For Eugi's Weekly Prompt - GRATITUDE A ‘no life’ realm exists somewhere,And I- from the soil there, was made.Blood – I was given- whenjust a piece of flesh.And later a heart, heartbeat,hands and legs, a head and a face.I started the act without a script,I was unaware of who had it.I danced to the tune...

Rusty Reminder
There shall come a day,When this greeneryShall just be a speck of memory.Those waters will soon be gone,And the remains of those lilies,So proudly rising from the mud,Shall be one with it.And that red bridge,Shining so brightAmidst the green paint,Shall soon remain a remnant,- a rusty creaky reminder,Of the beautiful Nature,That once lived here-Lest conscious...

Cherish
Written for Eugi's Weekly Prompt I turn the pages of my mind,My hollow eyes meet a young girl,With sparkling eyes, staring at me.Less freckles and lines,Messy hair but no colored streaks,Lean but fat with ideas,Eyebrows undone but swollenWith shining droplets of sweat.Adorning some silly wishes of mind,She floats around- weightless,Worries and scars so unknown.Turning back...

VOW THRO’ GREEN and PURPLE/ Poem for 19/10/20219
When heaven painted sky in Purple,Hand in hand, we moved to the haven,The vow -through all colors- green and purple.The journey to the land of purple,Where Lavender and Bougainvillea- full bloom inside a cavern, When heaven painted sky in Purple.When their bond so strong through trouble,We too did try to make love concern,The vow- through...

Glow Worms/ Poem
Image Courtesy : Pinterest Hail them glow worms- Seeming so trivial, Yet so noble. Bearing the torch, Carrying the glow- the fire, Rising from lands- Wet and moist and humid, Celebrating the irony- The opposites- Water and Fire. They do not trumpet, They do not flash, Their vivid aristocracy. Growing their name, From the low... Continue Reading →
Soul of the Ocean /Poem
Ocean or the Sea?A big body of water?Is she just that?Well, if you ask me,I would call her a big Soul.A big big soul of emotions-Emotions galore within,Of intense glee and pride,Love and hurt,Sorrow and vengeance.Deep yet shallow,Vast yet wee,Mysterious yet obvious,Strange yet familiar.She rules it all,Yet she surrenders.She bears stories untold,Of pirates and ships,And...
