 The palace looked enchanting like a festoon of blossoming flowers; blended profusely with shimmering lights, 

It however appeared blurred and incoherently hazy; when I attempted to see it through the corner of my eye.
 
The celestial moon in the sky looked like an animate ocean of white pearls, 
The same appeared distorted; with slim outlines of ashen grey, when I inadvertently attempted to sight it through the corner of my eye.
 
The compact sedans traversing city streets; looked like silver fish in the sea with
silken grace, 
They however appeared like fading mirages; disappearing into a whirlwind of
obnoxious dust, when I tried to visualize them through the corner of my eye.
 
The waterfall cascading down the mountain slope; looked stupendous; with a mesmerizing sound emanating, 
It however appeared like a stingy trickle of liquid this time; when I endeavored sighting it through the corner of my eye.
 
The statue on its pedestal in the city square looked tall and stringently domineering, 
The same appeared thoroughly minuscule; utterly inconspicuous when I sighted it through the corner of my eye.
 
The hands of the grandfather clock; looked saliently clear and ticking with meticulous perfection, 
However I had onerous difficulty deciphering the time; when I tried to picture the same through the corner of my eye. 
 
The silhouette of ship floating on the ocean; looked like embossed with infinite
number of ivory tusks, 
I however had to strain my mind to entangle; whether it was a ship or a boat, when I perspired seeing it through the corner of my eye.
 
Her magnanimous persona; seemed to radiate waves of indispensable love; looked
like an innocuous fairy having descended from the sky, 
And let me say this explicitly friends; that it appeared all the more profound; exquisitely glorious, this time when I tried to sight her through the corner of my eye.
