Moving on
Sunny days
Cool raindrops
Gentle breezes and sweet scents along the way...
Little gestures that sweeten the moments
The time we do not go anywhere
But simply pause in our tracks
To feel the warmth of our loving connections
Intricacies of a tiny conch-shell
It's patterned perfection
Feeling of kinship
As we both wait on the sea-shore
The moments when broken
Cannot be put back again
Like Humpty Dumpty
Quiet moments, flowers bloom on the stems
Stars shine in the sky
Unclouded by greed and jealously
The arms that pull us
Hug and hold us away
Disquieting moments
Life is a process of growth and decay
and cannot help it
No purpose being impolite and disrespectful
We experience yearnings, hopes and desire
to move on.
