Flowing streams took a pause
As the shadows gave a fleeting glimpse of him
Fluttering birds turned around
For a delightful welcoming
The blissful sands of the bank
Rejoiced with the gales
As if recognized a familiar footstep
The cerulean sky adorned with rainbows
As he waved his hands.
The winds of fragrance enlaced the pink plumerias
Sharing the secret of the arrival
The forest green bloomed
in moonlight like a mermaid
Or the fluorescence of fireflies
I too stood amazed with Nature
At the transitions around
As if forgotten to wink my eyes.
The four seasons peeped into the forest
With the exuberant hues and vibrance.
I took a stroll down the corridor of seasons
in a mystic trance
The dry and wet foliage sang the song of love
The rustling song of love.
With the star of dawn,
I walked down the moon lit valleys of the last night,
Now a morning stride with the sunshine
Strewn amid trees like an uncut jewel of diamond,
The wind was passing swiftly along side,
walking still amazed at the fleeting glimpse at the stream
And thinking hard for whom the forest
Adorned like a bride.
My eyes opened slowly from a deep sleep
And conscious mind smiled at the surreal dream
But the pink plumerias beside me
Confounding the surreal and real.
