Transient Joys

Bubbles rising in the air

beautifying the mighty sky

rising and popping,

sprinkling delightful droplets

here and there....

Running after the balloon 

that accidentally slipped away from your fingers

and floats away with wind

soaring high, way beyond our reach....

Watching the solitary cloud which

like cotton ball is carried away by the wind

nudging, touching, overlapping another loner.....

Rejoicing at the sight of the vibrant rainbow

adorning the roof of the earth

filling us with desire to reach it and touch it.....

Budding architects building sandcastles on the beach shore

then watching the little splendors soak and melt in the waves

finding sea shells big and small

and collecting them all.....

Gazing at ripples in the ocean

gentle stirs created by pebbles thrown

on some lazy summer afternoon.....

Painting the sidewalks with colorful chalks

painting the sidewalks with water which dries up before the painting is done

doing it over and over again 

yelling and squealing as the water disappears.....

Watching the changing colors of the leaves

lying on the bed of fallen leaves

stepping on the rustling leaves......

Admiring the giant and puny pumpkins decorating the houses

then catching glimpses of squirrels munching on them 

in your balcony

as they get ready to hibernate......

Fragile snowflakes descending from above

kissing the ground

tickling cold the hands stretched out to catch them.....

Making snowman and throwing snowballs 

squishing the snow with bare hands

feeling the freeze and the numbness......

Transient Joys

Impressions Infinite.....
