Are we guilty?

Eyes behold prismatic dreams
giggling through innocent childhood laughter
unadulterated!
Until, the sentinels of society
clip the creative artistry
tainting her beautiful life’s canvas
with strokes of insipid hues.
Peace At Dawn!
Dawn enters the threshold of the ebony sky,
nature’s nimble quill, pens scarlet verses across the yonder,
broody clouds pale under the dazzle of the sun.
As the empyrean canvas welcomes a new day, singing a lyrical ballad,
I surrender my pain to celestial heavens, bask under its benevolent grace.
The reflective solitude of the morn, envelopes me with abundant peace.
A Milestone!
Thoughts dress by my reflective moods
I paint the words with my emotional palette
a long journey, scripted through a variegated literary landscape
inspired by your writings enroute,
I celebrate a milestone of 1000 posts today.
WordPress congratulated me on my 1000th post today. Thank you, my WordPress family, for being with me and encouraging my work. Truly grateful for each of your likes and comments. Of late, I am guilty of not reading your posts regularly. I have joined work and keeps me busy. But I’ll definitely try to drop by whenever time permits. Thanks once again for being with me.
Happy Navratri to all my Indian friends!
The Dilemma!
Disquiet thoughts knock
the door to temptation lures
tangled emotions
agonizing dilemma
to stray or to steer away.
Poem Published!

Haiku – The Cactus!
The lonesome heart pines
lost in the barren landscape
stoic demeanor
Scorching cloudless sky
survives the parched desert heat
resilient soul
Spiked outer armor
smiles through the blistered needles
a vibrant blossom
Haiku – Eclectic Bouquet!
Litany of blooms
an aesthetic redolence
spirited ballet
Haiku – Scenic Beauty!
meandering path
gleamy rays kiss the valley
picturesque orbit
In Hope…
Life’s pedal moves on waiting for none,
O brother, the only sepia toned picture of us, is a treasure I cherish.
It conjures so many memories full of mirth.
The happy feet scampering across the neighbourhood, on hot summer noon
our buffoonery, inviting the ire of the old café owner.
With laughter echoing through the streets,
those growing up years defined unlimited felicity,
Until
miasmic bugle of war blew, bringing with it bloodshed
bombs bombarded destruction and mayhem.
My lachrymose deluge, drenched the rubble looking for you,
the throes of separation lacerating my soul.
After all these years, I still wait, in hope of your return…
