Tall Shadow..

Tall shadow
In the clear water
Seed crafts waves


This would have happened to most of us and wish it happens to all. In the portrait here, a couple is standing under a tree on the banks of a beautiful lake. Their love is as  pure/clear as the water of lake and is seeded/deep rooted in their hearts. A seed from the tree falls to lake, magical waves, crafts a salsa of the tall shadows!

World twinkles..

Glossy home
Hold back temptations
World twinkles









Modern society has become materialistic. Most of us find solace in glossy and superficial things. In the process, we have limited ourselves, stopped thinking out of box, resulting in a less innovative lifestyle. If these temptations are held back, we will soon start realising that it's not only the star that twinkles, even the world does!

Pick pearls..

Silver clouds
Drizzling melodies
Friend, pick pearls


A rainy day after a long summer brings lot of happiness. To make the most out of it, I sat in the balcony with a glass of tea, and these lines just came out!.

Shoreline..

Great pursuit
My kismet beacons
Shoreline reefs


Most of us don't heed to our inner voice, hence end up beating the bush and cursing life. Meditation is the best medicine. Kismet- Destiny always beacons. May be in a reef far away. Looking at it from the shore and feeling proud of the pursuit so far, could make the Destiny out of sight. Never rest till the goals are achieved is the message here.

Wrecked hearts..

Rain pour bliss
Your hackneyed ardours
Have wrecked hearts


Attempt to put two emotions. Both of them longing for bliss. First one, gazing at the rain Gods for a downpour after a prolonged zeal of Sun, which has resulted in dried-up crops, greenless farms. Second one, a lover who is unable to convey his/her feelings and is just hoping that the feelings become mutual!

Roofless..

Starved eyes pray
For bright horizon
Roofless hut


World always discriminated rich and poor. This gap always increased. Prayer is the only hope for poor, praying for a square of meal, praying for basic amenities, praying for their shelter. Irony is depicted in last two lines. Mesmerized, on how the way world runs, on how we celebrate, on how we survive, on how one wishes for brightness in a roofless hut. Attempt to show the dark side of "Mesmerization".

Musical night..

Poetry doesn't come out without the pain, true..
We long to relive those moments that are lost..
Pain of missing a caring hand, an amazing hug..
Or simply a melody that moves your spirit..
We had a mission, to create those moments..
At a unknown place,  moonlight on the face ..
Climate was picture perfect, heart crooning hmmm ..
Exchanging smiles, glittering eyes,Magic was all around..
We started to sing, melodies of soul of the world..
On and on, magical moments, musical night..

Popular Post..

This is like singing a flop song..
Lot of people here hungry for sparking sensations..
Socialising, Promoting, Publicising, Campaigning..
Here I have nothing to market..
My words although weights, will never sell..
Nor it will tell, things it's supposed to tell..
It'll continue to flow, till I find the origin..
It'll continue to glow, till I don't popularise..
This is just a  flamboyant, charismatic stone..
