Poetry

1.

A leafy, caramel & spice

green notes of

strawberry memories

roll on my tongue

A woody balmy

aroma of nostalgia

stirs & fills all

my sensations

I unfurl silver of

my lips

& nip #chocolate

memoirs of you

on my skin

stacked by fate

on deserted kismet

adrift

on wind of concavity

Mouthful solitude

dry

salty

sandy

barren by heat

of void

A banshee

whose whispers

fall cold in bones

her heart

a dried up sea

lost to thirst

3.

Larghissimo breaths

come together

& tap to beat of

musical tempo

Legato shapes

curve

& entwine

dynamics of

staccato passion

Louisiana blues night

as two

song become

One &

eyes

sing sopranos

4.

She loves me

She loves me not

Plucked as prayer beads

Petals of Le Conte’s thistle

Fell amongst pine of my penchant

Rolled like rosary peas

A possession, An obsession

You Rule…

My #head & My heart

Like a pulse

steady & tumultuous

All at once

With your single glance

5.

Spooled in finest

silky threads

handpicked

from time

I snick & sew

snug jacket

from rags of

cheerless blue

heartthrug of

life

To warm

cold breaths &

gelid sighs

lingering now

since you’ve left

Cuddled in

iridescent afghan

Among vibrant

motif moments

was #happiness

of You & Me

7.

Like paint

stained

in lines

defined

Living

in cut & dry

marks

confined

Out in

the world

far remote

from online

Is a place

where words

& meanings

come unfeigned

alpine

8.

In a shrimpy coffer

of memories

Under sheer

linen of cleaved

years

Is a sanctum for

sugar #pink letters

buried with

some cut-out

hearts, glitter &

petals

A balmy comfort

spreads from

words that echo

in scribbles

of unrequited love

Somewhere on

an enamoured

face

A smile must’ve

crossed thinking of

me

9.

Eyes seek

secrets

untold

To

seize

unknown

#curious mind

unfolds

Rise of ebbs

& fall of tides

waves foam

unified revelations

oceans lay disclosed

Quandary of universes

are gently placed

in folds of each

beat of

heart

unforetold

10.

As a calyx

of indigo

you hold

me in your

breaths

In your kiss

I bloom

&

stretch ink on

your archival pages

A blot of

oriental

calligraphy

You & Me

make a pair

Like a scroll

of ancient

Era

Once again

redefine story

of love

11.

Floating on wings
of cicadas
seasons twirl
to belly rhythm

Her spirit flows in
pleated sarong
a sway of girth
whirls colors
as technicolor
#movie unfolds

Dance a
Hora of joy
Clap to
Sounds of heartstrings
Tap in
Cadence of her beating tempo

For it lasts on fingered breaths
& then it’s gone

12.

Briny dusk has
come to steer
almond carriage
of amber eyes

Leaden throb has
come to pass
but sinking heart
stays heavy

Bereaved of sleep
wakeful eyes
shapes dreams in
contours of your face

Estranged breaths
still carry gloom
YET
I treasure moments
that
trail your memories

13.

Honeycrisp
tartness & playful
sweet spice tea is
sip of our love

Romance
of morning sun at
awning of window
a play of our wanton
connection

A #toxic
addiction to catch
sight of me
every now & then
in mirrored irises
of your garden

14.

D~E~N~S~E

Finnish silver birch woods

Disquiet
In
Silence

Restless
In
Peace

Like a hoot across it’s naked depth

D~E~E~P
D~E~S~I~R~E~S

In me

Hanker on the edge of lips
Waiting for your touch

15.

An apocalyptic love

Enshrouded in crypts of mind

Scrawled with vermilion

Beyond words

Bending the lines

Blade of reed

Binding pages

A poets love affair

Logged on empty recto & verso

An atrocious love story

16.

Dusk presses
& melts
washes shores
tangerine

Time stretches tempo
slugs
comes to a crawl

Slides veil off
of calming seasons
dwelling btween my eyes

A pale storm
lurks in parched breaths
comes to incite fading ambers

Burnt orange moment
Consumes me whole
I taste your name

17.

Covetous hazel dawn
in your eyes

Whispers milky wheedlr
white promises

Like lovestruck spider
spellbound by light

Ravenous dreams
weave a web #round

Each thread glistens
with your light

W I S H I N G

Perhaps one day
you’ll be mine

18.

I’ll sing to you in blue streams
About my love of indigo dreams

A joik to your stars and guitar
Strings melt to your serenade & sitar

Wistful trooper a beetle hung on daisy
Open my wings to your fancy & mercy

I’m the song of the waves
To your oceans & seas

I’ll sing to you in blue streams
About my love of indigo dreams

19.

A flutter of
1000 butterflies
when felt
abaft of bosom
in skin & bones

An ache
that curves
& bends the
course of penumbra
carving a blood moon

Because in-between
thirst of oceans
& amorous fervency
of falling rain

A poet dies & is re-born

20.

I’m
a
flambeau
breathing
skies

Gulping
seas
to
light
the earth

Darkness
a
nomad
shadow

Alive Gone
only when
to my they
emotives garrote

Nothing
is
Nothing
was
Nothing
will be

Nihility stays

21.

Rose has ripped
it’s gown
Moon is split in two
to emptiness

Lilies tiptoes
In shape of my
tongue

I’ll like to kiss you
meet me
in a willow

Where there is
no
right & wrong

Where the essence
Of flower that is true
Opens in our face

22.

You’re the mirror
I’m the face
You’re the wine
I’m the ache
of stupor

I’m sweetest dreams
If you’re my drowze
I’ll come to live
9 lives of a #cat
If you’re essence of
honeyed milk

You’re the pain
I’m the cure
You’re echo of tears
If I cry

Lovers don’t meet
somewhere
They’re in each other
All along

23.

I dip my fingers
In the dirt
& mold my
play doodles

Rains
sails quest
on paper boats
a caper set in
puddle

Music
on single tuner
radio
& hours of
escapade on
borrowed books
to enrich noodle

Take me back
when times were
simple
When there still
was marble on mantle

24.

Surfing down
Ripple fold drapery
You & I
Set a stage ablaze

Chaotic Ambers
Of emotions
Wrinkle satin sheets
Of time & space

Moan slips off starry gown
Of silvery white love story
A spectale echoed by
Applauding pink cleome cosmos

25.

I wrap you in my lashes
And shut them tight
Even in a blink
I hold you close in sight

I’m a song of cuckoo
Lovesick beholds
The melody
Of moon

An unclasped
Quintessence
Of earth as it dances
To rhythm of rain & swoons

In you
My lips savor sweet honey
In your armhold
Lies my satori

26. Cold misty curtain
Veils debut kiss
Runny streaks on windowpane
Saga of love-furore

27.

Animus,antipathy,aversion
Served by administration
It is what it is
Handed for domination

Time to elevate & motivate
& Rise up for this occasion
Octothrope virtue & trend
Kindness back as fashion

As when they go low
We go high &
Vote to end this
Contest antagonism

28.

There right there
On right corner of your pillow

I leave my dreams tucked on the side
I once called my own

There are some tears and some chuckles
Pearls and fragments of broken mirror
Few blossoms and little dirt

An abnegation of my essence
In me I carry you

29.

Voiseless music
murmurs a fluttering tune
in bosom

A breath swallowed like
a plea stuck in throat
to live thru this falling eternity

Timid lashes scream
at coy demure
to rise & steal a moment
braving a glimpse

Obstreperous your eyes
spill secrets
of ages that have known
we belong

30.

Muses
splattered
with
crimson
ink

Blotches
of multi-hued
feelings
framed on
grey walls
of mind

Agelast
the skies have
seen rise
& ruins of
this hearth

Beholden
is a quiet
poet
besotted
by it all.

31.

Castles of sand
grains of sun
& seas

Xertz stories
told by roving
tides

Bids messages
in bottles castaway
on waving ebbs

Are secrets kept
by horizon &
depths of oceans

Whispering in ears
a conch shell unwinding
antiquities of mortal coil

32.

A breath of
ache clamped
caught in throat

I pluck #finfugal
feathers of moment
blitzing time

Frozen eternity
splits barrages
me in two

The one I leave
at your doorstep
heals to survive

The one I carry
agonizes &
lives to die everyday

33.

Eyes close
to swallow
sweet flames
of fervor

As fingers
strum strings
of moonlight
rhythm

A moan of
white roses
sings in hallowed
whispers

Poet & muse
a union divine
as pen touches verso

34.

Autumnal song
of gold and crimson hue

Woven with colors
of lilies and gleaming dew

Are gossamer dreams
carried on feathers of doves
in pearly hew

Cornucopia of light
that heals all bleeding hearts anew

A mandala threaded in intricacies
of melodious sonnets of peace pursued
And a promise of summers being true

35.

Like a glutton
night thirsted
for moon

Inked envied
clouds having a
nibble on stormy skies

Stars guaffed
at his dark murky
deipnophobia

Seas jeered at his
duskiness while mooching
lunar hors d’oeuvre

Sol saves the skin of night
at dawn of day
light explicates some etiquettes
to the night

36. In crowd
Or in couple
In haze
Or in hone
In dwadle
Or a dance
In placidity
Or passion
I always love
the fact that
your anfractuous
gaze comes
to find and stay
On me

37.

Day & night met
at corner of her eyes

Life dawned
& set in those
kohl infused canthi

As a colporteur
of her pure essence
He an apostle
drank her elixir
beauty

To resume
a journey of
another morrow
& narrate
his breaths
to re-live his
haven yet again

38.

I cuddle
sadness that comes
to me in strings
defined

Gift some pearls
& a generous convivial
bid it a lavish farewell

But I stare vacant
to fluffy nameless woes
that elude my blue skies

Like an autumn ghost
that besieges a frost
to rot & swallow
budding summer berries

39.

I
Take
all of my hurt
Fill
unsaid utterances as
an ink to stain

I
spill some
tears, few meldrops
As
I imbue pages with my
pen

I
seal
this letter of
Forlorn
love with lips bitten
pain

I
drown
in eagre of your
Musings
you’ll know when
I pecker this mail

40.

Night plays
a sonata
Lips quaver
to the tune
Fingers pound
for touch of moon

A moment stays
ablaze in shadows
Hours pluck
at silken strings
Reap the pearls
absquatulates some

Soughs their
glister on to stars
Sky cracks open
raining in luminous
Quenching notes
An opus absolute

41.

Lonely night
bares teeth for a bite
I swallow a shiver
let the cold streak
run thru the spine

Wearing veil of pain
I skin out the sorrow
Each throb filling
me with warmth
A gentle numbing lull

Each passing minute
inching towards
a bairn dawn
where light sips
away, heals , darkest
tomorrow

42.

All I want to do is listen

With lips curved on a cup
& an occasional nod of acceptance

I’ll watch you lay the day open
Talk about it’s heat & thirst

How it rains in gloomy at tics of time
& how you warm it up with tocks of quip banter

Why it turns colder with turn of each season
& why you own mackinaw for every milestone

When comes my turn to say
I’ll fade into tea spilled pages filled with poems

Like a biblioklept read me over & over again

43.

Only a thought of my muse
gives a zealous thump
to this puerile heart

A small wayward glimpse
makes it crazy doolally
for a dare to skip a beat

Groke of my mind
preaches that all of it
is a chemical glitch

Heart whispers
try ruminating over it
once pulse stops a snitch

44.

Quiet on your lips
a shush on mine
our silences whisper
to the stillness

Arcadian time
widdershins
Emptying quibble
and some niggle

Pours out our lives
even the cherry & merry
leaves vase of our
memories bare

Each crystal shines
as light catches our name
to fall in love
all over again

45.

Burried in vaults
of tall castles of
memories forgotten

Sealed conjuration
never to crawl
the walls of begotten

A throb of this beating heart
exorcised the demon thru
defenestration out in open

Now like a dragon
it guards the cornice
spewing fire to any reasons

46.

A bride in a pearly gown
of snow clad peaks
& vivacious passions

Gale a whispering
veil of mist
of sheepish notions

A rivulet reflecting stars
of dreams to walk
& realize life’s quintessence

Waiting with a posy on horizon
an alexithymic pristine beauty
earth waits first kiss from heavens

47.

Gold of the
sun melts
to thunders

silver of
clouds meekly
hugs the clay

pandiculation
escapes earth
with colorful sigh

I taste honey
of the mist
windkissed by you

my eyes hears
whispers that
your eyes see

48.

A wabbit-ed
mind looks
at pictures
from past

Scratches
at wounds
left to be
scars

Violent waters
of grief & sorrow
are not
the cure

Heal & some more
beyond darkest
night opens a
brightest morn.

49.

Canvas stays
empty
though
memories made

Sound stays
muted
though
words ought said

Ink stays
on quill
though
pages wait lade

Mind that stays at
peace
at end of what has
lapsed or feats a hap

50.

hush hours
devouring
silence

tea escapes burning
dreams of you
in undoing fog

gold leaf memories
shiver an
unwelcome fall

pauciloquent
sips of your
name finds warmth

as dawn walks
another night wearing
eiderdown coat
