Dark Chocolate


FB allows you to see many wonderful photos taken by so many photographers, amateur and professional, simply because some folks are friends of FB friends. It is another matter that so many of your friends on FB are folks you have never met , but you actually think you know, from seeing and following their work , in albums, blogs etc.

This is a wonderful sunset photo from Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, clicked by Kiran Mohan , who is actually a friend of a friend, Joshi Daniel  (who has figured earlier on this poetry blog)  but is also now my friend  :-))

This week has been one for writing about cakes and poetry . Like here.

Now one more ......

(photograph by Kiran Mohan)
Molten beach waves
pulled by thick sand,
mixed
richly with
seashells and secrets
and sometimes
some unwanted additives,
baking slowly
on a hot day
slowly getting
browned
on a chocolate evening
under a
subsiding point filament Sun....

Soon the
baked sea
will leave the sides of the beach,
and sit back
leaving
unpaired footwear,
and coconut shells
strewn
where it once was.....

    1. Shail, Sangeeta, Thank you ! In a week full of chocolatey stuff being posted and made at home, it wasnt surprising that I immediately thought of a "baking chocolate cake" when I saw this photo. Then i saw the name of the photographer, and wondered if Shail knew him ! :-))
