Not much to say
Nor a look
Just silence.
Mind unconvinced
Empathy shared
Just silence.
A loss irreplaceable
For the soul-mate
Just silence.
I hear her speak
Of life and living on
In silence.

Only Fell Along
Only a furlong
The distance gauged in a blink
I walk, and walk
Aimlessly the miles
The distance gauged into infinite
I knock, and knock
The endless while
The destined I see in a blink
I halt, and turn
Skeptical yet assured
The destined never faltered
Only fell along.
Explain…
As I sit thinking
My husband puts his arms around,
My shoulders feel his warmth
A smile spreads instantly.
As our eyes meet
I say, I love you,
A sensory reaction
I fail to explain….
My personal diary is dusty and outdated.
Have shared with her everything;
A silent witness to my tantrums too.
She means not much to me now
Yet I cannot imagine parting;
As I look at her in the cabinet
I say, I love you,
A sensory reaction
I fail to explain….
A few days ago I got a mesh fitted
To keep the intruding pigeons away;
Yet they built a modest nest outside the kitchen
And the couple continued to live unaffected.
Annoyed though, I cannot stop feeding them
For the sheer joy of seeing them together.
As their eyes meet mine in fear
I say, I love you,
A sensory reaction
I fail to explain….

Wander
An artist’s delicate wonder
Anonymous reality
Evade the enormity
A miniature porcelain baby
I wander….
Variety is the Spice of Life
