MADHUMATHI H
Between
Violets, And Lavender, Meanders Love...
What whisperings
between the violet blooms
And, the breeze
that just hugged the lris garden
Scents of love,
and opaque lust
Exuded in mauve,
from the unheard humming of her heart
As she walked
nonchalantly under the Jacaranda canopy...
Following the
trail, she stumbled upon Periwinkles
Each blushed on
her behalf, and her cheeks turned Mulberry
Amethyst feathers
drifted in the wind
Gently brushing
her dreamy eyes...
Pigments of love
glowed in wine hues
Flowing as music
notes from cupid-smitten hearts
A bite into the
Plum-sweet memories
Wrapped her soul
in Orchid garlands...
Soul-perfuming
Lavender, wafted through the air
As she reached
the intoxicating part of the Earth
There He was, with
a disarming smile
Waiting to
welcome His forest flower...
As she held her
arms, with joyfully welled up eyes
The clouds grew
darker
Silvery rain,
showered upon her soul
That could not
wash away the color
As her heart
blushed...
Not Gently, Not
Merrily...
(Heart of a
boat...)
Drunk on the
golden light
The water
lilting, and still, alternatively
Gently rocks the
drowsy boat
That weighs with
memories of old driftings, and sailings
Is it waiting,
for the oars to quill the waters
Or chose to rest,
unburden its heart
Before the next
shore intimidates...
Mysterious blue,
oozes from the Sky
Blanketing the
soliloquy of the dreamy wooden curve...
Is there someone
to pause, and listen
Hear the whispers
and hushed sighs?!
Does a boat, not
have a heart?
Were all the
rivers of yesterday, crossed without aches?
Are all the
boats, made to sail?
Aren't some
wishing to dream, drift and rest near a placid lake
Looking at the
starlit skies, or the lighthouse
That speak to the
waves, and faraway ships
Allow the boatman
to lean upon its shoulder
As he tells
stories of his voyages
Not complaining -
the boat is reluctant towards the water...
Just because it
is made as a boat
It sails, as
destiny rows - not gently or merrily
wounds are hidden
in the water's depth
Floods and
drought are the same
To an unhealed
boat...
Will You?!...
Walk with me,
will you
Holding hands, we
shall
Make some
nectarous memories
Through honeyed
conversations
Under the
luminous canopy of dreams
Our eyes would
glow in joy
Stopping at every
blade of grass, and
Rain-clothed
petals, smelling of Petrichor
While the
raindrops carry the scents of gardens
As we kiss the
butterfly, we feel the breeze
On its
orange-wafer wings
Our souls absorb
the Sun, the sea
The Moon and the
mountains
Together
We shall walk
into eternity...
Carrying all the
moments in our hearts
Whispering love
for each other
My dear darling
Camera!
Bonfire...
Evening melts
into the night’s arms
Rain dripping
from the fading shades of crimson and orange Sky
She nonchalantly walks
under the silver verse
Drenched skin,
yet soul aflame…
If eyes could be
the matchstick
For the bonfire
in the hearts
His soft kisses
planted
On her
dream-laden eyes
Are the firewood!
Rhythm of the
unspoken words
Heard in a
wordless gentle hug
That feels like a
promise of love…
The more their
eyes converse
The higher the
bonfire grows
They sculpt love
in silence...
Perfumed
raindrops
Of musk sandal
lavender
Shower upon their
smiles, washing away the tears…
As the golden
dawn crackles
From the Kohl’s
womb
Their sozzled
souls sail
Like paper boats
On a stream of
honey…
