So this was again a family picnic spot between Vadodara and Surat for us just like Kadia Dungar caves.
We had already seen the Mahi river opening into the Gulf of Khambhat, now it was a turn of Narmada. Luvara lighthouse is near village Dahej and is a very quiet and less explored place. It is near Dahej beach which is more famous and which has Parshuram temple.
Just before you take a turn for Luvara lighthouse there is Dahej Ship port with beautiful seagulls giving mesmerizing view. Going straight further there is a small left turn, you need to take that for Luvara lighthouse or the main road will take you to the Dahej Beach. And after taking left turn there are bushes all around with small road. The lighthouse was closed due to COVID. So we went further on the beach.
The beach is very quiet and peaceful with not many people around. but please check the time of tide. we went there during low tide so the sea was much farther ahead. But the most amazing thing about the place is the sunset...
Sunset filled with hopes and dreams that I already wrote in our Kavi Kamboi post... If u have not read it please read...
But what about slowing down... The other important aspect of life that sunset teaches us is.... Why run behind all. Just relax. Just breathe and be calm. Sunset is here to absolve us from all our thoughts... from all our defeats... from all our loss and all our guilt. It mends us and it defends us. It also defines us in a way that we ourselves are unable to comprehend. That soothing colors of sky telling us everything is okay... a mixture of orange and purple rather looks amazing...in life also it does!!! Some blue moods and some good moods!!! So let's celebrate life with all blues and all goods, all sunsets and all sunrise till we can...
Sunset
Birds are returning to the offsprings
Sea is gently teasing at your feet
Clouds are slowly drifting
Oh.. what’s happening?
The voice inside my head mumbled:
Shhhh!!!
Don’t worry, sit back relax
Hold on for a while
Take a deep breath
Leave all your worries
All your stress
It’s calling your name
Though It comes daily
And though daily It goes
The shades of the sky
Are only for you
So just go slow
It will be there tomorrow
But the moment will not
Let’s feel the pleasure
And forget all sorrow
Slowly and slowly
Let them fade away
The deepening twilight comes
And I hear the whispering of the stars
Oh!! Dear Lord...
With moist eyes and a wide smile
I declared I am Opacarophile!!!!

That's all from our side...
see you next week with another new place and hopefully with new poem...
