oh! boy.......

oh! boy......



oh! boy - poor boy
wangled a way
to get into
heart of pretty lady

flirts and flits
grabs flowers
takes presents
lady - sturdy, replies

tenderly repelled
machinations
of his, rippled
furiously cast

him off with
a blow of kiss
thrown away by denial.,
as lady nixed his schemes.,

being mendacious,
failed rendezvous
of making a way
into heart of Vivacious lady

party animal.........

party animal.....



party animal, pocket
filled paltry piece
of coins, his wallet
wallops and laments

splurge of money
by spendthrift.,
squanders every
penny he earns, hit

roads and tracks
moneylenders,
pawns off things
he possess

gains entry into casinos
proclaims proudly
as high roller - spends
on gambling lavishly

for high stakes, slavishly
penny worth - Heeeeeeee
indulged in spending spreeeee...!

with gleaming
shine,

face........

face........



lad walks out
frazzled, he set
to be caught
by a beautiful
lass, walks
along the streets
went past glass
house, dazzled
by attractive face,
poor lad hardly
realised it's
a doll of showcase
makes a relentless
plea to say few words
static chuckle
continues in the face
of it's, flashed a lass
of bright face
passed touching his
shoulders
startles by sudden
entrance, laughs at his
ignorance
of taking doll as
real lass,
goes about to
follow new
found pretty face...!

mind........

mind.......





dimensions of mind
unlimited, puzzled
by its power, for
every good and bad
played it's role, fooled
we by it's shrewdness,
wily and canny ability
it shows us beauty
gives us a moment
of ecstasy, agonize
as we feel the agony
mind spells it's magic
we flow and sail
in it's sea of emotions
bewilder and bewitched
struggle we ever,
to understand its gamble,
we take everything as
it comes,proceeds to
wring the life to the fullest,
extracting pain and pleasure......!

to celebrate
his birth
in joyful mirth......!

decision........

decision.......




hold behold the sight
fleeting figurines of tiny
joys, flight of desires
fancy dolls of inclinations

bends our minds visually,
steals our thought process
design material
machinations schemed

into taking us from ourselves
renders us to be slaves
of trivialities, be! cautious
of beguiling rosy scenery

for, you slide into murky
muddles, beware of spikes
shrouded as beautiful trees
of delights so hold

yourself behold the sight
ask yourself,  is it worthy?
of drawing your attention!
hold and behold the sight

take a clever decision
before you set to action.....!

take me.......

take me.......


take me along
the cloudscape
as I close my eyes
hold my hand
let's float over skies
let's leave everything
behind on earth's
crust
let's make all fall
in the furnace -
sweet nothings
and sour pleasures,
let them
fire and burn into ashes
let us fly together
to the world of
Neverland
let behold our souls
in symphony
of harmony
where we two
feel the cosmic
kingdom,
the everlasting Elysium....!

snuggle......

snuggle........




snuggled they together
taking warmth of bonfire
dusk of chilly winter
dazzled with Platonic amber

effervescent embers
sparkle, bursting into splinters,
fire flared up flickering in lividness
as both taken oath of treading paths,

- separate, henceforth! wishes
and inscribes moments
of togetherness on each other's hearts.,
heavenly affair of theirs to cross aeons....!

customary rules
fade, keep intact
usual practices, adopt
newness
gather knowledge
from agedness
enjoy modernity
ignore not the antiquity .....!

paper........

paper.......




crimson hues
of dusky radiance
touch of it
gushed thoughts
reflected into
flush of emotions
and passions
jolted I with the
brimming feelings
scrambled I, to
pen with ink and
quill, the moment
I set to write, blitz
of waves washed
away the parchment
taking along the
mood of mine,
as if to pinch my heart
I too stood the tides
of distress, poked
with waves
of words, stroked
a blow with dagger
of soul, penned
on ethereal paper
that never
yields to erasure....!

get rid......

get rid......




remember the pain
of struggle
in the course of life
travel
everyday clamour,
glamour
of scrabble for
the survival
clamber over rocks
of challenges
swallowing sweat
of sadness
toiling away with
smiles
grounding at best
is utmost,
a humble option
&  a quest
to seek divine gift
of getting
rid of difficulties.........!

indulgently lost
benevolence
unconsciously
entangled
in the hairs
of viciousness

tight embrace,
I beg to release
from your influence
I could be your
beloved - cannot

a maiden visit
fair of townlet
slender stance
with gracious looks
dazzled onlookers
with her long tresses
swaying as golden grass
glowed her face
as efflorescence, appears
as if she cloaked herself
with grassy robes,
glance of her
made birds cooings
heaped with greetings
like bracelets tinklings
as she heads along
shines as she adorned diadem of stars, glossy embellishment glow bright
under moonlight,
as clouds above made their way
enchanted by
her bewitching smile
slender lass grown she
amidst paddy fields filled with tender crops, caressed with dance by blooming buds, ruffled her mood
while she at Lily pond, blossomed kissing
flowers, to stir men up with fond fancies
who seeks her to hold & retain in their hearts......!

Peck.....


peck on cheek
a walk alongside
holding hand
moving ahead
crossing obstacles
ebbs and tides
yonder, never I,
went bonkers
conquered
quelled, awkward
challenges, emerged
with flying colours
out of tests
put by life,
moved on with
smile on face
feeling still
the moment
reminiscing the
walking, slipping
in the sand
writhing in pain,
was taken I, into arms
pecked on cheek
boosted morale
raised I, holding
little finger,
resuming
walk,
enjoying,
the strolling
along the coast.,
with raising waves,
ripples of water,
she is no other
but my mother,
my energy booster......!

        with day coming to end
       portal of night welcomed
      with opening doors, extend
        arms laced with embrace
           taking into transience,
          an impermanence and
         an instantaneous sleep
      with murmur falling into ears
      as something waking him up,
       hustled with rustle, as dream
         whispers a lullaby, whereby
          he gained consciousness
          left somnolence cognized
   what he missed out of recklessness,
careless attitude rude towards life, dude;
jolted with a falter remorse, deeds raised
in realisation & blazed with resplendence..!

every part of mine belongs to
you cells, blood cells -WBC

craving to be in union
with you, longing for

for the moment,
to merge in
unification, body & soul together.....!

here & there.........

here & there........


here and there, everywhere
you find signs, signalling
wrong and right, good and bad
hear voice, choose best choice
lest you not stumble, buckle
hold reins, keep yourself control
truckle you never to dirty desires,
as they backfires, resist, go-ahead
stop yourself advancing towards
red -the unworthy, a sign of danger
the green, worthy n pleasant,saunter
not with a falter lift up inside the inner,
at divine altar understand the signal,
good and bad, right and wrong,
you find here and there, everywhere.........!

         Moody morose jingles, as well
          as rocky, peppy numbers all
           together, a mixture of pain
        & pleasures, pain &pleasures....!

her anger.............

her anger...........


curve & curls of her
hair tufted together
as her beloved came near
to feel the flow passing his finger
didn't him touch her
she is in state of anger
an otherwise nature of her
never once shook down her
trust on her partner
but as times passed by, her
belief proved to be a sour affair
knowing after,
he turned to be cheat, who exploited her
affection & love, realized wrong of her
cudgel her brain to brace herself up, - her
heart no more beats for
resolved, to let no man to come near
leaving frailty of her
took up arms against philander
led the cause taking
as many women as along to empower....!

chrysalis...........

​chrysalis.........

budding engraver he,
hardly his hands
picks the tool, as he

tremble with thoughts
lest making
a cut on stone, goes amiss

chiselled he, within the mind imagining
the shape of figure every
detail  - carved a wonderland, creating

a whole world of himself, fairy
creatures - elves and angels,
confined himself within enclosed  by

his naively nature, as he still learns
to lay his hands on rock
still far from holding implements

just entered to into adolescence, sock
of growth, blown up his
soul to take a route of dreamy fluke

as turning into adulthood - the age of his,
least wanted, to leave (chrysalism's) bliss....!

maternal...........

maternal.........


trill of bird tuned
with maternal instincts rippled
through the breeze, moved
along, waving its wings
headed towards its
nest, as nestlings
made a subtle and
soft coo, the sound
reached
it's ear as mellifluous
voice - singing lyrical songs, as
if young - calling the mother
to come early as its getting darker,
shivering with chilling weather
coos are getting stronger
as the bird, no where to be seen, near
worried with fear
least they know that the mother
made a halt in the middle
of the way to grab, as
many maggots as she could
to feed them sumptuous meal
reaching them, as soon, spread
its wings, given the warmth
to the young with a cuddle
enjoyed lavish dinner
all cheerfully
with chirping & dancing together.........!

redemption ..............

redemption..........


spewing she
venomous words
on, whoever she feels
disgust worthy

never once realised
she has no one to take care
unknowingly entangled in the web
enmeshed in labyrinth passages

struggled to come terms with, as she
gets aged, founding herself in aloofness
alone is she now and days of hers
are coming to end with she visualized

herself
being gobbled by a SPIDER
which noting but a pure imagination

reflection of her past ignoble deeds
spreading its tentacles
disguised as diseases,

arrested her to an arm chair
with she regretting her mistakes
as
"shouldn't have belittled
underprivileged"with the thought
she laid her head rest
and prayed

for redemption
but as if its call of divine
everybody surrounded, who she
lambasted at,  so far to serve

she opened eyes with a realisation,
as nobody  inferior or superior and
all are equal to the eyes of divine.......!

mirror...........

mirror.........



woke up from deep slumber
only to find a figure that's
exactly looking like her
as if,  its her alter ego,that's

asking her to come closer
to whisper a small word
to let her know a fair
calling is awaiting, favoured

by the fortune in near
future asking her to take
the chance and not to miss
at any cost lest she regrets

hearing the voice of figure
she approached it to touch
feel and hug in order to
thank the figure as it disclosed

a message that future holds
as a man of her heart taking
her hand moving together
setting themselves at a faraway
place,

as
she tenderly touched the figure
sensed nothing like a life of sort
its just a mirror that reflected, her
image to which she was talking so far........!

bluesky..............

bluesky..........


blue skies beckoning

with thoughts flickering,
wavering mind seeking

solace, made its way
to a secluded place, found
itself in midst of sea shore

where fishing boats laying
rest after a long trawling.,
strolling along shoreline
found a place where

the disquieted mind,
could be eased
looking at the cloudy sky
relaxing itself under the
shadow of anchored boat

listening to the sound
of waves emitting soothing
tunes harmonizing
the environs , mind sets
its eye lids close
to take a nap under

its the charm of intoxicating feel...........!

how.......


how could I
&
how would I
express my sincere thanks!
would I ever remain grateful!

to those who made see
the world as beautiful  place
through their guidance

the way I
take things granted
through their given knowledge
they made me stand on feet
and asked me & not to get afloat

building castles in the air

be practical
be responsible to the actions
& be determined to generate altruistic
regard for others

have patience, pity and compassion
seeing yourself a beautiful visage
unfolding in front of your eyes

let others smile as
source to be rejoiced at
with the conviction on suggestions

I set forth to the destination
a never ending passion
deriving satisfaction
as I walk through,

following
principles & ethics set by forefathers

I prostrate myself in their honour
asking "GOD"
allow me to extend my gratitude

to let me remain ever thankful
to the elders, peers
and all those, who travel
along with me through thick and thin

till & until I take my last breath...............!

as
his eyes
fell on her

the moment changed
his otherwise, morose mood
into cheerful with a cheery feel
his heart throbbed
as
flickers of flame
to make an advance
and take a chance
to grab her palm
and give a kiss

alas!
he missed the bless
as her beau, arrives

moved on, laughing at his
              luck - a mischance.............!

                         blowing mind
                 moving along listening
          rattling sounds of skirt as she
    dancing around enraptured & absorbed
within herself, with strands of her, hair braid                
 breaking free with wavy fashion & motion
  giving tantalizing effect, as if she is calling
 & asking me to make myself near to her to
      indulge in jiving together, I jumped at
   once, heeded inner calling, approached
 her to make a move along,  held her hand,
   whizzed and fizzled she through the air
       as she disappeared and vanished,
          raised I from the bed, rubbing
               eyes as dream finished
                    with me laughing
                     at myself, again
                        went to deep
                                 sleep

phase..........


Dysphoric disposition
in a growing  child, unease
her mental condition, as she
entered a phase, where
she battles with unimaginable
encounter with questions that
irked her mind , prompting
her to seek answers, she looks
for plausible explanations as she
struggles through, at home and
outside, changes that take place
within and out, she tries
to counter the imbalance,
making herself acclimatize
by adapting the situation as
best as she can, by discussing
with peers & elders
& by taking advice from mothers
learns to deal with challenges
and manages to cross
several milestones
of life with beautiful strides.........!

to be ready for the forthcoming

you could wonder
at what's the matter
"why do I always suffer!
with the cause unclear!"

takes yourself on a joy ride
spawning those, few moments
that takes away your peace
effecting and generating issues

unresolvable, makes scratch
your head, as how to cope up
unknowingly and sometimes
by accidentally,  you steps

into murky affairs, well
it could be becoz of destiny
it could be becoz of idiocy
it could be becoz of greed

whatever is/be the reason
it crops up as the time ripens
to the shock of your imagination
making you think of its origin

you leave past, some happenings
taking everything would be fruitful
as you think of yourself as upright
truthful and impeccable

as matter of fact, you yielded
to material challenges, lost
your idealistic conscience
unconscious you become, embraced

the cloak of callousness,
the reason
behind all  your - sufferings..........!

tale............

its the day of Halloween, kids 

rejoice themselves in the attires, 

dressing as ghosts and monsters 

visit door to door, seek pleasantries 

at mid in the nights 

during a year, a long ago

it was so happened

to the surprise of a cute kid

as he lost the group & cut off

from the rest ,found himself

at the door of frightening

old woman, looking ugly

scary as witch, as the kid

entered the shanty 

a thunderstorm struck

to his scare, with roaring sound

kid took a leapt out of shock

hugged the dame - a beldam

no sooner did she took him

in her arms, then the kid 

turned

into, handsome young lad 

with she too, being turned 

into majestic  Missy maid

and as, they both espoused 

made their souls marry 

together and lived on forever

a fairytale 

I always enjoy to recall 

                          and remember..............!

yet,
the one
always craves and eager
to catch hold of unreachable
as it's out of reach, stretches
one's pocket, despite
being dime with two cents

looks
for ways to satisfy one's
desire, strays
oneself in the paths
of uncharted roads,
gets hold of unrighteous

galvanized by her presence
went on, make to his! - at once

her waving hair seemed like giving
open invitation with a hoot & hiss
as if a slithering snake with pronged

tongue ready to nibble his cheek, eyes
of hers spewing gold shining
like flashlight, a peep
into it, a feel of dozing as if she spells

incantations making tipsy his stance
as she come across seducing
his mind, body and soul
as he approached to make a touch

with his hand out of lust and passion
with concupiscence of desire, engulfs
but, gorgonized  become like a figurine
as she spurted with spouts!,

to him they like venomous whish
of sibilant snake giving angry looks
and posing questions! as
to "what itched his mind to set his
eyes on every woman"

who's so
exuberant with self pride & self respect
conscious of her strength, confident, yet
appears as innocent

you dirty minded swain! "how could take
a  woman as weak - tramp &wench"

she might be deprived
but never of loose her self control
as she, empowered and hard willed!

"you consider every lady
as embodiment of heavenly deity
you see her as divine

at times, on other hand
you take her as an object of desire
with your dualistic Psyche,

run after to up skirt even a small girl

maniac you become lost sense of yours
chases out to slake your sensual ardors"

you consider yourself a MAN
you're nothing sort of a stone!

that never enjoys the softness
of beauty, magical spell of female
and yes, as time ripens she turns
out to be as , if I, to say
                        - a femme fatale........!

flashed with the moments
long forgotten and

instance of times
mind pleased to, pleasure at,
in small activities

those never failed to deliver happiness
be it playing in mud or running around trees
flying kites, & fishing only to beget tadpoles

a dive in the local pond to the ire of mother
returning home, with clothes being  soiled,
serving dish of choice, in lividness of anger

taking into arms with piece of advice
& peck on cheek, asking to pay and heed
and look for the future as lots in place

to grab your shoulders as growing up
so many tests & trails - awaits
to make a chance to give competition, up

the ladder, raise you high, taking steps
carefully, make monumental choices

and reach the sky - as it's the limit
make mother proud as you grow eminent

for a moment mind
flashed with moments
never paid heed

of mother's request & pain
alas!

as if a given, chance
to make a mockery
of other's - looks & status

as they hold
what do  "YOU" think of your status!

it's, just and mere a wile
don't "YOU" take yourself
above from other, fellow beings,
lest, "YOU" would fall with wail

from zenith to nadir

have a look in yourself
look above once,  talk to self
& listen to inner conscience
that never falters

YOU - become slave of vagary
loose, the discretionary power
as to, what's the best for your
uplift, in the view of divinity

indiscriminately using your
bestowed power in quelling
weak and oppressed, rather
being, a torchbearer in raising

their "HOPE"

Now, I Say

"who the hell are - "YOU"
"what's your authority"

YOU - can't hold yourself
"how "YOU" set to your hold on others"

be ready with the answers
when you leave this mundane
home below, there's someone
up above waiting to pose, questions......!

PAIN - what's this
is it a sensation of body?
is it emotional distress?

or
it's one of five senses
why is it so painful even to hear PAIN
& why some enjoy giving, others PAIN

the same
just makes me think of its complexity
the feeling it induces on human mentality

it's said joy and suffering
should be seen as equal footing

and be taken,
both as complimentary to each other

may be it's
with same understanding
human -
some even, in JOY feels PAIN
& some even in PAIN cheer and gladden

agree or disagree with my contention!

subdivides into fragments

at last becomes and remains
to be, none to become a part of humans

to be shared and be parted

selene...........


oh! its so loving
to bath!
I mean - taking
bath - in the full moon
and in the open,
watching
the enlarged presence
large and round object
soul felt over the moon
may be the -
selene ! -
Greek Goddess of moon,
made me feel and fall
for, the natural
satellite of planet
that's mother earth
and as such I always
bathe looking her,
mind becomes
moonlike, with shower
and splash of the water
as my body receives
with every drop giving
the affect of ambrosial downpour
with the growth of close affinity,
day by day, towards her
as a selenophile - a moon's lover..........!

blissfully blessed forever
with occasional bicker
crossfire and squabble
made them more care
towards each other
with, agita unloaded
and
uneasiness dispelled

by not judging but by honour
lead the journey, hand in hand

happy are the cute couple

blissfully blessed forever and ever.........!

croon..............

croon...........


as I set to write
words fight to take flight
each word takes pride
giving meaningful tide
waves of thoughts tried
to come out of mind
confused I fumbled
with words being scrambled
failed them being streamlined
storm in brain occurred
with brainstorming for being oriented
to make mind relaxed and poised
drops from eyes trickled
with pleasing tinkle sound
ecstatic state being engulfed
as inharmonic and
incoherent thoughts being discarded
and
I remained to be focussed
with divine thoughts being poured
dance of words started
on the paper as they penned
with lips being lilted
as I started
to croon in praise of lord..............!

concord............

concord..........


discord and dissension
do we need these?
are we so, hunger for friction
can't we let others, at ease

to practice what they follow,
and live in harmony and peace
do we need to meddle, other fellow
and! what eligibility do we possess

to ask the faith and matters - related
to question superiority and inferiority
we are honoured with so many and varied
beliefs,tastes choices, what not by divinity

to tickle our taste buds, to test
our prudence, how best we harmonize
with other social beings and taste
the slice of felicity and happiness

accepting social customs of others
respecting mutually binding together
in every situation or activity, gathers
unity leaving, misery of communal temper,

off

building friendly atmosphere
of being compatible with all,
to achieve a goal of peaceful
coexistence must be our endeavour

courteous concordance
of preferences and other
that's - Comity, forever
and  a divine order.................!

seasons...................

seasons..............

autumn and spring
make your life zing
with seasons changing
make your mood rock and swing
enjoying yourself a being
and a part of nature's wing
experience it within and sing
a song both sad and tapping
number, and learning
that sometimes casting
of calmness, sadness is not a glooming
neither, the otherwise being a merrymaking,
just be the witness of joy of giving
of the divine, with its way of making
you balance of every situation, likening
your life to autumn by leafs falling
at the same time blooming
of fresh in the spring
so hop and howl every moment making most of everything and taking
life as, one time blessing..................!

yummy............

yummy...........


succulent and yummy
is the fruit
looking plumpy and juicy
mouthwatering is its
flavour
as it dropped from lanky
tree on the ground
kids gather around
to lay their hand,
while playing
stopped a while and darted
as if, who would! grab
the toothsome firsthand
and claim
a kid among caught, hold
of toothy,
shared happily,
divided equally
to gaiety of everybody
he took a bite of piece
from everyone as they
delightfully put in his
mouth,
its a scene,
so heartfelt
appeared to me
something to learn from
signed off and left the place
with a resolution
and conviction to pass
and share
with whatever I, possess
among well wishers
and spread cheers
of course -if not equally,
at least a bit
to the best of my ability .............................!

letter..........

letter............

epistolary of billet-doux

become stale as he set 

to epistolize with ink and 

quill, parchment parried

adroit,  as he was

about to put, saying !" you're 

outdated idiot and dullard

dodo, don't you know

times have been changed

made over with new 

tastes and interests

your beloved too afar

she is no more

waiting your letter,

written by your sweet hand

to be read, and moved ahead

she is now a smart geek

every moment of hers 

filled with busy schedule 

she hardly builds castles

in air and expects 

no charming - prince

she is on her own

confident of cudgeling,

any inadvertent

your letter faded

your emotions

became old dated 

winning her with modern

means only option, 

gumption

for the new methods

can make you, near her

just leave the pen and paper

hold the gadget, message her

make your fingers 

dance and let 

beautiful flow of feelings

pass and touch chords

in real-time",

go ahead my friend!

keep me aside I, don't mind

hold a smart pad and 

start - epistolize......................!

Day..............

Day..........


it was
like another,
and
any other day
a beautiful
and a pleasant day
with chirpy sounds
in the morning
and yawning
of folks as they up
from sleep
far
a distant, away
a tune made it's way
came through blowing
of shofar,
every body
was alerted, taking
its a call of prayer
thought
time to congregate and gather
but
to everybody's wonder
it's a terror
alas! its a signal
of war
that
erupted by
ghostlier
hostility of communal
conflagration and asymmetry
ripping apart harmony
rendering disunity.......................!

lecture..............

lecture..............


enduring and eternally
endless, is life's lecture
and instructions
chasing and prompting
us, to have the experience
of endless
and ceaseless journey
of assignments, with
a striding
stepping to proceed
and advance along with
the time
leaving the past behind
to study further, to acquire
degrees
offered by teachings of life
moving ahead with grasping
of gist
that's everything is deciduous
be it - moments of gloom or
glamour
just enjoying both, take a view
of how life presents itself,
unraveling
the unknown expectations
and pleasures,as you cross
days and nights

walking past, every moment that comes across............!

move..........

move.........


making a move!
while, think of having
one
just remember to have
a feeling, something
hidden
within and have
a peep inside your inner
an indwelling of a force
fierce - is the spirit
that
propels your fire
and thrusts you to
make
a leap and spring with
right motivation

catch on
the moment and put
your best foot forward
lest
you may falter

stand in
poise posture with
a positive stance and shoot
yourself
with passionate blast...........!

option............

option............


the moment that made you, move
with tempestuous and tumultuous
outpour of feelings, and move

that made you loose your, conscientious
upright thinking, challenge of course,
co'z, it's a test of your patience of righteous

attitude whether you influenced by
the trail of those, who tread the
path towed by fragrance of murky

physical and corporeal blithe
you have a sense of discretion
to the level of great disposition, at the

time of contingent situation
never yourself loose the chance
of using the best and gifted option

move with a right determination, since
you're the best in your truthful diction
stand at any cost, go!  never - dalliance

sillage of impression marked by your action
loved by many in reaction as admiration......!
