Vidyadhar Durgekar

Blossoming far on faint horizon,
Hope in its fake material realm,
In the thoughts hidden dimension,
Of virtual imagery macrocosm;
...

It is your company in solitude I treasure,
Those are the imaginative moments of pleasure;
I long to be within your majestic universe ever,
To seek the creative bliss beyond measure;
...

Every morning in the deep woods of the concrete jungle
With my near and dear ones I sing a coarse musical,
Humans raise from their good night sleep with a frown of unpalatable
They call me ‘Crow’ and express their acerbity with a scowl,
...

Jealousy haunts golden lily,
Watching the riverside lady,
Angelic ebullient eyes unwary
Of the orchids stare and envy;
...

Wild forests, mountain range
Deep sea and Virgin Island
Habitat of exquisite species distinct
Gradually on the verge to extinct
...

Squatting on street with vegetable for sale
Watching power and money in ugly play,
My mother fell ill one cloudy day,
To save my mother I prayed and prayed,
...

First shimmering light I arose
Seeing a bunch of lovely rose;
Sun smiling through the window
Over the trees dangling bough
...

Tiny town on the coast of ‘Canara’
Like a silent beauty sleeping in slumber
Scenic contours untouched by recent era
In virgin ghats of Anshi, Shirve and Jamba
...

Quest of dreams in old tale,
Of towering ideals once heard,
Lost in the ceaseless time travel,
Dreams turning stale and cold,
...

Beyond the distant shores of seven seas,
Her sparkling smiles still in my memory,
I hear her whisper in the morning breeze,
Like melodious tunes of whispering bee;
...

You are there I can see, you are there I can see
Smiling at me with the cool morning breeze,
Those pink wet lips, taunting me as if I can feel,
Making me believe you love me more than I feel.
...

Sighting her in opposite mirror
Like a boundless poetic mirage
Finding no words I surrender
To the beauty unfolding its image
...

Bangle, bangle bangle yeh!
Come, see and buy for ye-
With colors of dreams, in store,
I came with motley bangles and more;
...

Air water and fire
Are within us to ire
Under ‘it', ' I' and the ‘upper I'
Devoid of reason and desire
...

Traveling in the passage of time,
With youthful dreams divine,
After relentless endeavor to shine,
Waning without a lifeline.
...

Sitting in her torn draped old cotton sari,
In front of her thatched roof hut tired and weary,
Watching those trees accompanying from her vivid memories,
She often narrated stories of ghosts from one of those haunted trees,
...

This world has various thoughts of school,
Truth, honesty were taught to me in school,
With honour they were the ones I chose;
And the life told me I will loose,
...

Birth from mother’s womb,
Blessed with heavenly bloom,
Signalling arrival where I belong,
With sorrow and sometimes a song.
...

Raven wings spread in air
Engulfing in cloud of despair
The tiny delicate soul
In darkness of wisdom lore
...

Acquaintances are many
On street, buses speak to any
Watch out they are not uncanny
Only to pastime during journey
...
