Best Urbanblue Poems


Welcome To Delhi

Revived to pop out as an empty nester 
To accompany a newfangled life
Maneuvered all the way for a change of state
I dropped my bags and willed at country’s metropolis. 

The heirloom edifices occupying moiety of acreage
Glossy crisscross roads and extended overpass
Spic-and-span subway and the rushy blue line coaches
Voguish three wheeled fares and snuggled DDA flats
Yet an open blue sky and extreme deuce climate.

The forenoon snarl – up and the crowded massed bus
The traffic and the driver’s clapper claw
The border red signal and the busy CP
College bunkers to gates of malls
Unitedly a fussy horologe. 

Where educatees hitting lectures and employes cogitating
Schemers contriving at the parliament
Few couples could be sighted antithetic though 
And rest chewing the fat.

Republic march at the red fort
And the day break Jama Masjid prayer,
Incised India Gate boswell and
The eventide light show at akshardham.
Elementses unidentified at Qutub Minar
And the muteness dwelled at the lotus temple,
Savaged kingdom at Tuglakabad
And exquisite ambiance of Humayun tomb,
Concisely a grand metropolis
Envied world-wide. 
  
Revived to pop out as an empty nester 
To accompany this newfangled life
Maneuvered all the way for a change of state
I dropped my bags and willed at country’s metropolis.

Late Autumn In the City

Cold wind in the    
morning
           frees the mind
as 
light 
pours 
down 
      from the heavens
Here on this blue planet
     we wait patiently 
         for the crystalline white
of winter 
      Leaves dance on the
ground
        In the distance - laughter
        streets are packed
        with thousands 
        of individual souls 
Rushing, rushing 
         Cars inch forward 
 Coffee carts
                  serve how liquid 
to workers - blue and white collar 
        Sparkling eyes in the city 
              Doors open
     the masses enter
