On visiting Chihuly glass and garden
Casting and bending, heat and huffs make glass stand to multifarious shapes and sizes
From rings to panes, floors and walls.

President Droupadi
Not a Droupadi of the Mahabharat

A Bride
Bride of Nature
When plants are so beautiful
Slim, sound
With green and pinkish veils
Under gowns speckled with flowers
yellow red pink violet and scarlet
I brood
How i fell in love with a girl so passionately
Instead of a bride of Nature.
A girl ascends to womanhood
To fall to wrinkles and dying numbness
Where with every fall
A tree grows better with new Auburn leaves...
True love is as tall as trees
As safe and boisterous as nectar
Better to love a plant
And die and burn over her ribs.
