How I Wish

Standing at the ocean’s end,

gazing into the deep blue,

as if gazing the God’s lair,

how I wish you were there..

Standing out in the monsoon rain,

feeling the touch of heaven’s grace,

putting out a hand, in His care,

how I wish you were there..

Standing on a prairie vast,

with large clouds, their shadows cast,

the sun, only little bright, just to stare,

how I wish you were there..

Sitting by the river’s side,

watching it flow, in its gentle might,

brightly glowing, in the moonlit glare,

how I wish you were there..

Laying down on a bed of sand,

gazing the spots on the canvas sky,

left thinking in utter despair,

how I wish, you were there..

sitting out in a forest deep,

fiery flames in front lit,

seeking like the warmth of the flames’ flare,

how I wish you were there…
