Drunk wispy clouds keep falling over the blue tarmac Refusing to take off And make way for a sun too shy to show itself
White Sea gulls tear warm winds apart Flocks aimlessly meander along curves of the green isthmus
Toes of rocks along the shore Play with bedsheets of ocean waves Pulling and pushing layers of shallow blue waters
Our sky is an open air theatre Where two kites chase each other’s tail Dive deep and soar high Overflow with dizzying adrenaline While an old faithful sail on a fishing boat Bogged down, tied to the command of ocean winds Envies the freedom Held by two fragile pieces of paper
Act 2
First three stars peek through purple curtain of sky It is a cue for the Sun To abandon it’s shyness and take a dip Before tucking itself in seabed He admires his reflection for a bit before Waves break it apart into million glistening yellow diamonds Shining, scattered over an orange ocean carpet
Sea gulls perch on rocks covered in seaweed Sharing epic stories of victories and despair Un-ashamed, in a loud communion
A lighthouse far in the distance It’s bright eyes pierce an ever-growing darkness Resolutely, dutifully Guide the clueless in search of shore Towering above fishing vessels docked by the bay Our sky is a painter’s palette Getting muddier with each dip of the brush Before an artist gives up
Act 3
Gentle clouds cradle an infant moon It’s distilled halo percolates down to wet beach sand One light wave at a time
Sea is in a trance Oscillating between extremes of anarchy and tranquility Hiding in it’s depths the worst of pains And mountains of hope
A fog laminates the seascape Pulling up a curtain over naked chores of nature For she has done enough for the day Bathing in it’s own grandeur Advertising itself to whole existence
Summer constellations peek over emerald green mangroves Mythical heroes and queens come to life Ready to command armies of bears and bulls Summon dragons and centaurs Ride chariots along the milky way Before a truce is called again And everyone slips into a slumber with Lyres played in background
Our sky is an open air theatre That mirrors itself in your dark eyes And a whole cosmos of imagineered tales Takes over mind's stage When the curtains fall.
