on the blue sari

carefully folded
she scrubs floors with tattered rags ~
sandalwood smolders

slave to his passions ~ 
beneath her silken sari
burning hatred grows...

Toiletries are not necessary for your beauty,
silk-sari and gold ornaments are not necessary;
o flower, in which dress you stay
your beauty speaks penetrating each cell of your whole body....

Soon, I’ll stop this speed poetry.
Ink will dry into gun powder.
One last spark fueled by mental friction.
Poof.
Whoosh.
Up goes inspiration in conflagration.
Just ashes remain, unfit to even nourish Sari....

A sari of soft silk
I drape your fluid grace
Flowery motifs your curves seek
Satin skin they embrace
Feather fabric you wear
Become fashion bird, fly in flair.

sari of morn floats

draping temples with orchids,

as Angkor Wat blows its mist

to flame coned incense;

and in the still of homage

pilgrims wander with their gods.

`When took a dip in Ganga
that pink sari
imbibed a lot of Advaitha.
.....glued to her skin	
and lost identity..
became a mound of her mounds
curve of her curves
and dip of her dips.
I knew how euphoric that pinky felt
When dried up and separated from her
......retained her shape....

Delirious from mad fever, 
he blew unwanted kisses from across the sea to the girl in his dreams. 
She ducked and dived and hid
but his kisses just wouldn't stop 
then she dressed a giraffe in sari
made the face up like a girl
and finally the real girl was free,
free from the the delirious mad fevered man's
unwanted kisses...

The queen of the birds Sari was a menace to the village
                  She had the prying eyes and ears for every act of spillage
                           She saw Tara's husband in Sara's bedroom
                     She called out all birds and her creaky bridegroom 
               Out came the villagers when they yelled pillage pillage pillage...

This morning too 
clouds are dominant 
water drops on
window glass 

On the lake-bank 
sits a grey kite
eyeing for the 
fish to jump 

There on road
a basket on head
filled with guava 
of a young boy 

Eighty rupees a kg 
he might sell it
in the raindrops 
a pink face 

The sari is still wet
what would wear she
does the rain know 
Jamuna is sullen...

I see wood, finely wrought carvings,
Curling and creeping up to the ceiling.
What sort of bars are these?

And navy cloaks on chequered glass,
Hang a honeyed warmth across each pane.
A lucent inch from forbidden world.

All have their eyes on me, one wears
Pearls, one in sweater and sari, one hides in an animal's skin.
And who is captive, who is free?

Is this prison, or paradise?...

Umbrella of stars hangs lucent in the sky

Flickering by as nightbirds trill the wing

One moment when hill tops wait on standby

To relish the charm of dusk, awakening.

And this blissful scenery becomes mine

Where memorials of walk take me awhile,

Into a parade of light with blinks divine

As evening’s sari wears a lovely smile.

You are so complex, so twisted beautiful,
I suppose.
You are everything I am not also something
I should not have.

I can hear your voice murmuring in the
monsoons.
I see you sway the coconut trees,
whipping the night sky.

I lift my fuchsia sari and dance in the moist
fresh earth.
Play no music
speak no words.

Your face greets my misty eyes.
You are everything I am not also
something I should not have....

In while all my favourite Goddess
Socialized in a way ACE
Giving me company dining
Besides the ethics mining
Resembling Lord Minerva
Glowing with Sun-like aura
Now in yellow silk sari
You glitter my dear fairy
Pleasant dusk today has been
In thy presence umpteen
Perhaps this yellow hue
My most favourite true
Next time I want to see thee
In the same attire spree..!
Me taciturn at thy grace
For you are an angel ace..!!...

Rain Rhyme

I wonder
I feel aqua
On my sari
Myself a new Version

It is thunder
It is an opera
I feel it mini
Form of edition

In night slumber
The lightning ala
Seems like cini
A Wonderful impression

It is time to ponder
It is a Rain-mania
On seeing spread of algi
Am like a yogi in restrain

I feel wonder
Rainbow is here, an era
Feel like it's a semi
Looks like half balloon

The father was standing with a packet of sari in his hand
The girl was not seen
My darling girl ...


Do you know what I think sometimes?
Human life suffers only, all this
Human life according to unwritten agreement
You will continue to suffer ... you will continue to suffer


I didn't look at the voice
Not all words may be spoken, if expressed
All suffering may not be alleviated
Only the troubles remain, which always happen....
