Who says epics are worn out tales?
In every generation
at the turn of each corner
don't you see action unfolding?
...
Days are warm like friend's wishes
Evenings darker than earlier
A nip in the nightly air enjoyable mostly…
If not in winter when will it be so?
...
As awards sailed my way thrilled I was
when my speeches garnered applause
An orator par excellence, they said.
Bouquets, beauties, bed of roses!
...
Life is a cosmos.
Many planets
spinning melody
satellites around
...
Riot of colours across the sky…
splashing water, skidding kids
watchful eyes excited with mirth,
speed boats zoom, parasailing, banana boats,
...
'Greetings from Xanadu'
caressing voice wakes up slumbering soul
heard, unheard tales on roll
naïve listener a rocking doll.
...
Flying birds know destination
Swimming fish know direction
Does man know what he does, dear?
Certainly not- -
...
Adhaato brahma jignaasaa…
Well said, well started.
Quest marks mind,
...
In the midst of clouds of mistrust,
corroded souls spitting venom
thickening, sickening chaos on campuses,
stars illuminate the tepid sky
