Arcadia

A beam of sunlight escaped through the cleft,
And I thought it was a shiny day
It filled my heart with joy,
And I thought it would stay
The joyous me laughed like a child!
When peeked through the rift,
What did I see, Oh! What did I see?
A creek flowing through,
A boundless beauty of greenery,
It awaited to be indulged & immersed
It tickled me to explore beyond
Allured me to experience all that I could only see

Fully amused & excited,
I rose up & headed ahead
It fascinated all the more,
And as I approached,
It invited with its open arms
A glorious moment awaited ahead,
An unknown world which seemed enticing.
Almost there, a closer view,
Enchanted, enthralled, amazed!
What did I see, Oh! What did I see?
Greenery was just a patch, 
Rivulet it was not, but a just a bog!
Anguish, remorse, penitence,
Turned around, headed back,
Suddenly, with a grin on the face,
What if it was what anticipated,
It moved & succored my soul,
And it led me to momentary bliss
We live in moments they say,
Why do we then recollect
A charming long lost day?
