Stillness of night,
The world sleeps, its quiet:
Just my soul stirring.

Ball of four ply wool
Entangled on marble floor;
Hand knits out of vogue.

At dawn in an earthen pot;
By dusk, smile wiped off...

River in spate, hopes
Submerged, turbulent current;
Floodgates are open…

Spring cleaning one noon,
In the attic, wipe the dust
Off, wedding album.

Festival of lights;
Child sells crackers to adults,
No sparkle in eyes…

A patch of green fields-
A flock of egrets flutters:
Look in disbelief…

Am four and a half
She said with pride in eyes.
You? I just forgot, dear...

Proud to be self made,
An egotist's tall claim... at work
Invisible hands.

Cancer takes its toll
Unfazed- a glimpse in her soul…
Bald and beautiful.
