Magic Sails

I watched the red sails

out on the ocean

in the warm glow

of the fading sun

soft ripples

glistening waters dance lightly

like ballerinas nimble

tiptoeing the ballet

Magic Flute

pirouetting, twirling

something dreamy

magical tranquility.

The Desert Red

Encapsulating the magic

of the desert sky

as evening glows

a vibrant red

sunset at Ayers Rock

breathtaking landscape

changing colours of Uluru.

Red Sails

A charming landscape

Flowers bloom

by the calm waters

Red sails at sunset

The lake of tranquility.

Casa Del Mar

The elegant villa

Jewel of dreamy lagoon

Pristine golden sands

to water’s edge

As the setting sun

disappears out of sight

A glowing red sunset

opens up a spectacular

vista over the horizon

Endless spectrum of colours

The dreamy lagoon.

~

Magical strings

Spanish guitar

echoing serenades

Melodies to the rhythm

of the gentle waves

Diners by the beach

under the canopy of stars

The enchanting lagoon.

Evening boat cruise

captures harbour lights

and the stunning sunset

As it lights up the evening sky

to a warm orange glow

Where sparkling stars

begin to twinkle

And the gentle breeze

adds to the day’s

experience and reflection

On this eclectic

Isle of palms.

 

Birds At Dusk

Birds flying in formation

at evening time

dark clouds gathering

thunder rumbling

a rainbow arches across the sky.

Rhythm Of The Isle

Rhythm of waves

mesmerising sounds

breaking against rocks

snow-white sand

fine and soft

coconut palms

gently swaying

distant sunset

mauve colours

twilight sky

as stars light the sparkle

in dreams of love.

Open Space

Parasailing

across the ocean

bird’s eye view

colourful parachute

towed by speedboat

light breeze

an adventurous challenge.

Crystal clear sea

myriads of fish

wide open beach

sandy stretches

waves breaking

against rocks.

giving a new dimension

to life.

Spectacular sunset

glowing orange

slowly gives way

to

a moonlit night.

Clear Starry Night

 

Golden sunset,

Clear starry night

The sleek silvery crescent moon

Shines on and lights up the night.

 

 

Out At Sea

After a heavy rainfall

The fishermen are out at sea

for their catch

At evening time,

the pink and mauve sunset,

Is a spectacular sight.
