If I 'm Not Heard

If I'm not heard,
How long I'll speak?
If I can't be seen,
How long I'll see?
O my whisper,
Be my wing and go
Uplifting vision,
upto the unending end...

Mr.Gaddafi

Why can't you Gaddafi step down?
Let them taste their taste.. the choice.
Your voice is no more a voice,
Life is a chess-game
King also killed by the pawn.....

My Childhood

I lost my youth in search of my childhood
Nomad, I became, walking under the wood,
Now preparing to mingle into the mud
I cry 'O' Heaven, Don't stop, my ugly mood/

Be

Be,
The word of emptiness
That fills void
Be
The beginning
Be the end
Nothingness to nothingness
Wrapped the sound be

You will be...
Only to feel
Feel to be
You will be//

Banyan Tree

Earth needs seed,
Seeds need mud
Thought needs eyes to behold
Out of conceived thoughts
An artist sprouts
A plant grows and grows
Becomes the Banyan Tree
No care is needed than//

Undefined

When I borne,
I was the symbol of truth
As i grew, Evil I gathred
Knew not! ......
When I transformed
From Gangotri to Salty sea
From Gangotri to Salty sea........

(Gangotri= Origin of River Ganga)

O Life O Death

At night,
in the mind
into the dark
Something is moving..
Incessantly...

In the heart
horrifying bark
searching matchstick
with palsied hand
frequently

O life O death
Why do you hunt?
Constantly...

Puzzle

I always stood in a situation
Felt better to close the eyes
and took a decision that puzzled
Am I satisfied or not it riddled

I always haunted..with the dew

tears of the night or pearls of the day
woos of the stars or dancing feathers gay

Motley of love

Love has many eyes
How one behold, relies
Basically on him,
A cradle like a lap,
A hug like a dream,
Whisper like supplication,
A tender touch like an angel,
Dew like tears,
The desire that smears,
O! Love! Colours of multitude,
Unknowingly, we are playing with

Jasmine

Jasmine toxicated and narrated
Requirement of democracy
Just wait and see......

Gentle breeze slowly touching
The heart and mind of lethion,
Now life is sprouting........

Before the dawn; into the dusky world
Pray and hope for the bright sun
Without the USA's bun.....
