Come let me hold you

 

Look

Beneath the layers,

oh, look past the obverse peels. 

A beautiful heart!

Fantasy #writephoto

Dreams, imaginations, fantasies, 

are all but seeds of reality. 

They infuse us with spirit, 

to make efforts to reach the sky and stars. 

This haiku has been written for such spirit. 

Crude, rough sandcastles, 

on foundations of our dreams, 

rests our universe.

For only so long, 

like dwindling ripples in stream,

Wild raucous laughters,

Deep within, our heavens

Lavish skies, heart seeks
that tempting plush plenitude.
Heaven, deep within.

For Ma

Our identities,
your reflections, in bitparts.
Proudly, your daughters.

Fire of love

The embers smoulder,
the fumes rise, subtly subdued.
Love reveals itself.

Defying winters

Embers of passion,
defying solemn winters.
Folks, making merry.
Around the bonfire,
gratitude and revelry.
Life, celebrated.
Howling icy winds,
silenced, their grim might broken.
Strong, the zeal to live.
Echoes of folk songs,
vibrating through the dark night.
Spirit, thus kindled.
The sun reclaims reign,
the sultry siestas past.
Zestful, the kites soar.

Heartiest greetings for Lohri and Makar Sakranti

On the edge

In the last fortnight, there have been incidents when the air quality of our national capital has deteriorated alarmingly. It is the wake up sign.. If not us then who, if not now then when... The mother nature is waiting for some answers...

The thick shroud of smog;
goodbye whisper of autumn,
stuck in hazy dusk;
the raging echo of our callousness;
dismal glower of Nature;
looming question of doom!

Thy name, my refuge

As you walk with Guru, you walk in the light of existence, away from the darkness of ignorance, you leave behind all the problems of your life.
A haiku inspired from this thought... Heartiest greetings for Gurupurab...


Thy name’s holy thread,
mends my tattered and frayed soul,
in thee, my refuge.

Winters calling

The winter winds howl, 

smokey vapors of breath rise,

Growing up

Cotton candies to elaborate meals, 

in the twinkling of an eye, 

the whole paradigm shifts, 

Young and undaunted, 

the soulful song of spirit, 

forever crooning.

Love heals

Shattered to pieces,
love comes shining through the cracks.
And our soul is healed.

Welcome winters

Winter’s wailing winds. 

We wake up to dark outside.

Diwali on my mind

Vibrant sparkling hearts,

breaking through the darkest night,

pious rejoicing.

The Indian Valentine

Big beautiful smiles,
dreams floating in kohl smeared eyes.
Festive date with moon.

Lanterns light the night,
