I Yearn
I Yearn
The salubrious crisp mountain breeze
whiffs past
Whispering through vistas of
verdant green woods
A thousand sounds emanate
mysteriously
Ethereal melodies reverberate
into ears
Beating the best of temporal symphonies
Uninterrupted, the sun glows
and warms
The vast expanse of azure blue
silent sky
Interspersed with floating flakes
of milky white
Forming magical mystical myriad shapes
Time freezes in a celestial zone
Mesmerized mystified
A vacant mood drifts
into a reverie
A pageant of seasons gone by
flashes bright
A vision of humanity as pure as Nature
A delightful dive into refreshing times
Real people real relations
Real faces genuine expressions
Unwired
Unplugged
Face to face conversations
No emoticons, no feigned emotions
Unvarnished love, unbridled compassion
Contented hearts
Pious souls
Man and Nature in unblemished combination
No scouting for applause
No hurry no pouting
Soft summers
Soothing springs
Camaraderie for sure for granted
Suddenly the parade vanishes
The reverie is shattered
Perhaps by a reckless human action
The thunder of a blasting mountain
Leaving behind pains galore
And once more
I long to live in years of yore
Once more I yearn to turn the clock
To escape the modern era's agonies and sores
