Shunyata- Nothingness
#atensyllabledDecima #ArtoonsInnPoetryParlour Shunyata/Nothingness Nothing was there, to nothing we return. Seek the ever unfolding horizon; All’s a mirage, life’s naught but illusion. Each being walks the forking path to turn, Moulting skin, physical debris- to learn What has been unlearnt! minds often play truants, Succumbing to daemons of flesh- the wants. Souls wither, they wilt,…

My Heart's Call
#NaPoWriMo2021 #day3 . My hands shiver and quiver It is failure, and ridicule I fear And yet my thoughts gush out The paper absorbs them all throughout The unsaid feelings, the unspoken words, Alone, I venture on dreamy roads Taking baby steps, one at a time, So, what if I’m past my prime? Lived my…

Thank you, my dear senses, for, Showing me, what life is, Making me hear the unheard, Tuning my olfactory system, Training my taste buds, and Polishing my whole self. . Thank you, my dear white friends, for, Giving me a shape, and Teaching me to walk and run. . Thank you, my dear spirited soul,…

With Love
He was smart, intelligent And filled with charm. He had an aura That could make one feel warm. . He spoke sense And made one feel at ease. Seldom, did he know, That, he ushered in peace. . He made us think and read And taught us to write. To make us shine, Like the…

Roads
#AZatPP #R Many grey roads have I crossed, Some in time’ve fall’n out of use, and were lost. Some led to cities of yore, Others, watery paths, anchor’d ships at shores. Dirty brown straggling paths Dared venture into the wildnesses’ heart. Pine laden, steep were some, Where silence mingled with the bee’s hum. Mountains…

Zygote
Life starts with a tiny dot, The dot has a name, That starts with Z, The last alphabet. . Isn’t it amazing to see, The God’s creation of The last letter being The first step to life? . A small dot it is, That teaches us the Life’s most valuable lesson Of share, divide and…

Venetian Blinds
We are oft blindedBy our faiths and beliefs,Power and money,Arrogance and vices,And the unwanted egos..Let’s open these blinds slowly,To let the beautiful raysOf life penetrate into us,And enjoy life to the fullest.Just like the Venetian Blinds..Pic courtesy : Schuyler Dugle on Unsplash Kirti V

Jailed Within
Let us out! Let us free! I looked around, To hunt down the cries. . The cries grew louder, And it came from within us. Oh! I realized that, They were our silly minds. . We are trapped, cried they, Within you great mortals. Suffocated are we, With your thoughts and deeds. . Forced are…

Intricacies of Life
The pristine, white monument, Stood tall and graceful. I looked up at it in awe, And was amazed with every step. . As I went closer, The intricate carvings, On the mighty walls Stole my sight and thoughts. . The intricacies did, indeed, Enhance the beauty, Of otherwise just a piece of stone, To a…

Remembering 26/11
A dozen years have passed since the deadly terror attack How far have we come? How far have we mended? Etched as a nightmare in many hearts and minds While the majority have forgotten, commemorating just like that! Sadly to say, we’re still unprepared for another one ‘Cause we don’t choose leaders, we choose to…

Come lets see it again….
Often times promises Don’t materialize Seems to be the lies Often stuck in fear of being prosaic. ***** The azure sky is wailing aloud The crimson sun on its way to ground The stillness of breeze over river water sound It’s time to move on, time to dust off the old wound. **** Just living…

The Book of My Life
I once opened the book of my life, The pages popped and loomed up high. I flipped through the pages one by one, They were filled with memories in thousands. The sweetest ones seemed to glow, Memories that smiled with a rainbow. The funny ones made me laugh out loud, Memories with friends who made…

If Meetings Are Truth
#Poattic-4 #Poetryparlour #Lies If meetings are truth, Then partings are lies. In this cyclic world Rushing hither thither All screaming silences die. And circular points disappear. One hastens through a motley crowd Into the comfort Of a tenuous heart’s tie. *** ‘Tis this silken strand That anchors A time-worn traveler’s Blighted heart, affixing It into…
