A free woman

Snow and ice melted faster this year

finally a  season of sun is here

And I stand red near a sea shore soaking in sun

Watching the pristine blue water, calm and clear

I slid from mocking earth to embracing sea

Breaking through ice walls of ego and hatred

To soak in purity and solitude in my own world

One life to me,  living it with love ,meant to be sacred

I chose to swim on my back facing the vast sky

Ah, what a moment to drown in and mark it for lifetime

The clouds, the breeze ,the silence around hypnotising me

Along With nature,I shared a secret mime

I  tried my every stroke and waded in swirls

Letting the water storms to pass by my figure

I hear my heart sing a medley of tunes

Gods of nature,blessed with peace and vigor

I lie like a topping with creamy clouds above and bouncy cake below

Shallow waters glittered in the sunlight turning everything into gold

Soon I began to flow like water just like I did in my own life

Freedom from wordly cluthches, joy doubled a million fold

the scent of seaweeds soothes my senses

The crest of greens, the lofty hills I look off my neck

Just like my silver dress, I shone in solitude

 Fearless-me receiving from around, the dolphins  peck

Waves of relief surround me like my beloved ones

I urge to sieze the moment and revisit it time and again

I let go off all  the  odds,to embrace life as it is

Free from synic's crown, I swam like "A Free Woman".
