Waves, tumultuous invasion on the golden sand They come and go, like thoughts galore Footprints I made, delible though I know But the canvas of sea and sand, woven together Will always be there. A perfect painting Of happiness, warmth and hope.
Refreshing combination of words and images, Mani; thoughts come and go, leaving marks on mind’s shoreline, very much like swelling and ebbing waves, some thoughts remain as indelible etchings, while many are washed away, replaced by still surging tides of glee, or ebbing tides of sorrow.
Beautiful comparison of waves to thoughts. Delible footprints get erased but sand and sea together remain as a picture perfect frame. Needless to say a delightful poem. (Nowadays I end up calling every poem as a haiku :))
Not all the delible footprints were deleted from the canvas (which is your pic) A bit of a bouncer for me, that poem but I get it now. Maybe I read it too hurriedly.
This is a magical weaving of perfect choice of words and beautiful thoughts. The sand as a canvas, the waves comes and goes very much the way the thoughts that keep coming and going, our mind keeps wandering…a wonderful analogy. Yes, the combination of sea and sand, when artfully aligned, we can see the nature’s beautiful painting…an epitome of happiness and hope.
Great one, just loved it…

You write so beautifully, it just catches our imagination…thoughts are the soul of the language we speak, words are incidental and thoughts behind are the real voice…your voice reflects in each word you chose.
Always love our discussion…
take care!!!
Actually, Nihar, I think you are a poet yourself…I firmly believe that you have the ability to compose some great poetic pieces. Why not try your hands on it? 🙂
