Never-Ending Perplexity

 

When a morning dawns on her face

The day shines in it's myriad shade

Love is played, wind gives it a rhythm

And the eyebrows are left raised

 

A ladybug unfolds it's wings

Listening to the sound of heartbeats

Her desires turn into butterflies

Wearing the colours of the sky

 

A whisper starts radiating in the air

Dear, please do remember

Colours of love in the master painter's brush

Never fade yet perplex much.

 

This is all about poetry

Where love is deeply engraved

It may rise and fall like tidal waves

But will never come to an end

 

In Your Silence

 

In your silence

I get in tuned with the music of life

Fragrance of love spread around me

I feel like the season changing

When I see myself in your eyes

 

Once in a while a bird starts singing

Whenever your eyes meet mine

New tunes are composed in my mind

Like the sky you encompass me

 

Something is there in you

That makes me feel high

You weave a love web in my heart

At the tiniest of your smile!

 

I have no other choice

Than to look at you with wonder

I am the receptive

Your vibes touch my heart

 

Oh lovable eyes!

You are my life

My heart is pinned to the blue sky

That appears in your silent eyes...

 

The Daydreams

 

The Daydreams

Ungrudgingly shroud me with ebullience

When revealed in the tunes of

The bright sun in a raging environment

The violent upsurged waves of a turbulent sea

The gentle breeze around

Duely bleached with the

Chills of a murmuring stream

A veiled moon in a melancholic sky

Add the innocent smiles in the ravaged lips

With their embedded sacred beauty.

 

At times these thrills and exhilarates

Unlike piled up emotions

That unravels 

The colours and vibrations of love

In coherence with heart beats

No matter if imaginary or real.

 

No one ever explained them

As deep and fragile,

And engrafted on to declarative human memory

Yet there exists someone omnipotent and omniscient

Who adjudicates with practical’s

The essence of

Divinity of life is imprinted their in...

 

They move in a circular path,

Endless in the core of life

When one moves to the darkest

And deepest part of life

And touches the pits of emotions

Helps evolving pure and innocent love

That sparks smile on the trampled lips

 

Challenged Dictum

 

Autumn's rain

Sings with rhythms of grace

While a deep silence reign

In the temple steps

And a Maple tree stands

Undraped amidst all madness

Yet fading memories of youth

I refuse to forget

 

Autumn fails to appreciate me

Allows the dry leaves to

Sweep in the wild winds

And fall on the whitish snow bed

With book marks

Where shadows whisper your name

Announcing love not to be 

Like a migratory crane

 

You prefer to preserve love

Out of sight in a sacred touch

That sings the pious verses

Of the divine soul.

Myths teach

Fate governs when the deeds wilt

Yet instead

Love, anger, hope and fear

Fade to glow

 

Is it then to contradict

The universal dictum?

Yet in a state of confusion

I am still trying,

But it's really hard to forget

The adoring youth

Even though I see

The lonely moon sinks down

The tangled mountains...
