Blanc

Oh did you hear the night whispering about the dark?
Oh did you hear the leaves shushing the wind?
The dark grass bends and sways to greet the passing waters.
Grass O lovely grass, sing and play, as that what smiles a vague smile to you waves you a greeting or a farewell; that which weaves a new story for you every new second.
Lay there O watching bird in the womb of the wise tree; don't you talk to the grass, don't you hum to it when it craddles the baby dew drops.
Oh did you hear the cricket longing for it's mate, crying far away into the blossoming wind?
Oh did you hear the woes of the charming flowers tucked amidst the shadows of the moon?
Speak to the darkness O merciful, toss forth a glimmer of your preciousness
Swim, swat your tail-left and right-dance the belly dancers dance O tiny fish
Write a story of your passing moments, your embraces with newer worlds
as you course through blank ink, through an unseen, unheard, unwritten story
Oh did you hear the wolves crying, lonliness clamoring in their cries?
Oh did you hear the winds howl, tinge of curiosity in its voice?
Bark O thunder, let the sprinkles of rain pacify you.
Let the rain answer the monotonous praying of the forlorn toad..
Wash away everything O rain, gather the past in your arms and wade forth..
Return again only with glad tidings; when the flowers ask for you with sprawled arms- to douse their happiness...

A magical night

Streaks of silver descend to illuminate the waters below.
The enigmatic waters giggle playfully,
 riding shyly on the back of timid ripples.
The pearls hugging the ocean’s heart awaken from their deep sleep,
now dancing elegantly with every beat.
The accursed moon brushes aside every passing tuft of cloud stealing a fleeting glimpse of the breathtaking beauty below.
The ocean prays for respite from the prying eyes in the skies,
Whispers a gentle breeze, hums an intoxicating tune.
Love glazed rose-petals dance, twirl, and kiss the quivering lips of the moon and the ocean.
The skies and the stars witness an unprecedented affair- two souls in courtship.
What magnificence; everything between the heavens and the earth transmute into an ethereal beauty.
The admirer tumbles in drunkenness yet gazes upon in an unbreakable gaze,
It beseeches the skies to set it free; to unite with its love for once truly.
The ocean breathes in haste-what turmoil in the depth of those waters.
Misty eyes cast a glance above with the restless yearning to hold the beloved silver.
The moon speaks; spells its heart’s desire across silver linings from a million miles,
Draws closer the inevitable into a musk smothered embrace
A blissful world it slides unto, resting on a tussock of silken pillow, dreaming a dream, smiling a smile,
 As the ocean watches lovingly, dreaming a dream, smiling a smile.
