here i was

last evening

walking back slowly

letting the sweat dry on my back..

 the wind swirled my thoughts about

 a dark evening

when the clouds had blocked

the blue hues from the sky

 to colours my moods with their own dye

 the fragrance of the frangipani lined street

held me in the twirls of the perfume

 unlit and inviting...

again reminding me

of evenings i had spent in bliss...

 the tall grass was being whipped by the wind

and it  quietly hissed...

making me aware

 of the serpents that  within them lived

but my eyes were drawn to the sky

and the mind was begining to smile..

oh how sweet was this moment ...

 this moment of 'wishing you were here with me'.

 the sea roared

sending the waves thrashing on the bouldered beach ...

 tugging and twining...

and i

 i merely shrugged back at her

and returned back smiling...

sometimes glancing at the sky

 in case a lil star did peek at me

from between the clouds...
