These lines are for all those who want to be into the wild – at least,once in their life-time !
*****************************************************************
Perforating a dense forest,
Of trees of oak & pine,
Offering their trunks for rest,
Fresh streams gushing to a ravine
Gazing at the river fountains,
Listening to a wild creak
With trees on either sides,
Halting at a deserted node,
For destination aren’t these rides
Boating in swamps & creeks,
Hiding in the mangrove paves,
Watching birds fishing with their beaks
Resting in an oasis midway,
In the night lying in the cool sand,
Staring the stars so far away
In my mind those sojourns brim;
While dozing in my armchair,
Of the distant lands I dream
*****************************************************************
Perforating a dense forest,
Of trees of oak & pine,
Offering their trunks for rest,
Fresh streams gushing to a ravine
Ascending those lofty mountains,
Standing on a majestic peak,
Gazing at the river fountains,
Listening to a wild creak
Riding on an empty road,
With trees on either sides,
Halting at a deserted node,
For destination aren’t these rides
Braving the battering ocean waves,
Boating in swamps & creeks,
Hiding in the mangrove paves,
Watching birds fishing with their beaks
Rambling through the vast grasslands,
Or plains dissected by rivers,
Feeding on fruits and farmlands,
Sleeping by bonfire to calm shivers
Trampling a scorching desert land,
Resting in an oasis midway,
In the night lying in the cool sand,
Staring the stars so far away
To be in the wild is my flair,
In my mind those sojourns brim;
While dozing in my armchair,
Of the distant lands I dream
like this one better.
