I saw a rose radiant in the morn
How I wish it has no hurting thorn!
I stood on the shore of the tumultuous sea
I wish seagull's wings to fly along in glee.
...
Temple elephant
All made in ivory
It makes me wonder.
Gandhi in the calendar
...
Fish, at their own sweet whim
Softly glide, move and swim,
Colors feasting frenzied eye,
Make also fine attire simply
...
The parrot prattled
The mass and the elite
Gathered around.
The parrot uttered:
...
The dignity of India is hit.
India is sobbing helplessly,
As the ruthless hands of
Dussasan, the villain called ADHARMA
...
Rainbow
Is it the banner or festoon hung in the heavens, glorifying the rain?
When the sun-light and the rain-filled clouds embrace -
Perhaps the fond impress has brought the color-pattern!
...
Where knowledge is free
Horizons extend!
Brother and sister
In that ever-extending space
...
When the hard rock clashes and
Danishes vehemently
Without any worry the creek sings
Sweet melodies mellifluously;
...
Time is a wonderful maid!
She is changing her name daily
As- “Yesterday” “Today” and “Tomorrow”!
She never stops her travel
...
Oh! Men, who remain
Prisoners under the canopy
Blue and vast!
You are wriggling without
...
In the holy presence of
Lord Buddha,
His disciples gathered
In a mood awe-filled
...
Notes and Hues
Cuckoo sang to the notes of flute
Awakening my heart-strings hither to mute
The flash of lightning in blue heavens!
...
Tides mount in speed on sea
Tending to touch farthest sky,
But to oblige shore's silent plea!
...
Panda bear sprightly panda bear
In chill weather left to bear.
The fur-coat panda doth wear
As gift from nature's loving care
...
Oyster's mouth opened in fond hope
Then rain made its way into sea as drop
The dreamy time passed slowly
Someone dived deep for the reward pearly!
...
Waving fields green in a sunny day
Beckons, feast your eyes it may.
Azure mountains in snow-capped majesty
Attract your mind behind veil misty.
...
The sheet of water, the transparent pond
Looks beautiful, fine, woods beyond!
The pinkish lily smiles shed gladly
Its image on the sheet mirroring the lily!
...
In all majesty elephant treads
The track as the green mantle spreads
Forest wears new fine look
Amidst deep wood runs the brook
...

How I Wish
I saw a rose radiant in the morn
How I wish it has no hurting thorn!
I stood on the shore of the tumultuous sea
I wish seagull's wings to fly along in glee.
As I see the cluster of stars in sky
I wish I count them whimsically.
I wish to see two crescents in a while
As I behold twin tusks of the elephant, smile
Wishes a few come true at times,
The Bell of luck rarely chimes!
