Raghurama Raju Poems

No, that's not the way
One should compose a poem!
If everybody understands
What's great about it?
...

Green, most often!
Red and biege, other times!
Colourful and colourless,
Camouflage or something,
...

' Dear, Shall we buy a Saree today? '
'No, I do not need at all! I have too many! '
'Darling! You aren't as interested as earlier! '
'May be! One can't bethe same forever! '
...

Colours and colours, everywhere!
To spread, sprinkle and spray
Across the faces and upon the clothes!
Chasing or being chased is just for fun!
...

What is there,
In that remote village?
Where buses and trains
Never run in your life!
...

We are men.
We don't know how and what women look for in men!
But we know much about ourselves.
We look at women as lumps of flesh
...

Waves,
Tiny waves -
In a cool, calm
Serene tank
...

I know the pain in your eyes
Though my eyes are fixed on your flawless skin
I also know what made you do such things!
Fake emotions in your face
...

Winter this year,
Is truly severe!
In the chilly morning,
even tooth paste
...

Not now and then,
But again and again,
I do open
My worn out phone
...
