the glowing witness
bonded the souls in its warmth
in blessed union.

the lifeless remnants
dissolved in the sacred warmth
freeing the caged soul.




In Hindu traditions, fire plays a pivotal role in every phase of our life. From birth to death, it's presence marks our journey.

Colorful Temptations

Day-7 OctPoWriMo-2015


They come
 In different shapes and colors
Irresistible sirens.

Auburn and amber
Mahogany, beige and copper
Chestnut and russet
Pudding and tart.

These sinful temptations
Making me curvaceous
In forbidden places.

I bemoan my fate
Falling for their antics
Knowing it is not wise
To cry over the size.

Life is too short
To worry and moan
These colorful darlings
Brings cheer and happiness
On its shiny wings
Wrapped in small doses.

The Unknown Path

Day -7 OctPoWriMo-2015




It was not easy
To walk these dark corridors
Leaving behind, a life of comforts;
Walking on the thorny path
Letting the sores control my heart.
Everyday, poisonous ivy
Made its way
In the secret chamber
Where the sighs, silently whispered.

Life, let these hurdles, in my way
To make me more stronger,
To bear the harsher climes,
To see the brighter side-
As the kernel grew fruitfully
Showing those decisions,
Which were taken, in moments
Of uncontrolled fallacy
Now becoming blissfully,
Symbols of my crowning glory.

Pain ,
Fissured: 
Came encored,
Bringing along
A magical muse.
Encouraging,pushing
In those disfigured moments
Letting freedom a fair chance to-
Rejuvenate a wingless force
Make a future in poetic verse.
 


 Used the Etheree format.10 lines of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 syllables.

Inflamed Hearts

 DAY-5 OctPoWriMo- 2015

My sand soaked toes
Touched yours
Sending million nerves
Electrifying the uneven depths.

I remember when we first met
Walking on the same beach
Holding hands, as if life was at risk
You, tenderly touching the tresses
And blowing soft kisses,
Making my virgin heart
Skip a number of beats
As love left its imprints.

Now, with entwined fingers
We walk toward the sunset
Breathing the fragrant winds
Echoing an age old language

With salt and pepper going astray
And bodies arching sideways
We make a melody of lost times
Knowing, these borrowed breathes 
Won’t last long, in our inflamed hearts,.

Cup of Love


DAY-4 OctPoWriMo-2015 



 Image from google


There was magic in the air that day
Dressed as a bride
Nature came on sweetened wings
Showering the first bloom
With a luscious kiss.
As the elixir touched their lips
Gossamer leaves danced in delight
Cuddling them with love
On their verdant bosoms.
Those magical pearls
Carried life, nestled
In their hearts
Awaited by the parched lover
To feed the million hungry mouths.
