I am a captive
   and a prisoner of your affections

I see on the news that some wish
not to teach their children English,
and this, to me, makes little sense,
makes me wonder about the parents.
Why, if you came here to live life,
would you not speak like...

To 32
What a way to appear on screen
With cascadic hair open umpteen
Wishing me on the festival of lights
Giving me extreme delights
Oozing with passion from looks I say
Glittering with fervour come what may
As name means the...

To vt
How sweet is this divine duo..!
Let me complete the verse due
Ethnicity emitted elegantly
As they pose magnificently
Majestic bevy with hair cascadic
To extoll I find words sporadic
A light flashing adds grace
They resemble Goddesses
Royal and regal aura
My...

 Worrisome ways is hunger’s wile,
 the body swoons as in the pot water boils;
 the idea stirs, steam fills the air,
 alas alone, in the water’s rip hunger rides;
 a pinch of salt,...

Belle in Blue and Pink

Blue and pink a combo cool
On this girl simply graceful
Looks like an angel from heaven
Beside her brother A1
Intensely lucky is this Sun-deep
Blessed with lady-luck in heap
Prosperity is his origin I guess
Brevity...

Long time no see
Possibly display pic thee
How are you with chores aplenty
Along with thy sweet son dainty 
Suddenly we stopped communication
Due to heavy schedules and perspiration
Worried a little about you
And thy working hard true
You can...

I want to be your home
to welcome you in, just so you know
you will never again be so alone

For though we are temporarily apart
and for this time we work on righting our apple carts

You might say that I'm just an atom,
But the universe, I extoll.
I view everything in creation
As one big shape shifting soul.

Even individual beings' bodies
Are really something more.
Microbial cells in flesh and bones
Outnumber human cells galore.
 
A body's...

Creator of Life, you are,

We extoll your creative wonders.
We stand in awe at your wisdom,
We're compelled to pause and ponder.

Astonishing displays of your great power.
Your name for us is our shelter,
Our stronghold...

Born here girl, I swear I’m never coming back,
Too light town got lost beside a railroad track,
Rhythm of the rails inside my gunny sack,
There may be no cure for what it is I lack,
Promises to...

I take an unhurriedly walk
through the virgin forest
with paths fully covered with brittle leaves,
its trees emit mournful laments
to protest its anguishing fate until spring arrives
and transforms their dullness
into a liveliness loved by a novelist;
and walking...

Since you are my ultimate passion
I advance with aggression

My joy knows no bounds
When you make rounds

Want to explore thy beauty spots
Again and again on many cots

Research I am doing on thee
So every time I'm love...

atop another world
another …
promethean creation
ineffable beauty and innovation spread at his
feet like a glorious carpet of progress
a macrocosm of concept and imagination
that surprised even HIM
he had, again, exceeded his own
undefinable ingenuity and prospect
and...

Who was only one inch tall,
raised in a lab since he was, well...small, 
doped on phenobarbital,
escaping o'er his prison wall.
Tell me friend, can you recall
King Mouse?

Who lived in a tidy little hole,
knew when the cat...

Purely perfect Priya sister
Shining like a star aster
Being her birthday today
I wish come what may
Dainty delightful dashing doll
Divine debonair damsel small
Stars extoll her mien
How sweet it’s they mean..!
Soon she scales progress new
Taking from my verse...

Subconcious streams flitter through my silty porthole
Ebb and flow through my consciences' filtering scroll
Clogging the interstices and my formative, fragile mind doth control
Perceptions of self flood my sensory console 
Pent-up desires breach mind's, shallow levee and...

How unlucky can a man get?

 There was a man, an ocean sailor,
in Argentina, he met a woman who he married.
During a storm, she was washed overboard, and
he couldn’t find her. Undaunted he continued
sailing around...

Is God the master of my fate, where victory's to serve?
Is 'Truth' that no act of 'my will,' my 'best' does not deserve
His Grace, what Christ died for, His Gift? Then may His Spirit lift

In the corporate garden
you are always given choices.
In fact, the denizens of the garden
extoll their life of choices.

The choices are of products
and the means by which you buy them.
Shiny lifestyle choice is fixed in aspect,...

CHICKEN GULLET DESTINY

The memory of things that will be
usually fades into the haunting melody
of a life reduced to picking the easy fruit
of future history.

Never more the blue-sky dreams,
Living low, deep...

Stunned to look at her charm shower
Evergreen pose has stories plentiful
Of kid, war and life blissful

Rosy lips prove their essence
Eyes speak volumes of emotion

This morning 25/12

We got up late, the night had been mild
No, wind is making a noise attacking the building
I have to go out to buy petrol and to find 
An Indian grocer which is open

You may withdraw yourself from others
Become quiescent or lackadaisical
Disrupt sleep or appetite alter
Feel sluggish or delirious

When the echoes of your parents'altercations
Rack up your eggshell mind
When you avoid people whose company 
You've typically rejoiced relishing

Yet you...
