My World

A galaxy 
lives within me
through sky’s marquee
my heart beholds

one earth’s design—
as  moon, lake twine
in peace, I shine
from heaven's mold.

Sevenbits--Nature

Thunder growls beneath  fired sky
Crackling its way down  street wires
As booms pound on our ceiling.

Forceful winds roughen wheezed  noise
In a pitch quite deafening
While we  huddle together;

Enjoying silent movies.

Peacock---Visual 2

He strides
In jeweled plumes,
Flaunting majestic tail
To court a maiden of his dream,
and reel!

A Christmas Memory

A truant blizzard's hurl allowed shadows hide
when the night was pale. And all the dark ravens yelled
as I buried my cat, last year, frozen and dead. That all
the lilies of in between, wailed of my Christmas eulogy.

Her Chair

hush now my daughter
let lamplights crown your damp hair
waiting for beaded prayers
to bathe teary sky 
empty Mom's chair rocks no more…
heaven sails with her pearled lips
 


Choka Me, Dr. Ram Mehta

My Apostles--Argus

I inhabited a small house near the shore
where the fishes of men hauled their nets,
in dawn’s waters under boats
of wood sheltered by thinning masts.
Time was when they were like kin of god
Trying to feed the hunger of men;
with bodies burnt by a merciless sun
as hands, blowin' free,
allayed 2,000 souls or more.

Riding through for many hours, to catch food
They  now pray for bounty when nights break,
While we strum guitars, " The king will come",
That would supply our children’s bowls.
Our trawlers arrive and throw the sword
Weary from roughened winds, leaf, and streams
Yet,I watch them smiling under a darkened cloud,
Looking like apostles of our tiny harbor.

Ocean Wild

ocean wild lashes--

swallowing dump of bodies

against mild-pink clouds

Response To Potpourri

Her mood changes, I’ll never guess
But, she’s the breath that soothes time’s ache---
Mildly rambling,my fond words bring
A love nurtured through season’s test.

Hidden Anger

My contempt for anger always shows
Unaware it breeds in my own veins--
How to be better, my heart follows
A pathway of kindness this like follows
