 The day was astonishingly bright and Sunny, 

brilliant sunshine kissed bare bricks of the multi-storied edifice, 
puffs of white clouds were a meager few, wandering in oblivion, 
handsome cranes dipped their beak occasionally in still water of the lake, 
diminutive grains of dust glowed in the sun rays, 
a fleet of jet crafts left trails of grey smoke, 
there was a perfect bliss in the atmosphere, 
as I stood at high altitudes from the ground surface, 
on the roof top terrace plains of the tall building, 
gazed thousands of feet down through my high powered pair of field glasses.
 
The gigantic structure was surrounded by pure cotton, 
Bundles of cushion foam lined its periphery, 
There were chunks of velvet and satin quilt, 
Fibers of jute and gunny sacks containing unprocessed pulp, 
Reinforced with soft crystal balls of spongy Dunlop.
 
The feelings generated were irresistible, 
Waves of eccentric euphoria drowned me in totality, 
It was a breathtaking view that one could ever witness, 
A marvelously imposing structure, engulfed by a river of rich cotton floss.
 
That's when I decided to execute this act, 
Inhaling cylinders of fresh air inside my lung, 
Spread my hands like an eagle, bent my back to full angularity, 
Leaped with the strong wind, bereft of elastic camouflage covers of parachute, 
Hurtling headlong towards the ground at the speed of light, 
Infinite hair on my skin standing upright in exhilaration, 
Eventually bouncing on the maze of white cotton sea, 
Blended in equanimity with jute, plastic, dunlop and fiber, 
Escaped unhurt like a celestial God, 
Danced like a maniac losing pressured degrees of respect and control, 
As flakes of fragile cotton, 
A jugglery of thread and foam leaked from, 
All quarters of my wheat complexioned body.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
