Jab Bhi Aati Aankhen Nam Kar Jaati Hain

Though time, like us, is separated
Into many hours and minutes,
Even our arms, like clock hands,
Will someday meet again.

And hope the owner expects
To take a licking
And keep on ticking
Over and over like a Timex

On her left third finger with care

Sunlight is the way Sun smiles 
All day times till falling of the dusk 
Working hard to make more smiles 
Until falling of the dawn

The Something In the Air

miasmic,


alighting the foul bourgeois powers that be


bounce like carrion crows


on the prone corpse 


of the bled world.

  He climbs the steps

  Though crossing crowded streets
    he's agile as a jaybird

Tangerine


                     A yellowish orange color
                             It's like gold
                     That sparkles in the rain.

Premium Member The Frog

Surging forward
like ocean swells,
the frog happily hopped
gingerly along its way.

Like stoppable shores,
deep and deeper holes awaited him.

the ballroom dancers
                     pirouette like tornado
                        divinely waltzing

Pretty

her smile could melt
    ice cream on top of
mt. Everest.
she didn't think she 
    was that cute.
but her name must've
    been Just Pretty...

Premium Member Words Matter

A relic or the missing link?
You're like “Plato” they say—Do they think
I'm that colossal 
Or a sentient fossil—
A “Play Dough” primordial stink?
