All through muggy evenings
With dull openings
City suffered Shedding
Hot tears boiling
Its roads were soaked
In tremendous heat Bathed
Its strangled breath choked
Its streets were tangled
The season's innocent biology
Was beyond in thoughts ideology
Sky simply squeezed out
Heat straight from its heart
City 's burning pupil began to smart
Inexorable calculus of time
Moved  rather slow at prime

My anguished spirit like a bird
Beating against the tree top in grid
Craving for death to get rid
Deep in the heart 's core resting
With pitying emotional rain fall arresting
Each pattering hoof of its drops
Settling on mind' s roof with hops
Seeing the grave to be a fine quiet place

In the tumultuous of fast moving life
With an urge to break the monotonous strife
I went near the river side found an idle boat
I decided to undertake sailing on the boat
Wearing a life jacket I was all ready to float
Humming my favorite tune I smoothly sailed
And covering a distance came to the depth
Though I struggled to rov at length
A sudden heavy wind brought jerks and turbulence
Boat 's smooth movement got obstacled losing its balance
Lines of worry overshadowed and the enthusiasm disappeared
The boat' s direction towards the shore was little eclipsed
Somehow I started rowing the boat under horrendous circumstances
Soon I touched the shore and breathed sigh of relief

In this night's vigil
Worried a little
I dream about my fields
Thinking of its yields
Golden harvest
At its best
Smiling crops
With stalks props
Sun invisible
Stars visible
My dreams await for sunshine
The smiling crops would be mine
Let the stars just sleep
And snore deep
Let the moon rest
Sun rise making it arrest
My longing increases

The magnificent glowing dot applied on forehead
Appearing majestic between the brows round and spread
It invokes readily the conscience of the on looker
Like a head  lamp red in color
Saves everyone from stumbling
Now a days it just adopts any form for fixing
A reflection that  of an enchanting pendant
Gushes through one's vision
Attracts with its dimension

Individual self often narrates
Universal self communicates
Both live in soul like shade and light
Create sometimes delight
Prospers with enjoyment
As a result of united embodiment
Who knows this individual self
Is a spirit ascetic or aesthetic
And universal self
Is a spirit  benign or benevolent

The goddess drowns
Her smiling image does not frown
Unconcerned that she is going to disappear
For a complete year
How happily she was welcomed
All sang about her pride and cheered
Nine days of worship brought her glory
Creating crowd and history
Now leaving just clay and straw structure
With a tragic law seen with aperture
She is dragged out in the chariot
Carried on shoulders with sound of clarinet
Once Bethroned and triumphant
Now dispersed with chants
Once idol dressed in gold
Later reduced to mud
But she will return
We have to wait for another year

On the forlorn shores
Where one does not get bored
An old coconut tree stands
With good strand
It carries its age
In savage
Ripe and mellow with the dusty signs of time
Appears in prime
It breaks eternity of silence
With some elegance
with the falling of its coconuts

Loneliness lives inside my agony
Plays with the sad strings of harmony
In lake of tears eyes become moist
Fear of death erases vanity in haste
At the heart vast marshes settle
It takes mind to a lone land brittle
Silence of empty sky gazes down
Far off an eagle circles down
Moon hesitantly calls from roof
As it stands all aloof
How much loneliness is filled in atmosphere
Soft dawn refuses to break everywhere

Gladness of morning glory erases boredom
It's amazing to watch nature's wisdom
Sparrows with plumage brown
Perching at my window pane frown
Sun sprays it's rays with elegance
Rose spreads all around its fragrance
Blades of grass pierce the feet
Dew drops moist settled in greet
Mountains towering high just invite
Crystal clear flow of river water excite
Sketches of dawn zoom bringing divinity

Some people in the rush of years
Whom I loved appear and disappear
Some have won the rats race
Some left behind retired with grace
Some shattered in their life
Others scattered in their strife
Fear hangs on me, whom shall I meet
Whom shall I just call and greet

Tender leaves of hope blossoms in my heart
Rests for a while and is not ready to depart
Hopes swims on it bladders in my mind
Allows memories to rewind
My high blown pride cools down
When becomes weary and torn down
Pangs and fear often try to erase vain hopes
But it never dies just stays and does not elope

You always stun me
When you do not stop me
From wailing
Or shouting
When click sound of your
Metal walking stick stop your
Balance or
When your lips quiver
In hunger
When you stop me from crying
You tend in garden roaming
With bent body
You breath hardy
Sparkle in your eyes
Seeing the rose flower
With the energy you live
You stun me mom
At ninety eight

My old ancestral village brings back memories that got replenished from the edges of mind's vicinity
The charm and grandeur of the tall coconuts 's green sublimity
Visiting it after decades fetches dreams before the illusive vision 's intensity
The subtle sound of flowing stream and the jingling of bullock cart offers the spark of music
Even the stars as if twinkle in rhythmic motion creating magic
Moon beam  spread grand extravaganza of light
Fatigue ends and the energy gets revitalized and the brain sprouts in delight

While staring at the sea
Without much glee
I felt the evening
Like any other evening
But the sea I was watching
Appeared rather shrunken
The tide in me was swollen
I began to grow like eternity
My ego was risen as necessiy
I failed to analyze my intensity
Lost my vision in totality

In the midst of certain uncertainties
I lose my temper's integrities
Change of Weather arrives with its specialities
My roof reclines over me with all possibilities
Encroaching my senseless sensibilities
Doors and windows of my house measure my compatibilities
I with my head embedded in the pillow choke in disparities
Rain drops piercing the roof sprawl through roof dropping off, disturbing roof's capabilities
Leakage of roof introduce all the casualties
Ink with which I have jotted my poem spread on  white sheet of paper remind my responsibilities

It is strange to keep my identity
Safe as it's own entity
Gets estranged by its sanctity
Questions often its integrity
Suffers from inferiority
Struggles with lack of posterity
Waits to come out seeking opportunity
Still lays buried in dark perpetuity

Happy are the rocks
Not ready to receive mocks
They plant themselves
Firmly on the ground's layers
Able to meet birds of different species
Who settle and sit on them with delicacies
Birds look all around as if bethroned
Feeling they are sitting on royal throne
Morning hours they chirp
Enjoy the surrounding with slip
Wait for feathered friends
And observe trends
Look for the fishes in the near pond
That lies on the ground
Make noise with their chirps
Swallow worms with burp

One morning
After lazy yawning
Just stare watching
My two year's old grand daughter
With cutest laughter
Having grown to stand on her feet
Gives me a new treat
Endeavors to touch the latch
Of my front door
I get at once to help her in opening the door
I hold her tiny fingers resting the toddler on my back
Under tender care assist
To open  the latch
It gives  a broad smile
Entire world appears on her feet
Tending and a toning with mirth
Which is a scene worth
The gates of eternity opened

Experiencing intricate Knots of moments that tangles around my life
The entangled brain wants to release and open simplifying it without much strife
Just my desires and longings keeps rummaging through the shelves of mind
And try to explore easier ways to spend the rest of life
smooth, but it appears a difficult task to find
The life is a mixture of varied blended, hues not so simple
If it would have been just plain without complications in ample
The wider spectrum of life would have been a bliss

I am too  scarce to occupy a space
But I have capacity to grace
Staring the vast sky
I want to fly
Often bees buzz around me
And I swallow my death in me
By giving up corpses
With life's lapses
Each second I am dissolved
And lose myself
Although when alive luminous
I feel I am credulous

Time flows
With heavy blows
Through literary veins
Word tries to gain
Lots of expression
With sharpness it is born
Amidst the emotion's thorn
Try to bloom
Taking shape groom
Erasing hurdles come out
Appear and sprout
New words generate
Along with time penetrate
Come into life and vibrate

Lovely feelings
Just keep reeling
So much touching
Highly  encouraging
Makes sentiments thrilling
Feelings of love
Rises from above
Like flying dove
Makes me rove
This feeling erases hatred
Its rays are widely spread
As cosy as bed
From the heart fed

I look for you
With wistful eyes
Long for you
Telling others good bye
With the waiting look
My emotions are hooked
Leaving my environments
And all engagements
My search for you begins
With the wet eyes
Dried teardrops my heart sighs
Like a baby missing its mother
I leave all my other relations
And do not bother
Like a fish parted from water
Twisting it's body
My desire to be with you
Tries to ensure your presence in every body

Ocean laps
The entire sea *****
My ideas slap
Waiting at the beach
With screech
Tidal waves touch my feet
And make them wet
The sea animals swiftly move
And the ships row
I feel the sand under my feet
Pierce and it's softness penetrates
Feel as if ocean laps whole earth
And the earth dance in mirth

My eyes were getting sleepy feeling
Mind a little dizzy and reeling
Night was falling
Darkness enthralling
Emotions sustaining
Stars kept twinkling
Some where far a dog was barking
I just kept smelling
The queen of night 's scent which was spreading
Through my window moon was peeping
An old song was on the recorder playing
My ears were listening
I do not know when the sleep entered and I was snoring

Voices behind calls me
When plunged in darkness
Keep inviting me
Speaks volumes of mystery
Creating history
The green pool of clouds
Away from my forgotten homes
Doors of it remains closed
Voices tumbles down
And the voices whispers

Seven colored silky touch
Gathered as much
Flowed all around
Danced at the clouds round
Beautiful rainbow look
As if drawn in the drawing book
Scattered and crumbled
Battered and buffed
Wilderness of rain
Just for a few second's strain
Like windows slightly opened
And suddenly wide opened
Doves flapping their wings
Flying in circular ring
Streak of lightening dazzling
Earth with the power of shining

Silently the lonely river flows
Reflection of radiant sun on it falls and glows
Snow around the bed thaws and dissolves
Shadows of birds  hang in vibrant and resolve
River gushes against sturdy rocks
Wrencher desires of mountains mock
Breeze blowing hugs the river quietly
Butterflies Imprisoned under sun move softly
Glorious sight, magnificent glimpse turn the saga of vision vast

I often yearn to steal the vast splendour spread around me upon this earth
Where I just roam and wander stepping in rhythmic motion with mirth
The waterfalls near my house beguile the heart of spectators
Who undertake a mission to get drenched in its flow so spectacular
The birds melodiously chirp showcasing their sound
And the vividness of atmosphere graces all around
A young girl takes shower under the force of waterfalls singing a note
Presenting prodigious talent to capture the listeners who have time to denote
Ferns and twigs along with the bushes entrance the mind
The exquisite scenic Vista of merry plants just bind
Travelers jubilate forgetting worldly pangs

None of us would ever know
As to what stored above
What would become of us
Dragging our life
Crying with strife
Dull pain persisting
Turbulent Era insisting
Leaving repercussions
Tangles of the veins
Bringing ruins
Whole system pulling down
Struggles pouring down

Picnic near the sea side
With sands so wide
Feet embedded in the sand
Feel softness at hand
Aroma of roasted corn rise
White dove fly uprise
Tasty dishes invite
Hunger in the stomach ignite
Sip of coffee freshnening
Orange peel refreshing
Fishes are floating
And boat 's mast are jumping
High tide is alarming
Pressures wind is forming

May we be together
Holding each other
Near the sea with cheers
Listening to waves without fear
Saying sweet things in ear
Allowing love to rise its gear
Without fearling aboute seers
surrounding  and eyeing clear
May we together bear
Pains touching at the life's rear
Stand hand in hand near

Awesome weather few rain drops falling on my  head and wetting my cheeks
A black cat worried of getting Drenched trying to hide under my porch mewing meek
The loose plasters of roof allowing the raindrops to leak from the roof
And my pet dog sitting under the table feeling aloof
The wet floor in need of a *** to get filled by the leakage awaits
The dark hours without electricity loses my gaiety with its trait
The boiled tea over the oven is getting split everywhere
The dry piece of bread gets drier under the shelf
I lazily yawn and gulp it pitying my own self

My life is born in a night of pain
Having absolutely no gain
My grieving shelf
With painful self
Want to witness gorgeous sunrise
Coming out of dismal uprise
Doomed to throb hard
Singing endlessly the bard
Of impaired thoughts
My life wants to experience
Nurtured dreams of eloquence

Ugly memories clumsily cover the present
Absurd happenings of the past appear quite indecent
Mind with its un cherished desires innocent
Combined with heart's coincidences ascent
Soul caught within the turmoil is in cresent

Through the walls of hut
Thrill of joy keeps my mouth shut
My huts muddy structure makes me rest
It's earthly smell arrests
Travails of age create as if bring old era
I recognize the hurricane lamp
Lighting up my earth in this new era
Standing with mute lips my lamb tumbles
Eats grass and rumbles

Dusty tracks touch the life's flowing river
River that passes through situation's rugged rocks to empower
On the shore of incident's river bed burned pyres of throttled love that suffers
Mute pathos of crimson dreams in the eyes buffer
Walls of emotions emit feelings to discover
Souls try to witness festive moods lighter
But granites of thoughts with fears shiver
Naked trees around life's circumference, whose leaves quiver
Exhausted hopes rock like shadows to rediscover
Whispering butterflies fly with sweetness to shower
And laughter reverberates at our life's land of sorrows with veil to cover

I am so delicate
Nothing to lubricate
A twig to celebrate
Any time I break
Keep on creek
Without any shriek
So gentle and weak
Appearing meek
Am after all a twig
Nothing in me to hold a wig
Broken in two pieces in half
Lying on the mid road just half
Laid side by side
None to mourn over my death
Vehicle passes with mirth

I remember past
Absolutely fast
No amnesia
With mental media
Remember as a child
Crab apples I relished
My kith and kin stared
But I never shared
No guilt gulping the chocolates
Without offering to classmates
Eating sandwiches
Standing at the beaches
Quite alone hiding from the beggar
Who timidly watched just eager
Sefish was I, yes said the memory
That lingered

I burrowed deep and built my abode
Clearing woods and stones made a narrow road
Also made a wire mesh compound
Listening to Squirrel's sound
Paved the floor with black soil
Four towering walls never allowed the house to boil
Carpet of grass outside was laid
None to speak with nothing was said
Stars at night marched like a thousand little lamps
And the weather was always chill and damp
But I longed for the warmth

Shadows are dismal and quiet
Scattered away from light
Creating  some mystery delight
Shuddering with gust of wind
Goes on penetrating with rewind
Falling on claustrophobic surrounding
Round and round falling
Scared sometimes with their own identity
Image casting away in clarity

Beyond the ruptured bridge
I roam near the ridge
Of my sleepy village
Take a little advantage
To watch the glimpses
That eclipses
An evening awaits
Enthusiastic evening gaits
Pilgrims on the move
With lamps in their hands
To show them the right path
The memory tries to trek
Mind is on wreck
Luminous eyes watch from summit
The line of men and women and children
Their foot stamps at beating of drums
Keeping the rest mum
They go on non stop
Mile stone shines every mile
Evening turned misty even now awaits
For night to come

Morning hours
Sky radiant with cheers
Different colors
Crimson son delivers
Rays of hope spreads
Green parrot treads
With messages of peace
Sparrow's chirp with ease
Watching the nature
Through lenses aperture
Birds are ready to fly
With the winds blow
Imaginations cling
Seeing sun's orange tinge
Brain's nest drops birds of thoughts
Which are badly sought

The grief of green leaf is still all fresh
The dream of yellow leaf is to refresh
Sunflower blooms stays fresh
Its bright leaf does not enmesh
Shines like emerald
Spreads like cobalt
Does not wish to rot or turn yellow
But does not miss being mellow
But realizes the fate of rotting
Waits for another spring

Constant inquisitiveness
Vision's clearness
Attaining solutions
With resolution
Sowing seeds of research
To develop and march
In the battle of discovery
Without compromising difficulties
Never shattering hopes
Like a fighter Groping
Achieving success finally
Presenting to the world

The priesting silence of tree startles
I wait for it to sway and move at least as turtle
When I do not hear its  gasp
I feel the sting of  vasp
I die for Earth's scent that it gives
Which penetrates in my nosetrils
Whenever speedily allows the wind to blow
The air whispers through its branches with special glow
Makes me fresh but when it turns silent
I feel like the sorrow of butterfly in torment

The tiny bee that sits on the soft petal
Is never in haste in its battle
The flower welcomes it gently
Bee accepts elegantly
As the flower  sways
Bee feels blessed and waves
Enjoying honey
Without harming and being funny
The flower is friendly
The bee expresses gratitude by carrying pollen
And by spreading its sweetness swollen

Thousands people crawling
Perishing and strolling
In deep mourning
Hearing them  moaning
Two ships striking and sinking
Screaming tearing their throat
Dreaming till the last breath floats
Compassion filled heart
As if suffering was of my part
Awful weight of pity sought

What a glow
Raindrop on the meadow
Like pearl shinning to show
Drizzling low
Wetting the earth slow
Making the pool of water flow
With wind's naughty blow
Farmer's song of seed's sow
Parrot's talk show
Gardener's lawn mow
The temperature getting low
