Even As The Night Falls



Hands sandwiched well beneath slabs of freezing ice; exploring the fabulous chill to the most unprecedented limits,

Feet transgressing through meadows of voluptuous green grass; stupendously relishing the glistening dew drops protruding enchantingly from the stalks,

Tongue seductively slurping tantalizing mountains of ice-cream; placidly resting in astronomical pleasure soon thereafter,

Eyes glimpsing the majestically alluring waves of the ocean; sweeping like an exotic whirlpool through a myriad of mesmerizing sights in this gigantic Universe,

Neck dancing rampantly under milky beams of moonlight; gyrating delectably with drifting draughts of exuberant breeze,

Hair trembling in tumultuous euphoria on scalp; as more than a billion droplets of water tumbled in vivacious frenzy from the sky,

Ears profoundly listening to the astoundingly melodious sound of the nightingale; entirely oblivious to the disdainful cacophony of the outside world,

Nails weaving mystical paths through a planet deluged with silk; absorbing the tingling softness in its most overwhelming state of compassion,

Nose profusely inhaling the scent of scarlet rose; wholesomely engulfed by an island of sedative flower and scent,

Teeth compassionately suckling on cubes of blissful sugarcane; inundating the barren palette of mouth with rejuvenating showers of untamed ecstasy,

Eyelids nictitating flirtatiously in the aisles of incomprehensible desire; mischievously reminiscing nostalgic sequences of innocuous childhood,

Throat humming indefatigably about a conviction to fight life; emanating boisterous tunes as the persona arose from the ashes,

Belly coated with toppings of appetizing cheese; impregnating a sensation more titillating than misty cocoons of smoke grey clouds,

Shadow fluttering tranquilly on obscure ground; enticing an ocean of dreams as it daintily maneuvered,

Sweat that has an oligarchic golden color; dribbling thunderously down my arms in anxious anticipation,

Toes on reinvigorating embers of sizzling fire; flooding my impoverished demeanor with loads of indomitable resilience and relaxing warmth,

Bones embodied with spurts of robust energy; imparting a resurgent tenacity to ebulliently bounce forward in true life,

Soul that leaves its impression even centuries after its disappearance; ubiquitously propagating the essence of philanthropic benevolence in the life of every human being,

And a heart that palpitates only for love till the time it lives; and even decades thereafter; is how I want each part of my body to be O! Lord; to win and emerge unflinchingly unnerved; even as the night falls.
