The Four Letter Word



The shining bright sphere of light over there,

a four letter word spells out nine letter happiness for me.

A wish hanging right there,

a joy promises to come back to me.

The moonlight caresse me every night,

whispers to me wat I love to hear;

even the darkest of nights has the potential of beauty.

Before the moonlight escapes, I just bask in the calm solitude suspended in the air.

I embrace the uncertainity of the day once again I am free.

Spin It

                                                                     Spin spin spin I spin my web.. Snip snip snip I snip every old thread.. You spin I spin that is all we do. I am hanging where you once hung, This patch is mine now, now I sew. You snipped my mesh one day and craft your own wall. I am a spinner and you are one No sins, we merely cushion our fall. Why shall I remain trapped in my world and you in yours. Let us spin a web together  and trap everyone in ours. Why not bring all under one roof neither yours, nor mine, ally. Under one sky, as the earth continues to spin Let us spin for everyone, a whole new sky.

Abandoned: End of a beginning?

Innumerable questions pound the walls of our mind. Words in our poem no longer rhyme. Why no one wants to take us home or considers us as their own? Why no one lends a loving hand and lets us suffer on the barren land? We seek neither a roof, nor a stack of grain  Merely the sunshine of care in the season of rain. As a desperate knock interrupts my thoughts, I roll down the glass to be greeted by imploring eyes of a poor child. My heart goes out to her but I cannot help wondering if she has chosen this path out of need or has been forced to do so. I hand her a penny and drive away as the signal turns green. We can reflect upon the condition of the underprivileged children clad in rags or pass our judgement about the misfortune but is that what we call a solution? Gaiety of the childhood has wandered off as the bereaved are left behind to search for remnants on the crowded streets. I had once come across a poor child who was hurrying off from one vehicle to t

My Song

Image
Amidst the music of the days I was lost as a song And Life seemed to be awfully long Dancing to the tunes of the globe Thought I was being right always wrong And Life seemed to be awfully long Lost as a song.. Seeking shelter from the rain I missed the rainbow Closed the doors as joyous raindrops came knocking upto me The saplings climbed up on the staircase of the blue sky But the ladder of success was all that I could see On the rocky road I could have walked a mile In this bargain my friends I lost my smile In the music of life lost as a song Life seems to be awfully long.. In my canvas I painted myself black and white Day goes by and so does the night The sunlight blinds me now I can no longer see My shadow no longer walks with me Every night is a nightmare of mornings to come The clock ticks to remind me to be on the run In the music of life I want to sing my own song Something in me seems to be awfully wrong.. As I learn to dance to my tune Where the music be my own Let me fal
