A tasty alphabets
are prepared and
healthy words are
blended in the kitchen
phrase are toasted
and sentences are
well cooked in
Safana's Poetry Kitchen
Alleviate the cold in one
Refurbish blood in the vein
Could you at least wait
One more minute
It won't hurt
Listen
There's always a story in the mind of a poet
Still can't tell where love lies
If it's inside & the heart is the source
Or out & the looks & gestures say it all
One last smile
As I hold your chin
One last time
Reminisce and laugh together
For it ain't forever
A new door has opened
A story that won't have you in it even when I want you
Selfish is not what I want to be
On this bed as I say bye
I will forever have your memory
Even in the after life.

It's getting difficult day by day
To cope up with this species
Even though I am one of them
I still don't want to be the one
I feel like being the dust or a blue whale...
Rather than being a human.

The reality is lost under the masks
Masks that cover evil smiles
Smiles that can break you...
into millions and millions of  pieces.
The good ones have become rare like vaquitas.

Khaab
The blue whale sat in a cornor of the ocean
As she had seen centuries change
Everyone came...evolved....and then withered away
But she was still there...
Her daughters were bigger than her
She couldn't believe her tiny whalies
had become responsible mother whales...just like her.
Did her mother feel the same way?
As she saw centuries change...as she saw her grow
As she saw her playing and singing songs across the ocean.
Did she feel the same?
The blue whale missed her mother
As I heard her singing supermarket flowers
sitting in my boat...counting stars.
