A Poem

The word-plays full of mystery

In my agony your poem shines

Every question yielded poetry

Meanings lost in the twisted lines


A piece of your creation I was

You molded me any which way

Was I an effect or a cause

of your love I can’t say

What am I but a poem to you!


The upspring of nascent thoughts

had stirred the waves in a dull stream

The first touch, forced though it was

Remains my eternal dream


You play back the incidents

Dressing them up with rhythm

Mistakes, shadows and accidents

But love, you called it seldom

What am I but a poem to you!


Some random thoughts

Some Glistening shadows

Some sweet accidents

Some frozen bubbles

What am I but a poem to you!

Train To Paradise

Dark clouds, gloomy days

Paddy fields, muddy ways

Shivering winds, shades of green

Mud patches, cattle in between

Dry huts, tall towers

One odd cow, land-covers

Crooked curves, steel lines

Trails of smoke, shining lights

Skewed sky, departing trees

Jaded giants, shaded seas

Sparkling diamonds, velvet blues

Distant roads, sliding scenes

Mud houses, cotton cities

Colourful boats, busy streets

As I try to reach, all running away

Saying, ‘Go! You are not here to stay…’
