Nature's Spectacle....

For those of you who don't know...I'm crazy about a few silly things...and in that list
features something called the sunset. How lame...how dum!!? Big deal...! I read somewhere
that every sunset is different, but never less breath-taking. i don't think i'd have to
explain the depth of truth those words hold to anyone who enjoys this spectacle as much
as i do. As for those of you who don't....i would suggest u take some time off one
day...stop a while....a few minutes....n look west as the day closes. It won't change
much, but aleast you won't be missing something in life. There's hardly anything that can
be more beautiful....there's this phrase i love that says the sunset is " Sort of like
God's putting a shiny copper penny into a slot to buy a skyful of stars" .....ain't that
nice? DAMN.... i think this aspect of nature has some character. That's how i look at
it...The sun's going into hiding in one direction...n the stars come up before all light
has totally vanished...aah twilight, dusk they call it. Whatever...to me, its just utter
beauty. People say - the sky is God's painting...Hell, then God's one hell of an artist!!
The last light of the day before the sky is swallowed by the inky darkness of the
night....come on, stop n look around....

As a tribute to the most wonderful creation of the whole wide world, i wrote
something.... the sunset....that has a different interpretation in physics....different
in music...different in poetry....different in the minds of observers....


FACADE?

Hues of the horizon...entwined like a facade of life...
engulfing the wide expanse of open skies...
As the master remains hazy... behind a thin curtain of blurry clouds...
Each one cries out in diverse adversity...lofty illusions...
Jarring the gaping heavens out of their subtle reverie...
Filling in voids echoing with emptiness...where something lay amiss..
Casting a spell on a wretched pair of eyes...hooked in overwhelming wonderment.
Emanating new reasons...tender misconceptions...
Hiding the ominous truth...deceiveng with vivid colours...
Calling out to the craving soul...disguised by fake placidness...
To break barriers of inauthenticity...and exhibit utter genuineness,
In the rising spirit of the setting shades...
Unfeigned by the colours of the world,
Untouched by the exorbitant thirst of humanity.
The hues give way to shadows...taking away the light of the day...
Stealing reason and rhyme...from an unfinished ode,
Robbing an innocent mind of the pleasantries of the eye...
Looting a poet's heart lost in splendid brilliance of blend...
Raising hopes in an expectant heart...absorbed in a bond of trust...
Spreading darkness into the evening...knocking at twilight's doors.
While the silver slowly seeps into existense...in studded blackness...
As if barring the gates to the heavens...
Leaving behind hollow deprivation...Changing mood, spirit and meaning...
Lulling the world into slumber...
Uniting them with their destinies...in far off lands...promised lands...
yet another facade...
forever a facade.


Have a nice day!!
