Precocious one

If it were the sun, it could be bright, warm, or shiny. 
If it were the moon, it could be chilled, peaceful, 
and beautiful. If it could not be understood, 
it could not be love. If it was not, then 
it could be more than it.

Though it may mitigate the pain, it is love.What if? 
The purplish brinjal shed its purpleness, just as the 
love shed interest. 
The road somehow changes its direction toward the destination. But what if destiny has changed?

Although destiny is the same, only the way is 
changed. That is how it is working. 
Like the love scars as the lovely scars. 
The precocious but unconscious heart.

Bathing of Cattle

O Cowherd, my fellow cowherd
Let's quickly drag the river walk
Fun walk with the wash cattle
Take the bamboo tube, and charcoal.
Look quick the sun came out midday
Does buck tilak on forehead
Bring mustard oil, to nails.
Don't forget, the calabash of garland and brinjal.
O Cowherd, my fellow cowherd
The house to clean
And don't forget to take the new rope
Today is to reject the old rope.
Let's hurry and brinjal with calabash for dinner,
Let's go forward to cattle digilithi rod to beat.

Onion Union

once it so happened
potato was going to wed
with a lady's finger
invited band and singer

sweet potato came early
he was excited madly
then came the brinjal green
wrapped in the cloth with sheen

chief guests were cauliflowers
who came to blessed the lovers
party was orgainsed by ground
then came tomato red and round

everyone was enjoying tea
then their came a group of pea
they began playing all around
then came the ugly bitter 
ground

carrot and radish came late
as they had to wash the plate
music was high and kinky
shocking entered zuchini

then came their enemy
with a union
at last made the blast
the wily onion

                                      With happy Good Luck meal 				
                                      in the Happy 2012 New Year

Carried Off In a Flood

the open-hair magnolia remains standing
putting a hand on the window-bar 
of the camellia 

sometimes 
i think of knowing from her 
through sending a pink-letter 
who have gone in the fall of night 
crossing the border  
on foot 

and who have like to deposit
the spoilt water-chestnut 
on the obsolete narrow-gauge 

does the wild moon ever take hot water 
from the slow river-quay of this city 

following the rein-deer 
it seems
his t-shirt has also disappeared 

the pictorial cave-writings gradually 
putting their flag down 
on the cornice of clouds 
that return home in the evening 

even-then 
why the sinthi with it flows 
has smeared so much green 

even-then 
on this operation table 
which wind brings in 
so much lemon leaves 

and why 
so much light of carried off in a flood 
has overflowed the blossoms of the brinjal

Random Shades of Basic Colors

Silence is white
and ruing is black
then what is ruing silence......guess some shade of grey or slate
I was grey..ruing silence kind
in deep grief..which was blue
I had irritation and peeved full, which is red
peeved grief is ,then,I guess brinjal purple or some shade
grey and purple me was angry, moreover
as angry as white
I had stabbing instincts like a dark black villain
I was back to some shade of grey or slate
I was throbbing and blinking colors
the grey matter conjured all that up
guess it is a color that helps us prod on
from one state to another
life is a lie and life is a truth
all is relative and nothing absolute
it is all random
and on a number line
that runs both sides
so infinite
a random that is yet defined
for you can see the number line
but not come to its ends
our each mental state is a number on such line
unique and well defined
and nothing but
just a shade
of basic colors
that grey matter harbors.
