The Cycle

Came Dawn,
The golden light, so incipient
Brought in hope:
Hope, that a day better, will follow;
Hope, that a dream new, will be fulfilled;
Hope, that a person near, will be met.

Came Hope,
The golden light, so inchoate
Brought in happiness:
Happiness, that a job thought, will be done;
Happiness, that a wish sincere, will be granted;
Happiness, that a person dear, will be met.

Came Happiness,
The golden light, so ineffable
Brought in smiles:
Smiles, that are ubiquitous;
Smiles, so very unceasing;
Smiles, that a person, my own, will be met.

Came Dusk,
The golden light, now fading
Brought in gloom:
Gloom, that the day, better could have been;
Gloom, that the dream, better could have been fulfilled;
Gloom, that the person near, will be going away.

But, came Gloom,
The golden light, again flickered bright,
Brought in hope:
Hope, that a new dawn will follow;
Hope, that new hope will arise;
Hope, that the person dear, will be met again.

And, came Hope,
The golden light, now bright,
Brought in wishes:
Wishes, that the dawn next might come soon;
Wishes, that the person dear might be all right;
Wishes, that I'll meet the person, my own, again tomorrow.

For that, is human nature!

Mesmerised

When i look at the stars in the sky,
Shining beadlike amidst the blanket of clouds,
I see you drizzling down in driblets..

When wide I stretch out my hands,
To feel you through the banister,
I sense you gliding between my fingers..

When awed, my eyes follow you down,
Aromatizing the air with petrichor,
I smell the wet earth and see smiles all around..

When I see you dancing all the dances,
Speckling the ground with your gems,
I hear my heart sing along with your rhythm...

When out into your open arms I step,
Your gentle pitter-patter forming a myriad,
I feel myself getting soaked through in you embrace..

When in your embrace I waltz around,
Chutes of joy strike my chords,
And I rejoice as you kiss my tears away...

When I dance in line with you, with little rest between,
Splashing around creating fountains of happy feelings,
I find my heart floating in ether making esctatic notes..

When your embrace opens and we stand hand in hand,
Feeling the connection with the divine,
I find my soul soaring high with a joy galore..
I feel the warmth in the heart to the core..
And I make the wish that this moment always remains in the fore..
