A thick slick

In an avenged park
somebody's love is floating
on an isolated pond.
The lovers at the beginning
very soft hearted like butterflies.
Is this the nature who becomes
venomous Hornets
and abandon the love astray?

Who Plucked This Man-Bird's Discoloured Feathers?

Salivate & cries!
Tetanus,
Hysterics,
hotchpotch & this hopeless bird
caged on the top?
Pejudical to see the faraway Horizon
and no tower of strength?

to my poet friend Pranab!

A daughter writes to her father who's in the battlefield!

Dad! Take care of yourself
And others too.
Perhaps your enemy's daughter
Has pigtails like me
And she too goes to school?
Better come back home Dad!
I learn fast and do a nursing job.
Dad! Then you can rest.

The Error of seeing things as permanent

The butterflies where were they flown?
And who erased the rainbow?
Lullabies no more and the broken cradle lies aside.
It's a broken promise
You said that you will be back soon, but Mother where are you now?

The forbidden tree grows in serpentine road

It's almost soggy.
Hey! Novice you skid away
And take care my friend.
Ex-Adam had the skill
Though it's a sin.
Anyway who leaves a fruitful tree
without trespassing if it's tasty?

* To my poet friend Duncan.

Her tempting perfume for a platonic love

The old forbidden citadel area; A persona scares to touch the electrified fence.
And the double chin emigrant who rechecks the meaning of 'Love & endanger' in his new encyclopaedia.

* To my poet friend Duncan

Easter

Once my English teacher explained in the literature class,
'A spring festival commemorating Christ's resurrection.'
I dreamed the next door baker bakes Easter buns
And all of a sudden Judas jumped to the oven.

An English Rose

I thought that you do not bear thorns
But it's sharper than other roses.
An immigrant butterfly's heart is delicate
And please do not hurt the visitor.

*To my poet friends Tai chi Italy, Denis, Duncan and Roy.

Next door cat!

I would like to write something
about my next door talking-eyes widow's Siamese cat
But the mouse of my computer cries;
'O no Sir! I won't be here anymore
and probably your beloved too? '

Eyewitness

Face cloth in one hand
and with the other
eyeliner goes to her
magical eyes.
In front of a mirror
she saw her facet
and the faceless.
It's a confusion
and an eye-opener.
She has witnessed
my soul in the mirror.
