anticipation to touch the peak

The sudden pull of the motor boat reminiscent

Of the little gasp, the moan, satusfsctuon tided over

The breeze caressing me now

As once fingers entwined the locks

Footprints on sand washed away in a moment

Imprinted forever, grooves in the heart.

Starfish

The sun's setTwas a pretty dayOn the shoreFar, far awayA lil starfishOn the sand layWaiting for wavesTo take it awayAlong came footstepsHappy and gayStopping suddenlyWent, "Oh, say!"Looked at the fishHummed into the bayLifted it high upThrew it awayWhistling a tuneInto the sky greyThe footsteps thenContinued on the wayDeep in the watersThe starfish swayedSending up a prayerFor living another day.

Future

Let goThe inhibitionsShackles bonding youThe night stretches longBoundless the day continuesSerrated edgesSluicing dreamsEyelids heavy with anticipationTomorrow for promisesTonight Just dream onIt's never too lateLush pastures beckonBright sunScorching soulsMind burning with desireTame the spirit notNowDon't hold backSculpt the presentCleave wrathSheath diffidenceTwirling fingers snare the futureRide the waveFlow onHypnotise the bygonesLull fear into an abyssOver peaks of determinationClamber on.

That Nameless Feeling

It's strange
The way it creeps upon you
Silently during the day
Violently in the dead of the night
It slowly grows
Watered by the distance
Tended by the heart
You try to run away
But it is your shadow, 
Chasing you everywhere
The friend you never had
The foe bringing out the best in you
You have no name for it
For words never do it justice
Flustered yet exultant 
Emotions, a riot within you
The beast never to be tamed
The beauty beholden in the eyes
For it is sheer insanity
That nameless ecstasy
Which the world calls love.

December Rains

It never rains in December
But is there a time for memories to drench?
For skies to cry their fears through
And awaken to a bright new day?
 
It never rains in December
But is there a reason for your heart to beat?
For thunder to sing its woes pitiful
And return to a fitful short slumber?

It never rains in December
But is there a time for happiness to shine through?
For lighting to brighten darkened eyes
And mesmerise a newly hopeful you?

It never rains in December
But the smell of wet earth teaches otherwise

Stealing a smile from your lips

Making you dream for some more time

It never rains in December

But the vagaries of nature the heart knows not

Skipping with joy it feels the cool breeze

Stretches it's arms to hold the little drops

It never rains in December

But the starry skies make way for clouds

Awakening the dreamers, soothing souls

Who says, it never rains in December?
