Song of the Earth

My spirit’s faint, of joy and beauty starved,

Of late, this grieving heart has known but gloom,

So, prayers I’ll say on ancient Anglezarke,

And dance with Gaia, to a brighter tune,

Where soars my soul, between earth sea and sky:

Fear’s put to flight, in nature is true strength.

A lark’s song celebrates up there on high

The beauty of our vast horizon’s length,

The grandeur o...

2020 the trailer of 2021

For the people, they both were so troublesome 

Had so many deaths and made the people stressed 

Hospitals had the shortage of beds,

Thus made the people realise the value of nature's shed

All were so scared,

but  some irresponsible and negligence, making others tensed 

by roaming here and there 

When the oxygen is so rare,

All other countries tak...

Just blame it on the weather

Even though the rain is pretty

Blame it on the weather

I have no better reason

So I'll blame it on the clouds

I wanna cry

Cause it’s dark in the sky

Thats why I'm tired

That's why I'm lost

It's because of the rain clouds

Seasonal Hate

You endure a tremendous amount of hate, 

Berating your presence as soon as you wake.

 

Their words echo off buildings, 

As the tempo of people gather in agreement. 

 

White smoke cloaks their bodies,

Fuming like chain smokers in harmony.

 

The crunching of their feet fleeting,  

Scurrying away to catch the heat of the bus,

Dirtying up the soft blanket you’ve given ...

Hot Spring

the plumes of a caldera,
and the dark clouds,
sun overshadowed,
at its core a scalding heat turned colder
because of similarities
shared this simile
for the changing of seasons, anew
an unforgiven embrace

Table Manners

he wouldn’t let us leave
without paying,
for our meal

had to-go

then bantered with them
and, you ordered to make him take it back

the whole ordeal was a real headache,
I could feel tension in the temple,
and had to meditate, to
clear my head and relieve the stress

I wanted to post a pic of my meal,
but it was almost traumatic

Maybe, I’m just being over dramatic?

Melancholics of the monsoon

Melancholic of the monsoon

 

Sluggish mornings,

Smell of fungus

in my slippery doorsteps,

Elongated bedtimes,

Slacking routines,

Hearing nothing ;but symphonies,

4 walls, headphones as my roomies,

Safeguarding books

And Reading them to cats 

To which they nods,

But silence alone growls.

Instant noodles,

And concurrent doodles;

Fills stomach and minds.

Renew

The trees begin to wilt and fade;

Another year is on the fall.

Though autumn can defy the odds,

The winter’s cold is bound to call.

 

The daytime’s relegated role

Is limited to minor parts;

Discarded leaves drift down to earth

In patterns of the purest arts.

 

In nights replete with cloudless chill,

We shiver at the crisp-cut moon;

Mother Nature Appears To Be A Saint.

Autumn turned into the red October.

It made a fire out of colorful leaves.

It wasn't cold but turned into amber.

In rains and winds, it only believes.

 

 

In October Autumn has become just crazy.

In October Autumn has become a bit lazy.

Walking sadly, weeping with a lot of tears,

Hiding carefully its reddish face and fears.

Fog of War

smoking barrels
in talks —about the past
around the campfire

you could cut the tension with a knife

the only thing needed is a good sense of humor

And,
…try not to lose your self along the way

the buddy system
marching—
side by side
do you trust that man with your life?
willing to take a bullet for them?
behind every great man is a great woman…

My Way

A yellow leaf broke away from the tree. 

He thought he could live now free.

But it happened a quite different way,

Without a trunk, he could helplessly lay.

 

Laying lonely far from the trunk

He was feeling a little bit drunk.

Even though the others were around,

His happiness was not found.


 

I  wandered on the fallen leaves in the forest,

And the weather looked ...

The Autumn And The Rain

Wearing a gray raincoat, with an unsteady walk,

The rain was so sad and didn't want to talk.

He remembered those sweet and beautiful days

When the butterflies flew among the warm bays.

 

 

He remembered a nightingale singing a song

And it looked as if nothing was wrong.

Now autumn melancholy and sadness

Replaced the joy of summer happiness.

: The Barren Tree :

It grew in the wilds, a sentinel growing tall,

A mighty yogi in presence, embracing it all!

Branches reaching out, to the skies in a plea,

Seeking for the strength - to live it's destiny!

 

Its ancient bark, a wrinkled, weathered hide,

Tells a tale of the time's, swiftly flowing tide.

Inexorably which has grabbed, life in a churn,

On and onwards to - the lands of no return!

Now, already remote

The rolling of the years

They’re already afloat

Your past self

Already a ghost

You begin to grieve your previous skins

Wonder why you had to forget and kill

Old personalities just to multiply new

So, you cling on to specific moments
