Quenching the thirst
of every passerby

As they eagerly fill their cups
Greedily twisted
Squeakily turned
Washerless and shaky
All caring, but
uncared for !
The rusty road side tap,
drips and sighs!

DRIFTING RAFT
This river is
endless
No shore is in sight
Lost in its encircling
currents
Oh! How long can
this raft keep drifting away !
CREAKING EVENING
The cold winter is receding
The summer creeps in
Crickets creaking
in the evening
With clouds passing in the sky
sitting under this thatched roof
I sit here and long for you!
WORDLESS RIVER
No river, no raft!
No finger ; no moon!
No seeker; no sought!
No buddha! No buddha nature !
In the path of enlightenment
No word remains !
WEEPING TREE
The sun shines a hotter shade of crimson
The shadows are long
The clouds are sparse
Alone among the parched barren landscape
Reaching out to the heavens
Shedding silent
tears of yellow
The tree of
wisdom weeps!
MIRAGE OF CONCEIT
Bored, dull and tired
Of life and subsistence
Plerophorically blinded
Foolishly lame
Trapped in this self made
The heretic says!
Oh! Will the mirage of conceit ever go away !
LOST SHEEP
The forest is thick
The valley is dark
Far from the meadow-ed home
Bleating in shaken misery
The lost sheep wonders
“Why is it, I chose to stray”!
