The Truth Reverse
Nothing is universal,
But, the truth reverse.
What we see sometimes,
Isn't true but farce.
The abstract seems concrete,
The concrete appears abstract.
The thing we hate ever,
Also can attract.

Mother
Her eyes are blank,
Clothes torn, ragged & patched
Beauty has taken renunciation long past;
She has no rank,
wizened and shrunken face-
Tells no story of glamor.
But she laughs
She smiles
She is a MOTHER! !

Hollow Girl
How many times tried I to hug you oh life!
You denied it and turned your face back!
I let out a cry, it penetrated the Sky,
And made a hollow sound!
The Black hole swallowed my nerves and veins
I became a Hollow Girl! !

Can Darkness......?
Can darkness be dispelled by darkness?
Needs light to drive away it!
Can love be won by hatred,
by stopping one's own heart beat?
No, none can see none
if there's lack of light...
If you uproot others' eye,
Can you end your fight?

They Make Fun
You do not know love,
is a fountain, a stream,
or drops of rain.
Force can not win it,
Rather giving pain....
They know it, even you.....
But they jeer at as,
Booby trap, the words,
To make you shout, scold,
Other silently laughs.

Mirror Image
Mirror image tells,
How old we all grew!
We disbelieve it,
Believers? A few.
We seek the childhood,
Memoirs of past.
We can remember,
Thirty years last.
But we show a grudge,
To the growing age,
We want to deny,
The mirror image!

Crossing The Lea
Crossing the lea,
it comes to me.
Breaking cloud's chain,
They pour as rain.
Pittar-patter sound,
I hear around.
The droplets all,
Musically fall.
The roads and lanes,
look like drains.
Girls and boys,
making noise,
walking gay,
Rainy Day!

Looking At Your Eyes
Looking at your eyes
is to drink wine...
in your every word
my heart does shine.
Your lashes tell,
how deep you think..
In my soft tale,
they slightly blink.
I drank many pegs
from your fathomless eye.
For this pair my dear,
thousand times I die!

Who Am I?
Who am I to rock,
to change the way,
like weather cock?
I couldn't catch,
anything in fist.
I didn't win the match.
I ran behind all,
in the playground.
Finally, I did fall.
I never, want to win.
Now, I'm at the same place,
as I always, have been.

Behind This
Nature, makes fly,
Little butterfly,
on the flower,
in morning hour.
The tiny bee,
one can see,
always busy,
not she lazy.
The naughty wind,
thus entwined
and pollinate;
writing fate,
of future seed...
Nature indeed,
behind this game,
in her realm.
