Colors

Splash of colors everywhere
Red, green and blue
Color him and color her
And color me too


I like the splash of yellow
Bright like sunshine
When yellow around everything is sound
And there’s no place for a whine


Green brings the freshness
Of trees and the hills
In the warmth of this spring too
The sight gives chills


Cuteness of pink is adorable
Color of innocence and little girls
Of those chubby cheeks and quirky chirps
Cute dresses and lovely curls


The calmness of cool blue
Reminds me of deep blue sea
And the vastness of sky and ocean
Even beyond what one can see


Those erotic rosy lips
Quivering with feelings unsaid
Wanting to be soaked in color of love
As if saying “color me red”


Orange is so sweet and enticing
Of culinary and of taste
It is for the delectable and luscious platter
That must be enjoyed slow and not in haste


I love a lil bit of them all
That makes me a lil white
A tinge of gold added to it
Makes it a lil bright


I like to see the bright gold
In a glass poured with tequila
It makes me smile and makes me feel
From a mediocre girl to a starling diva :)

Coasts Of Konkan

As the road unwinds
And you see the mountain ranges
The air seems different
And even the breeze changes

When you pass through a sheepish town
Coconut and beatlenut trees are where
When you hear the sound of sea waves
You know the coasts of Konkan are there

The beach is full of life
Everyone has something to do
Little toddlers an even grandparents
Are playing with the sand too

I feel like digging my bare feet in the sand
And run wild on the shore
My hair getting messy by the wind
But that would only make me run more

I feel like splashing in the waves
And take a dip in the sea
Then swim and race with the waves
Get all tanned and just be me

Ski boat is my favorite
Coz it jumps over the waves
It must bring butterflies in the stomach
And is meant for a heart that is brave

I look at folk parasailing
Chasing and flowing with the wind
Looking down over the sea
The picturesque view must be pinned

As I watch the sun go down
I move my wheelchair little to the side
While it was fun to watch everything on the beach
This restraining companion is my only ride

This place lets me dream
Of being without my restraining chair
Thats why every year
Coasts of Konkan call me there
