New year - haiku

sun of new morning
rises on the horizon  
the new craze and zeal

Let's resolve
In the new year
to live happy

earth sets for
an other round of the sun
new year clicks

earth revolves
time travels in a line
year after year

goes to the
pages of history
one more year


pushes back the old
peeping down the new year
prepared to land

seen - no creature
in the entire valley
a white spread sheet

the snow fall
consumes grocery stock
road's being built

nothing's to drink
o my God! whisky bottle
not yet frozen

In deep waters
Invisible iceberg
titanic drowned


their tail
the kangaroos have
fifth leg 

Your name , ghazal

My heart beats for you, that never sleeps.
Ever since I have got it, your name it beeps.
Mind goes insane, looking for the wine;
Flavour and scent of  your name, that keeps.
And long to extinguish the thirst of heart;
For which from goblet to goblet it peeps.
Nothing else it finds, to quench the thirst;
For the unique wine of your name it weeps.
And from the two eyes of mine, not tears;
only and only water of your name seeps.

Beautiful clock, limerick

Bill bought the most beautiful clock
Hundred thousand dollars was its cost
It had got studded gems
Could speak the hours name
At three P.M. it said three O'clock 

Sown acacia seeds (sweet fruits)

sown acacia seeds 
fruits of apple or orange 
none can hope to reap   

going with duty 
some day certainly would fetch    
sweet fruits of karma

Happiness (more makes merry)

Farmer is happy, this year, having grown more crops.
Forests and frogs are happy having more rain drops.
Rich is happy having much more money to spend.
The employee is happy, if he gets extra increment.
The baby is happy for he gets more toys and play.
More time got together, makes happy lover's day.
Customer is happy, getting more value for same price.
The trader is happy when he makes more profit.
Drinker is happy for extra peg free in happy hours
The officer is happy once he gets more powers.
The free bird is happy, she has more space to fly.
Fish of sea is happy, the abundant water won't dry.
Fisherman is happy with more fishes in his basket.
Everyone goes happy when given a free gift packet.
I get happy always, when get up from sleep of night.
Because, I have got each day, one more day of life.

New haiku

far horizon
the sky bends
to kiss the earth

swallowed in fog
the ball of fire
sky worried

storms
to disturbances of sky
earth looses its peace

sky is filled
by vulture and eagle
battle ended

each moment
I see new pictures in sky
roaming clouds

murder of a tree
makes homeless
many birds


trees stand to give
fruits and shadow
fall to give wood

rainbow
a fair of colors
in the sky


shoots in sky
arrows of the light
rainbow


make the earth
her own sons bare
removing trees

birds sing
in first rays of sun
darkness goes


my eyes open
in the first rays of sun
songs of the birds

the birds yell
before I say to any one
'good morning'

Fire


Small match stick
not only extinguishes
the fire of stomach,
raising fire to cook food
but also burns to ashes
the biggest lot of woods.


and fire set by the tongue
burns the minds and soul

fire set in heart can burn the rain

Makes the athletes fly,
sound of the pistol, fired;
on the athletics ground,
filled fire of conquest in their hearts.

He is one and only one

people in this world
speak thousands of languages
offer prayers in their own

who listens all those
where does he live? I don't know
and how does he understand

but one thing I know
He is one and only one
all the words blend in His ears

He listens even
the words I have not spoken
and gives the graces of life

Yes Madona your's very nice and clear

Shit! wrong number, I tried Mr. Xavier

Bingo lingo

Bingo Lingo

People reach clubs, with a great zeal.
Buy the bingo cards, hope for best deal.
Sit in the hall, made their brain sharper.
Wait eagerly, for first call of the Caller.

Sit calm and quite, players, everyone.
Like they're set, for college examination.
Bingo game is hosted, by a lovely team. 
But hardly let come true, my dream.

I too get excited, to play there Bingo
Sometimes stuck in luck, sometimes lingo.
Caller calls thirty one, get up and run.
I go on waiting, bakers bun sixty one.

I often get confused in tees and teens.
Called sixty, heart listens sweet sixteen.
I do mix-up twenty five and thirty five,
whether it's duck and dive or jump and jive.

Lucky seven, never gives, slice of heaven.
When need number ten, goes to uncle Ben.
Too number four, hardly knocks my door.
Sometimes wait fiftyfour, to clean the floor.

One of the Kelly's eyes, has always defied.
Lucky number five, only keeps me alive.
Once claimed 'Bingo' of being early bird.
The call went bad because of mis-heard.

Any colour goes; yellow, orange or blue.
Even top of the shop doesn't favour too.
Eighty eight goes, to the ladies who are fat.
They shop the house, I keep on to wait.

I catch the legs eleven and little duck fast.
But that doesn't fetch, any fruitful upshot.
All times I wish, to listen from the caller.
Numbers of my choice for twenty dollars.

It's a fact together, we come here for fun.
Time pass is aim, conquest next concern.
We win or not the prize, doesn't matter.
We win lot of fun, company and chatter.

Halwa

Best sweet dish of Indian cuisine is 'halwa'
As a refreshment or as dessert, it creates 'jalwa'.
Suji halwa, moong dal or made of carrot;
each and every variety of it, is loved by all.
It is liked by children, young and old as well.
As one inhales its smell, his tongue swells.
Every one's delight, but the old people's favour.
Though one is toothless, can easily devour.
To sweeten relationships, the Indians greet
guests arrived at home with the 'halwa treat'.
Indian new bride takes entry into the kitchen
making the halwa as her first dish preparation.
I see love and sweetness in every family of India.
I am sure, it is, because they eat sweet 'halwa'.





Loved by all; youth, child, the old as well.
Best sweet dish of Indian cuisine 'halwa'
Carrot; suji or of moong dal, tongue gets swell.
Loved by all; youth, child, the old as well.
Heart gets delightsed as one inhales its smell,
As refreshment or dessert, it creates 'jalwa'.
Loved by all; youth, child, the old as well.

Shadow of war

God gives splendid stage
and melodies of music
to dance in heavens
but man creates tunes of canons
thereby make hell their havens

God confers the clouds
to rain drops to quench your thirst
and bring happiness
but you choose clouds of nuclear
to rain blood of mankind 

lives get crushed in
revenges and reprisals
of human causes
anguish and pain rise to sky
soars high shriek of survivals

remembrance we owe
who died for the cause of war
was muse of some one
I wonder were they human 
who chose killing of mankind

Account locked

I needed money urgently but got shocked.
Got a message, my bank account was locked. 
Because I had made three wrong attempts.
So my chance to open my account, now ends.
I  made a call to the bank's customer care.
With them, some personal details I did share.
To create a new password, bank suggested.
After received a new, through email posted.
Own coding system, the bank had evolved.
Alpha, numeric and special character involved.
For security reasons, change password fortnightly,
Face consequences, if done a mistake slightly.
Numerous ID and codes, we may have to use.
May be good for security but leads to confuse.
It happens often, I forget one or the other code
Because I use  many accounts and payment modes.
In houses and offices, now we have automatic locks
And to open the doors, we need the code words.
It is possible, you may not open lock of your dwell.
For not remembering the keyword or wrongly spell.

I dream a kind of world

I dream such a kind of world,
where prevails just peace and love.
I dream ...

Where the nature lives own life
and the human being his own.
No way the flowers wither,
no way the creatures moan.
Spring sings all the ways,
and on trees, the chirping birds.
I dream ...

The creatures live for love
no one hurts any other.
No one face the distress
and no one shades tears.
No one lives beggarly life,
or suffers hunger and thirst.
I dream ...

Takes place no war or battle,
where no arms and ammunitions.
There should not be a reason
to have the sort of prison.
To quench their selfish craves
no one proceeds to shade blood.
I dream ...

There we have pleasing bright days,
happy people with self respect.
Needs of everyone is fulfilled
according to his choice of taste.
Every home is filled with joy,
and illuminating rays of hopes.
I dream ...

Sun gives the warmth to all,
and the moon, soothing rays.
Flowers make the place aromatic, 
shining stars embellish the ways.
Everyone is blessed by God
and everyone feels most cared.
I dream ...

Vanished acts of immorality,
no one commits the sin.
Everyone goes on righteous,
bears the holy souls, within.
Everyone feels he has got 
in the paradise his abode.
I dream ...

Trick or treat / Halloween limerick


Children are out for 'trick or treat'
Wanted dollars for their own greet.
They would go to canteen,
on next day of Halloween,
buy sweet pastries, they would eat.

2
Came to my door, three horrible ghosts.
Looking on them, I was scared almost.
To bring treat, I went in.
On return, were not seen.
The ghost were hiding, behind the post.

Three little girls, were out in a team.
To have full bag candies, was their dream.
They knocked, the old man's door.
A ghost came and did roar.
They ran away with very big scream.



I have observed, mostly my dustbin,
happy and cheerful on Halloween.
Because fills it's tummy,
thing it finds most yummy. 
That's fresh skin and pulp of pumpkin.

I am the grass

I am the grass, for you most neglected thing.
Though I offer my most, for creature's living.
I am available to you for free, as a natural gift.
For cultivation, irrigation, no work you need.
I just drink water, but feed numerous of animals.
In the meadows,  I am passion of your cattle.
they all like my taste grasshoppers to caterpillar
Run for me horses, rabbits, kangaroos and deer.
Rendering services to others, is my prime norm
I be abode for many of the insects and worms
Your feet be safe, so I lay as the carpet for you
and dust doesn't ride your head, I take care too.
I decorate pretty your lawns and the parks.
Having medicinal values, also serve as herbs.
I be there in your sports serving you as turf.
Keep your word green and costume your earth.
I feel my duty to keep clean your atmosphere.
Though you escape yours, to take my care.

Window across the street

I opened the window panes to peep out
what occurred in the street
People walking through my street;
I closed them not to let peep.

There was an other window facing
on the other side of the street
On a fine day sight went across
and there, my eyes got fixed.

Thence upon, I used to get look
when that window panes would open
Kept watching there constantly
as my eyes had got frozen.

A pretty picture across the window
caused my heart to spurt
It became a routine to peep
that always cooled down my heart.

Gradually, the panes began to open
aligned at the same time,
Looked like those were controlled
remotely by hands of mine.

Game of simultaneous opening
of the panes went on for few weeks
Finally, day came when she knocked
my door, crossing the street.

and melodies of music
to dance in heavens
but man creates tunes of canons
thereby make hell their havens

God confers the clouds
to rain drops to quench your thirst

but you choose clouds of nuclear
to rain blood of mankind

anguish and pain rise to sky
soars high shriek of survivals

remembrance we owe
who died for the cause of war
was muse of some one
I wonder were they human 
who chose killing of mankind



God conferred you heart
to pour kindness love and joy
what really happens
you fill ill desires and wrath
choose to destroy peace of the world

Halwa, Indian's delight


Favorite sweet dish of Indian cuisine is 'halwa'
As a refreshment or the dessert, it creates 'jalwa'.
Suji halwa, moong dal or made of carrot;
each and every variety of it, is loved by all.
It's liked by children, young and old as well.
Any one inhales its smell, his tongue swells.
Every one's delight but old people's favor.
Though he is toothless, can easily devour.
To sweeten relationships, the Indians greet.
Guests arrived at home with the 'halwa treat'.
Indian new bride takes entry into the kitchen,
cooking 'halwa' as her first dish preparation.
Love and sweetness on every tongue of India.
I am sure;  is because they eat sweet 'halwa'.

jalwa = delight, suji = thick wheat flour, moong=green gram  

Lucky visitor

'You are hundred thousandth lucky visitor.'
Read,  as I open the screen of my computer.
Hundred times, I visited
but no new visitor added
I suspect, not my luck but lure some cheater.

Nursery rhyme dinosaur

Dinosaur! dinosaur! where do you live?
My dad says, you live in the forests,
But you live with me, in my toys.

Dinosaur! dinosaur! what do you eat?
My mom says, you eat leaves of the trees.
But I see you always there, in my toys.

Dinosaur! dinosaur! what do you do?
My brother says, you wander, for no work.
But I see you amuse, children in the toys.

Dinosaur! dinosaur! where do you sleep?
My sister says, you don't have any bed,
But I see you laying, within my toys.

Death and bride

All of sudden a girl fell in my arms
she became my wife and I did embrace
I know she is an Indian bride
so not going to leave until I die
Death! you'd also come all of sudden
i will keep the door open
i would greet you like an Indian bride
because you have to go after my life
it may be evening night or the noon
i will be celebrating my honey moon
i would have told my kins to organise
the procession unto the paradise
i shall put new bright cloths
we will be celebrating ceremony
before unseen

embrace and cuddle

embroidered


I dream a kind of world


I dream a kind of world;

I dream ...

Where nature lives own life
and the human being, own.
No way the flowers wither,
no way the creatures moan.
Springs sing all the ways,
on the trees; chirping birds.
I dream ...

The creatures live for love
no one hurts the other.
No one face the distress
and no one shades tears.
No one lives beggarly,
suffers hunger and thirst.

There's no war or battle,
no arms and ammunitions.
There should not be reason
to have the sort of prison.
To quench their selfish craves
no one shades the blood.
I dream ...

There we have bright days,
happy people with self respect.
Their needs are fulfilled
according to choice of taste.
Every home is filled joy,
illuminating rays of hopes.
I dream ...

Sun gives the warmth to all,
and moon, the soothing rays.
Flowers make aromatic and
shining stars embellish ways.
Everyone is blessed by God
and everyone feels cared.
I dream ...

Vanished acts of immorality,
no one commits the sin.
Everyone goes righteous,
bear the holy souls, within.
Everyone feels in the paradise
they have got their abode.
I dream ...

Window across the street

I used to open window pans to peep out
what occurred in my street
Who were walking in, through the street;
I closed them, not to let peep.

There was an other window facing
on the other side of the street
On a fine day, my sight went across
and there, my eyes got fixed.

Thence upon, I became keen to wait
when the window pans would open
Kept watching there constantly
as my eyes had got frozen.

A pretty picture across the window
caused my heart to spurt
It became a routine to peep
that always cooled down my heart.

Gradually, the pans began to open
aligned with the same time,
Looked like the pans were controlled
remotely by hands of mine.

Game of simultaneous opening
of the pans went on for a week
Finally, the day came when she knocked
my door, crossing the street.

Butterfly life cycle

Butterfly lays the egg.
Egg grows into larva.
Larva is the caterpillar
that grows into pupa.
But pupa can not fly
so, grows into butterfly.

I am the grasss

Though I offer my most, for creature's living.
I am available to you for free, as a natural gift.

Haiku book / Pot of pearls

wait eagerly 
thirsty farms and farmers -
first rain

can’t go long
berry banana friendship
one shakes other shreds

shedding their old cloths
planned to have acquired new set
trees of the autumn

seeing trees naked
ashamed nature spreads over
snow to cover  

to celebrate spring 
trees would appear in
new makeover

his broken mirror
Sun sees in ponds lakes and seas
several faces

sunset and sunrise
change colors of sea surface
no one tires watching

once I went
to the Himalayas
my soul remained there

vehicle steering
endows me the direction
moving left and right

stars shine on sky
superstars on screen
eyes are pleased

rat at prayer
with grain in folded hands
cat stares at prey

butterflies fly far
and colors on little wings 
flowers stay with me

desert plants
keep reduced masses 
water concern

water is filler
coffee thought propeller
alcohol kicks

milk bottle cola
whisky then soup and syrup
progression of life

ugly larva
grows to pretty butterfly
cute cub-dreaded lion

thump of collision
causes fracture to bones
iron held by blood

fingers dance over
seven holed bamboo
sweetness blends in ears

pain taken over
by the new little angle
scream of joy

wind strokes
the body of ocean
emotions awake

wind pilfers to gift
clouds don’t hold stolen drops
rain back to ocean

dance on wings
of the butterflies
intense colors

vine rise to embrace
though tree doesn’t bend
vine 's love 

bird’s nest
on mulberry tree
a luxury house

reflect all colors
emotion sorrow torment and joy
tears are clear

stove ablaze
mother bakes
son breaks

unless blessed
creatures can’t live
God’s generosity

time an again
clouds borrow from ocean
before they rain

trees do not keep
even a single one for them
bequeath all the fruits

upset baby fans
his hands in front of face
fly on nose 

in veil
behind the clouds 
my two moons

lovebirds tuck straw
and build their of house of love
mating will follow

before man got wheel
knew to roll on  manure balls
insect June-beetle


dwindling health and wealth
I don’t know hell or heaven
drug takes to some where

not color of skin
icon of good or bad is deed 
each heart pumps same red 

for thirsty of blood
no place in humanity 
should walk to wolves town 

wind blows
the clouds away   
stars twinkle in joy

flowers blown in rain
stop current of water
stuck in the drain 

lovers of money
use the people for earning
others spend for love

stars are brighter 
moon illuminates the world
ego lives for self

one burning candle
keeps the darkness out of room
lit up the knowledge

the pearl's
tremendous value
out of shell

away from work
on my long vacations
getting with her, more

Sun goes home
now moon is on duty
change of shift


spring

hearts bloom and
sing melodies of nature
thump of spring

Sun extends time 
to look symphony of spring


sleep time lessened

jasmine opens
petals hearts and moods
the evening

love to Lord
gives eternal joy
you win over sin


earth

to milk till last drop
bosom is open for all
let's care mother earth

days left to dry
is its remaining life, 
fish of small pond

deserts in summer
turn pyre for wildlife
test of survival

spring's bright days   
Sun extends time to look
playing children

waves of her passion
lift up high tides in heart
lonely moments

to hold one needs
pots of faith respect duty
love’s flowing water

seeing sickness woe
old loose climb adventure
love to live yet

August 6, 45

drowned ethics
to down Japanese to atom
American spite

dying birdie sings
‘takes away human made cloud
Lord’s blessed own lives’

what was going to do,
would have preferred to suicide
if Paul Tibbets knew

Butterfly

so lucky
always find the lips open
butterflies

larvae eat snacks
butterflies drink the wine
through straw

who steals
butterflies or blossoms
colors of other

colors of rainbow
fly in the gardens
butterfly's wings

decor of garden
charm of children
butterflies

freshness, love and bliss
intense feelings, profound thoughts
bequeath the flowers

so easy to leave
my friend left several times
drug and drinks

bread we eat is wet
the sweat of farmers
and the laborers 

taken birth
every creature believes
would get feed


Night

speed of my pen
goes faster during nights
no thought congestion

when street lights are on

visible more clear
dark side of city

Thomas Edison
worked till late nights in lamp light
invented a bulb

the whole day I pass
waiting for night to arrive
I love my dinner

scripting a paper 
forms book order dollar 
ships love and value
 
is he beautiful
or it’s magic of my eyes
moon has no reply

fall
when blowing wind stops
things blown with 

screamed loud
seeing herself in pieces
mirror broken

who pushed on to earth
It was superb in heaven
naughty angel you!

you can confiscate
the whole universe
book is such place


Grass


many creatures 
survive on this natural gift
the wonderful grass

no cultivation
no man done irrigation
grass cattle's free feed 

people’s love
municipality’s pride
green parks

between the wickets
there is carpeted grass turf
a playing pitch

by mowing grass
I keep my lawn neat and cute
neighbors envy 

every morning
I get up from sleep
see a new sunrise 

she offers flowers
everyday to the almighty
hope Lord accepts

hope He will do
all my impossible work
I leave to God

darkness I face
hope to get surely
a match stick

plastic lego
building the Eiffel tower 
children’s game

trees stand
for our longing
do we too?

prepare food for tree
and be food of creatures
the leaves


smile

feel-good of heart
is the happiness
smile it's reflection

gateway
to pierce into the heart
the smile

innocent smile
pulls everyone
the child gives    


choke the veins
your hurry worry
and curry

doctor lays
extra tube in heart
cleaning fails

burns together
cigarette lips and lungs
chain smoker

power earns money
money operates the power
our democracy

protection of-
charm bracelet


evil eyes repelled

blinds ?
- the evil eyes
eye pendant

inner or external


all evils warded off 
God’s prayer



Law

lawyers shout
squabbles in court
law is blind and deaf

lawyer makes law go
money makes the lawyer go
justice - ‘not for sale’

justice seeker waits
law process takes own course
dead delivery

good lawyers needed
for the superior verdict
goodness of justice 

for legal system
the person of repute


bad conductor

assembled parties
argue in the courtroom
fight for fairness

of legal system
power and money coating
fades the color 

democracy paws
have too many laws 
works for poor class

justice seeker pays 
many earn for their fun
in legal system

dare to file suit
if patient to wait decades


third world

managed is cost
unmanaged punishment
third world's justice

poor innocent
gets acquitted with honor 
grilled for ten years


Food

oscillates on 
nipple capped bottle of milk 
baby’s tongue

tiny tummy filled -
fruits vegetables purees
solid baby thrills

bun filled 
with fillers
hot dog grilled

vanilla and cream
whisked in sugar 
cool to lick

blend boiled tomato
with salt pepper and butter
stir your tongue in soup



pain of stirring joy 
scream is taken over by 
new little angel

delivery room
she is looking own face
in her new baby

loads of joy
comes to family
new baby 

heart falls 
to capture cuteness  
love arise


Media

reporter sets on
focus of own camera
people eyes opened

committed to show   
the image of society
media a mirror

man caught in blaze
the media person present 
setting on his flash

door is closed
what is cooking in
media smells

tea plant
shown as banyan tree
media hype


engaged in
removing stuck cake of jaws
tongue forgets taste

the lover
takes skin off
of onion 

makes 
the murderer weep
the onion



lips sip tea
in cold winter morning


I get warmed 

longing fruits
and dyeing gives timber
donor trees

smile of child
simile in poetry
stop there

American’s choice
alcohol bottled in France
glass ‘made in china’

curtain removed


jumped away
the lizard

pressed in door

leaves her tail behind
the lizard

swaying fish
on the waves
eagle’s telescopic view

eagle's paws down
partial closed wings
glides for prey

eagle’s paws touch
the water surface
fish in clutch

ponds dry
cracks at bottom
Indian summer

desert plants
reduce masses
water concern

wait eagerly
farmer frog fish
first rain drops

a feather
flies in wind
bird-less

eyeing toffee
child learns
his lesson

house fly
only eye witness
of the crime

I like to win
hearts and lotteries
no fight there

he says him 
people’s representative
craves kingdom

politicians 
cloud over the populace
suck instead rain

picture heroic
but lively villain 
politician

sands shy
looking exquisiteness 
of oasis

wait to be carved 
pumpkin of Halloween 
jack o’ lantern

costly car
expensive cloths
absent his man

villager cuts 
logs of tree for his hut


uprooted in storm

get into a ring
to exchange wedding rings


two lovers

ready to go to 
the plucked flowers
valentine's hands

the child
victim of stumble stone
wept for

blanketed with
the shivering puppy


heap of straw

this evening
beer bar crowded
pay out day

alas! streams of milk
fall from mountains
no child starves

creativity blends
of nature and human
bonsai aroma

midget trees
entertaining mankind
bonsai pot

butterflies fly far
and colors on their wings
flowers stay with me

when couples meet
ladies watch other’s make-up
gents stare them

bit her own finger
between the teeth


dining accident

football
rolls by kicks and heads


goal to goal

treated patients 
many years for loss of hair


doctor goes bald

a love stage
witness of thousands lovers


couch in park

creeping insect
lizard waits for
to come closer

farmer’s ready
to take wheat crops to home
mice fill own

curtain unwraps
escaping lizard
plummets down

sinking boat
bottom the sea 
looks shore

be made graceful
God! if sure to be given
death to anyone

I could not
touched her lips
my poetry

God is good artist
can’t make two things alike
a bad engineer


Jasmine

moon reflects sun
jasmine reflects the moon
moonlit night

moon shines in sky
but the stars in my garden
jasmine blossoms

wonderful fragrance
and white flowers on green vine
jasmine mania

even in darkness
my nose sees jasmine garden
bloomed on my wife’s hair

two sturdy sticks
dance on membrane floor
drum resonates

moving left and right
endows me the direction
vehicle steering

she has to pass 
her evenings lonely


husband’s second shift

first drop in mouth
from the mother’s breast
nectar of life

sniffer
its perfect sniff makes
owner’s nose up

in heavy snow fall
exit of house I lost
thanks got my car

puppets are dancing
tied to string twisted by them
let Senators sleep

intense desire leads
poor to rob son’s piggy bank
addiction of drug

woman is a child
at every stage of life
sweetness of  her voice

heart attack
love can put
on the track

sky extinguishes
its brightest halogen bulb
we ignite our lamps

white tree leaves
hockey on lake water
winter Canada

puts in
general anaesthesia
your hug

 lays down
America in coma
minus attack

since my birth
I struggle to find 
who died for me

God! open the door
completed the assigned job
I have come back 

the winter-
downs fahrenheit
appetite ups

tears are
most valued things
eye-drops drain out

they stand for heavens
and fall for your havens
grow trees

aliens from earth
have fallen on our planet
roar on the Mars

cold breeze proceeds
to clear traffic for their boss
winter follows

for own baby 
one feels pain in heart
headache if else cries

even out of pool
undergarments remain wet
summer in India

African summer
ponds and pools are dried
fishes fried in mud

sentiments potted
in the bunch of flowers 
the bouquet

waves

waves get diminished
but their fun boom
closer to shores

heart craves
to sit at the beach
grace of waves

calm and cool
my eyes
waves those rises

coming wave
when wets the feet
heart chills

calls me there
time and again
intense love to waves

holding hands of wind


waves rise to go with
sea pulls back

sunset and sunrise
change colors of sea surface
I don’t tire watching

the blue sea melts
into the distant horizon
painted in all shades

beaten constantly
though stare waves unabashed
stubborn rocks

able to cover


clouds are only spread sheet
the entire globe

when you point
your one finger to else 


you face three

he too has a tail
the appropriate use of it
dog is ignorant

other animals
wag their tails to fly flies
dog shows love

we are born solo
cologne of love we exchange
makes relations

I sigh for your ache
and endure your given pain
made for each other

in the dark nights
when moon goes away
stars keep on waiting

no bath tub for souls
at the toiletry shops
pilgrimage is place



saint like juicer
takes out the essence


leaves the remains

choose
soft swallowable food
toothless

sea food
soaked in salty water
yet need salt 

cats have
territorial conflicts
no weapon 

to reap fruits
nurture the orchard years
farmer's love 

Sun throws light
each and every moment
it is moon who hides

trees do not steal
even a single for them
bequeath all fruits

even in dark clouds
sincere efforts can find
traces of the moon.

past is lost by now
future is in home of God
present is with me

the next day 
of thirty first December
‘a happy new year’.

until in glass
alcohol means cheers
in veins you're out

rich pays most,
even emperor’s head bow
for the beauty

rich can pay
heavy cost for the love
poor gets love for love

buffalo spends 
hours in the water


hot days

makes space in hay 
to protect from cold
puppy's quilt

frogs sing
for the dance of
rains drops 

veiled in fog
earth adorns herself  
the spring show

hot air engaged
in carrying back to clouds
past rain drops

winter’s knocks
migration plan chalked out
bird flocks in sky

land and sky 
everything is dry
tongue says - more!

study tour to Mars -
Maven ready to take off
visa on arrival

weigh the words
before spoken out
the shaped gem   

you purify 
to drink safe water
filter words to speak

mother elephant
waits to see her new born
the longest period

oviparous
not undergone pregnancy
the proud mother

I fully believe
you love me greatly 
we hold each other

you are in my heart
and I am in yours, how?
unless we are one

size of her heart
I have already measured
equals to mine

dangling on her chest
diamond pendent sparkles
the necklace bears star

love to cuddle
tough tall mountains


hovering clouds

holding many herbs
mountains are greatest treasure
blessed mankind 

swiftly and softly
bow dances on its bosom
violin sings for it

son hurts
pain occurs 
in mother’s heart

sixteen to sixty
believed lived
and relieved

wheel
moves round
goes long

better sleep
than own bed gives
no where

winter
heart craves
sun bath

democracy
elections are war
to grab privilege

calf swims out
from the flooded pool
God has taught

warding evils
the old retired
horse shoe

roof of old barn
a nice dwell
for insects

drug
once is in
you're out

words said to Arjun
by Lord Krishna
mystic knowledge   

son whispers
asking something
mother applauds


broken cover
of the sewer 
waiting accident

son hurts :: mother’s heart pain 

winter morning
a cup of tea
nothing else

master dines
for his turn
dog looks

legal process
few earn of it
few pay

trees
covered in white sheet
snowfall

name is enough
to vanish the woe
the Lord's 

reveals
pain of one
the kindness

pain of man
inspires to search
medicines

to quench thirst
even river looks
face of clouds

if crave God
all other desires
will vanished

beauty lies in heart
we look in
the mirror

heart has no tongue
but I have listened
talking it 

why're you happy
sitting in vehicle, goat?
going to city!

whither hibiscus
blooms after bath
in sun rays

farmer looks
burning his crops
drought disaster 

moving car
rest of world
going back

under tree
drop on the head
crow on branch

rain
plants are fed
after bath

animals
don’t know cultivation
have grass to eat

bees
bear both
honey and sting

multiple
way of worship
God one

swaying branch
indicates
speed of wind


boat to sail on
prickly things

my boot
