Shilpa Chaganti Poems

Deep in the silent darks,
wandering and swaying around
I was, once content with life full
and concern less.
...

The place where I used to stay,
I used to learn and eat and play,
My so many friends and toys
The shared sorrows and joys
...

I own two pairs of shoes
That hold a little magic of their own

The first pair is my favorite,
...

In the purplish dark night,
Stars twinkling and gleaming
With the rhythmic randomness...
...

In the cold night sky, sat the moon
Elegant though modest
Among the glittering stars dotting on him,
Like a pearl exuding careless grandeur
...

Let's me sail free, yet holding me together tight
Stays firmly grounded, for me, to attain horizons bright

All through the rough rains, gives me all my might
...

A treasured chest
Flooded with things
Petty and significant,
Old and new,
...

The unmatched Perfection
Strived to be attained by every fragment of the Nature

The epitome of Subtleness
...

Tumhara bacha hoon main, Maa
Main khud nahi aaya tha aapke pas
Khuda ke farishte rakh gaye mujhe aapke kokh me
Us adbhut Parlok se pariyon ka ansh chodkar
...

A Small baby, tiny and frail
Deserted he was, by all his kith and kin
Wandering the world-
Alone and aimless…
...
