Never say, Never again
Never
Say never again
If you ever say, never again
You shall never be able to
Say never again
Even when you want to
Say never again
So say if not now
Than may be
Sometime later
But never say, never again
If you can’t understand
What I have written
Then read again
But for god sake
Do not say
Never again
You shall read anything
On never again
And please do not ask

Waiting For Him
With a look of hope
On the face
Eyes gleaming
Longing to see her desire
Fulfilled
She sat in the window
Looking at the street
Waiting for him to arrive
Arms of the clock
Kept moving
Her desire
Remained starving
Color of the face
Kept changing
Pink became yellow
In no time
Eyes moved
From street to the clock
Now and then
Afternoon went

At times you need some space for yourself
At times you
Need some space for
Yourself
May be your spouse
May be the person
You love most
No matter
How close you are to
Somebody
You need some privacy
For your self
Want to be on your own
Complete isolation
No intruders
You want
To do and think
As you feel
Many may not
Understand
The importance of

Light of love burns deep inside me
Light of love burns
deep inside me
Neither seen or felt by
any one besides me
Fire never dies
Rapidly increases as day passes
Loneliness makes me shiver
Night haunts me
Darkness ignites the desire in me
Her memories fuels the light in me
I remember her smile
Eyes explore her in the darkness
through out the night
She does not arrive
the morning sun rises
devoid of any light for me
I am still groping in the darkness
around me
Light deep inside increases
with passing of time

The Beautiful Flower
A tiny bud
Took birth in a garden
Matured into a beautiful flower
It’s Eye catching colors
Maddening aroma
Became center of attraction
For one and many
All coming to the garden
Adored it
Fellow flowers
Became envious
The beautiful flower saw all this
But kept on blooming
Didn’t bother
Who is envious or attracted?
Continued
Spreading fragrance
Without getting distracted
Kept on doing
What he had to do

Love can be pure
I really liked her
Her grace and elegance
Enamored me
Her beauty attracted me
Her dressing floored me
She had something
More than any body
I admired her as a personality
Somebody whom
One would like to talk to
Whenever I saw her,
I smiled at her
I tried to talk to her
She ignored me
Thinking
I am making passes at her
She never realized
Anybody can like anybody
Love can be pure,
Full of humanity

My mother’s lap
I opened my eyes
I found myself
In my mother’s lap
I cried, I played,
Laughed and smiled
In my mother’s lap
I grew older
But it was still mine
When tired, to rest
I climbed in the lap
When shy,
I hid my face
When hungry
She fed me in her lap
When sleepy
I used it as a bed
Warm and secure
Full of love
It was the coziest place
I could have

Till he keeps fulfilling her desire
She came running
Sweating badly
Breathing heavily
She was tired
Stopped at the tree
Where he was standing
Seeing him
Her tiredness gone
Face looked refreshed
Like the leaves on the tree
After the rain
In the bright sun
Droplets of perspiration
Shone like pearls
Her beauty increased
As her eyes met
The waiting lover
Who asked her?
If she was tired?
She swore to him

The Advent of Humans Shall Turn This Heaven into Hell
Queer fate
And a big wave
Stranded me on an
Isolated island
I opened my eyes
Found myself amidst
Beautiful trees
Blue skies
Colorful birds
Eye catching flowers
And sparkling waterfalls
I was the lone human
On this heaven on earth
I ate fruits
Played with the animals
Sang with the birds
Danced with the winds
One day I remembered
My family and friends
I prayed to god

They’re Digging Their Own Graves
Flowers stopped blooming
Birds stopped nesting
Few leaves left
The tree was shocked
Failed to understand
The reason behind
Wore a dejected look
On the face
Prayed to god
Give me back
My flowers and birds
God replied
The human greed
Does not end
They leave no means
To achieve their ends
Take lives, cut trees
Do not realize
They are digging
Their own graves
