THE TERRACE




The terrace

The arena of life opens before me

No walls only the night sky

embracing us like a true companion 

Breezy cold night, as if winter has arrived early this year

My heart is warm with friends around

Everyone seems to relish the moonlit night

Dew drop seem to sparkle in the pearl light

Smell of the wild flowers in the valley

gives life to old forgotten memories that dwelt deep within

Sea of thoughts that reflected the cobweb of life has now

faded like an unclear mirage

Now suddenly there is romance in the air

Women seem to occupy the center stage

Those who had earlier dared to take this treacherous path seemed

to take sigh of relief now

Someone hastingly unlocks the window to journey ahead

Now everyone seemed to fall into a deep slumber

As emptied sonnets lie near by.
