Smear of love

During Holi, vibrant hues blend into one another, mirroring the union of lover and beloved, and leaving behind an indelible stain of love. This poem celebrates that transformation—where differences dissolve, and hearts merge into a single, passionate embrace. It captures the spirit of unity and eternal togetherness, as the colors of life meld into one harmonious expression. Through these vivid images, we are powerfully reminded that in love, all barriers vanish, and souls truly unite.

Such, the smear of love.

One shade ends, other begins, 

this fusion seamless. 

Welfare unto all 

Rab rakha 

Those were the best days

Highest landing shot.
Box cricket game on terrace,
ball falls, two storeys.

Remnants of war

The remnants of war,

frozen but still explosive. 

Deadly legacy.

Rab rakha 

Gurgles of hope

Bottomless ravine. 

And gurgling within this gorge 

zeal to rise and shine.
