 Bathing in an chilled ocean of champagne; consuming small sips of the same

with stupendous relish, 
 
Climbing the peak of the snow clad alps; feasting the panoramic view of the 
gorgeous valley, 
 
Driving flamboyant cars at whirlwind speeds; wildly careening through the
colossal expanse of the highway, 
 
Impulsively sketching intricate shapes of brave stalwarts; portraying their charisma to the mundane world, 
 
Tenaciously biting into obdurate chunks of farm apple; reducing the succulent fruit to pulp, 
 
Voraciously rolling in a slurry of wet mud; getting intensely tickled by the poignant aroma, 
 
Riding on bare camelback through the arid regions of the desert; profoundly enjoying the golden sands, 
 
Scrubbing my entire silhouette with an extract of piquant green chili; breathing fumes of boiling gas from my nose, 
 
Embellishing my spouse with the most exquisite of jewelry; inundating her parted hair with crimson vermilion, 
 
Gyrating to blasting music diffusing from the discotheque; swirling uninhibitedly till wee hours of evanescent dawn, 
 
Decoding the most baffling of enigmas; innovating a plethora of contrivances to assist the commoner, 
 
Soaring high in the air strapped tightly to an inflated balloon; whistling in unison with the passing birds, 
 
Swimming onerously against the high rising waves; swallowing pinches of frothy
water in my famished mouth, 
 
Staring unrelentingly at the sapphire sky; trying to unveil the vagaries of
life in the twinkling stars, 
 
Roasting a battalion of sumptuous fish on hot embers of coal; chewing the same
scrupulously entangling the pointed bones, 
 
Languishing sedately on a mattress of pure silk; bouncing sporadically on the
flocculent cotton, 
 
Perspiring like a pig under the sweltering heat of Sun God; bustling robustly  in the fervor of youth, 
 
Gallivanting on the streets casually attired; passing chivalrous smiles to all I  encountered, 
 
Amalgamating torn pieces of rags; meticulously with the metallic bodkin, 
 
Molding threadbare lumps of greasy wax; into a grandiloquent statue, 
 
Garrulously conversing the entire day with innocuous children; reminiscing my childhood days, 
 
Pinching swollen paper bags with my nail; thereby producing obstreperous bangs, 
 
Polishing the enamel of my teeth incessantly with rustic sticks of tree bark; granting them a perpetual sparkle, 
 
Embossing infinite lines of calligraphy on bonded paper; transforming its pallid persona into one embedded with literary compositions, 
 
Inscribing her name on my chest with a switchblade; imprisoning her close to my heart, 
 
Philandering across umpteenth places of the globe; absorbing the enchanting mysticism of natural forest, 
 
Serving humanity with all my might; extending my services to all those deprived of indispensable vision, 
 
Yes this is no kidding; the above mentioned blended with bountiful more, 
 
Only after which I would like to relinquish breath; and leave for my heavenly abode.
