There once was a 
student named Gest.
Among all his 
classmate,he's best.
He dumped all his 
books
and followed all 
cooks.
Which lastly he 
failed much the rest....

       May i kiss you softly
          ‘pon  thine flesh
           with aspiration
         of condoning gest'

               Pillow me
                bed me
      request from this soul
       what force will cause 
           yourn agitation

       I am your tenacious
                   yes
             determined
                   tool...

always runs from the truth
can’t leave well enough alone
has no desire to build or create
does more harm with a lie than a knife or gun

never admits to having horns and a tail
filled to the brim with subtext
wants others to do the explaining
will stab you in gest

spends a lifetime trying to prove otherwise
finds it feeble to give an apology
will sleep with just about anything
will bury you for free...

Avian life of mine
Blooms with wishes divine

Candle - one more added
Days with joy - so padded

Eid too joins the party
Full moon blesses us - hearty

Grandeur unveils autumn
Hard rock shows us green thumb

Iambic feet of three
Joins to form poetry

Kingly gest of season
Lets love play in vision

Moments lived with pleasure
Narrate hidden treasure

Opulent love from you
Plethora brought anew

(C) Anindya Mohan Tagore (Bobby)

A Montague. A Capulet.
‘Twas at a masquerade they met.
Two strangers caught each other's eyes
as strains of love began to rise.

Upon a courtyard balcony,
amidst the angst of family,
‘twas there the pair professed love's need -
though Kismet's kiss would intercede.

Alas, the banes of passion bleed -
resolving gest through tragedy.
The foils of fate singed hot as coals
yet death would reunite their souls.

Two hearts in heaven overflow -
One Juliet. One Romeo....
