The Untitled Lady And The Dreamer In Me!

She kept walking aimlessly on the beach,
Leaving behind footprints of her naked feet,
With every wave that swept to the shore,
Old prints kept being erased,
But she kept walking making new ones.

I was sitting on the rocks bewitched by her,
Was it her innocence or was it her smile,
Was it the aura, was it her energy unseen,
What was it that made me feel mesmerized?
She was an enigmatic persona personified.

She looked up at the sky,
Searching for the shiny face of the sun.
She smiled when she spotted it glowing at her,
She shielded her face with her silky palm.

She turned around and called out for me,
Gesturing with her hands waving in air,
She was asking me to join her by the sea.
I got up from where I sat and ran towards her.

When I got to where she was, she was gone,
She vanished like evaporated thoughts.
And I stood stranded yet smiling by the sea.

Strange are the ways these pictures make me feel,
Hanging on my hall, all neatly nailed and framed.
I look at them yet again,
Trying to connect with the souls entrapped .

It’s the one in the centre, with a lady by the sea,
I am trying to shake myself out of the dream.
She looks like an angel, 
May be in a place that I have never been,
She might be someone else’s love,
And to me she is just another dream.

VJ Says ~ Cheers & Peace!

  1. For all you know, the footprints in the picture could belong to a guy, may be to the photographer who walked backwards to click that picture? :)

  6. The sea by itself is enigmatic and then you have brought about a lady. Must read Robert Browning's Cristina. I have spent more than half my life at sea and I instantly connect to anything to do with the sea

The flight had to make an emergency landing owing to the bad weather. After ten long years Sanjeev had finally decided to take a vacation. Akash had convinced him during a casual chat on Facebook the previous night that it was high time he broke out of the self imposed shell and fourteen hours later he was on his way to meet his childhood friend in Delhi.

Awakening Of the Inner Self!

It was yet another  Friday  or billions of earthlings. May be it was a mundane day ahead for some and exciting for others. An exciting day ahead for the ones who were certain of the joy to be unwrapped the next day, the weekend. Well, in my case it was the former. Blame it on being one amongst the many who work on Saturdays.
