☆ ~ Rooted Memories…  ~ ☆

☆

Sometime in the past, my life was grounded,

moored in the time and space, inexplicably

With  the dreams and memories unsolvable

like a conundrum, so much irreconcilably…

*

However  hard,  I  tried  to  unshackle it,

it got more and more entangled only

Tried  intensifying  the  efforts  but  in  vain 

The love  refused  to sojourn  lonely…

*

My will steadily forces me to move forward

but the heart  still resides in the yore

Enmeshed in time, gathered new experiences

as the zeitgeist  gave me offers,  galore

*

In  the  twisted  spiral  cloisters  of  time,

echoes of lost laughters, resonate endlessly

Silent  sighs, buried in the anguished secrets,

stepped forward, but got dragged back only…

  *

Testament is there, even when you’re absent,

love thrives, which was never there before

So what, if in the past, life was somberly stuck,

but  now lovelorn heart flourishes, galore..!

☆ ~ Lifeless Home…  ~ ☆

☆

Neither is there any happiness now,

    nor any  pain  left  to make me sad…

Have  developed  immunity  to every

    shade of agonising pain and anguish

*

A faceless hope is there on every face 

    Whomever you look at, is headless only

Everyone’s life is like a traveller’s journey

    someone in a hurry, some move leisurely

*

Never came to know that you’ve allowed

     him to go who was so intimately close 

Though he left empty handed but did take

    away  the  heart and soul of the house..!

☆ ~ Bemused Life…  ~ ☆

O’ Life! I gave you so much of my sweat and

blood but you’ve given me hardly anything 

If you want, you can search my blank hands

There is nothing  left  in these bare hands,

except for a few meaningless cursed lines…

Isn’t there anything left for me in your lap?

* 

I’ve seen so many human demigods here that

in front of whom the real God fades away

Oh God, why’ve you sent such a lacklusterless    

spring this time, with no greenery at all…

But my heart is too stubborn like a wilful child

Either it wants everything or nothing at all..!

☆ ~ Zestful Rain…  ~ ☆

☆

The long-awaited melodious

symphony  of  the

first rain has arrived with

its celestial petrichor…

*

Raindrops are greetings,

like nature’s confetti

Making environment lively

like sound of zither…

*

Dancing rain, makes you

alive with cozy vibes

Rainy days are inviting you

for the fun and frolic

*

Embrace the ever bewitching

beauty of  the first rain,

With its call for extra hugs

and  cuddles, galore…

*

Let  the  rain  wash  away

all the worries, with its

zestfull  humming drops

falling from the sky…

*

It makes me feel as if

an ecstatic cloud has

bumped into your anklet,

making it chime nimbly..!
