Evening casts early shadows in December.
As dusk falls heart is filled with longing,
I have an appointment, I suddenly remember…
Quickly I put on my coat and stockings.
...
Touch
His warm, sideways glance
Wrapped me like an angora shawl-
...
Please call me by my true name,
Not the ones that with tags came;
For it always reminds me
What I truly want to be…
...
Can I lie dormant
As tulip bulb in winter
To hibernate,
And come up feeling better,
...
Has our planet ever charged rent for living on it?
It shared its bounty, though some rules were implicit
How could we be so short-sighted and full of greed.
We may have to pay a price for this, God forbid.
...
As I crossed
The threshold
Of my new home,
As a bride
...
When toxic and volatile emotions
Are causing confusion and commotion,
Feelings are hijacked, hot thoughts race,
Mind gets enveloped in a rage.
...
On a visit to granny in the Doon valley
It was March and the tree full of Mulberries.
Red, purple teasing from far, fetched a cane basket
Joyfully picked one, ate some while birds created racket.
...
Destroyed the physical
Evidence of our love;
What to do with
Ones etched in memory?
...
