It felt splendid
When my gaze fell at the askoa blooms
In a plenty
Dotting the tree
...
Where they,
Where have they gone
Who used to keep us spell-bound
Telling the myths of Shiva,
...
Shiva's Night,
How would it be,
Shiva's,
Shiva going as a groom
...
Mahashivaratri
The Night of Shiva,
What to say about
...
Who is the veiled maiden
Crossing the footbridge
Over,
The burqa-clad mistress?
...
Decorating the hills and the highlands
With the clusters of blossoms
Clustered and in bunches
So florid and ornate
...
Blue Aparajita blooms
So dreamy, so lovely
Catching our fancy and imagination.
...
While passing through the way
Whenever I find the Ashoka blooms
Hanging by in bunches or clusters,
I want to pause a bit and stand under
...
While in the garden
Behind the house,
I saw the woodpecker
Flying to the tree
...
