Moments For Blooming 1 - 5

1	
the goose is putting signature
on the plume detaching from its tail

the queue is overflowed with crowd

groping in the memory of the gathering people 
so many safety pins and cello-tapes
are found  

on the shoulders of some wayfarers
there is the stammering cold

2.
the body-language of the moon
is being so changed 

the enthusiastic may test

blood came down 
when the tap is on

and sweat

now birds from siberia
are flowing in through the disc antenna 

the dravidian air is ever changing

now none can get ruined
following all the grammar 

3.	
the sole hunger of the winter 
is being noted down in the note book 
covered with human-skin 

the clouds of the summer and the rainy season 
are salivating 

the garrulous spiders are detaching the shells 
of the dead deer and putting the gardens in the iron-chest 

throwing dry leaves to shoo away the coke 
oh, the sleeveless palms 
are all the new girl-friends ok 

4.	
putting on the rain-coat to save the skin 
or it’s an armour
is your body safe 
fireworks are twinkling 
piercing 
the fire-brigade has gone to a joyful journey with the clouds 
admit the charisma of the bathroom 
you the adult buffalo 
don’t forget to tell
the experienced cormorants have  flown in from the marshland 

5.	
diving in search of kisses 
I saw all are stings 
even the wicker tray with the articles of ceremonial reception  
can’t escape bite 
would you be clean 
oh engrossed abir 
so many flakes of snow on the branches of the guava tree 
the festival is in your teeth  also
tame your blood 
don’t submerge the river into the waves
and there is the sky 
beg a rail


The Melting of Ice (Part 2)

I shoo away 
  all my twisted creations
 (I can’t let them taint this
      With the vileness
           I spawned them from)

She approaches
   I lower my head,
     eyes staring into hers,
opening myself,
      feeling her
intertwine her energy
      with mine,
closer she comes.

At this point 
  mist like trails of essence
spiral out of the corners of our mouths
   like smoke,
       hazing sight.
I can feel her heart leaping
   as I touch the right side of her neck,
      the throbbing
stirring my desires
and as our power 
  closes us off to the world,
    time freezes,
   ice crystals
forming on my fur,
       her feathers,
snapping off under their own weight
making chime like sounds 
   as they shatter 
beneath us,
my nerves alight
   as her fingertips
graze my cheek,
   and her claws sink into
the small of my back,
like a forest fire
running through the brush,
  melting away the obtrusive growth.

I feel her quiver
    as my nails run down
her ribs
   and her slim,
narrow waist,
our  lips touch
   and the clock starts again,
      (reality must exert itself)
 as the mist swirls in
    I know what to expect,
so it doesn’t burrow into my brain
when in the clarity
         she’s gone,
instead,
  my heart still pumps,
     and in the worst case
      this undead
has felt life again,
   maybe I’ll progress
instead of shriveling 
       and sealing my crypt once more.

The Life Of A Stained Glass Window

The life of a stained glass window,
Is a life boring and dull,
You take in rays of sunlight,
And breathe out the colours that swell.

The life of a stained glass window,
Oh so boring, oh so dull,
You give light to others,
And shoo away your own,
While they see the world in colours,
Your sight you loaned.

Colourblind by choice,
You live in a monochromatic world,
Your wants and needs,
Have all been sold.

Discount, free sale?
Anything for you!
For how a stained glass window feels,
Is anything but true.

I paint and handcraft rainbows,
To shine along churches and stores,
But if my hand grows tired?
Who cares if they're sore!

The life of a stained glass window,
Is a life boring and dull,
This stained glass window,
Hates to endow!

Curse the rainbows they'll miss so well,
Now that their world is dim and dull,
This stained glass window thinks they should go to hell!
The pretty colours adorning a pedestal,
The shards that make streets glow,
I should all let it go!

This stained glass window,
Paints the world in black and white,
And this stained glass window,
Is no longer right.

The life of a stained glass window,
Oh so boring, oh so dull,
Who wants a stained glass window,
With no pretty colours? Well...

No one.

Lately, as sure as the sun rises on the eastern horizon 
A certain cheery robin [the same one every day] sits 
On my porch railing and tells me Spring has arrived, 
When I have acknowledged her presence, she skitters 
Across the yard in search of juicy earthworms, and 
Suitable materials for nest-building beneath the soffits. 
 
I am having an affair with this insanely personable bird 
Who chatters at me like we are old remembered friends, 
Chirping her familiar tune to announce her presence, 
She flits back and forth from yard to the dogwood limbs 
Like she is searching for the perfect nesting spot, 
[She misdirects me, for she has already chosen the eave] 
Reminding me how, last year, I had protected her young 
From all the feral cats that staked out her location. 

So, I will do the same this year.  I will occasionally peek 
Into her nest to see how far everything has come along; 
She knows I am keeping watch, protecting her from harm, 
And when her fledglings teeter on the edge of their home 
I will sit on the porch and shoo away unwanted intruders; 
Making sure her babies have their wings before I retreat.

Premium Member A Sudden Downpour

Rain beats down on the window pane
As the flood gates of Heaven suddenly open
It is pouring out in torrential flow
Like a Reservoir, all at once broken

It has come down as a welcome respite
To fan away the humid sweltering heat
It falls in drops and flows in rivulets
Washing the dust of summer drought

With a sudden burst from the weight laden clouds
It lashes down in steam and fury
Plummeting to form ripples in puddles
And filling pools and ponds in hurry

In slanting sheets, it almost pounds
Flooding roads and making puddle
Gushing through pipes and rushing down drains
Water floods, causing men to waddle

Rain has its abode in heavens so high
And hides behind clouds of mournful gloom
In silver strings, it spans the Earth 
And cleanses the plants in resplendent gleam

Sudden is the wind, coming to shoo away the clouds
And the sky is once more cerulean blue
As the music stops and the humdrum stills
The water seeps, giving no evident clue.

After an angry couple’s furious fight,
 As the house goes back to an uncanny calm,
The rain has vanished, leaving little trace
Cooling the Earth and causing no harm

Pandora

She used to stalk her imagination, from her perch in the shadow, on the sill,
And I still step over the spot in the darkness of the grapevine
Where she used to wait for anyone to pass by, while we pretended not to see her,
So that she could attack your ankles and see how far she could claw you, Before you ran away.
Feline objects were her enemy, and the other two hounds in her pack,
Pretended to be scared of her, and they were.
Little fishies were her delight, and flowers were nosed off to the side,
But now the birds in the vine can relax and even go to sleep.
We loved her too much, and sometimes she loved us in return
Her little chirp, and her lioness purr, we can still hear
As we see her sprawled out on the kitchen floor,
A wolf; a tiger; and a friend. 
All those of allergic persuasion were magnets to her fur
Peeling off her, as she rubbed and watched them grimace, too polite
To shoo away such an adorable creature; but their sneezes did the rest.
A piece of rope was a snake, so she jumped,
And then pretended that she knew all along, just to make us laugh.
We still do...


( written after my cat Pandora was killed by a car...)

The Fish

We never meant 
to say sorry
it was more of a smoke filled
tiring of breathless gills

The morning wakes us all
all too soon
cats on tables
and cigarettes without a flume

Time tells
all of us will die
hard to be black and white
tend to shoo away little smiles

Time has a great grace
of wage and handfuls
 of terrible mistakes

I heard today 
he shot him
little sleepy town in minnesota
been dreaming of death

and how sad that from now on
the man i once knew
will never see daylight again

what is wrong with us
society is a 
filth of regret

might fly back and visit him in prision one day
just to say hello

mistakes of others make you feel desperate

no use in making amends

talked to my dad tonight, 
gonna send me some money for Christmas

i can see his lights,
and the brilliant display

how i miss them, 
unlike no other
my dad, my sister and of course 
my drug addicted brother

aint to late to go back, 
but for what?

just maybe only for them cause no matter what happens 
my family is my heart, my soul, and my kin.

Grin and Cure It

Feeling sad?  
Well that's too bad,
But why mope around in a dark blue funk?  
Don’t let life’s trouble 
Burst your bubble.  
Why waste your time on all that junk? 
                                        
Now, life might have you in the pits, 
But it's not time to call it quits. 
Don't let those dark thoughts clutter up your mind.  
Come on now, let's meditate 
On things that cheer and elevate, 
And leave the morose, gloomy things behind. 
                                                                  
A great big laugh 
On your behalf
Might drive the gloomy mist away.
And a toothy grin 
Above your chin
Could brighten someone else’s day.                               
                                                                
A chuckle might forestall
The family doctor’s call, 
And, maybe, even shoo away the nurse.
Some stuff and nonsense matter 
Could make the day go better,
And, I guarantee, it will not make it worse.

Thank You Mom

Nine months of gestational pain 
But for me you bore it with a smile
When it hurts me even a little 
Your heart beat stop for a while 
When I am near you 
Your love wraps me and care
 When I am far from you 
Your  blessings shield me  there
When I am sick 
Your magical touch makes pain shoo away
When I am scared
Your voice makes my fear run away
In success your praise gives me strength to keep up
In failure your encouragement lets me not to give up
When things are going wrong you hold me strong
Like threads of a quilt 
Even when times are hard
You smile like a flower whose petals never wilt
Your love gives me protection 
Mom you truly are an epitome of affection 
I am so blessed with this special gift from above 
I thank God for sending you
To guide me through and shower your love 
I am thankful to you for all you do
I love you too mom as much you do

Lit

When I say: 
I will fight to the death for you,
it means
I will spew flames at those who dare
lift a hand and bruise your soul.
I will grind down to ash the person
that ever makes you feel small, or less than.
I will break the bones of those
who think your body is only theirs
to do what they want with. 
I will shoo away the ghosts
that attempt to haunt you
in your darkest hour.
I will cradle you, as I did
when you once smelled of baby powder,
when your heart breaks from
first love, 
first loss,
first pain
from those awful things you can't comprehend.
I will be your anchor,
when everything is flailing
and the wind is overpowering
and the storm is threatening to drown you.
Come back to me,
always.
Because when I say:
I will fight to the death for you,
it means
I will light the world on fire for you 
even if I get
burned along the way.
