Images crowded my mind
of blank faces, void of names
kept me awake, their presence linger
Like ghosts, they haunted me.

Were they my friends who thought of me?
Or antagonists who betrayed me
Or future amities who'll befriend me
Or just blank faces, no soul, nobody

Strange how their images keep coming back
In the wee of night they drift unexpectedly,
wish they can talk and tell me
the meaning of their lucidity.

We all have our shares of sacrifices
We all have our shares of happiness
We all have our shares of loneliness
We all have our shares of dumbness

We look at the stars and get awe at their brightness
We look at people and admire their successes
We look at each other at blank faces we stare
We look and see nothing, we sense no feeling

We fly with our spirit and scale the sky
Then dive in the seabed to unknown we landed
Down on our knees we crawl in darkness
Searching for beacon on the way to horizon.

Up and down, we climb like a lift
Swirl and whirl, we turn like a wheel
To and fro, like a boomerang we go
In a needle, sometimes we go through.

Like the wind, our dreams fly high
Like the shadow, our feats haunt us
Like the thread, we lose our end
Like an ember, we mellow, we flicker.

Rainbow color, our life is a hue
Bright and windy, can be like weather too
Calm and serene, down in a river we flow
Bumpy and rocky, at times, but still we go.

There’s no stopping, life’s phase continues
As frequent as moon changes its faces too
Like the ebbing and rising of tide life curve flows
For dear life we grapple, we hang on to.

_ We all have our twists
We all have our turns
We all have our bends
We live with minuet.

We sway with the tempo
We jive with the beat
We hum with the music
We live with symphony.
 
We wallow in water
We sniff in a cliff
We drown in ecstasy
We live with drift.

_  New Year…..Cheers!

The long wait is over
New Year is here
Ushering us to our voyage
To winding and tricky road
Of a rainbow-filled horizon.

Bright lights and fireworks
Fill the dark skies and crannies
Awesome sights to see
Mesmerizing, dreamy;
Elating everybody.

For every burst of firework
And the deafening sound it carries
I wish they drive the miseries
That huddled us throughout the year
And flicker down with them totally.

This New Year I wish for every one
To have good health and prosperity
To have joyful life and serenity
At peace with self and  everybody
And owes no one animosity.

Let’s cheers for good health, productivity
For amity and camaraderie
For lasting peace and serenity
And joyful life for everybody!
Happy New Year everyone!

_ The only time of year
When joy fills the air
smiles  aplenty
Everybody is happy.

Like songs of birds
the Christmas carols
are heard unceasingly
lilting  and cheerfully.

Twinkling lights
and lace of red
wreath of green
adorn the windows.

Smells of cone
and cinnamon
are seeping through
turn nostrils blue.

This Christmas time
let’s all have fun
rejoice and cheer
the season’s  glam

And hope that may its spirit
of joy lingers
elate the weary
deduce the dreary.

A joyous Christmas and blessed New Year to everyone!one!

_ Behind every smile is pain
Behind every dream is failure
Behind every wish is hope
For life to live is to behold.

For every laughter,  fear
For every leap a jolt
For every nod a sorrow
Belief though strong is hollow.

Reality blinds like sunshine
Pretension brings the fun
Acceptance seals tomorrow
The life you make your borough.

Thank you for the wisdom
You’ve shared with me in the short time
And the moments we’ve spent
talking in the wee of time.

You were right when you've told me
I’m taking things seriously
Maybe you’ll know why it was so
Had you’ve known the real me.

I believe it is right
That I should savor, each sweet moment
For in a wink it will be over
The enthusiasm soon is gone too.

Restraining feeling is not easy
It is draining, emotionally
Physically it is dreary
Mentally It is heavy.

I have been dreaming of spontaneity
Doing things freely
But then my conscience dwells on me
Stopping me to act boldly.

I wish we have met
On the most opportune time
When I can be like you can be
Decisive, free and trusty.

Bitter sap cascades freely
on the windows of her soul
as sleet of ice starts to prick
her swollen heart,
crumbling and deplete

struggling and gasping
trying to hold on
from  unseen Hands
she clings on
sliding, she grapples
for dear life to move on

a blinding road, she treks
to horizon, unknown
moves with the wind
flies like the birds
lives on the grace
the natures’ borne.
