Poems:

THE NEW YEAR

Time sprouts...

giving an all new vision to the world

and lo keeps flowing like an incessant stream

of sweet redolence!

 She deludes the man I dreamed of

with sacred ablutions

and walks him through the paths of prosperity...

and makes him to rise again

and raise in his voice

 new tones of hope!

Let us become milestones on the paths

we tread and keep walking with hope...

crossing the Autumns

 and reach at last the oceans of love,

where let us discard

the weared down old sin-soiled bodies

and Wear new bodies of pure love

and invite  sweet and aloud a new divine world!

POETIC PRAYER

Always those bursting out travails

of  live become my burning muse.

With nectars sipped out of poesy

I try to baptise these lives.

Yes...I learnt from my wise mother,

how to console the woebegone

and my father taught me

how to root my unbending spine

deep into the soil of pain to stand tall in the life!

I am not just a poet with trumpet in hand...

but a warrior of life-battle

who kissed with ardour the lips

of troubled world.

I can't knot myself with the grizzled definition of life.

I can't shake hands with those

inexplicable estrangements I behold around...

I can't tete-a-tete with the muted humaneness...

Well. I start my prayers

before the temple with broken sculptures...

vivify the soul-statues with my poesy ambrosial

and holding an eternal torch of wisdom in hand

I go round awakening the world.

An Odyssey along the Estuary

The river is calling me

painting me with the memories

of body and soul,

walking me in to the human streams,

dipping me pulling me out

and rejuvenating me again and again...

under the raising and falling wave memories..

it's all to bestow her benisons on me ..!

At the estuaries

where the nascent days

meet the incipient nights

and old nights melts into the young day breaks

I entered....

while dipping in to the river ,

not to break in to pieces

I besmeared my self

with the balsam of historical aphorisms

and I sprouted again like the dawning Sun..!

I vouch,

as long as river flows

this talking me

and listening thee

will live..yeah sure live

Yeah.. I have the save feeling

at this blissful estuary,

bringing back the nostalgia

of walking behind my mother

holding tightly her well ironed hand loom  sari...!!
