Vasant Vibes

Basant Panchami heralds the arrival of spring, painting the earth in vibrant hues of yellow and awakening hearts to new beginnings. Dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the embodiment of wisdom, music, and the arts, this festival inspires creativity and spiritual growth. In this tanka, I’ve woven the essence of spring’s melodies with the divine grace that breathes life into every word penned. The mustard blooms, the playful breeze, and the quill’s gentle strokes echo the celebration of nature’s renewal and the soul’s poetic journey. May these lines dance with the same joy and devotion that Basant Panchami evokes.


Melodies of spring. 
Oh! By Thy Grace, my quill drafts, 
songs of lush bloomings.
Beneath the mustard awnings, 
winds sing, life flirts, in Thy love.

Happy Basant Panchami! May your quill always dance to the melodies of inspiration.

Welfare unto all 
Rab rakha

Faint glimmer in heart

Ripe autumn air’s come to bless. Showering sweet November caress. We could be holding hands and walking, Silent but still talking. Faint glimmer in heart. White winters, no flowers in sight. Frosty December moonless night. And here I am hoping for your arm, To keep me safe, to keep me warm. Faint glimmer in heart. The year twenty twelve is leap they say. Oh! I can hope some more, there’s one more day. Hope for smiling summers with you, Hope for blessings to rain through. Faint glimmer in heart. Dying, not yet vanished, There’s a faint glimmer in this heart. Linking with Trifecta : Week Fifty Linking with Velvet Verbosity : 100 Words

Showstopper's Yesterday

The 12 inch heel, the confident gait, The measured steps, the sudden halt, The blush on cheeks, the smoldering eyes, The hands on hips, head held high, The silken gown, barely there, A tilt of neck, balanced well, The sultry glance, timed right, Perfect half twirl, played twice, With a graceful swirl, she turns back. The world looks on with stolen breath, Oohs, aahs, applauds, encores. The showstopper’s yesterday, Now hangs in a gallery, Fading parchment, guarded unnecessarily. No shadows of glamour come a-chasing, For vacant eyes and sagging skin, For shattering illusions, hanging questions, Am I never going back?

The pain is all gone

It wasn't the first time. And it would not be the last. She could not stand them suffering like that. She asked for his consent. He expressed his willingness in whimpering sounds. And the pain was gone – forever. Linking up with Trifecta : Trifextra - Week Nineteen
