The Leaves
The leaves are completely still now They’re just breathing Looks like they’re tired after a gaily dance to the tune of air How they swayed moments before was a sight you missed Seeing them, only, I felt light and serene I wanted to be one of them So I could also sway to my own…

NYCTOPHILE
Slowly the jarring voices die down, Colours of the twilight fade away, There comes a soothing serene calm, Calming my senses, taking away pain. Music of nocturnal beings I hear, Chirping of crickets or owls hoot, Sometimes a group of foxes are heard, Complaining to lovely careless moon. When tiring hectic day is over, My…

Amore
A thundering heart and a calm countenance that hides, agony of parting . A dry mouth and wet eyes, dreams, that erode the lines of the existent and fairy-tale . The elusive looks, hinting of elysiums in his arms, among other places . What passes unsaid, But never unheard every sigh accounted for . The…

The Gap
I was drowning, almost sure to cross the gap between life and death, An angelic soul pulled me I screeched, “I want happiness, can you get it for me?” “I can get it from inside you”, the old voice still reverberates It had compelled me to pull myself out! . Image credit: Andrew Bui (Unsplash)

Please, Let Me Breathe!
Like the fiery Golden ball She glimmers in a red Banarasi her hazel coloured eyes twinkling, emanating a stream of hope, Her Auburn hair garlanded with jasmine buds, spreading an invigorating fragrance her milky-satin toes embellished in passionate red design symbolize deity resides in her, the melodious clinking of her gold bangles resonating the warm…

Happiness is within
In search of happiness, I booked a ticket to the other side of the universe, Armed with a backpack, stuffed with too many expectations, I embarked on a journey . In the earth beneath and above in the sky, Probed from each particle So, on the question of mine, The air was a long sweet…

Beauty in the crevice of Nature
A beautiful flower, Nested in the Castle rocks, Radiating the beauty around. I can’t think near-perfect delicacy. It looked like the belle of the ball. How dubious is the nature to install flower in the rocks? Is it the feed of love that made an alluring flower to bloom? I spurred into grudges, That my…
