Sweaty declaration

 


     Sweaty declaration
 Poetry with a sweaty smell!
 The poet cleans up the sweats of the mind!

Behind the bar but within the cell,
The poet goes on!

All the sunlight, all the darkness,
The commune of stars…passers by!

Split images form a total image
The poet cries, …. thought stops…. Pen stops!

The resolution to clean up the earth
For his love comes to a dot!

The poet signs the declaration.
His own death certificate !!

Harmony

       


    Harmony

You discovered the colour,
I found the beauty!

Sky is yours,
Moon is mine!

You blossomed into a flower,
I got the fragrance!

You called me a poet,
I got the poetry in you!

You wrote the testament,
I found the truth!

You painted the portrait,
Me is your canvas!

Without you I am no body,
Without me you are incomplete!

Bye Thames bye Caroline

This was composed on 31/12/1999, at London


  Bye Thames bye Caroline

Hundred years ! A century will add to the age !
Just wait Caroline ! Only few more moments !

Me will be old, but you Caroline !
Thames and you will remain eternal love !

My father, grandfather and his father,
All said good bye to you Caroline !

When my turn approaches I shall do..
Leave behind my collections and treasures !

Wait wait Caroline ! Let me witness !!
This century says “Good bye Thames Good bye Caroline”

I promised some one

 


I promised some one

Only my mind. .the unheard song..
Nothing.. nothing else is left alone !!
A virtual flower.. or a smile ..
Let  me present my words if you like !!
 
Where the road ends ..
Vicinity of field meets the sky,
Listen, listen my anxious mind,
Not a single door is left open !!

The storm blew off all evening candles,
Tune of the violin playing the symphony !!
All lyrics swept away..
Pin-dropped… silence.. audience !!

Heart trembled in expectation..  no more now,
Gurgle of clouds.. silence. .silence is the bliss!
Kneeling broke the rhythm. dance and music,
Whom do I blame. whom do you blame !!

Desire for love

                                                    Desire for love

                                Jungle scrapping the sky..
                                      Sun can not smile..
                       How the moon will peep or star wink!

           Heart filled with rubbles of my demolished home!
                           Death..death..and death only!!

                      We lived the earth for time unkown
                               Wall full of human shadows !
                       Bank of time what else left for you!!

                           A camels head high above..
                          Look! the demanding mind!
                    Runaway from blunder for a blunder!!

                    Unknown herbs and plants and trees..
                        A soothing land with sky above..
                              Sun... moon... stars...

                My soul, knowledge and desire for love !!

Twilight sold to darkness









             Twilight sold to darkness

                    Oh yes! Some day..
   Earth visibly impregnated and filled with desire!

           The mountain peak was anxious,
            with sun and clouds in his sides..

            Me a tree with spreaded wings,
             My shadows , You only there!!

                 Reflected in crystal dues!
                      Yes it was me...
                     May be! May be!

       At the bottom of a new destination,
                   A new blue sea...





 Captivated yet free in the shell of a twin pearls!!
              You! Oh! Yes! You with me...

               History now..  sold for a song,
           Gone with the winds at a virtual dock!!

        Repeated touch of the decaying moments.
               Eternal but again time bound..

                     Eternity is not for love,
                    Limps and limps to a dot.

       Yet revisit of the moments of love for you...
               Eternity never cares for the watch...

The divine light

 

The divine light

A stone became a flower!
Leaves appeared on a dead tree!
The entire desert turned an oasis!!

Life got its meaning!
Living itself is a joy!
Beauty in the eyes & fragrance in the breath!!

Every step is a moving forward!
Every next moment is discovery!
    Every eye presenting a smile!!

Keep your wand of blessings on me!
I am grateful!!

Do I believe it!!

        Do I believe it!!

The flower plucked will dry on your hand,
The colour, the fragrance will disappear,
Prayed for the sun, now crave for the moon,
The moon smiles, you do not look at the sky!

Colour, fragrance, sun, moon, you lost them all,
Only the sky full of stars remain, they all smile,
The winking - twinkly stars belong to no one
Do not say ‘I love’, you do not mean it ever!

 Road goes straight, ends one day to the grave,
Will find me waiting there, yours only for ever!!

The lady with a veil is she a dream !

The lady with a veil is she a dream!

Said stop calling me – my throat stopped!
My heart has become louder and louder!
Why and what is this bond?

Intangible is the word written on the paper,
That is our relation called,
But what I do, my tears and sweat is true!!

She smiled and patted me on the back,
I don’t know how many horsepower I got,
I am ready, I shall win her a war!!

Looked at every where, mountain to the sea,
Where are you! Where are you!
Reply came from within “here I am”!

Love is the word, our past and present called,
Today’s trauma, was dream, sweet yesterday,
Tomorrow, future, I don’t know, I don’t know!!

Poetry

      Poetry
Poetry never stops !
We fail to record them,

Our mind never stops
We try to ignore them !

Our love flows.
We thing they are dried up !

Sun and moon smiles,
We can not see them !

Poetry and poetry and poetry ,
Our life itself is the poetry !!
