Five Liners-11-15 Poem by Indira Renganathan

11 Terrace Pastime

About fifty crows crying around
Is Saturn in transit battle against me?
I look for sun's help.But he hides
Behind the clouds.Comes handy my hanky
Saturn loses as I wave it in air in rounds

12 She And Her Vanity

Sun's a big fire ball lighting bright
Why does he rise red or pink at dawn?
'I know' lotus says.'He's in love'
'Up the horizon as he's rising
I'm reflected on his face bright'

13 Angels At The Window

With great struggle of finding apt words
My heart's in heavy thinking process
A miku poet overtakes in a flash
'Window scent/angels from heaven/
Jasmine blooms'. But I say 'beyond words'

14 Triplet Wants To Wed A Couplet
Triplet wants to wed a couplet
But Quatrain his mother denies
'A quatrain or a triplet' she says
Triplet retorts, 'ma, remember
Papa's a Quintain, so I shall wed a couplet'

15 Desire

Desire helps to reach one's goal
But with perseverance. Even a yogi
Desires to reach the divine trance
Desire has many facets of good and bad
Depends on which you choose on the whole
