integrated into mindful ocean revelry,
rainbows in the sky might taunt, tease and tantalize,
but isn’t that imperative for genuine enlightenment,
endless stretch not confined to land based quarter,

fascinating episode behind the wheel,

dormant passage waiting to be scripted,
green meadow, winding lane and dirt dry slope,
signposts nudging intuition to a higher plateau,
graceful flier tweet on burgundy red leaf,
so the urban concrete marvel has this crucial  role,
street vendor ardent  patios toll  free,
to a tangerine celestial horizon’s frail whisper,
supplier of the silken bon mot
