A Day Off
Planned for a month for a day outPlanned of a place,
Planned of another,
But nothing made my heart overwhelm,
Neither the movie nor the fair.
I chose the seaside...
I chose the Marina...
I chose the sandy beach...for its exotic pleasure.
I sat at the shore
Watched the waves roar
I let my fantasy to rule over
I imagined the sea for a bride
Who rushes to touch her lover - the land
Bringing every time some rare stunning shells
I admired the love of the bride
But loathed the land's desire
For sending his bride every time
To seek something or another.
A distant horn from an ice-cream parlour
Made me wake from my dreams
Mind thronging with the day's pleasures
I stood to leave,
Biding farewell to the waves.

That is an excellent post, Viji. I did not know that you had a poet hidden in you. You surprise me and impress me like hell. Blogging and social networking is so powerful! In fact, more powerful than the family and working together, I think. I can feel an intimacy and respect for you more than I have felt at work!
Great work! Keep it up!
Bhoo
y thanks bhoo..that's wonderful. especially coming from a pro.
Viji
Viji.. This is simply fantabulous.
I thought of doing dissection. but I cant.Even I saw myself on the same sea shore.
Simple,yet powerful.Short,yet a lifetime
Way to go Viji.
If I were the Ice Cream Parlor Vendor guy, what would you do to me?
Keep it up.Show more to the world.

Thanks Padamesh... if you're were that ice cream parlour guy. I would have thanked you for waking me up from my dreams..u know dreams are happy till they continue.. the moment u wake up there are so many things that need our attention, whether we like it or not. Life is not just the path of roses.. while dreams are. I never fret to tread the path of thorns to reach my goal.
