Premium Member Enjoy The Rain
The sky, colored all shades of grey, blocks out searing rays of sunlight. And as clouds start cooling the day, sprinkles bring a welcome delight. A splashing sound quenches the ground. Droplets freckle the dirt with spots, where the thirsty soil absorbs them. And drops, drumming on roofs and pots, frighten the dogs, causing mayhem. A little rain can entertain. Nature loves taking a shower; for it makes...

Premium Member Say Goodnight
Don't forget to say goodnight 'Cause when you do my world seems right For though the bed bugs may not bite Without it I just won't sleep tight A nice long trip to dreamland waits And your goodnight unlocks the gates Of all the dreams it generates Big snowstorms are my favorites...

When Time Slips Away
So little time— Yet so much left undone! On the pages of life still remain Sketches of dreams left to run. So many promises lost in the mist, So many hopes quietly withdrew— Countless paths remain untraveled, So many sights left out of view. What still remains— To behold the world with wide-open eyes, To truly live...

And then?
Then? What then? What about the Bare legs Seeking address Wait. Be a snail. Then the hours Began undressing And then? Wait. No unleashed Impulses. The earth tilts Towards the sun Here in India Dusk thickens In California Legs in line Mostly bare For the dancing hall Sea and seagulls Some vultures too Mingled with the Moneylenders Waves and wavelets Tipsy and tottering Hard...

Premium Member Lost
In sky called life beauty shined bright, where butterfly flew free, weaving the lattice of delight, flowers bloomed charm for me. My volatile mind wandered in a trance, drifted in the draft of its dreaming wings, floated toward the sunburst horizon, made a fresco of formless fantasy. The dawn splashed the spectrum of bliss. As I was...

Premium Member SUMMER RAIN
SUMMER RAIN God cried today His tears fertilizing The womb of Mother Earth: The wet smell Of nature’s essence Saturated the air As moist breeze blew Breath of new life Into dried hopes Wilted in despair:- The rainy season Of life has begun: Maybe love’s peace Will hollow her footprints In the canvassing mud:- ...

Chickadee
Coming back home, after a long stint south, I passed the blue sign on the turnpike that reads “Massachusetts Welcomes You.” Under the “Welcomes,” some Mayflower blooms, And a chickadee perches there, under the ‘You.” I’d seen this bird busying our woods as a boy, Seen its black helmet with small streaks of white, Flitting from thickets to rest on a branch, Or...

Premium Member Smiles Throughout the Weeks
Ben and Cora Green had seven children, like calendar pages turning; Each one born on a different weekday, like mango sun, forever burning. Zoe was pretty, with big eyes and dimples, while Leah loved dancing, Yet, Bill was sort of a pessimist; like when mystic trouble is glancing. Edward had a zeal for jogging, while Ruth ran many errands...
