SIGHS

  
SIGHS

   Once on a silent frozen December dawn
Like a chill naughty breeze on hill-top
He pushed open window of my heart
   And stealed into my soul and stayed.
With lovely passions he embalmed
Dreams and desires of my youth.
I swayed on higher boughs of ecstasy
And danced in trance of his charm.
When I woke up  from the spell of  charm
That swathed and filled in me for a while
I found him fading into thickets  of hills afar
Leaving me in the bed of moody lassitude
Seeking  secrets of serene virgin wilderness
And I stared unconvinced as if in a dream.
On Eastern tree-tops, morning sun peeped out
From his golden cradle rocked by gentle wind,
Listening to twitter of sparrows hunting honey.
 When his thousand naughty hands pulled off
The heavy blanket of dream from my eyes
And picked up me  from downy warm bed,
Lazy sleep walked out unwilling to depart.
Observing his royal ride forward through
The shining blue carpet spread in the sky,
I wondered at his growth as a haughty prince
Who shower blazing fire on earth at noon.
                                                      O fluffy cloud, we relaxed under the shade
                                                   Of your wings, while you go escort to him.                          
When wheels off ,  his princely chariot hit
 At   western fortress  wall of  horizon,
And royal blood  stains vermillion the sea ,
O weary cloud, being a silent witness of all,
Did you weep a little  to wet the sea shore?
When you pulled  the black veil of night over
         I felt at my courtyard your hot sighs on lost hues
 I too ferried back to memories of my lost charmer
With a garland of past dreams and sighs!!

WOUNDS

WOUNDS Wounds are bleeding ceaselessly Within a pensive, passive soul Unusual shades of pains it holds Permeated all from human ways Affection holds affective aches Compassion holds dear one’s aches Frustrations have fervid pains Defamations have darting pains Vexations have simmering throes Protests have many struggling throes Attachments have growing grieves Detachments have losing grieves Departure has lone agonies Desolation has deep agonies Loss of love and league of love All are bleeding wounds of soul

LOVE

LOVE In the garret of my heart I heard love chirping The intoxicant fragrance Of soil soaked in summer rain Makes me a maudlin of love Like the songs of a nightingale Wave in through breeze In moonlit shades of spring O Krishna, from your ambrosial flute, Incessant notes of love Ignites my humble soul.

MY ANCESTRAL HOME

MY ANCESTRAL HOME In a village of virtues and veracity Erect stands my ancestral home Duty and dedication join hands In that goodness' courtyard Like an ever-shining lamp, my mother Spreads moonshine of love, on us With great message of simple life, My father adds her strength and shade.

REUNION

REUNION Flowing forward in river time An inevitable confluence I reached Where pertinent passions torrented Till I faint in the whirlpool My soul found tossed in waving flood To roll and twirl like a fallen leaf Like offscourings thrown after squeezing juice I went on destined journey along I met you once on a weary ride Who tried to put out fire in my heart While walking with my thoughts and pains You perched and nested on my dreams Like moonlight softly embrace earth Your loving smiles spilled over me O Krishna, in your soothing solace As a boon for many births I regained my lost soul

I WISH I WERE

I WISH I WERE.. I wish I were a peepul tree Clad in beautiful little leaves Listening to ecstatic ripples That flows out through your flute Vibrate in acme of rapture Every moment in life. I wish I were a little calf With you in the wilderness Listening to warbling cuckoos Praising beauty of blooms. I wish I were a jasmine In the garland on your bosom To forget myself in bliss Of kissing you for ever. I wish I were Radhika Leaned upon your bosom With dreamy half- closed eyes As a token of eternal love.

THE BEAUTY BLOOMED IN MY GARDEN

THE BEAUTY BLOOMED IN MY GARDEN O lovely lovely blosome I love you love you so much So nice of you to bloom in The lawn of my lone garden O lovely lovely red rose I love you so much because, Your reddish petals hold on My blood and heart together I feel my intense passions In your tempting fragrance Your graceful smile permeates My youthful vigour and love Which I hold for ever in heart To save and serve this world I live O lovely lovely blossom I have much anxiety too How should I safeguard all your joy Unhurt from all devils hidden I fear cruel hungry worms Crawl up to eat your soft petals I fear naughty boys and friends Rush in to pluck you to throw and crush I fear devotees innocent enough Who snatch you for daily offerings Nay, nay never I let them hurt Or own , or throw you heartlessly I will fix my eyes on watch To fence and guard u till you wither Though you fade off in Lord’s chariot Your charm will not fade from my heart.
