Sunset At The Beach

As I sit there on the damp moist sand
My bare feet touching the soft beach land

Sound of the waves as though playing a song
Taking the birds returning to home along

It was time for the sun to call for the day
Gave me a feeling that I had come a long way

But look at the beauty it spread before it left
As if a saffron silk carpet it heft

As the sunset always been this alluring?
Or my blindness to the beauty of life so enduring?

It didn’t just bring the charm in the sea
But introduced me to the solitude in me

The hush around had turned into serene
And my mind became more calm and green

As I closed my eyes and thought of my journey
Life seemed to be a clock’s tyranny

So many beautiful sunsets I must have missed
So many winds passed by that never kissed

I don’t ask much from you oh dear Time
Just a paused moment before your next chime
