The lea watches with fear
her once verdant complexion,
loses sheen.
dark lines mar her with scars of grey
puffy eyes let out silent tears
moistening the dwindling flowers,
their fragrance buried within its bosom
masked by man’s atrocities

moistening the dwindling flowers,
their fragrance buried within its bosom

Waiting at the threshold in anticipation,
as the final page of the calendar turns,
shadows of the year slowly fade,
to be blanketed under the duvet of the setting sun.
We reflect on the year gone by,
ready to usher in the new year.
As the midnight bells ring, we pray for,
A new beginning,
filled with hope and happiness
for a better tomorrow!
May the year 2023 bring in all things good for you and your family.
Happy New Year to all !

Drawing concentric circles, with egoistic radius
Animosity brews under the illusion of happiness
Drifting relationship echoes a woeful reality
Caught in a hypnotic entrapment of life!

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.
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.
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!
Disquiet thoughts knock
the door to temptation lures
tangled emotions
agonizing dilemma
to stray or to steer away.
I am so happy to share that my poem “Nature’s Grandeur” has been published in Spillwords.
