FANTASIES

  •  

                                        (A gazal style poem)
     
            Flash backs from the past
            Dreams woven in a cast
     
    Movies of mind in jerky beams
    Preojecting on lacy grayish screens
     
    Fantasies wondering in fairy- lands
    Like flashing streaks on crystal stands
     
    A darting star with a luminous tail
    Shoots across and leaves no trail
     
    Lovely moon serene and rising
    Taj Mahal of skies slowly gliding
     
    A flock of geese in late night flight
    Freaky shadows against moonlight
     
    Perception is rather slow
    Realization generates a kindly glow
     
    From living relations that are shared
    Cherished prized. loved and cared
     
    Sometimes soft music in the air
    That descends to heart to comfort to cheer

    RIPPLES OF LOVE

  •  

     

    Setting sun bathes crimson the faded sky
    Splash of amber fires each cloud low or high
    Perfume of fragrant blossoms will get away and ooze
    Whatever ways to confine one may choose
    Flames of fire subdued and gone
    Traces of smoke will linger long
     
    A spell of love will create its flutter
    Whatever ways taken to hide won’t matter
    So go ahead, sustain your love but keep it in the mind
    Some one will sense it somewhere somehow sometime
