Very nice beginning, straight away establishing a special bond – “She was thirteen, I was six.” Loved the poem.

Elegantly expressed, which reminds me of a question that I often wonder about – Why are things beautiful at their edges?

Through the Window
Through the window the world is seen
The horizon sparse orange
Is dispersed at the mountainous bends,
The returning birds making up the skyline
And monsoon clouds covering the […]

Final Trip to Allahabad
That was our final trip together;
The Maha Kumbh Mela in Allahabad
Where you asked me to donate clothes to a Sanyasin,
I did, but the loin cloth that I wore:
You smiled, […]

Unblemished Face
Hidden emotions deep behind
Otherwise unblemished face
Small eyes looking for light from some dark corner
Lips mistimed a quiver
Patience shifting to the slender limbs
Sauntering […]

I Once Killed a Monster
I once killed a monster
With one straw and a half
It had more magic in it
Than you saw in Harry Porter.
The monster laughed aloud
And shook the very mountain
He took it […]

Two Razing Bulls
In a crowded market place
Two razing bulls stood facing each other
Snorting with passion,
Tension building up for the busy migrant onlookers
Caught in the snarl;
Mouths wide […]

From Another Earth
A handful of eternity thrown into the eyes
Sublimely closed for the journey
Back to earth one,
Fighting the sinusoidal waves
Of matters criss-crossing many earths.
Hour […]

To be encircled by your glorious fingers
That slow rumble of hot pouring
Over the evergreen shrub
That escaping smile
While raising the cup to the lips

Lost Kite
How often have I cried
To hold that orange and green colored kite
In my tiny hands
And let it shore higher up in the air
Gently gliding, furiously spinning
Zig-zag, zig-zag, further […]

Lovely imagery in this. It’s easy to see the kid’s heart lift while flying the kite and then get lost losing it. Builds a fragile and tenuous connection between us and our joys.
“Till the thread could hold no more”Bittersweet. Well done.

Thank You. Lovely interpretation. Your words are so encouraging.

Dedalus’ Flight
It is not worth staying back
For my church, my family and my country
Or the moocow coming down the road
To meet me …
The artist in me craves for freedom
What if there are s […]

A Grain of Rice
Outside, the sun displayed its prowess
Over the petty organisms called life
As if to burn the coolest of minds;
And Draupadi was burning too
With frustration, with anguish:
No […]

Dear cursed li’l frogs
Ye hold the evening in your mouths
For heaven’ll smile at your ugliness –
The mystery of your beauty unbound,
You’ll kiss the dawn of freedom.
Don’t fret li’l ones […]
