"Some days when I am able to pick a pen and write, I know I have been blessed."~Savita

Welcome to my blog. In my quiet hours I seek to touch the depth of myself and my surroundings. My thoughts that take form of poetry are just the scratches on the surface of life as it reveals to me. Wrapped in a delicate veil of symbolism and ambiguity these verses and expressions also fulfill my desire to share a bit of my self with others. I hope reading them would be as enjoyable for you as writing them has been for me.

Happy Thanks Giving To All

Much is wrong in the world
News casters would never
Let us forget it. But then again
Much is beautiful in this world
The people who love and care
For us would always remind us.
Much is always there to feel down
And disappointed. But then again
Something is always there to bring
A smile on face. On this Thanks Giving day
I would rather think of every thing and
Everybody who makes life beautiful.
Be thankful to all who bring joy and happiness.
Wishing peace and love to all readers of this site.
Even from a distance you have become a part of my life.

When Old And Young Are Together

Playing around 
Little boy and grandma 
Talk ceaselessly
Some time to each other
Some time above themselves
Their strings of imagination weave
A web beyond the sphere of reality.

           *******************

For the sake of old times
Grandma goes on slide
Sitting behind two year old.

Her screams brought by sudden
Fright and sheer joy took toddler
By surprise.....
Scared and distraught two year old decisively
Puts his little hand on Grandma's round belly.

No! Grandma! No go on slide!
putting an end to grandma's next round
Of thrilling return to childhood!

A Yard Full Of Leaves

Anemois are fierce today
Attacking from all directions
Carrying orders from Thanatos 
Life must go alike out of  
Woods, valley and bower 
Rodents scuttle to go underground
Birds take off on long journey
And men stock their shelters
Anticipating season's change.

Wind shook the tree branches
Like acute cough shakes the
Sick, old skeleton facing life's end
Leaves that in a spectrum of color once
Made the trees look magnificent 
Graced the vines in arbor
And swept the forest in fluorescent beauty
Flew in all directions released
To have a short taste of freedom.

They danced on streets
Romanced the waterways
Churned silence with nimble cadence 
And fell upon earth in heaps 
Filled the ditches
Covered the lawns
And brushed against window panes
Jovial and free spirited.

Submitting to the brutal assault
Of wild Boreas and Notos
They are the harbinger
Of season's change 
Almost numinous in their gentle
Reminder of Life's finite moments 
There isn't a graveyard 
As humbling and serene
As a yard full of dead leaves.

Fall

Nature feels sober
On this cloudy fall day
Sunny morns winding down
For chilled mornings
Leaves, in a spectrum of color
Roll over ground like
Sleeping ballerinas roll in bed
After a night’s performance-
Limp and timid.
