O Life O Death
At night,
in the mind
into the dark
Something is moving..
Incessantly...
In the heart
horrifying bark
searching matchstick
with palsied hand
frequently
O life O death
Why do you hunt?
Constantly...

Puzzle
I always stood in a situation
Felt better to close the eyes
and took a decision that puzzled
Am I satisfied or not it riddled
I always haunted..with the dew
tears of the night or pearls of the day
woos of the stars or dancing feathers gay

Motley of love
Love has many eyes
How one behold, relies
Basically on him,
A cradle like a lap,
A hug like a dream,
Whisper like supplication,
A tender touch like an angel,
Dew like tears,
The desire that smears,
O! Love! Colours of multitude,
Unknowingly, we are playing with

Jasmine
Jasmine toxicated and narrated
Requirement of democracy
Just wait and see......
Gentle breeze slowly touching
The heart and mind of lethion,
Now life is sprouting........
Before the dawn; into the dusky world
Pray and hope for the bright sun
Without the USA's bun.....

The Man
Here comes he! The fool with sword
He don't know the language of pen
He purchased the cock for the Eggs
Requested him, please bring the Hen/
Flood of Blood is my desire, shouted
‘Mightiest man of mightiest world'
When yelled his tongue sprouted
And suddenly into the den it hurled//

Fascination
I have always been fascinated by moon
It moved along with me wherever I go
To my surprise, I used to ask with my granny
She used to say "it's playing with you"
Then many a time, moon and me
At a wide space, Face to face
Talked in our language surprisingly
At the stretch of my curiosity
Language is still persisting
Now it became my dream//

‘O' Djinny Of Sweet Love
She hid in my mind,
My inner eyes can see.
O my eyes! You can't find
Always she is with me.
She assured and left,
To greet me at home,
Her promise I kept.
Guarding like a gnome.
I am not a love oozy
But I love her most,
I am not a love choosy
But I was her love host.
‘O' Djinny of sweet love!
A sweet song of my dream.
I lost my love dove,
Blinded with lost beam.

Eternal Bliss
floor of the moon, silvery white
someone dancing, cant be seen.
glimpse of shadow, unveils
a dark spot on the bright,
stars, unseenlives and the sea
sing sweetly: a spritual chorus
Hymn it should be...........
at the seashore,
unutterred whisper like prayer
with the tighten lips roars
lovers gather unconsciously
like a dream....
my soul flies, body lay asleep
an eternal bliss...
I am dreaming.....silently

Poet
Every day cloud burst over my head
Every day I die,
every day I dance In a dark room
of sorrow and happiness
Into the light, I shy//
Why to weep and why to cry
Under the veiled canopy of false hood
Still, at some precious moment
I have a movement
Into the deep dense wood//
With a naked thought of a child
A pawn like pen,
A chess board like a paper
Desirous Victory winning bard
Under thy Cord, O my Lord////
