I fell for your looks.
You fell for my books.
Now my book shelf is empty.

Hmm..I am searching for "Ego Free Zone".

Someone told me that it's located here,
in the poet's conclave.

Could you, my poet friend, show me the way.

Words spin their own stories.

They spiral into epics and master pieces at their own discretion.

Much of the greatness conferred on people was actually borrowed from words.

Words not humans matter in the end.

If you had used plain, descriptive words in our conversations instead of your cryptic phrases that made no sense in the context, I would have happily lived with you for the rest of my life.

There was no reflection of the moon
in the sea waters, eventhough it was a new moon night.

Why?

The sea thought that it's a dark moon night.

I was shocked to see the sky empty one day.

Without the twinkling stars, it looked forlorn and ugly.

I pinned all the poems on to the empty sky, painstakingly. It started twinkling again.

Nature, you have lavished me with free gifts of air, light, and other valuables over the years.

What have I given you, in exchange?

Nothing, except for polluting your gifts.

When I called you loudly, you didn't even look at me.

Instead, your attention was drawn to­ 
the bird in the tree, which was 
frantically calling  its mate.­

At that moment it seemed to me that you were unconcerned about my presence in your life.

Euphoria of greatness
Eshwara Prasad Apr 2021
I can't write my normal poor poetry for a while after writing a swashbuckling poem.
After the euphoria of greatness has worn off, my poor poetry begins to run through my veins onto the paper once more.

Hesitant Rain Drop

The rain drop slid down the leaf.
It was hesitant to leap off the leaf because it could see floodwaters gushing down the street below causing devastation everywhere.

The agile Hawk swooped down on the unsuspecting Pigeon.
Plucked it alive.
The onlookers cursed the Hawk for its cruel behaviour.
But they were oblivious to the fact that nature pardons it's sins.

A lone Leaf went into a free fall.
It softly landed on the ant hole.
A bustling empire descended into permanent darkness.

Let us ride life together.
The journey may be long

let us ride it together.

Life is hope, life is joy,
Life is  opportunity,
the future is shining
let us ride life together.
