This Sunday

While you were away,
sitting in the balcony of our study
soaked in the music, I watched
the evening turn into night

How magnificent are the colors
the brilliant orange of sunset
blue hour of twilight and dusk
melting into darkness of  night

With wet September air
gently stroking my feet
I slept, lost in the beauty
of the moonless starry night

Silently with dawn came the rain,
and along came your memories
just like this magical monsoon
bringing freshly brewed happiness.

A new haven

Like a restless traveller, I seek a new journey

Need to move on, having enjoyed the destination

Clueless, I drive, in silence, scared of hollowness

Will I ever find a new haven, a new ambition?

Wishing a happier year!

Once again, like every year
The numbers changed at midnight.
In a second a year was left behind,
with cognizance of introspection
we celebrate,sing, dance, drink.
Wishing new year to be a celeberation,
like or unlike the old one.

Celeberations, always confuse me,
how do I celeberate?
with wine, song or smoke?
Induced happiness is tempory,
I complain, happiness must stay,
forever, uninduced and uninturupted,
it is just a matter of finding the way!

Well, on this note, let us begun
another round around the sun,
And this year let us resolute
to experience happiness, uninduced
From within, lasting for ever.
Wishing everyone a happier year.

A Mauritian Holiday

 

Unusual  couples, brought together

Some by choice but all by destiny,

In the shared seclusion of Mauritian island,

Breaking the ice, bonding for life.

The New Normal

Let stories be told and gossips unfold,
but love should not be disturbed,
together we'll reach for singularity,
till it becomes our new normal.

Sleepless Nights

A dozen dawns of sleepless nights,
Unrefreshed, but I still  feel  alright,
Budding dream that kept me alive
I'll not sleep till I make it realize.




* Met an Old-young lady this morning at the breakfast in Hotel Hilton. Rockaway, NJ. We got talking, she told about a project that she is working on apart from her day job at a leading chemical company...how hard she working to make it a success.

Saturday morning

Unusual silence of Saturday morning,

Wind chimes and  musical monsoon,

Shabby sheets and lazy lovers,

Peace within and peace outside.
