Some Senryu Poem by Ram Krishna Singh

Unclothing
the white night-
lips meeting lips


Their first dating:
with inverted reflection
walk out of the bar

Moving between
the fingers of a toddler
the first winter rain

With his crying baby
he moves in the train's passage:
marital tension

Smoking woman
under a naked tree:
moon garden

Night's passage
on the beach with her:
silky sting

White stubble
round his august chin-
saturday

Sitting cross-legged
the Hutch receptionist
behind the glass

Awaiting
before the climax
the other woman

The village pond-
waiting for her arrival with
a baited hook

The young maid
giving her nightie
another spin

The wind lifts
her curved nudity hidden
in the water curtain

Tastier my tea
with her one sip-
I keep the cup
