Through the day
I think about you
Each time you
Make me feel new
Remarkable,
That indelible musky waft
Your face like a handcraft
My solitary moments
Often confined in spur
Every now and then
I find myself
Admiring your picture
Always,
You play on my mind
Now I know
Why people say
"Love is blind"

Bharti

Sometime ago
I went to him for relief
What I came back with
Was an additional belief
Unaware of the profound impact
Ignorant of the impending fact
That somebody would change
The course of my thoughts
He will become the ocean
My thoughts, the river
As destined
Submerging in the ocean
Is the river’s final run
And that additional belief
Of loosing is an absolute fun

Bharti

Work is worship, since childhood
Is the lesson ingrained in my brain
When I am at work today
I found that lesson vain

Actually, it’s what kind of mentor you get
For he is responsible for all you feel
He can shape your day into a boon
Or push it into an absolute reel

Commonly, all shirks are crowned
Mostly, all wise are push aside
People do it all to be there
To become the apple of their eyes

I strongly feel at work
Your work should be your face
Deserve before you demand
Claim what is yours with grace

I lived by this principle till date
That’s why raise came to me very late
At the end of the day I am content
For work is to live; it’s not all your fate

When your grey is marooned
Life seems like a goon
Pliability is cached somewhere
Boldness becomes a tough affair

Brooding over roughs
Becomes the way of life
Seething over pain
Is all you think is fine

Strong mind becomes
So fragile and meek
Constant approval always
Is then what you seek

Yes, yes, you are
B
      R
            O
                   K
                         E
                                                     N from within
But do you realize
Only a broke knows
Value of everything

So unleash the pain
In one go and just holler
Remember, every holler
Makes you stronger

Once your anguish
Is washed out in tears
Your vision to foresee
Future becomes clear

Say cheers to life!

Indent your view to a little right
Perfect profile proclaiming light

Bharti

Past is rigid
Can’t change
Present is vivid
Hold the rein
Future is ghost
Figment insane

Bharti

You die; I die
You live; I live
You laugh; I laugh
You cry; I cry
You hate; I wait
Till late
Because
Love is not
Always
About a tie!

Bharti

Artists are like crystals
Must be handled with care
One slip
Oops!
You loose it all there
However
On the brighter side
Even if they shatter
They still glint
Whatever be the matter
Crystal cleaving
May scatter the lusture
But the process
Can never douse the dazzle

I always held deep reverence
For people in three occupations
Farming, medicine, and defense
For the reasons appealing

Farmers feeding
Doctors healing
Defense shielding

Seasonable occasion
To sing about defense
Today these lion hearts
Will be my subject to pen

We may critique our nation
For it slithering move
But one team deserves
Applaud for being resolute
Team defense
For formidable reasons
They fight for us selflessly
Irrespective of seasons

I reminisce my visit
To Wagha border once
It's elating to see
Armed forces lacing
Our pride in balance

Forgetting all bitter
Citizens fervently cry
Jai Hind
Unanimous voice in reflex
Don’t know why

Joining defense is a willful step
A malice can never serve
Day in day out these brave men
Hold our pride in suave

Salute to these people
Who for us
Sacrifice their lives everyday
These true resolutes
Uphold our independence
In every possible way
Second by second
Minute by minute
Month by month
Year by year
And will in
Years to come
For this
Bharti’s
Salute to them!

*Bharti

When poets thoughts go bare
They evince without care
Minds brimming
With stories to share
With every phrase
Minds undress
Layer by layer
Some use fiction
Some illustrations
Nevertheless, for them
Spilling beans is always fun

*Bharti

Nature needs nurture today.
Remember!
If NATURE does not ALLOW
Our lives would not be WOW!

*Bharti

On and off
Flickering grey
Chirpy feelings
Parked at bay

Unalloyed devotion
Just for one
Pushes you
Into oblivion

After a lot
Hue and cry
When you learn
The lesson why

Transition from
Tears to smile
Bubbles the senses
Though takes a while

Bharti

Rains have stolen my rainbow terrain
Left to yearn for the sunshine again
Heart full of moss

For every earnest question
Your response lacked conviction
An adroit silent escape
Saying that’s how I am made
Is like hammering my gentle trust
Leaving my crackled heart in crust
Just like your dire attempts to woo a foe
I wanted a fraction of that attention you know
I still in hope, of being understood
later or soon
Follow you like a goon!

One smile it takes to cloak it all
One smile for all to reveal
But, it all depends on
"What's the Deal?"

Bharti

In retrospect, I found
Something profound
"I want I will; I don't I won't"
WILL is the mother of all actions
That's infallible, abide or shun
But then,
What shudders the WILL train
Reason is common and plain
When hurt, I stop
My follow WILL slops
So,
WILL needs fuel incessant
If there's no support
Goose self-motivation

*Bharti

Thanks for showing me the mirror
Where it is written a-loof
But I am just emotional not a-fool

Bharti

I cry oceans full
Do you care?
I die thousand times
For that glare
Thoughts are broken
Lost that flair
Shattered into shards
Can you repair?
Cloudy monster
Played on mind
Needed an angel
To unwind
Since angels
Are rare to find
Did it all by myself
Unfolded the blind!

Cost free is expensive smile
Easy to learn hard to find
Just that beaming curve
Is the best shape
For aaaaaall to entwine

*Bharti

On you
When I ruminate
I pulsate
Can you hear?
That pulsing throb
Peace of my share
That you robbed
Oh no dear!
You just don’t
Else, you wont
Plunder peace
With your charm
Tantalizing me
To be in your arms

I know I know
Its my figment
As of now
But I wish to
Feel it live
Every night
I resolute
Next day
Will surly
Spurt out
Probably
It plants
In your heart
That love sprout

Till I muster
The courage
To express
I will
Just wait
And ruminate
On you!
Because it unwinds
My locked smile

*Bharti

Commotion of waves
Filters innate dross
With a heart in rave
And soul in gloss

*Bharti

(:-----------------------:)
At times I am lost
I too feel dross
But
In your fraternity
My laughter
Attains eternity
(:-----------------------:)

*Bharti

He was silent and stunning
She was spirited like a spring
When they opposites attract
I think its natures trick
To balance the act

*Bharti

Your euology to me afterlife will be futile
When I have been waiting to hear you all this while

*Bharti

Pearls of words when bought together
Glides you into the world another

So powerful is their magical effect
Can turn an abject to a perfect

Vica-versa is equally true
So, affair with words is a matter of few

Beauty of this affair is always a pleasure
Relish every moment of this open treasure

Cheers to all who are engaged in this fling
For words, add to the feelings that extra bling

*Bharti

When heart and mind close
And everything blows
Just a prayer
With tears in eyes
Calling for god
Helps you rise

*Bharti
