Adventure : Head or heart ?


she got it wrong,
the free bird reminded her-
money never goes high.

Sheela sat at her desk , looking out of the window. She could see the sun set in far horizon and the birds return home. she wished she could return home too. Then very slowly , she turned to look at the laptop screen where the Outlook showed a whole lot of emails awaiting her reply. She knew it would be another long day. Or night, she laughed to herself , hearing the office go silent.

If only she had listened to her heart to go on that adventure with him. That unplanned vacation he had so excitedly asked her to take with him. The trip he finally went alone and both of them missed each other so much. Just then, he called her and she made a mental note to join him over weekend, wherever he was and not to return for another week.

The pending work did not make her sad anymore.
She was finally let her heart win over her head.
And she felt lot better after a long time.

confessions


sugar coated words
hurt no less;no more my love
truth sets the heart free


life forever sets
your deeds against icebergs
kept safe by wisdom

A Wish


if it could be true,
she wished for scripted peace,
tulips smile for her.

Wedding : joys and pain

Mother and daughter
looking ahead , looking away
a wedding awaits

a wedding awaits
sweet pain of separation
dreams of new life.

family tree spreads
new branches, new memories
love and moments flow

Winter winds

Withering wind blows -
storm from your memories
flashes of your touch

Marriage

A bed of roses
they together walked upon
healing scars from past.





healing scars of past
they sow seeds of love and care -
tree of happy life.

Sensible Art & Verse

Flying Down, 2006, by David Salle



"A for airplane
B for bums
C for colors
D for duck"
so goes the little rhyme
from the kid trapped in me
his giggles echo in my heart,
and the day sooms to smile free.

Please forgive me for this verse. I don't know why I thought this way as soon as I noticed the airplane.

And now a haiku :

"a sensible art"
he said,showcasing this work,
"perhaps to the blind"

Me , the Island-ed

Nestled in your arms,
my heart seeks absolute peace
solitude falls in place

Starved



constant starvation -
her love for words kept aside,
she feeds his silence.

Conversation with her


troubled heart or not
half the truth but lies never told
my mother hears me best

between old photos found
smiles within the tears

My muse






a leap here and there
across reality, she stretched
her dusk colored wings

a dark shadow today
she slept over the mist clouds;
rains tomorrow.

yesterday she flew
light speed of thoughts at me
undressing words free.

shapeless,senseless
you my love, my life,my love
wonderful mess.
