Each tint & shade speaks for itselfLightness & Darkness alters what the color tells.So a few words on the hues & their impels. Red is a color of energy & passion.Pink denotes love & compassion.Marroon shows power & resolution.

The drizzle
Pitter patter on the glass,Can’t I laze away in the grass?Sirimiri brings along sweet misty air,Love the way dew drops adorn my hair.The light drizzle induce lots of joy,Unlike the heavy rains which sometimes annoy.I walk in solitude as the sky goes rimjhim,The tranquility feels like being in a dream. Writing prompt was Sirimiri (spanish) […]
::Stuff I can’t depart from::
Before my soul leaves my cadaver,Few precious stuff I want to gather, And take with me my dear treasure,To soothe the pain, to get pleasure. The enchanting laughter of my child,The silent noise of the dangerous wild,The inspiring words by my mother,The affection shared with my father,The echoing applause after my show.The varied emotions I […]
::My Lunar Obsession::
Beauty & Serenity in every form of thee,I get very thrilled whenever thou I see. Either waning or waxing, you rotate with glee,Bringing tides & ebbs effortlessly in the sea. Waxing crescent provides hope even if new moon is gloomy,First quarter & Waxing Gibbous are filled with energy. Full moon is attainment & hence pretty […]
My favorite things
Prattle & laughter that echo the gathering,Heartfelt dancing and melody filled singing,Listening to grandma’s wonderful stories of kings,These are the few of my favorite things. Rom-coms & mysteries on television screen,Reading a book lying in the luscious green,Eating to heart’s content subs & chicken wings,These are the few of my favorite things. Dark or light […]
Beauty’s Brilliance
Swiftly sweeping her toes,Her humble hat harmonizing her head,Showing sweet smile she pose,With whistles & waves we applaud,Seemingly spellbound by her show.Bewitching beauty baffles us by her brilliance.
Confidence
She gives me a glance,A glance that changes my stance.My stance was once full of confidence,Confidence that I could rule the world. My world now bows down at her feet.Her feet smoothly glides as she comes & greet,Greet I cannot at all, when I see her.Her beautiful face makes me nervous & blabber.
::A poem on 21st century mindset::
Digitalization is the need of hour.Computers occupy immense power.We don’t savor our lives any more.It’s only technology that we devour. Love & kindness have lost their worth.Life is but a road to death from birth.We don’t even try to gel together,Are we the brightest creature on earth?
Love Lost
Jane walked through the gallery smelling like a leftover tragedy and went to her grand mother’s room. She knelt on the floor and lifted the lid of a glass jar kept in the corner. Letters tied with jute threads, dried roses and old photographs filled the jar to the brim. Some colourful handmade greeting […]
A Nursery Rhyme
Eat that apple,Eat that grape,Eat that banana& everything else in your plate. Eat your vegetable,Eat your rice,Eat your bread& everything else in your plate. Eat to get strong & healthy,Eat to gain proper weight,Not all kids get enough food,So eat everything in your plate. Why? ’cause that was the theme for the day in writing […]
Random thoughts about ‘Love’
Love is a beautiful feeling when you fall in it,Until the moment you get drowned in it hopelessly. Raindrops on the windshield takes my heart to places I wish I could wipe off from my mind.Surely, one sided love is a feeling one can only sow but never harvest. ::Unrequited Love::One-sided Love.Accepting it gracefully.But, Is […]
::Thought for the day::
Dear Diary, Writing to you about today,Today was a sunday,Usually it is a fun day. Either trekking on hills away,Or Sitting by the Sea on clay,Is how I spend my day. But with Covid, Life has taken a U turn.All our days are getting troublesome.Work from home is twenty-four by seven. No work life balance […]
Sijo : The conversation
The twilight rays ask the Sun why he leaves them everyday,To change their mood from yellow to orange & then to grey?It is only to return at dawn and bring a new hope he would say. The sijo is a traditional Korean style of poetry written in just 3 lines. The first line presents a […]
::You are now my Past::
My handsome Shravan,As you sit next to me,Humming the sad song inYour beautiful voice,The lyrics though unsaid,Makes me wonder whetherTime could stop standstill,The moment extend indefinitely,Earth cease to rotate &We are not required to depart. But Destiny is whatBrought us togetherAnd it will be the reasonWe need to go away.To not meet again butTo keep […]
Travelogue Poem
During British rule, Cape Comorin was the name of this place,Today it’s name means an unmarried lass, It is the southern most tip of the Indian sub continent.The calmness and beauty are here quite dominant. At the colourful confluence of two seas & an ocean lies Kanyakumari,The 133 feet Thiruvallar Statue stands tall in the […]
::Slowly slides the sparkling stream::
As the water gushes down the river stream,The little drops in the sunlight glitter and gleam. Yesterday’s mighty glacier might turn tomorrow into steam,Yet nothing stops the drops from achieving their dream. They cut rocks and navigate forest just by virtue of being a team,Frolicking, enjoying on the way, they abide by ‘Carpe Diem.’ Their […]
Forgive & Forget
Forgiving isn’t something you do for others,It is a gift of mental peace for your own sake.They might have behaved most cruely,But why remain tormented & cause an internal outbreak? The first step is to accept thatmistakes have been made,Though you aren’t the reason,Explanation should be arrayed. Arguments should be pacifying,Yelling shouldn’t get below grade.If […]
Clear, Creative, Cumulus clouds!
Growing up, always enjoying the vast sky,I believed I was a Selenophile,But when I noticed those cute puffy masses,My thoughts became worthwhile. Tiny, Giant, Light, Dark, Near, Far, Dense or Clear,Clouds have intrigued me all round the year.The Sun & Moon are at a distance into space,But clouds are something I can chase. Their mood […]
Someplace, Someday !!!
Every time a difficulty arrives,I feel like running away.The slightest sign of trouble,& my confidence starts to sway. If I hadn’t had met you ever,My life would have been astray,To love you & be with you,Is the only thing I pray. With your hand intertwined in mine,Life would be enjoyable and gay,Far from the wordly […]
Dear Valentine,
My Love for you didn’t surface overnight,For you, I know it was love at first sight,But for me, you were my best friend, my confidant, my delight,And finally the tempest of feelings concluded that you are my Mr. Right. When your eyes speak, my heart skips a beat,Waking up beside you, makes my mornings sweet,Walking […]
Colour with highest frequency!
Purple, Amethyst, Orchid or Lavender,Which colour is it i often wonder?Arent there too many shades of Violet?Among which it is difficult to differentiate.Lavender oozes out beauty & femininity,Lilac symbolizes innocence & purity,Bright purple depicts pride & royalty,Light purple boosts our imagination & creativity.So, what does the color mean to me?Makes me hope for the best […]
The Lonely Ghost
Sitting at the rocky river bank all alone,She wondered how quickly time had flown, The dark moonless night couldn’t petrify her composed persona.She retraced the day which began her dilemma. She had to choose between punishing her killer or going to heaven.But she wasn’t yet able to uncover the culprit even after searching for years […]
Start Afresh !
From childhood to old age,When is life’s best stage? The purity of an infant which we can never guage.The hyperactivity of toddler could become ravage. A preteen oscillates between being docile and savage.Appearance and attraction chiefly takes over the teenage. Aspirations and dreams give a youngster courage,Failing to succeed can cause some rage. Adults have […]
Promise
Happy Promise day everyone. Frankly speaking I don’t believe in promises because I have experienced that though people have the full intention of keeping any promise they make, circumstances could make it tough or even impossible for them to execute it. You promised me a forever but if I am the reason holding you back […]
