A  Walk of Joy

 
Side by side,
On a sandy street,
Impressed with footprints,
They saunter along
Like owners of the way
talking and chatting
like two in a closet.

Neither young nor old;
Two adults with insight;
Mentally matured
...and emotionally stable.

Passers-by look with interest:
These two creatures of mortality:
The elderly remembering their youthful days;
The youth wishing if it were their reality.

Faces blossom with smiles,
Like the Morning Sun,
Gleaming and glowing
A joy rising from their depths.

Lips unfold
Like petals of flowers,
Showing glinted teeth
Sparkling at the foreground.

Stream of words
Flowing with inspiration,
Irrigating their minds
In this walk of joy.

Oblivious of time
That is on a sprint;
Savouring their moment
The focus of their time.

Openness and respect
The ambience of their interaction;
Listening and speaking
Arts:they are proficient in.

Bubbling on the street
Full of life;
Bursting with joy
As balloons overpressured
By their content.

Moments together
A life of harmony and tolerance;
Two different personalities
On the road to unity.

A walk of two
In sync with each other;
Hearts on the same plane
Understanding each other.
