Lighthouse KeeperLighthouse keeper vacancy announced
Envelope delivered; contents read aloud
A smile turned into laughter, then into a shout
Parents and Son hugged before he set off.
Applicants sitting quietly, Into the room strides a man
Age etched on his face, a cheery smile, sparkle in his eyes
Sat himself down...

Before YouI never noticed diamonds in the sky before;
so mindless, let such moments pass me by before.
I never glanced a passing smile upon a face
of utter loveliness; it made me cry before.
I never hearkened such sweet, honeyed voice, so fell
upon the siren spell of Lorelei before
I...

Ghazal
Mother of the EarthI’m the mother of the sprawling expansive earth,
From the greenest eastern hills to the western shores.
I own all those verdant plantations and their owners;
All the high quarters and the glittering executive doors.
Before the eyes of bubbling presidents opened
I was, and their virgin earthly cries...

Mental Pictures
As the sun, came glinting through the pines,
I hearkened, to euphonies, the wind was playing.
While eavesdropping, from within my confines,
I pondered what message it might be conveying.
As I yawned, stretched and opened the blinds,
I returned to the thoughts previously weighing.
Now, my wall exhibited, Levolor...

AmmanRays of sugarplums dance in the sun.
Children’s laughter was heard and enjoyed.
We should teach them to relish life while they are young.
Lights are dancing in the twilight.
A bright smile beams from across the room.
Teenagers’ embraced as they cabaret the dance floor.
Scurry a cat under the...

The Birth of DeathLet me narrate how Death came ‘pon this Earth,
Said sage Vyasa to Yudhishthir, shattered
By Abhimanyu’s death, ‘Oh vain my birth
Should a young dream die and lie scattered’.

And his...

a battle declared, as the

This day of celebration,

The Morning Star of LoveMy eyes glittered into the eyes
Of thee who cast a spell on my heart
They glanced each other with pleasure
Upon hearing thy contralto voice,
Or seeing thy sight;
Thy presence in all:
I smiled with passion.
Under the proximity of the roof we communicated.
At last, we settled our...

Jonah's CallingJonah's Calling
A vision of Jonah I did not see,
Nor did I hear the Lord speak

When He said to His servant, Jonah,
“Arise and go to Nineveh for me.”
“Set me free!” Jonah cried,
And said to himself,
“They are but strangers to me.”
And...
