Dearth of happiness

2009-09-27T02:30:00.001+05:30

Every flower resembles your face.
They do not make me happy rather
They speak to me of those days
When we would have dearth of food
Clothing and accessories to make
a living together united a modest life
in a much bigger cell called family
Other than one I am now in expecting
Better days of fulfillment to come.
Every flower reminds me of promises
Which I never made literally but
Always understood them been made.
Now I have dearth of happiness which
in dearth of food I surely didn't have.

One more poem written written

2009-09-26T02:04:00.005+05:30

Dear ones.
This is just one more poem written
Which will not cease my pain or yours.
Which will only pass from me to you
and from you to someone else and
We will all share the joy of pain together.
And together we will enjoy the pain
Passing it from eye to eye and
brain to brain polluting virgin minds
Letting the world know how the mankind
Suffer and causes to suffer his and her

Dear ones.

This is just one more poem written
This is just one more poem written.

Love costs too much

2009-09-12T22:46:00.002+05:30

Life is much real without love.
You can feel it, touch it and decide
what's good and bad for you unlike
when you're in love from the beginning
till the end endlessly.

The love takes you away from you
somewhere to a place where no friend
can truly reach to help you to come back
to your true orbit of life.

And the worst of it is,
it leaves you nowhere,
alone in a desert deserted.
Only if you can manage to thrive
alike a cactus,
may be there comes a day
when you feel,
love is not bitter alone
may be then you will
write a poem on love
which everyone but you
will appreciate.
And defying to openly regret
when you're all alone
will say to yourself
' Love costs too much'.

Blind

2009-09-12T22:45:00.001+05:30

I'm not blind because I can see your faults.

Too far isn't far away

2009-09-12T22:43:00.002+05:30

Too far I thought was the place
where I wanted to go far away.
Reaching there far away from you
that place I found was not too far.

Now that I lived in a place
not far away from you at all.
I could now reach to you instantly
but too far it was now I believed

Dislike

2009-09-12T22:43:00.001+05:30

I know someone
who wants to live with everyone
I also know someone else
who wants to live aloof from everyone
and I do realize
everyone loves none of them too much.
Everyone feel pity for someone.
Everyone feel jealous of someone else.
I feel I dislike
someone, someone else and everyone.
and I also feel
They dislike me.

Those red velvet roses

2009-09-12T22:42:00.001+05:30

Those red velvet roses resembled my heart.
I wished to place them right beside yours’
in the pretext of wishing a very happy birthday to you.

But they bloomed in the V.C’s garden in literary form.
Stealing was only way out for me to get them I thought.
I didn’t think it was a big crime that I must restrain.

The night was dark and also I was in a black costume.
Hardly could anyone separate me from the darkness
as I slithered inside the rosy rows secretly scrawling.

Only two things now glittered, my eyes and the scissors
as I plucked those roses and put them close to my heart
safely there within my robe, fresh and intact.

Now that I think of those roses years ahead of time
I feel to know if they could reach there close to your heart
I feel to know if you could see the thief and separated his wishes from them!

Search

2009-09-12T22:41:00.001+05:30

Shivaji Dattatreya Pahinkar, Parbhani, Mumbai, now lost.
Debmalya Chakraborty, Agartala, Patna, now lost.
Tapas Bhattacharya, Agra, Patna, now lost.
Raja Chatterjee, Rourkela, Patna, now lost.

I’ve been searching friends whom I’ve lost
Somewhere in my past with whom I’ve also lost
a part of me and whom I wish to get back in my life.
to make myself a whole happy person right now.

They must have hidden themselves behind numbers
which I do not know, which I search almost everywhere.
Strongly I do believe my friends will respond me instantly
Only If I can dial exactly the ten digits they belong to.

I have those ten digits which only need be arranged
In proper order to reach each of them but I don’t know
Those few cherished combinations to reach them out.

These digits are so known yet so much unknown
Every time I fail to assemble them in desired order
To make them resemble to the faces of my lost friends!

Helplessly at last, I write this open note to you
To million hearts living in every degree, minute and second
Whom I expect will help me to reach out my lost friends on Earth.

Ready to be kicked

2009-09-12T22:40:00.001+05:30

When my expectations grow I start feeling worried
when my dreams approaches near I start feeling worried
when a relationship tends to turn closer I start feeling worried.

Life has taught me very well that expectations are very fragile.
Life has taught me very well that dreams are always unreachable
Life has taught me very well that realtionships are only to be broken.

Blame me not if I fear to come close to you.
Blame me not if I feel about myself untouchable.
Blame me not if I become agile to go back to my comfortable loneliness.

Forgive me if I have somehow broken your peace of mind.
Forgive me if I have somehow caused your heart pain for once.
Forgive me if I have somehow made you feel sick of my presence.

Please don't insist me to come alive before you.
Please don't insist me to live in a smokeless world.
Please don't insist me to sing a song I have long forgotten.

Just do me a favor and tell me that you don't like me.
Just do me a favor and tell it on my face very straight.
Just do me a favor and kick me out of your life without hesitation.

Just do me the favor before I melt in your affection and die.

Water says it all

2009-09-12T22:39:00.002+05:30

Water in the sky and
water in the eye
How I wonder they
resemble so high!

How I wonder they
tell you so true!
Time to say goodbye
Time to say go.

Help

2009-09-12T22:37:00.002+05:30

Uprooted plant
from its veins
transpires
water droplets
Before it dries
Before it dies

Uprooted plant
tries to sip in vain
water droplets
From the air unkind
Before it dries
Before it dies

Reasons

2009-09-12T22:37:00.001+05:30

I didn’t care
For a reason to sing
For you or me
For none there at all.

Time has now passed away
Songs are all gone
My vision’s now clouded
by million reasons.

Oh, such a great fall!

Truth is also a lie

2009-09-12T22:32:00.000+05:30

Truth isn't what you tell.
Truth isn't what I listen.
Truth is what I feel.

Truth isn't what I write.
Truth isn't what you read.
Truth is what you realize.

Truth is also a lie.

I dictate

2009-06-26T13:14:00.005+05:30

I dictate to my mind, ” Don’t feel bad.”
I dictate to my soul.” Don’t feel sad.”
I insist to go for versions up-to-date.
I dictate to them, “Update, update.”

I dictate to me for getting exchanged
a set of new versions of mind n soul
which will better digest all audiovisual
treats of life without being much upset.

Living in the age of vista with the ’98
not possible, not possible, upgrade
I dictate to my mind, ” update, update.”
I dictate to my soul, ” update, update.”

Our Great Indian People

2009-05-17T01:38:00.033+05:30

Our Great Indian People have shown their great might

In millions of ballots they have written their will of right.

They have sent the message to the politicians smart

that people have much wide vision that can keep apart

pseudo king makers from the power and how to bring

into the power an idol of aspirations a real would be King.

Our Great Indian people have spread the message very clear

politicians should be service minded and not a dirty player

Our Great Indian people have again shown their great strength

which a mathepolitician will fail to measure by any unit of length

The flag of democracy is uphold all above here in our land

How glorifying and proudly unfurled! Come on see my friend

[ this poem is my tribute to the people of India giving mandate

for a stable Govt. in the country in 2009 parliamentary election]

People of this town

2009-05-10T08:16:00.029+05:30

People of this town would once share the glory
of standing beside the million people who were in misery.
Afflicted people from the adjacent war ridden place
sought refuge here and got it with such a grace.

People of this town had once such a brave hearts
they felt pride in sharing belongings baring all ifs and buts.
People of this town then despite becoming very poor
had broad minds which would have widely open door.

People of this town would be such compassionate and kind
searching the globe perhaps such people you'd nowhere find.
They would share a plate of rice even in severe dearth of food
and in matters of sharing love and care they won't surely brood.

People of this town would surely not live with fear in their mind
and surely would have protested any act seemingly very unkind.
But people of this town now alas, have become very rich
else how the cry of poor from the street may not to them reach!

People of this town now do not feel at all any shame
when street lumpen beats street infants in a mood of game.
People of this town devour the sight of a child falling dead
and do not feel any sympathy for them who've just been preyed.

The people of this town are now selfish and until they are hurt
they like to act as deaf and dumb who have also lost their heart.

Tail tale

2009-05-03T14:02:00.016+05:30

Listen, listen.
I’ve got a tail.

I can wag it well
to happily dwell.
It helps me well
to happily dwell.

Listen, listen.
I’ve got a tail.

Time and elephant

2009-05-03T13:59:00.020+05:30

Time is that elephant to the blind.
Interpretations are varied in kind.
No one's wrong in his perception
If considered one’s own limitation

Time’s too big an entity to behold
Within two eyes how can one hold
it’s changing color and shape true
it’s varied forms and run to and fro

Need

2009-05-03T13:54:00.011+05:30

Fear not the devil and Fear not the God

Fear only yourself who is often a fraud.

I remain thankful

2009-05-03T12:05:00.013+05:30

Oh God, listen to me. I remain very thankful to thee
for the blows and woes of life as they come to me.

Comparing those of others before I try to make a cry
saying that my sorrows are weighing more I feel shy.

In showering love and care you have been much kind.
Scope of saying I have not been cared I do not find.

Before putting me into the trials you’ve always been
careful to give me the courage I have always seen.

Strength enough to bear the stress of life I’ve seen
You have always poured before the time me within.

Oh God, listen to me. I remain very thankful to thee.
For showering much more love and care upon me.

Digital deluge

2009-05-03T12:02:00.013+05:30

When the world was yet to turn into a global village
When we were yet to start living at our fingertips

When we were yet to cede to our digital identities
we’d live much closer in our inerasable memories.

Forgetting was not easier and we’d need decades
for erasing memories of togetherness from minds.

Love and hatred would not grow in haste but slowly
being irrigated with the flow of care and negligence

We would be allowed pretty long time to regret
our less wise acts and for getting prim redress.

Every moment would be weighed with much wisdom
before we could conclude saying we needed an end.

But then there suddenly came a digital storm to blow
away us from our own selves and a digital deluge flow

To rob us of our patience and to tell us about time
escaping too fast and about our need to hasten up

We found ourselves all equipped needing only to press
a few button to delet memories to bring up a digital end.

Get lost

2009-05-03T12:00:00.006+05:30

Get a new sim for you almost free of cost
Let the world know that now you are lost

Losing one’s self had never been so easy
Every now and then people are going crazy

They are getting lost whenever they're feeling
to get lost for ever before closing any dealing

Choice remains open before you and me too
Why to sit rooted not fleeing but in situ?

Why to lose a chance of getting lost in a maze
If losing is the game Let us join into the craze.

Thinning

2009-05-03T11:57:00.006+05:30

I often feel
my existence's thinning very fast
As if I must thin, else,
the balance on earth
soon cease to exist.

But I dislike thinning.
Thick layers of acquaintances
I like the most for myself.

Caring my wishes a little
everyday my name surrenders
to new tags,
to new PRONOUNS
denoting my renewed existence.

I stand across
the epitaphs
bearing my names

faded
forgotten
thinned.

Cost of a life and the conflict

2009-05-03T11:53:00.008+05:30

Oops!
The puppy yelled in pain till it went out of all senses.
Hardly it could stagger up to the roadside wailing in severe pains
before it succumbed to a state of unconsciousness for now or forever.
You, an unknown offender drove the car away not even caring to look back.
I walked up to my home musing on the cost of a life and conflicting rights.

2009 A.D

2009-05-03T11:50:00.008+05:30

A page mark of time, the year 2009
people do not rhyme, yet remain fine.

They'd rather listen to music for hours
walk for a mile talking through towers.

Sitting before screen they'd rather chat
for hours they'd gossip once they'd start.

Someone would like to watch only T.V
Sports, soaps and news whatever may be.

Electronic age has made people smart
living in an era of science and living art.

Signs

2009-05-03T11:47:00.007+05:30

Someone not dead may not be alive
may only be breathing.
Someone not sad may not be happy
may only be laughing.
Someone not mad may not be sane
may only be loving.

Forgive me, my enemy

2009-05-03T11:29:00.015+05:30

Forgive me. my enemy I have caused you such a harm
You could not protect yourself by using any of your arm.

Forgive me, my enemy that you could not measure my strength
Of bearing and enduring your tyranny by breadth or by length.

Forgive me, my enemy for allowing you to go on undisturbed
In your mission of harassing and suppressing not encountered.

Forgive me,my enemy for showing tolerance to your devilish deeds and
Forgive me for not showing opposition or deterrence till the end.

Forgive me that by allowing you the liberty to do anything you liked
I have allowed you to become a devil and my silence've now striked.

Forgive me that now your name is defamed and now you are ruined
Look East or West, North or South blowing against you the wind.

How to lose a friend

2009-05-03T11:21:00.009+05:30

How to lose a friend if you ask me
'Not a hard task, I'll say,'how easy come see'.

For losing You need not tell him to go very straight
Just pretend that you’re busy by looking at the gate.

If it does not work just open little mouth
Tell him you’re tired and just you’ve come from the South.

Keep your ears closed (only God knows why they remain open)
Pay no heed to his words till such seem to happen

That he gets very bored, little irritated and makes a little fuss
Why instead of listening to his words you are looking through the glass

In the meanwhile even if you feel a thirst for a little cup of tea
Forget it for now till you make him go out beyond see.

If all of them do not work just make a last try
Ask for some money from him telling you have gone very dry.

Yet there’ll be a few who’ll stick to you like glue for ever
Tell them to go now and not to come back till you come out from a fever.

How to feel unhappy

2009-05-03T11:15:00.007+05:30

How to feel unhappy? How to nicely sob?
See I do it often.It’s not a hard job.

Reasons to feel happy always there they are
Comparing your woes, feel it, with those of their.

But I guess it well, like me you too
Love to weigh blessings and detest weighing woe

Like me you ever overlook it rather
Who has lost an eye or who has lost his radar.

Who has lost his job or who has even died
Does not make me worried. Never I have cried.

If it ever happens that I start feeling happy
I look at your riches to find myself unhappy.

Come on, flow

2009-05-03T11:12:00.007+05:30

O, my Tears, come on flow
deluging my eyes, come on blow.

Come on tears, flow at ease.
Need not you fear any tease.

Now I have withdrawn every bar
Eyes are not limited by gender.

Forsaken dream

2009-05-03T08:35:00.011+05:30

Related to you somewhere afar in a forsaken dream
I find myself in a frame of forgotten time and place.
In a dungeon there remains a part of me imprisoned
I reach there often to have a glimpse of our existence.

There you live with me always afresh with a smile
Which never droops apart from your face engraved
You walk with me there in a vista of forgotten past
sit beside me and hold my hands in yours beloved.

Nothing remains alike

2009-05-03T08:32:00.010+05:30

Trust no time.Time is a forgetful friend
Changing very fast is it's perpetual trend
Oblivion’s a state we reach at the end
Nothing remains in place alike, friend

No joy, no sorrow, no foe not a friend
No love, no hatred dear adhere till end
Very fast we forget what’d we planned
Nothing remains in place alike, friend.

Poetry again

2009-05-03T08:29:00.010+05:30

Love collapsed.
Relations collapsed.
Friendship collapsed.
Bewildered I sat on a heap
of wasted times which I reaped.
With the left over days in my hand
I sat confused what to do with them
before I threw them away, one.....by......one
into the mudded pool which was also collapsed.
But soon they turned into lotus of my abstract thoughts
I glanced at them bemused how everything was transformed!

Fear

2009-05-03T08:12:00.009+05:30

I fear not the fear itself but O, my dear
Losing your love's my only greatest fear.

Let us again be stranger

2009-05-03T08:07:00.007+05:30

Let us forget to expect
anything just in return
of love, care and anger
Let us again be stranger.

Let us break so apart
that we forget our faces
remember a smile no longer
Let us again be stranger.

Lo

2009-05-03T00:45:00.011+05:30

Lo, You think me a fool because I'm not like you.
Look, what he thinks of you becuase you're not like him.

One thing I fear you'll never understand why
We are so different in our thoughts and outlook about life.

You want me learn your techniques of winning the game
while you fail to see my disregards about your achievements.

You remain busy showing me the miracles of your magic wand
while you overlook a piece of smile swiftly flashing over my face.

Look

2009-05-03T00:42:00.006+05:30

How wonderfully perfect's the Nature, Look.
Look like a poet, look like a scientist, Look.
Look like an artist or look like a child, Look.
If you are none of them yet I'll say you, Look
Look like a man as just you yourself but look.

How wonderfully perfect's the Nature, Look.
Look with your eyes and with your ears, Look
Look with your nose and with your skin, Look
Look at the Nature using your tongue, Look.
Look at the Nature using your mind but Look.

How wonderfully perfect's the Nature, Look.
Look when you're awake and sleeping, Look.
Running, walking, sitting, eating, Look.
Look when you're thinking, drinking, Look.
Losing, winning, laughing, crying, Look.

How wonderfully perfect's the Nature, Look.
For getting and forgetting you need Look
For daring, sharing, caring you need Look
For loving and for leaving you need Look.
for refreshing and rejuvenating you need Look

How wonderfully perfect's the Nature, Look.
Look at the Nature using your heart too, Look.

Disobedient eyes

2009-05-03T00:31:00.005+05:30

My eyes reflected my lust
I abashed mixed up in dust

A pair of glasses at last
I ashamed got for a must.

My eyes now at a very ease
looked at whatever they please

Free from a deadly disease
my eyes now greatly appease

Weapon eyes

2009-05-03T00:26:00.004+05:30

Weapon eyes penetrates not body but mind
It causes no blood. It leaves no trails behind
It kills no life but deals with it in way so cruel
that with terrible pain agony n strain you yell.

Weapon eyes has voice that you do not hear
but feel deep in heart and you tremble in fear.
Weapon eyes trades your virtue for it's vice.
Look at them bold and tell you don’t care ice.

Combo

2009-05-03T00:20:00.007+05:30

Now I’m no more in limbo
thought a lot so long akimbo

Heaven and Hell are on earth!
They come in a pack combo.

Who are You? How are You?

2009-05-03T00:17:00.006+05:30

Who are you my dear God Almighty?
Allah? Ishwar? kind father of Jesus?

How are you related there in heaven?
Are you there in truce among yourselves
with each of your billion followers
who have at last reached your door
after having long heritage of enmity
there on earth within themselves?

Are you there in piece my dear?
Are you there in peace?

Prerequisite

2009-05-03T00:13:00.004+05:30

I hear, you believers asking me to hasten
for booking a seat for me in heaven, Jannat
Paradise or Swarg wherever I may deem fit
but booking is a must or I may be the last
person to enter heaven’s door or I may be left
outside the gate repenting my deeds not done.

But whom I tell my woes that I have but alas
forgotten to earn my coins to obtain the pass.
Whom I tell my sorrow that for centuries long
I have stalled undecided thinking which door
to enter into that place full of heavenly grace,
and undecidedly I halted in my mundane base.

Whom I tell my trouble of finding myself unable
solving the sole puzzle of ideal plan for travel.
Whom the best should I try to reach at the end
If He lives in the Jannat, Swarg or in the Heaven
Will someone be so kind to tell me it heart driven
If that is the end of ways and if He is the only Even.

Location

2009-05-03T00:04:00.005+05:30

In the vast realm of God's billion creations
I have to trace and interpret my exact location

measuring with acute precision I have to know

my horizontal, vertical and angular distances
perfect up to every degree, minute and second,

from them who praise God for gifting a life
from them who refuse to thank Him for this act

from them who say they are blessed with it
from them who say they feel they are cursed.

Once I am done my friend I shall let you know
exactly where I am, how I am and why I am.

Incapable

2009-05-02T23:59:00.008+05:30

She’s not well.
that's enough fuel
for me to brood.

I can’t alas cry!
Eyes have become dry
of emotions crude!

Though I am alive, alas!
Yet a man dead
in her troubled nights.

I am no solace for her
though my heart prays
in her troubled days.

**(dedicated to my elder sister)

Love is

2009-05-02T23:54:00.008+05:30

I don't wonder why Love is the word most hated
I don't wonder why hate is the word most loved

Expectation

2009-05-02T23:43:00.006+05:30

I haven’t said here anything.
I haven’t written here anything.
I haven’t indicated here anything.
Yet you believe I've surely kept
something hidden for you here
in this blank page and I've must.

This is called expectation.

Boneless

2009-05-02T23:35:00.004+05:30

Time's often a domesticated dog.

Minds frightened hide behind fog.

Faces in mirrors look like frog.

Going boneless's now in vogue.

Meet the boy

2009-05-02T23:32:00.005+05:30

The boy didn’t grow since he had become a boy.
His life was not common one like those full of joy.

The world he feared to him was harsh and very unkind.
The boy remained busy playing with his musing mind.

He didn’t play too much with the boys of his equal age
In true sense he feared confronting with his own image.

Rather children below his age made his best playmates,
The boy felt it was cozy living alone than facing the straits.

The boy was roving around the people and tried to live
in a manner as he could best accomodate and contrive.

Between love and war he found the later was always true.
This is how he had to grow halting fearing even to grow.

The boy declined to wish for wishing for him was a crime.
because he was always advised for waiting for the right time.

And the time would surely forget to come to the little boy.
And the boy would surely forget to wish as he was very coy.

Searching tranquility in loneliness he was alone from the rest
What none else have bothered to think he found them the best.

Pondering on why the things didn’t come to him as easy
the boy remained too obsessed with his thoughts very busy.

The boy also loved time and again till he was almost told
Love was good but for living it was not useful like the gold.

Love needed be accompanied with perpetual bliss to stay
He was never told but feared people whispering his foul play.

In his empty hand he had only some roses to offer to his max
once he cried in love but soon realizing sheared them with an axe

The boy loved to speak out straight from his heart not brain
had no other endeavour but winning hearts lingering in pain.

Alas! He found them there not too many and none for too long.
Almost all he found them haunting pleasures in desires strong.

Desiring was growing and growing was decaying what he saw
but keeping distance from him, time somehow broke the law!

Though the boy was helpless but to grow in external bind
but I know he remained a boy not agreeing to grow in mind.

What you call it I don’t know if it was all his deliberate will
but seeing everyone else growing but himself he felt a thrill.

The boy still remains young in his mind with a wrinkled face
Don’t fail to greet him whom somewhere you may trace.

Meet the boy who is also very shy who may come to meet
Close to your heart whom you may find awaiting a nice treat.

Slightest blow of negation he may feel becoming very cruel,
else he may like to nest in your heart and love there to dwell.

Gaps

2009-05-02T21:26:00.007+05:30

Gaps remain.Alas! In gaps
Flying wishes forgetting to fly fall.
Desires soldering dreams suddenly stall.

Gaps remain.Alas! In gaps
Mind recoiling goes to slumber deep
Virtue's traded for vice always cheap.

Gaps remain.Alas! In gaps
denied justice wisdom helplessly wilts.
Flag upholding the faith on truth alas! tilts.

Likewise a good Samaritan

2009-05-02T21:21:00.012+05:30

If you've been loving someone befallen into deep blues
You may like to listen my words giving you some clues
about how to get rid of those sticking strains and pains
how to restore clear sky from black clouds and rains.

If you've been loving someone broken your heart into pieces.
Fear not it will fix surely and the pain will surely recess.
You may find me of some use if you allow me to come close.
I may help you in learning lessons of Life's dramatic prose.

Don't waste time asking how they'll help you to become high.
You need only to become a learner and you need only to try.
'All I have lost in my life' is what just you have to me said.
Hence you have nothing to lose in hearing what I plead.

Fear not, my fee you need not pay an amount very high.
I'll surely not take a penny from you and I don't surely lie.
If you feel my medicine works, help you laugh at woes
I'll feel you have paid your bills and I have paid my dues.

Windows' 2009

2009-05-02T21:19:00.011+05:30

Sitting beside my open Windows sending ethereal byte
waiting you for responding me from the other side of night.
Here you have my token of love for you a bucket full of glee.
Do you send me a bouquet of sunlight hearing to my plea?

O my distant heart my dear, don't you call me an intimate friend?
Keep your heart and Windows open to allow me greetings send.
Take my grey for blues of yours and silver as much as you need.
Don't feel shy to cry aloud or laugh as much, I'm waiting to heed.

Doors

2009-05-02T21:16:00.008+05:30

Doors open and closed are all virtually seen.
If I'm not an idiot what is written there on it
a welcome note or a statement forbidding
By smelling wood I can feel before I get in.

Doors are not only doors but also faces behind.
Closing my eyes I can visualize them very well.
What's waiting for me inside I need not be told
While approaching a door but I know it for certain.

A monologue

2009-05-02T21:04:00.005+05:30

Sinking into the abyss of thoughts
leaving no murky corner of the past
revisiting the graves of frozen days
forgotten words and forfeited lusts
who you there throwing lights
not afraid of the blues you may reap?

what are you but a particle of dust
in the shore of petrified time I ask
drawing in vain your face on space
forgetting the roles of living and the race
sincerely trying to paint with the brush?
What do you wish? Living beyond trust?

Need not say

2009-05-02T14:04:00.003+05:30

I can hear what you do because I have ears.
I can see what you whisper because I have eyes.
I can smell what you conceal because I have a nose.
I can taste what you offer because I have a tongue.
I can feel what you pretend because I have skin.

I have also a brain that tells me what is not what.
I have also a heart that loves that hates of it's own.

Why to explain if you are, who you are and how you are?
Look at me I don't explain yet you know who I'm and how I'm.

A lengthy episode

2009-05-02T14:01:00.003+05:30

What's life but chasing dreams
Swallowing simultaneous stimulation
of hope and despair knowing
the fragility of desiring
the end of despairing?

What's life but passing days
in monotonous rhythm boring
known long before in worrying
droop-by-droop siping
bitterness pouring?

Solitary Heart

2009-05-02T13:56:00.005+05:30

You have always taken mother for granted,
disgustedly ignored brothers and sisters,
and obeyed father under various compulsions,
relied on friends with hidden suspicions.
Love has many times knocked your door.
but you have always refused it to come in.
You have always looked outside for love.
My selfish, ungrateful, ugly heart,
now there is none to say you ' I love'.

You truly deserved this punishment

Alas! my solitary heart.Alas! Alas!

Friends!

2009-05-02T13:50:00.003+05:30

Do they hear footsteps fast?
How I wonder they better forecast
Spring or Winter, how they come to know
before they come and before they go?

How I wonder they could foresee fate?
In coming and going I never see them late!
Friends! I do fear, both of them are true!
They come and go or just come to go.

Poetry

2009-05-02T13:48:00.002+05:30

Adam looked at the lonely moon.
throughout the night he mused

he was all alone of his kind

unlike those lovely birds

unlike every other animals

who wandered in pairs around

till it was dark all around him.

He wished there be someone

also with him of his kind

as beautiful and tender for him.

Tears rolled down his cheeks.
Adam soulfully prayed for Eve.

Prose

2009-05-02T13:45:00.002+05:30

While trying to uproot my sorrows
dibbling with a pen I uprooted my heart.

Siping a cup of tea you exclaimed,
' Wow! What an art! '

Awkward moments

2009-05-02T13:40:00.002+05:30

I forgot you and also what I actually told
I felt uneasy as you went on saying'Behold!
a few words from you these are
I've kept them as my precious treasure
I've saved them from time's cruel seizure.'

Memories drizzled while eyes blurred.
I blushed in shame and felt awkward.
Searching your name in vain till last
which I lost somewhere in my past
'You are., You are..' I mused clearing dust

Point of no return

2009-05-02T09:03:00.005+05:30

Trillion, billion, million,
seconds, minutes and hours
thousands of days and weeks
hundreds of months, many years
and a few decades melted
to form tiny sands of time
numerous grits, concretes
peebles and stones
and a few bed of rocks
as they cooled down and petrified
on which I walked, ran, halted
completing my stipulated journey
fulfilling the desire of Someone
whom I never saw, never came across
but only heared my companions saying
there He was always above us
busy keeping accounts of our every moves
while always I reached a place
where it was engraved on rocks
' The point of no return' I saw
as I moved from farther to the farthest
knowing by then I was travelling
on an eternal sphere of time!

I Wish I be a Phoenix

2009-05-02T09:00:00.006+05:30

I lay scattered before time helplessly
Which I see slipping away very slowly
from my unwilling hand gradually!

What should I call it? My inability?
Ignorance? Irresponsibility?
Weakness? Destiny?

Is that my failure to say my need?
Is that because I didn’t greed?
Is that because I didn’t plead?

Well, now I shout with my might
IF what I didn't do was alone right
I'll do them now to give a strong fight.

Basic confusion

2009-05-02T08:51:00.007+05:30

Do basics change every year?
Every month week or day
Every hour, minute or second?

Do they change as I cross
The boundary of a land
Or boundary of age?

Now a day I often confuse
If basics are all alterable!
befitting the size of users!

I often ask myself if
My basics are different than yours!
If I need to replenish my old sets!

Often I also think, keep thinking
If I should fight for my basics
Or give them up for yours.

Because I’m but compelled
very hard for changing my sets,
To sustain, to breath freely!

Now I nearly agree with you
Almost on every issue that
They are not ever the same for all.

Basics are often changed I see
Agreeing with I get changed I see
Drifting, floating, sinking my soul I see.

The Animal I fear most

2009-04-30T15:05:00.023+05:30

Which animal do I fear most if you ask me to name

I’ll surely say it’s the race human (though I’ll feel a little shame)

They are the cruelest beasts I’ve ever seen, heard and known

(I’m afraid you’re getting angry with me and you surely frown.)

.But if you allow me to tell and to justify what makes me to think

Such awkward thought I might try to tell you all about the link.

Look, at the creatures that you have considered to be very cruel

Are all extinguished from the earth as the human started to dwell

Wherever they lived, on earth or in very deep inside the sea

The race human surely killed them not listening to their plea.

They could not save themselves by their might in an unequal fight

With the race human and have lost their inhabitation and right

To live on earth as the God’s creation with the boon of life

The race human have made them to perish using only a knife!

What I fear most of human race is it’s very sharp brain that kills

Not only who belong to its enemies but also whomever it feels

Not in accordance with its wish or not useful to meet its lust

For just anything it may desire or not in match with it’s thirst.

Whatever they are they’ll have to perish be it an animal or plant

The race human as if has conquered the right to decide and grant

The bliss of life to which it feels will act for its selfish interest

And ensure it’s shameless regime on earth and to kill the rest!

Lost

2009-04-30T14:46:00.020+05:30

I’m lost in a hollow between my yesterday and today

This is a unique place to live in free from acquaintance

Between you and me there rests a thin layer of distance

through which only I can see you and never you can.

From my unique abode I don’t only see your faces but

through my million times magnified vision I can measure

your every momentary move. What you perceive and decide

how you think and act is my friend, all seen escaping nothing.

From the confinement of time I have nothing to offer you or take

But silently observing the process of living, changing and aging

having no feeling of aches in heart or patches in mind in a state

of absolute irrelevance and solitude I’m to pretend I’m lost.

Plant a plant

2009-04-29T12:33:00.028+05:30

I said 'Plant a plant'

You said 'Plant a plant'

We said 'Plant a plant'

He said 'Plant a plant'

She said 'Plant a plant'

They said 'Plant a plant'

I didn't plant a plant

You didn't plant a plant

We didn't plant a plant

He didn't plant a plant

She didn't plant a plant

They didn't plant a plant.

I say 'Plant a plant'

You say 'Plant a plant'

We say 'Plant a plant'

He says 'Plant a plant'

She says 'Plant a plant'

They say 'Plant a plant'.

I don't plant a plant

You don't plant a plant

We don't plant a plant

He doesn't plant a plant

She doesn't plant a plant

They don't plant a plant.

Shal I plant a plant?

Will You plant a plant?

Will We plant a plant?

Will He plant a plant?

Will She plant a plant?

Will They plant a plant?

WHO WILL PLANT A PLANT ?

Statistically I'll remain alive.

2009-04-29T12:17:00.013+05:30

Statistically I will continue to live surely untill

an unknown unforeseen assassin shall kill

me too in a crowd completely not aware

why I will be killed, when I will be and where.

.
My assassin, a man, woman or a lovely teen

my fateshall also not know whom he'll or she'll assassinate

Blind I surely will remain of any reason why shall I die.

Blind he'll or she'll also remain whom he or she kills, Why?

.
My statistical death may simply arrive as a probability to die

when I'll that simply be living my life untill a sudden deep sigh

hue and cry and screams around me'll break the rhythm of life

and fill the serene sky with aweful unknown irregular strife.

.
But statistically I will not die almost all the time and I will survive

to say 'I surely decline to fear you my death' and I'll surely live my life.'

My dear assassin blind, unkind, know it from me for now and ever

I don't fear at all that you'll come to rob me of my life and I will never.'

Love and compassion

2009-04-29T11:53:00.009+05:30

I wished you to come

Very ardently I wished

You to come my love

As pure, adoring, doting

wholesome, untainted

unconditional Love.

But you came in sham of pity

Compassion and sympathy

I refused to accept you My Love.

How could I? Tell me

how could Iaccept you, tell!

You too didn’t shy

To leave me alone

forlorn in my grave.

You too did’nt look

back to see if it was

A Paradise or Hell!

Stairs

2009-04-29T10:58:00.009+05:30

Oops!

Stairs.

Stairs up

Stairs down

Stairs beside.

Lefts and rights.

At the crossing I’m.

Which way to take?

Where to go from here?

Leaving you aside, I ask myself.

Where should I go?What to wish?

Why so lonely do I find myself?

Why do I feel myself being forlorn?

Is it somewhere I wished to come?

Is it somewhere you wished me to go?

From you afar did you wish to send me here?

Weren’t you happy with me? Wasn’t it I with you?

Why din’t you stop me coming? Didn’t I listen to you?

Wherever I see I find only me! Reflecting my images, rest unknown!

Why did you send me so far from you where from I can’t even see your face?

Now I fear going farther away from here. Let me come down to my amorous earth.

Please, don’t say no. I’m so tired of climbing stairs. Let me come down to the warmth of our hut.Let me live with you the rest of our moments not much long we must know of this life.Lets do share our joy and sorrow. Lets again together enjoy a popular country song or lets together,

together we share our moments of prayer. Let us feel the air together at our yard, at our barn.Let us together a new dream we yarn.Let us, Let us, Let us,whatever we do,we do it together.Let us together we forget the nightmare of remaining apart.

Sword

2009-04-29T10:52:00.010+05:30

I have got my weapon so now I do not fear

to live a Life of no value but an ocean of tear.

I don't fear though left in squall all alone to sail

I don't tear for traveling alone life's uncertain trail.

If you ask me and surely you'll I'll tell it all

how did I come across that great fear of fall.

how could it be all possible feeling no fear at all

I'll tell you how it all happened just as a miracle.

The night before I had trouble having a sound sleep

I took a pen and wrote down all suffering I had deep.

Pain, sorrows and all those words I didn't say till date

came around, sat on paper and I could see my fate.

There from they looked at me, laughed at me and shame

I felt a lot as they talked it was all just a pretty game

what they called of Life it was so common to every soul

with that paper I made a sword and made living my goal.

Changing of direction

2009-04-29T10:48:00.008+05:30

Willing or unwilling I had to change it often.

Towards you or just opposit in direction I had to move.

Life has been for me only changing of direction.

Gladly or sadly I had to accept it often

to east, to west, to north and back to east

Life has been for me only changing of direction.

Saying it or by not saying, what you had told me often

I had to ignore, overlook and move in rytham with destiny

Life has been for me only changing of direction.

Agreeing or disagreeing you had to live with or leave me alone

but from east to west, west to north, back to east and far east

Life has been for me only changing of direction.

For a beautiful face
