A tryst with vettiness

In the woods he strolled,

the fire in him long gone..

He longed to tarry,in his

heart loneliness he couldn't carry.

Somewhere ahead could he hear,

the early chirping of a li'l birdie,

the gentle rumbling of a stream

and the rustling of the leaves.

The cool breeze ruffled his hair,

while the raising sun cast his glorious rays

on all things beautiful.

To the woods he had come at last

coz it was where he had met her first.

He knew not,how he knew what he knew

but he knew:he had found his long-lost love....

It was then that he heard,a clear ringing laughter

that made his heart race faster.

His breath he held,as he turned his head,

and in the glade,he beheld

the only one for him.

All things past,

before his eyes flashed

how a petty quarrel had turned nasty

and he had let her walk outta his life in his fury.

Time stood still as

watching her he stood..

Her skin soft shone pearly white

against her flowing turquoise gown,

flowers blue adorned her silky copper hair.

Her sky-blue eyes he knew,

could challenge the depths of the deep blue ocean.

Her soft pink lips could put

the petals of flowers,known and unknown,to shame.

Her face did shine with innocence pure,

her witty gab he had missed for so long.

And now as she held the rabbit close chiding him,

for leaving the cozy home and causing quite some worry.

He felt excitement course through him

as he heard her voice,

the voice,he was sure,could alone awaken him

even from the dead

Waves of emotions filled his heart

as he moved towards her

Then he saw,mirrored in her eyes,

all his feelings strong and his joy

found no bounds.

In her heart of hearts she had known

he would come for her one day.

and now,seeing him there,her heart

did skip some beats.

She smiled her beautific smile

a smile which could brighten his day

and lighten his heart any day.

As he held her in his arms and

a myriad of thoughts got interwined,

they knew they were where they belonged:

with each other.

In those woods someplace far,

u might still visit 'em coz

elves they are is wat I hear!

PS:This was my first attempt at penning something down.I happened to sit by my window looking down the street,enjoying the cool breeze last summer vacation.It was well past midnight and thought would atleast write a not-so-nice letter addressed to rammu(my sis) to keep her occupied on her way to college the next day...but got carried away and came up with this!(very amateur,i agree!)
