Shalini Samuel Poems

Blue wave, white foam, washing the long shore
with its tender soothing hands, brushing away
my fading memories, polishing men's rock heart, at bay
-akin to the pebbles, the bubbly kids search to store
...

The glass window opens every morning
She gazes across suns golden rays;
Trying to solve the mystical mystery,
She joins her hands for a humble prayer
...

I am just trying to write again.
I am trying to fill the blank pages of life
With love, happiness and hope
...

I stand there emotionless
Someone is dead
Flowers adorn her smiling face
People come and go
...

The stars will come to our home
The moment night blushes at the sight of Dawn
You and me - the pulse of the night
fall dead on the seabed for a temporary rest
...

she finds a masterpiece
a beautiful molten heart
in his desperate eyes,
she sees no betrayal
...

Where are you hiding?

Oh, my dear father!
...

Pain expands, aching as shadows loom,
Like a thorny cactus, starved, yet it blooms.
It pierces the walls of the tender heart,
Outgrowing the fragile self, tearing apart.
...

Can you stop the aging?
It slips through your fingers.
Gather it, but like ice cubes, they will escape
You can't cage the invisible air
...

Seeing the world after lonely days-
Walking on the earth anew
Like a new born child
Just waking up from slumber
...
