Vinaya Joseph Poems

Dizzy with heat,
A city prayed for shield,
Against boiling temperatures
Sun, the scoundrel
...

She is...

A mother,
A daughter,
...

Rejection is hard to accept,
In relationships,
A denial can change
The course of your life
...

"Thank you God,
For the little bees, birds & butterflies,
As they break my dawn,
With their love-filled notes,
...

Why do I need to cry?
For a dishonest man,
First you enticed my heart,
Then you slowly took my peace away,
...

On a bright October night, I took a free ride
Into the depths of my imaginations,
Flickering in the murky chambers of my heart
I saw the brightness of a flame lit by affections
...

I wait for your call,
Tears run down my cheeks,
One more relation
In a coffin,
...

Today is Onam,
I was in no mood to speak,
To anyone,
I sat down on my own,
...

Father arrives with cod, a fisherman's pride,
From his shop, where ocean secrets hide,
Mother's kitchen smells of black coffee, rich and bold,
Warms the soul as stories unfold.
...

Life is an art,
Painted by self,
Mind is the canvas,
And thoughts are the colours,
...
