RESTLESS COUCH

Twilight comes





The sun sinks away




Restless in the couch



My lonesome heart thumps !

GENTLY BEING

Long leaves serrated and green



Slender brown Bark

Tall and swaying to the breeze



Neither waiting nor seeking



Just gently being



The sturdy Ashoka tree

THE NIGHT RIDE

Old bike chugging




Mellow city lights



Gentle Embrace



Gushing breeze



Sweet nothings !

CRUEL LIFE

Cruel Road


Careless driver


The last whimper


Crushed now and lifeless


Tail, fur and paw


A once Cute face!

LITTLE DOG

Little dog at the door

Ears up, head down

Tail thumping!

Longing! waiting !

TURQUOISE SKY AND ROCKY TRUTH

The sky is turquoise

My mind, different a shade of blue

Sorrow is fleeting

Pain a mere illusion

Seeking for happiness 

The rocky truth!

RAIN TREE IN A CONCRETE JUNGLE

The gray weary walls standing tall

Windows with gusts of hot heavy air

Exhaust from the mounted air conditioners!

White clouds of chimney smoke

The humming silence of impersonal space

Within this concrete jungle

Embracing the gentle morning sun between its branches 

The single pink blossomed Rain tree!

VIOLET BLISS

The summer has began

The sky is blue , the clouds are sparse

Fresh and  lush green

The Pungai tree is in  full blossom

Under its cool shade

Sitting by the scattered blossums

Violet Bliss !

LEAKY PITCHER

Seasons have changed

The grass is brown and dry

Not different form their shadow

The dry silhouettes of trees

meandering  sands  remain

As reminding  remnants of the  once flowing stream

Not heeding to these signs

Oblivious in ignorance

I let my only pitcher leak!

SILENT HUM

The thumping heart


The racing blood


Restless feelings


Unfettered by all this


In the background


The silent hum of the mind
