Phoenix

Day-12 #OCTPOWRIMO2016

In the 

flavored evenings

When strong gusty wind

Rocks the boat 

of faith.

A dormant resilience

Suffice 

from the ashes

Breaking the woes 

Into an abyss, of nothingness.

LIVELY PERSONA (Double Acrostic)

DAY-11 #OCTPOWRIMO2016#

Living in a  coerced shell
Inhaling, a life of a bottled jinni
Victory was just a leitmotiv 
Enduring the angst against fate
Love knocked on her thorny whorl
Yearning a new dawn of joy.

Poetry built a rapport with kinship
Everything felt like a dreamy smile
Rosy dreams embraced the dreamer
Serenading her in the swelling delights
Overflowed happiness from a roaring inferno
Never was life such a heaven 
Amidst the heartbreaking pitfalls rose a soaring Madonna.

Optimists

Day-1 #OCTPOWRIMO#

The discovery of oneself

Unfolds many possibilities.

With his chin held high

Gaining small victories

Paves a path of sublimity

Man moves ahead with certainty.

There are many avenues

Lined with rough patches

Life take turns in mystical ways.

A paper soaked in ink

Can be somebody's downfall

And, in a given moment, can move mountains.

Those feelings of loneliness,
      Break the heart into pieces
            When the sun goes down.

             Spiraling through the motions,
      Different shades of fear attack
Those feelings of loneliness.

Sometimes, courage do fail
     In that moment, when the world, 
            Break the heart into pieces.

           How brave the soul is!
    With passionate strength, it breathes again,
When the sun goes down.

The Obstacles

DAY-8 #OCTPOWRIMO-2016

Cruising through the journey
Life weaves a web of remorse,
Every force a tempting destiny,
Challenging the lucid course.

The mind does wanders,
Through the porous blunders
Dodging every pain lucidly
We embrace life wholeheartedly.

Childhood Delights

Day-7#OCTPOWRIMO-2016#

On dark winter morning,
When the birds go flying,
The tongue felt searching,
With a feverish urge of wanting.

Many times the delightful flavour,
Caused the heart to flutter,
On dark winter morning,
When the birds go flying.

How delightful were those days!
The enjoyable taste of deep fries,
Satiated the palate growling,
The tongue felt searching,
With feverish urge of wanting.

Romancing the poison Ivy ( A Cascade)

DAY-4 #OCTPOWRIMO-2016#

In the hues of luscious red,
Hearts melted in romantic ache,
And how! the camouflage completes the soul.

Shaded with bygone era,
Time serenaded fragrantly,
In the hues of luscious red.

We too have betrayed
In the changing spectrum ,
Hearts melted in romantic ache.

Maybe it is time to feel
The paradise of poisoned purple
And how! the camouflage completes the soul.

Life Carrier

DAY-3 #OCTPOWRIMO-2018#

In its womb

Lies the heart of life

Sparking with a force

It carries umpteen

Histories buried

Deep in its abyss.

Some dazzling creatures

Embrace happiness

In the darkness

Breathing sequinned

Tiny, restless breaths.

Suspended on its wings

Hope walks

In the heart of humanity.

THE VOID (An acrostic)

DAY-2 #OCTPOWRIMO#

Tuning through the haze

Hard life knocks

Eternally, in small doses.

Very difficult to sustain 

Opposed views

In the stormy weather

Devoid of feelings.

Time Zones

OCTOPOWRIMO-2016

Time to revel

Certain time lapses

Brooding over

As 

Spilled coffee.

Too many dents In those words.   

Where they come from?

Who utters them?

Why do they cause pain?

A cacophony of tennis balls

Tic-tac, tic-tac,tic-tac.

Marinated thoughts 

Dance in a 

Kaleidoscopic carnival.
