Falling leaves in autumn,
Washing all the sins away.
Crushed under the feet’s rhythm,
Mixing with the soil and clay.

Washing all the sins away,
Headed to fresh new start.
Mixing with the soil and clay,
Fixing the broken heart.

Headed to fresh new start,
Blooming flowers in spring.
Fixing the broken heart,
Like melodies from violin’s string.

Blooming flowers in spring—
Gave me a fresh new start.
Like melodies from violin’s string,
Solace that flowers bring to my heart.
A Pantoum presenting a complete loop from decay to rebirth and renewal and the solace we find upon renewal.

Wind drifting through grass
At my feet, it stops and moans
Wind breaks- moaning ends
When the wind stops, silence remains- the moment of stillness.

Candle burning out
Becoming smaller, melts down
Still giving out light
The hope that remains even when eveything is shattered.

Water dripping down
From the leaf after the rain-
And the last drop falls
The silence after..........

Saw this place somewhere
Oh! It was my golden dream
Now the dream haunts me
There are some places where you cannot go even if you want to because of the people or yourself.

Little boy flying kite
Drifting in the air, strand breaks
Holds the strand alone
The moment of loss — when something slips from your hand. And you cannot do anything instead of standing and watching it.

Sitting on shoulder
Swallow says to Happy Prince-
I will never leave
The moment before letting go.
