Feel the wind frolicking on your face,
And the sunlight smiling around your eyes
Let your feet romance the sand
Tattooing your memories on the shadow
To let this moment in perpetuity
Be lovingly called Heaven on Earth
-Neel Trivedi

Africa swells thunder gland
as icicle pedicles form new Island
Dwell across crossings to watery Forest
to plunge & bough on sand hotness
Edge offshoot distant safe harbor
spirit stretch trees of ardor
Poetic song New York
glides Dionysus

Strolling along glistening path
toes in sand
hair blowing in gentle breeze
pondering upon heartfelt memories
Eight blessings bestowed upon me
raised em up to B brave
think freely!
to embrace their inner me
44 years 31st day of 7th month
Leo; faced inner shadow
shed many tears through the years
thought i was unlovable, unlikeable
I felt miserable, always trying ta please…
Hopin someone would love me
I finally love myself, both light & dark
Tis what gave me passion & spark
Shaped me, broke me…
Then awoke me!
Happy birthday! I’m free
Love has made its mark

Curiosity delights
fondling dreams
with rapt devotedness
he pleasures her
with sun kissed air
of his breath
lingering on shadows
of her undertones
rhapsodizing love
on the ever migrating sands.
Sandcastling Delight
Your fire saunters on sand
mesmerizes even shadows
wrapping sunlight over us
chilled eyes basking desire.
Searing looks decked out
map sunstruck smiles
you gift my moment
as clouds hurry over.
Cooling temperament rules
our fingers say hello
dripping with relief
we sandcastle our delight.
