Janaki Nilmini Poems

From this hotel window
I saw them dragged you away
Cheering and clapping
Proud of their catch
...

After the grande finale
Resting like dormant
Stage is empty
But, is it?
...

Do not fear me, I am with you when you say good night
I will guide you, as I do now it's the end of the day
So, be calm. Gently walk through the fading light
...

My mind is a plain white cloth
On which the memory needle often pricks
Sharp, bright, retentive and so forth
Occasionally it will also plays tricks
...

Often our perceptions
Of people, concepts and world
Are adulterated or skewed
So we see things
...

Freedom; liberation of mind

Our perceptions of people and world
Often adulterated or skewed,
...

Hear! Dawn orchestra
Milk, with unconditional love
Wake up time for school
...

Grazing gracefully in the meadows
Among the Autumn dark shadows
Silhouetted against the fading sunshine
I see your melancholy and decline
...

The first among to wake up in the Spring
The award winner, comes with a sting
Cannot touch the super herbal queen
Stinging Nettle pubescent and green
...

Spring green grass trembling
Cows cuddling newborns in fear
Trucks at the veal farm
...
