like a Sanskrit rocket.

When He calls
it will be His name He speaks,
it will be your name that answers....

Now a Foreign Language
Sanskrit sweeping bronze and spine
riddled there when you were mine
underneath the spice and sun
cinnamon skin and sleepy rum
Now the wind has blown the words
riddled once and then disturbed
blown to dust and settled seas
salt and brined the lurid breeze....

and lift the stone of yourself
heavier,
to find a word

And if you ever demand for more,
dig the sky.

Bosom Beeping From Blouse
Outgo way ahead
Than income if stirs man’s head,
She in a shrunk blouse,
Although from a cultured house,
Oh looks a bit lowly bred.

My Family
my family tree -
nurtured, supportive Banyan
roots stay firm beneath
Strong branches stretch out,
colouring a billion leaves -
and those billion lives.
United we stand,
not by blood… but loyalty.

Wisdom to one not wise
To uninformed ears
The best of pen plain appears,
To him who can’t see,
A cross-eyed girl is beauty,
To hard to hear, jeers are cheers.

My Viva's On Visa
A pyramid tour
On my bucket list
Approach by camels
Cross an oasis
Play mahjong with sheiks
In hot desert tents
Where harem girls dance
Through wafting incense
Explore monuments
With ancient secrets
Engraved sarcophagi
Sanskrit alphabet
The airfare alone
Would make some withdraw
Camel rental's high
The pricetag's the flaw
To cross the ocean
For vacation viva
Need huge chunk of change
From Uncle Visa
