"CONVERSATION"

Endless meshes of music
When sea murmured softly
Clouds floated slowly
Sunlight placed a tender kiss
To the rain washed air;

Quiet overwhelms
As I converse
With the invisible
For a startling revelation!!

"HUNGER"

Eclipsed look
Shadows beneath eyes
Legs blue with cold
Lack of apricity
Walked to places
Where shadows dwell...

Scarlet light flickers
On the midnight roads
In market square
Where beasts roam
Hunting deers
Whose spirit is dead...

Head like battle ground
Hot, violent and chaotic
Silent cries of heart unheard
As tears pricked her eyes...

Soul elsewhere fled
Body wrestled
To fulfill someone's greed
From hunger to save the child!

Only the hungry knows
What is hunger!!!

fierce blush on my face

"WISH"

When his arms came around her waist
Holding tight
The tears spilled on to her cheeks
Love she seeks
This is where she belong and fit
Heart joy lit

Wiping eyes drew away a bit
She looked along the endless line
Her eyes squinting in the sunshine
Holding tight love she seeks heart's joy lit

HAIKU SONNET

murk prevails in void
sound of music within silence
No undying light

heavy clouds move slowly
star specks blossom like flowers
great academics

singing bird delight's
inside heart's sanctuary
its language of love

sand castle floats in air
perfume from nests mix with air
firm grip of branches

yoke can be broken by
remaining natural self

HAIKU SONNET

A harvest of love
Ripen in delight's garden
Beyond blue yonder

Dark caves and cold cells
Have no doors to the bounty
Whispers of life soothes

Creation from joy
Passion and pain are its throbs
Rapture of dark night

Silence of her smile
susurration of the wind
star mist of midnight

Whispers of firmament soothes
Touch the folds of night's garment

"Dark Skies"

Silver clouds turned into dark
Blue yonder lost its brightness
Gloom in the ambience
The bay was depressed..

Emotional outbursts
with thunderbolts
Rivers overflowed
Tides roared..

Dark skies embrace deep seas
Finding solace with each other
In perfect understanding..

"PASSION FLOWS"

Sweet struggle
between us
as we hold each other...

Blushes and smiles
as we begin to record
our heart's song...

Eyes close
as you look into mine
unable to resist...

Some you give
I take
Some I offer
you receive...

Your playfulness
takes me to the
peak of pleasure,
that's when
our passion flows
in breathless sighs
and the sillage
you leave behind
linger around me
for quite a long time..

"A TOUCH'

His touch,
as he gave her the glass
was reassuring
as if he were reaching out
his arms for her
to catch hold of!!

He held out his arms
and she moved into
his embrace!!

He held her lightly
when she lifted
her head high!

Her head spinned
not with alcohol
but with his
intoxicating presence...
.....Aah! A touch
that said so much!!

"INTENSE PEACE"

Bravuras of nature
on the golden sky
Earth by its side
staid in trance;

Sun in sobre mood
flashed vibgyor spray
across the yonder
as laughing Waters
suddenly blushed
and ran fast to reach
its beloved;

Sun's last minute
fast movement
covered the land
with designer shadows;

Tall green elegant trees
on the sides
a live poetry
in the absorbing ambience,
pushed its way
through the mechanical brain;

Insensitive thoughts
burnt by the flame of
absorption;

The sky, land and
the watcher in me
caught up in this intensity
left only flame!!

and together we sing

You are the one
Who breathed life to
My chilled emotions...

Your presence creates
astounding magical moments
and your one whisper make me
rage with full passion...

You uncovered a part of me
hither to unknown
throwing out the trash
within me...

Through my mind's eye
I can find yours
amidst a crowd of thousands
for you are so dear to me..

It's good that my heart was frozen
and you brought back warmth
made it beat with excitement...

Oh my heart's light
my dear most
you are the author of
this beautiful love story...

Let me dance to your steps...

"MOMENT TO MOMENT"

Intricacies and complexities
of your vivid expressions...
contradictions....
known to the heart
that loves you....
understands you....
the one who is receptive
and open...

Ours, a unique relationship
discovery of "Who am I"
with you...
from moment to moment...

Regeneration is not from ideas
from relationship....

Truth is not something apart
it's a revelation,
constant process
of discovery...
for conflict creates nothing...

"TEARS TRICKLED"

Sank down on the dry grass
feeling exhausted
tried to relax
in the dappled sunlight
sipping iced tea....

Emotions darted around
like unsettled fish
clenching her eyes to shut
tried to clear her mind....

Felt an urge to scream
disturbed by the trauma
that devastated her...

At that very moment
sudden downpour
brought back all sorts of
mixed emotions and
as rains tickled her naple
tears trickled on her
flushed cheeks....

Conversation

Conversation
starts from nowhere
no idea where it will go
for it leaps,
sparkles or
just glows...

If you want to say
or prove  something
you are its enemy...

Argument is a part
but purpose not to convince!
One who is ready to lose
is the best...

Who Stole?

Who stole my smile?

Golden chariot of Gods

wafted in a time warp?

May I believe

black holes in galaxy?
Mysterious magnetic forces
at the Bermuda triangle point
of our heart's ocean?

"Song of my soul"

I'm a mountain goat
sitting on the edge of
materialistic world
watch the space
to have a glimpse of
my beloved!

I can hear his whispers
saying " I am always with you"

Space moves inside me,
I forget my body
feel his loving presence
in my whole being
saying,
"I'm always here my dear to greet thee"

Aah, what a beautiful feeling
to meet my eternal beloved!

Oh, my dear,
whatever my tongue may utter
within my heart you flutter!!

"Can I?"

Can I ever forget the
first taste of nectar?

Can I ever stop the
first flow of divine love
from the deep depths of
my heart's immensity?

Can I dream the same dream
again and again?
Can I sing the same song
I sung with you once?

Life's offers are innumerable!
Can I accept them
without you my love?

Can any kind of relationship
match with that
special connection
I have with you?
Even if it does
I don't want to lose the
sanctity of my first love!

With silver tears and
sparkling memories
shall I wait for you
in that Paradise of love
where there is no death
but only immensity....

"ECSTASY"

Great black flags of clouds
Unrolled on the sky;
River whipped into wild anger
Storm rose to crowning point;

Trees swayed as if in trance
leaves quivered in utter fear;

Thunder crashed

the stygian darkness;

Black clouds ecstasy
turned into rain drops
flowed inside Earth's womb
in perfect bliss!!

"CRUEL MEMORIES"

The song that was being played,
The tune set into music
Flashbacks of bitter memories,
Storms of emotions rised
In severe pain my heart throbbed,
On my cheeks without a break
Tears rolled..

The reason for my smile once
When so sweet was your kiss
Now scares me as if
The devils kiss upon my nape!
Heavy eyeballs closing to a deep sleep..

Madly mind is spinning
Glimpsing everything
Old and forgotten
Like a film at a wrong speed..

I'm afraid,
The crucifix on the wall
Would crush me!
Everything is distorted
A carny disorganized,
A cruel night mare!

Oh God, when will it end?

"WHO IS HE?"

Do you know him
Who abides in me,
Takes me for a ride
Hiding inside?

He never leaves me alone
Like a leech stuck on the
Wall of my mind!

Very adamant and arrogant
Reminds me of his presence
When I forget him for a while

Interferes in all my affairs
And never allow me to see
Things as they are.

If I am not wrong
He is all pervading
And rule my being
Remaining within
Like ghee inside milk.

To throw him out
I have to churn myself
Inside out.

He confuses me so much
I am not able to
Perceive things as they are!

Really fed up with him
And don't know
How to handle him.

I'm literally confused!
May be when he part from me,
I will be liberated.

"REGAINED PARADISE"

Heavy downpour the whole night
Gave good bath to mother Earth..

Delighted by the cloudless sky
Cock sang his morning song
With a shiny look sun came up...

Standing on the edge
Watched waves of swollen river
Running fast with excitement
To reach the sea...

Cool breeze of red soil
Took away the mind
To another state
With its scent spread all over...

As if in trance
My wounded heart
Slipped its aches
Into running water
Opening my eyes to
Enjoy the present moment of
Bright sunshine...

"SONG OF LIFE"

Rejecting everything,
left behind
what all I had
ran away with a
heart beating fast
with unknown fear...

Thundering waves of
endless ocean
brought back past memories
on the courtyard of my mind
like heaps of sand
on the sea shore...

A melodious song
flowing out from
the doors of death
opened my ears...

My dejected face
could not hide my
constant companions of life..

Glowing Sun tried to uplift
my mood with his warmth...

What is happiness?
I have no idea!
Not from external force
this much I know...

Shaking and jumping
inside the tidal waves of sorrow,
fail to swim out of that current...

Can unseen Gods,
the values of life
which I thought very precious,
illusions of attachment,
fake relationships
make me smile??

Watching this matchless
beauty of nature
with a painful feeling
that it is deriding me
every moment passing into past
I became old!!!

"Serendipity"

Cool breeze from western ghats,
petrichor of red soil,
black thundering clouds
touching the horizon
a marvelous scene to the eyes...

Shattering thunder and lightening
show every leaf
aquiver with wind and life...

Moments of threatening storm
serendipity for a curious mind..

Alert brain listen to the
rustles of leaves,
grasp the wisdom
behind tumult
experiencing the beatitude of
total awareness in the entity...
