Green and Yellow

I don't like sunshine 
at a stretch 
Still, if it is staying away 
for long
I am robbed of my roses 

A continuous rain
a non-stop super express train 
I do criticize 
but then a few raindrops 
on tender leaves 
your cheeks
I always smile at
A lot of harboured images 
many a wavelengths 
behind the hedges 

Your too frequent footsteps 
renders me monotonous 
the thorns and thistles 
I miss

Then again 
if no sounds 
at the door every day 
the plant pots look hollow 

As a matter of fact 
the soil has a thirst for
new plants and creepers 
both native and alien
folding the neck

there the cotton clouds 
are descending
from her hands 
I need a paper boat
