Mirage!


Sand, sea and sky
God's magical vellicate
Refreshes tired souls.

Alone in the deep
blue sea, or have wings to fly
Just some pure mirage!

    Hi Ramesh, I am again reading the meaning of those prompts, I guess, I did not take the real essence....:(

    Oh yes Amity wondrous nature does vellicate our heart strings and the inspiration freely flows into your words :)

    Your sand, sea, and sky is truly
    A mirage to me,
    Sitting here inside
    Warm from the ice outside.

    Amity, is that the beach near your home? You live in such beautiful areas I think, it doesn't seem a mirage, rather some vacation destination. I wish it to be such :) that blue sea, and golden beach would be great to relax..
