"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.

No Place Like Home


Summer evening,

Hot and humid,

Half-moon lights up the sky


White jasmine mellows

The warm air with fragrance.

I take a deep breath.


Evenings such as these 

Create a sacred sanctuary 

From a world in turmoil.


An invisible virus

Unleashes the tsunami

Of illness.


Fear and uncertainty 

Crumbles the familiar 

Way of life.


No place to hide......


White petals of Jasmine

And half-moon in the sky

Calm as ever.


A silent message 

Runs through my veins.

No place like home!
