Pigeon on the ledge,
Starved, walks away from seeds; needs
Hugs, love therapy.

Flushed with success
looked back to share the moment-
why is there emptiness...

Nursing a fracture
On bed, leg stretched out in cast;
Friends smile and sign...

Deep coral flowers
Of Exhora in clumps, stun, warm;
smog smug, shrugs at dawn.

Black clouds of smoke rise
Escaping out of steel pipes;
Seek the blue of sky…

Moon less night shivers,
Winter still some weeks away;
Rockets pierce quiet…

If your fridge be stocked
With vegetables and fruits,
Taxman comes and knocks...

One sweltering day,
Wind howls, trees fall; it rains
White pellets- Hail, storm!

An awkward moment- Senryo! ! ! ! ! ! !

A plush hotel room,
King size bed; bell boy smiles, says:
Enjoy your stay, Mam.

Needs - Hiaku

Plants have needs-
Love, care, food or else just wilt,
Unheard, they too grieve.
