Gulmohar flowers…
City feasts on vibrant hues
Brief relief from grime.

One Morning
At the horizon Clouds form dark blotch early morn... Coolness of the breeze. Coolness of the breeze Caresses her closed closed eyelids.. Respite from the heat. Respite from the heat Invites an amorous dream.. A clap of thunder. A clap of thunder Rude awakening,invites mourn... End of a sweet dream.

Enraged
Swiftly flowing mass
Lunge out from the tree’s branches…
Enraged bees attack.

Photographs
Innocence of youth….
Found in old sepia pictures
Times that have flown past.

The Final Match
Start of the final
Anxiety on fans’ faces….
Dreams propel players.

Jewels
Hardened by nature…
Mesmerising everyone
Through generations.

Separated Lovers
Time doesn’t slip by
Melancholy rests heavy…
The distant lovers.

The Woodpecker Visits
Sound of constant blows
Every morn at my window-
Woodpecker’s red plume.

Bonds
Detached leaves of trees
Vagabond in winter breeze….
Unyielding bonds break.

Lost Shine
Frost layer covers
Slowdown also in demand…..
Steel loses its glint.
