"Z" Is For "Zap" #atozchallenge

Goodbyes;

They always make me go down on my knees,

With stomach full of unease,

And the silent storm of emotions rising

Against the backward pull that are pretty much enticing.

With zapping up of the challenge of April,

I recall what had gone into the grill.

Started with staring at the Azure sky

And running to the Bastion,

Appreciated virtuous over the Charlatans,

And praising the Dawn.

Encumbered by the mental blocks,

Still went hand in hand with Felicity,

Faced challenges with Gumption

Yet Halcyon was the month.

Impromptu visits of dear ones made merry,

Together we enjoyed many Jaunts.

Old memories re- Kindled,

But kept away nuisance from Lurking around,

Missed Maa a lot, 
With Nostalgia hovering over,

When love went into Oblivion.

Meditation with Placid mind was relieving,

While keeping love Quiescent felt wise.

Mind Resonating feelings of the heart,

And Serendipity played the magic,

When we met Trekkers from Arctic.

You suddenly usurped the realm of my peace,

But the nobel Virtuoso came to my rescue

I learnt life was Wonderful, when by the mooring,

The Xebec  found the moon mesmerizing

But, it's You that I am smitten by
Nevertheless, Zapping it up for now,
Oh Darling April! Today, I do bow. 

I have signed up for Blogging From A - Z Challenge April. Today is the Final Day. Day 26. I conclude the day with my A - Z list embedded within my poem.

The above picture is of Sunrise depicting the end of one day leads to a better and brighter sunrise with better perspectives in life. And we should never loose hope and stick to optimism, come what may.

I am super excited that I did start at "A" and could stay till "Z". Wow! This seems to me as a dream. An unbelievable one of-course. :)  I am glad that I could get this far.

"Y" Is For "You" #atozchallenge

This is for You; Like I had promised to do,

To write about you, and how you linger,

In my thoughts,

My dreams,

My wishes,

And in my whims.

Like sunshine after the rain,

Like fragrance of shower in my mane.

Like freshly ground coffee in chilly winter nights,

Like spectra of colors unfurled from whites.

Like the laughter which was long forgotten,

Like the softness of silk cotton.

I beam at your tender touch,

And love your smile so much.

The ocean of your love is boundless,

Makes me emotional as my heart rattles.

You look into my eyes with absolute affection,

In your words, I find happiness’ reflection.

I dream of traveling to the northern lights,

Crossing the history of castles and knights.

Yes Darling!

I am writing about us,

A tiny part of me

And a little about you,

Like I had promised to do.

"X" Is For "Xebec" #atozchallenge

The Mediterranean seemed puffed up;

Raising the tempest,

And waves hitting the xebec,

Across it’s walls.

Little Charlotte recoiled beneath the sheets;

At corner of the cubbyhole,

Resisting the upheaval,

To not upset her merry soul.

Dearest old uncle captain;

Came to her rescue,

Pulling Charlotte out of the dark

Holding opera on the deck

And doing a burlesque.

There she was;

The merriest and the prettiest,

Chortled and danced around,

Far went the gale, indeed far away.

Having rounded of their touring;

Back in the blue lagoon,

The xebec lay by the mooring,

And Charlotte sat by the bay,

Waiting for a peek of the moon.

"W" Is For "Wonderful" #atozchallenge

On this almost survival day;

Makes me wonder of my brawn,

To sustain through this challenge,

Gruelling and compelling that was,

Missed days,

Lagged behind,

Never settled on for surrender.

Dear life;

Give me the might to face you in such,

That even death shall comprehend,

That perseverance triumphs,

Through all agony,

Distress,

And qualms.

You are wonderful dear life,

And so is love.
Such overwhelming,
Has been my journey with you,
Somedays seemed ambiguous,
Some absolute,
Some cheerful,
And some filled with despondency.
Yet I salute;
And shall color you happy
You are wonderful, dear life.

"V" Is For "Virtuoso" #atozchallenge

Those kaolin laden hands;

Of the virtuoso

Look pretty under the sun,

When they run through the wheels,

With utter ease and credence,

As he jiggers and batters

And caresses the clay,

And touches to sculpt it his way.

"U" Is For "Usurp" #atozchallenge

Will you love me forever?

For;

Forever is superficial,

And shall make me immortal

Do I even wish to be one?

Coz;

Today is when I intend to live

And today is when I wish to be loved,

Do you wish to usurp my heart?

And What if;

I let you do so,

With all conviction and faith

Do you promise?

Not to turn hopes to otiose

And not infringe love’s essence.

Only then;

Shall I learn to love you too

You should be listening.

Are you?

"T" Is For "Trekkers" #atozchallenge

There’s a world;

Away from the one where everyone lives in

Encompassing tranquility,

Untwined into the openness,

Of the wild and wilderness.

Where the breeze blends;

With the whiff of parched soil,

And star-lit streams,

Wear away the day long toil.

Where view from top;

Is living in a dream,

And blitheness is

Soaking in resplendence,

Of the bright moonbeam,

Which lights up the dark

And colors the snow blue.

Where clouds float down;

Like waterfall into the abyss,

And rainbow is a circle,

Between sun and the mist.

Where the soul frees itself;

From all affliction around,

Where smile of a stranger

Keeps us spellbound.

Yes, there’s a world;

Prettier than this one,

Only that we know of it,

Cz, we are wandering souls,

We are the trekkers.

The mountains are our love

And they love us back indeed.

"S" Is For "Serendipity" #atozchallenge

They met, they parted;

From strangers to acquaintances,

And back to strangers again.

Days passed on to being weeks,

Weeks to months

And never did they cross any bylane.

He never lost sight of;

The moment she had looked at him,

And the moment she looked away,

The moment when she was there,

And the moment she wasn’t.

He craved for the unanswered;

Reason behind her ignorance,

And the silence of her eyes,

Reason behind her half-done smiles,

And truth behind the buoyant lies.

One thing he was positive;

About her wanting to see him,

Her desire to be with him,

The gladness in her smiles when around him,

Made him pace towards her.

Serendipity it was;

The day they met,

And today is the day;

She wrapped in his arms,

Smiling overtly without conundrum,

Confessing their love.

From strangers to lovers;

They sauntered a long way.

Love is magical,

It definitely makes it’s own course,

Oscillating across wins and lessons.

Spiralling from the fire ball;

With flames of orange,

Intending to burn the cobalt blue sky.

The rays;

Striking like the shining armour,

Resonating warmth from beyond the greens.

“Q” Is For “Quiescent” #atozchallenge

Oh Darling!

It’s always difficult at the beginning,

The road and the inning,

Filled with ambiguity

And uncertainty.

Hold my hand;

And I shall hold yours

Have my back;

And I shall have yours

Let’s cross the borders;

Of altercations,

Of inducements,

And anxieties.

Listen to my heart,

It’s you it beats for.

Look into my eyes,

That’s where my love resides,

Quiescently though

For you, Only for you.

Trust me sweetheart;

Love shall prevail,

And shall reach the smiles

Making way

Through the tunnels dark,

Swimming across the ocean of tears.

I beseech you, my love,

Let's hold on strongly,

Stay still, 

With conviction

In the hearts.
