Mind worries as sun blazes
dwindling up water sources
held so close like precious treasure,
As earth spins, yearning for change!!

Soil waits in anticipation
Longing for monsoon’s gentle touch
and to hear stories from heavenly sky
gathered by collective clouds!!

Leaves stretch out their eager hands,
While roof tops become willing recipients
To embrace the raindrops
As convoy from the sky above!!

Mind dances as if on cloud nine
As celebration of renewal
Of dried-up life and leaves...
Waiting for the splash of rain
across every breeze in its way...
Of lone long walks with no barriers
between soul and heaven!!

You are at times the sun
Shining white yet burning like fire
And at other, your are the moon
Glittering like gold and smiling cool...
It's been a miracle for me
To watch you every day
Though miles and miles away
Creating the magic of day
And night in my life !!

Some facts
I know are true ..
And that's understood
To the core ...
Still
there's an anxiety
Between certainty and  illusion
Like dream and reality
And in between I live
My life ....!!

Bruises deep inside
And scars in prominence
Of inexpressible pain
With words struck within throat
Needs a rhyme of care
And a smile of words
to heal me ....from within!!

Your clouded mind
Showered on me
Rains of pain !!

Now I see  clearly
Where I stand.. !!

No coloured words
No covered feelings
No surreal perfections
Yet...with all imperfections
It's so real.....
And that's me
And my heart  !!

With a shattering smile
You left me in exile
And for you it's been an art
Knowing well it breaks my heart
As into tens of thousand pieces  
Until my breath ceases!!
  
Broken pieces of my heart
That lay scattered as a piece of art
Healed by itself in your thoughts
In a venge to rise against odds in lots
From the floors of time to face
Everything of anything with grace!!

Your choice to leave me forever
Is no more for me a nightmare
As my lone broken heart
Is gutsy enough to face our ways apart
With boldness of ten thousand hearts
Accepting ... somethings... can never be bought!!

My fights with you
Is my fight for you
For your love for me
For the love I have for you
For it's only you
For me to love and fight
And both of these , with you
Just makes me go crazy !!

Keep your mind straight and firm
For success of your goal
With fitness not neglected
Move in confidence , sure to win !!

Glory and fame might envy your rivals
Sternly you don't compete with them
Compete and compare with you
Each day...and every other day
For a better you !!

Throw away the scar of troubles you faced
As each day is a new day if eyes are opened
Walk away from negativity that holds you back
By pooling your energy like sun !!

Stand on your legs firm
That you don't fall down so easily
Come what may like roaring waves !!

Small is always beautiful
Things or deeds...
little care for flora  around
Of dullness strife environment
Fosters their eagerness
To grow in abundance
Making our Earth
A glorious green planet !!

Petals of  dried flower  
Lay fallen dry and dull ...
Happy fragrance sent around
On glorious colourful days
Fades from memory..
As  songs loses its words
And words loses its music...
And trying to hear the unsung song
I feel fallen....
With no glorious past
Or colourful future!!

My
Heart sings
Your praise...
And
My
hand writes
those phrase !!

I have a pond, a tiny one
With crystal like water so little
Each day Lily blooms
And it's a beauty to see it blossom
so elegant...

As sun rises, Lily nudges out
Face to sun standing tall..
And goes stumped down
When Sun gets to set...

With disappearance of sun
My Lily drowns into water
Feeling sad , for seems gone
The one for whom she lives
Each day...and every other day..

Having adored  and wondered
Her love for sun...
My restlessness inquired her...
She just smiled and blushed..!!
With a meaning hidden ...
That I could read....
Every one's love has a reason behind..
Sometimes....
inexpressible ....in words !!
-

Smiles and laughter that you gave me
Has filled my wallet in full
Still, weighing feathery
Pocketed in the armoires of soul
Ready for every move !!

In my lone walks under all weathers
Hidden deep under the tides of heart
Protected from sun and moon lit world
Bundled in possessiveness I shield my wallet !!

Smiles I preserve has erased my pain
Giving me zeal to live , self assured !!
But you, who gifted me this treasure
Do you even remember me ??

Sun refuses to wake
And the sky is coloured cloudy
Gentle breeze  dance and play
Caressing cheeks and hair as
Chillness comes along
Southwest direction in row…
And the earth seems ready
To quench thirst  
with the first droplet of
Heaven’s dew ……
As  the monsoon arrives
In style !!

Like light in the dark nights
As  guiding whispers in my worries
Building strength in me
To walk alone on my lonely paths
Visible only  to my aching mind
And at times to blurred thoughts
Crystal like on all days and nights
You are my everything ....
Like Sun , Moon , stars and their master!!

Known to each other ..
And seen each other..
Before the world had seen them
And even their originators had seen to know them... !!

Such is their bonding...
For promised they have to each other
While sharing the space of their mother's womb together ..
To stand as strength  and support
Firm as pillar to one another
Not just in time of need
But ...always and ever...!!

No words require to be uttered
For each to know other's mind
A look into eyes and expression  on face
Will do the rest...to the best !!

For they are  twins...
Bound with fondness for each other
Walking hand on shoulders carefully
In every step towards a future seen so infinitely bright .. ...!!
Long live the brother sister duo
With all the blessings of THE ALMIGHTY!!

Accompanying  each other
complimenting one another
walking  uphill and down hither
Taking twists and turns thither
at every nook and corners  together
a journey  without a  bother
for years down altogether..
Still on ways smoother
Than any feel of smother
With no bubbles  of  frother
But as real like a  soother..
With all imperfections like any other
For our friendship is like no other
Cheers to you , my friend forever...!!

In the golden dawn,
the sun does rise,
Casting its glow
upon the skies...
All alone....!!

With silvery brightness  
Of no complaints,
All through the day
Upon the sky smiles  and shines
All alone !!

As day bids its fond adieu
For the sun to retire...
With a colourful gleam
it sets down  from the sky..
All alone. .. !!

Somewhere, some how..
It relates  with me .
In the journey of life...
For the brilliance of standing
All alone !!

Lingering taste
Of treasured memories
Awakens soul
from tending deep  falls
keeping me on track
with all other thoughts
set aside…..

Drops of worries falling on me
sink me sick quite often
As the burden weigh unbearable !!
Pooling courage to wage a war
Make up to stand over agitation
firm confidence held high in self
threw away the fears....
letting to vanish from sight..!!
take a chance and try....
Until with colours you fly!!

When you smile at me,
I smile in return
A genuine smile
No less, no excess
For smiles reflect my truth.

If I don’t smile,
It’s not meant to offend
It simply means,
That I cannot pretend
Not every soul
deserves the warmth I send
-An undeniable truth .

For my smile speaks volumes,
Far more than words,
like a mirror of feeling,
And if it’s withheld,
Don’t be taken aback—
I just can’t pretend
It’s just a silent truth!!

Happy birthday to YOU, MY DEAR
Let this day be a new beginning
Let this day see YOU start afresh

CONFIDENTLY
Walk towards achievement and success
With good health and fitness
Devoid of any mental stress. !!

HAPPILY
Walk with family and friends YOU belong to
With those who deserve YOUR love
Walk with those who see YOU as their world
Walk cheerfully.....making YOUR life extensively beautiful !!

COURAGEOUSLY
walk towards fame and glory
With realisation of your dreams and goals
Creating envy to the ones who led you down..

POWER FULLY...
let this day mark your firm walk away from.....
All the troubles YOU faced
All stigma attached with it in YOUR mind
All the negativity holding YOU back...

AGAIN WILLFULLY
Walk towards YOUR goal...
With confidence, head held high
And walk firm on YOUR foot!!

Good luck and best wishes to YOU...Sathish!!
May GOD shower on YOU his infinite blessing
Of immense health, wealth, prosperity,
Peacefulness..
And protect YOU with a protective hand over YOU forever...
Each day and every other day!!

"You are mine I swear"
Words so fine to hear
But rarely heard
From the one who's my world !!

And
In my heart it's oft repeated words
Iouder and louder like chirps of bird
Yet... often goes unheard
And unheeded .....!!

Chillness pierces  my skin
Through every cell it touches
Yet I move along the path
Pulled by the dreams to move...
As lights shimmer to music
Of playful autumn breeze
And darkness of  night ,
darker again....
Yet...I move along....
To unknown reach.....
A destination so uncertain
Still I need to reach!!

Today is my day
Wishing myself this day
A very happy day
For today is my birthday  !!
Aug 12

My words
Are reflections
of your love

Drizzling rain
Aims for umpteen smooches
On her fairy face..
And she too plays
hide and seek
With the naughty rain...,,!!

Shimmering sharp words
Slit my throat deep
Aiding bleed profusely…
While your words dazzled 
Like a sword..
Viciously laughing at the fallen me…!!

Thousand words
Can be written
On Mother's day ...
For the thousand words
You hear everyday...
Of Mother's love..

No words for Father's day..
For, Father is not a word
But an emotion of boundless
care and love.....
That's neither spoken nor heard
But .....only sensed and felt
So much , Inexpressible by words!!

And dads are always mad
In loving their kids
With madness hidden
Deep in their hearts !!

Heaps of love
Stored midst my heart
Keenly awaits you my angel
To shower upon you
All the love and care
I had been yearning to give…

You are God’s Gift for me
For the tears I have shed…

Now  

I bow before God
With all humbleness
Holding in my hands the invaluable treasure
He has given me, in your form..
To be blessed with eternal love and peace..

Love You my Angel
Love You my Princess
Love You my Ally!!

Nothing in the world is mine
Not even my own shadow
For I try to hold my shadow
It either moves away...
Or disappears .....!!

Why then...
Talk about the one I love
Pretty well...knowing...
He will never be mine..!!
It's again ...
Nothing in the world is mine ..!!

My eyes yearn to see you
And I yearn to see my eyes
With you within it...

"pappa" i call  so...as you are to me
Though you are unaware of me
As I"m are inexistent in the universe
Longing  to be born as your unique verse ..

"Pappa", the only name I know
For my mumma carries only you
Along with me in her thoughts and dreams!!
I know you are our only world
And final word
with nothing beyond...

Thanks for the little care
You shower upon my mumma
With which she nourishes me.
Though she and me deserve more...
Yet are gratified, contented
Are we!!

Me and mumma love you pappa
And we care for your being good
Love to be born so soon
To grow up with your love and care...
Love you pappa..

Like a scar it burns within me
For letting go of possibilities
And probabilities to score
On held talents and make them grow
To seize the day and drink life’s wine,
But as of now the voice of my life
Seems much like whispers’ caught
in wind’s dance
faded and evaded the chances
of singing a symphony of joy
by making much from the precious
gift of time……!
A lingering sense of remorse
Flowing tears of regret..
colours a vibrant view on life….
To make life much more
Beautiful in my own way….!!

Thoughtful sway of emotions
Oscillates in  mind
Forging vibrations  of you
So distinct and divergent
Recurrent so cheerful
Sadness at rarity
For the  tidal waves  in me
You are the shore to touch upon
To hug on
So  fiercely  !!

Walking by the woods
Had view of tiny flowering buds
That bloomed on the sideways
As a  beauty in sight by all ways.!!
Walking with a smile
In an inimitable own style
With a talk to others for a while
Gets to step on an extra mile !!
Little moments of enjoyment
Gives a sense of fulfillment..
As there's no retirement..
For these tiny amusements !!

-Kavitha Prabhakaran

In the dark before dawn,
they sparkle like diamonds
And smile  as budding stars
along the greens of my path
filling fragrance
all through my way...
And blooming
As radiant lovely flowers
On the fall of first ray
Of morning  sun....!!

-kavitha prabhakaran

I chased and Chased my dream
Until it came true..
But
For someone...!!
And You still remain my dream

Drops of  tears
Moved down her chin
But the brightness
In her eyes..
Indicated...
She's not perturbed..
rather firm for way forward....!!
And then the smiles
A smile of sweet revenge..
And a sign of determination..
to keep away at bay the
recrudescence of any pain...
and she stepped ahead
With hope ....!!

Plethora of talents plunged in
yet  HUMILITY personified...

Timer,  a need to punch her timely counters
On wits, she hears…  HUMOUR  is an armour !!

Acted as “Indra” in school play , but she’s “Karna’ in disguise  
Plea for a flower , surprise  awaits , With garden of flowers
GENEROSITY is not a mere play !!

Stormy restless minds, Feels at ease and peace
With an ear to her words , A testimony from me, too
She's a SOOTHER by nature !!

Drawing painting singing Instrumental and vocal
All safe in her hands... No doubt she's a Nightingale's  
MULTI SKILLED sister!!

Thick or thin , bestie or not  , Enjoy absolute care and support
Yet. she calls a *****,  a *****… No matter who is who..
FEARLESS in voicing truth !

Chartered accountant in very first strike, a rarity in records
A glowing crown on charming queen
She’s BEAUTY WITH BRAINS!!

A part and parcel of  NCC uniform that marched  Rajpath R-Day parade
Monumental and enviable moment , Yet , devoid of any  enemies
She is sincerely BELOVED!!

Few words of what she is …… And who she is ....
As no hymns she sings on her , yet  misses no chance to praise others
A MOTIVATOR quite always !!

A BOLD GIRL... class lady with elegance and integrity
Standing firm on her views.. … Can bear no other name...
Than ……….HARINI …..!!

( From flash back memories of
Rajini & kavitha)

Sketches that look beautiful
And some that are painful
But few,  more colourful
And some meaning full
Stay stored in patterns
For view as in museum
But only... For self view!!

Pain inducing sketches
That had torn my heart
Would find their place in thrash
Replaced with blankness...
How I wish.....if i could  redraw!!

Then, why should I pile up in mind
The unpleasant and undesired
Sketches and frames ????
Shouldn't I erase it all
And let my mind free ???
Yes......here i do it !!!

Feathers of colours
Green, red and white
Like a bundle of flowers
I hold him in my hands
And he always feels cozy ...

At times  sits on my  head
And dances to the music
Heard...
Crooning his way all along
Expressing.....he is happy!!

When my face is dull
Changes his face to look sad
Pecking me with his tiny beaks
Makes me feel....he is there !!

It's a beauty to see him fly
But rarely is it's happening
He walks with his tiny legs
Preening at every step....

Beauty is his identity
While his claws sets his class
He is my feathery friend
My Rio......!!!

Like a lonely tree  
I feel I stand ....
At times tossing  head
to either sides...
Just to know if it's you
Who's passing by my side ....!!

Curled  on bed
Head to heels round
Views silver gaze of rising sun
In sparkling window pane
Understanding the rhymes
Of morning rooster's chimes
Awakened spirit of body and soul
Begins afresh the day
Healing wounds of yesterday !!

A fly so...
Silly on it's own
With no dreams
And nil  hopes
Flew around
Careless.....
Until caught in
web spun around
By your smile....!!

Like a soul
Runs around without foul
Covering even tiny holes
To keep family as whole
Taking every strain
Even by tilting her brain
Spreading happy fragrance
Of a dutiful soul....
Yet she is seen as a woman
Mere weak woman !!

KAVITHA ....that's my name
And I do love my name..
For it has given me fame.
And I thank my parents for the same !

As I do write what my name is..
And in short, I'm what my name is
KAVITHA....a poetry
KAVI....a poet....!!

Tiny trots with little hearts
With many a dreams
But with fear for life  
Begging before Almighty !!

Sounds of strikes
From air to heart
With their  world around
falling  apart in pain !!

Thousands rendered homeless
And many others  lifeless
Why the world is in a silence ??
Leaving them helpless !!..

Lord!! With folded hands I pray
May humanity be protected
From all tormenting threats
And
For peace and happiness to prevail!!
