Nikhil Parekh - Indian Poet


When we talk about the fiery body of sun; it's magnanimous stature in


the sky, 


The cardinal thing that inundates our mind; is its dazzling shine; and


the blistering rays that emanate indefatigably throughout the day.


 


When we talk about the placid persona of lake; the plethora of ripples


embodied on its surface, 


The salient thing that floods our mind; is the boats floating on it; 


the conglomerate of resplendent fish beneath its surface.


 


When we talk about the blossoming flowers in the garden; the wild


stalks of grass circumventing them, 


The chief thing that deluges our mind; is the fragrance that


perennially wafts from them; the sweet nectar incarcerated in their core.


 


When we talk about the colossal desert; the sweltering heat permeating


the ambience like dagger heads of acrimonious steel, 


The conspicuous thing that overwhelms our mind; is the astronomical


amounts of slippery sand; the hunchbacked camels traversing through its territory.


 


When we talk about the steep mountains; gigantic streams of water


plummeting down their slopes, 


The remarkable thing that imprisons our mind; is its summits standing abreast the clouds; the melodious gurgling sounds of liquid cascading down towards the ground.


 


When we talk about the tenacious wind; turbulent draughts of breeze


sweeping the periphery of earth, 


The prominent thing that encapsulates our mind; is rustling of the tree


leaves; the loose granules of mud which fly incoherently in air.


 


When we talk about the preposterously huge whales; their monstrous pair


of teeth which pulverize humans to chowder, 


The main thing that engulfs our mind; is swirling waves of the majestic


ocean; the animated aquatic life inhabiting the fathomless waters.


 


When we talk about the diminutive mosquito; its proliferation in pools of fetid water, 


The profound thing that envelops our mind; is incessant sounds of cacophonic


buzzing; the animosity in sting which painstakingly infiltrates in our flesh.


 


When we talk about gargantuan slices of cheese; the rich and sumptuous


odor diffusing from the same, 


The supreme thing that strangulates our mind; is the sacrosanct cow


yielding immaculate milk; the delicious taste it would impart when we revolve it


in our mouth.


 


And when we talk about true love; the blissful aftermath of falling in romance, 


The first thing that inevitably pierces our mind; is the mesmerizing image of


our beloved; the celestial reflections of her dainty feet.
