Day 13 - M (A to Z Challenge) and Day 15 - Visions (Napowrimo)

Mooring the stars to the tiny houseboat

I zig-zagged along the pebble to the tip of the cliff

I saw the horizon bleeding

Alarmed, my hair rose on my skin

I wished to dip my brushes into it

Paint a fury painting or a passionate one

But all I could do was stare and stare

Until the gold sunk itself in.

I could eat the clouds and embrace the air

But soon time and dimensions change.

Fireflies dropped from sky like rain

Scintillating the hearth of visions

All I could do was stare and stare

Love engulfed in numerous forms

Bees rose from grass, roses bloomed on dews

Jasmine curled on arms, ghazels sprinted across

The wide duned-skies, and I floated in mid-air

Beaming with enormous love

All I could do was love and all you could feel was love

All I could do was stare at the wondrous sight.          

This is not on Napowrimo prompt as such. Since I didn't have time to write today, I am posting a poem that was selected and published in an anthology called "Beyond Words." It is my habit of imagining and envisioning scenarios, a bit of a waking dream and a lot of tying up the elements and trying to recreate it and mostly failing at it as it would never match the the 'idea' I conjure up. I am learning and getting better at it, sometimes.
