Disquiet thoughts knock
the door to temptation lures
tangled emotions
agonizing dilemma
to stray or to steer away.
Disquiet thoughts knock
the door to temptation lures
tangled emotions
agonizing dilemma
to stray or to steer away.
an organic trail
the primordial heartbeat
reconnect to roots
its time we pledge to restore
nature’s lost green tiara
Living cadaver
a decadent world shrivels
an eerie portend
stars convulse in spiral ire
stygian skies bemoan life
Childhood innocence
tiny delights define joy
mindful behavior
transition to adulthood
mind full, blinkered existence!
Tanka inspired by Chris’s poem, Return to innocence
vagaries of time
majestic resplendence wanes
arched shadows eclipsed
seals the manor’s destiny
brings it under the hammer
Pandemic days ebb
pirouetting flames of diya*
brightens festive mood
vibrant emotions dazzle
heralds celebration time
The dark shadows of the virus seem to drift away, as the winds of normalcy brings in a much-needed reprieve. With all things opening up and life returning to pre covid times, we pray for a better tomorrow. Hoping the sparkling conversations and sounds of laughter replace the din and smog of the crackers. Let’s illuminate our earth with the dazzle of love and peace.
Happy Diwali to all !

Surreal magic
esoteric energy
arcane miracle
epiphanic afterglow
the birth of divinity

Protocol vaccine
the rushed clinical trials
crossroad dilemma
confusing anomalies
uncertain mind-set prevails
Noxious intent brews
rampant callous endeavors
toxic news flare up
flames of greed engulf mankind
the world burns, inhales vile ash.
lost intimacy
relationship turns turbid
oppressive control
fists scar her innate psyche
succumbs to insanity
