Looking forward to a beginning
Everyday will be written a new saga
Few, we shall carry forward
After the ellipsis
Much happens even during a hiatus
We are stretched ahead
Time pulls us away to a new realm
New vistas and landscape
Fresh flowers and aroma
Old vases shall hold them
With much pride
Amidst the new rooms
Every wall has a door
Welcoming the new beginning
Old and new protagonists
Have taken the pledge
To give a new twist to the saga
Sometime we take a turn
Allowing us to reclaim
That was elusive in the past
Fresh ink
Shall fill the void on paper
New chapter, new beginning
Story shall continue
With renewed charm
Miracle do happen
If you believe

Oh what joy.
A little boy.
Jacob so happy.
A cheerful chappie.

To my great nephew, born September 2014. SO CHEERFUL!!!
I write because it feels right
in the process of writing
I am creating something

the Divine spark lives in me
and comes to life in the act of creation

even during my darkest suicidal hours,
I could not abandon poetry and art.
the act of creating and destroying
saved me

the process of writing is like my life
I build and destroy,
and in the process
try to grow from the experience

Tongues
<><><><><><>
Along the fence horses trot
The leafy shadows slowly turn
I look up from a steaming ***
A world ripe with unconcern
Wild grasses bent with dew
And every bird's askew feather
I push into the grey-pink sky
This is mountain weather

Sergio Aguero:
He’s my hero.
Title-winner against QPR,
The man sure is a Super Star.
