Emma
In the gray it dwells,
shades of sorrow, hues of joy,
eyes paint what they feel.

Between dark and light,
truth bends to our weary hearts,
colors shift with moods.

A storm clouds the mind,
turning clear skies into ash,
world shaped by our fears.

Yet hope’s golden glow,
softens shadows, clears the haze,
brightens all we see.

Feelings weave the veil,
through which life unfolds its face,
mine lies in between.
Sometimes I don't feel or see colour's rather shades of in-between black and white.
He eats at my soul with a lover's slow hand,

Each bite a hymn, each wound carefully planned.

His silence, a gospel, his shadow a prayer,

I light every candle, but he's always there.

A feast in the dark where no one can stand.
झूठ बोलने से पहले
थोड़ा थूक गटक गया
तो क्या बुरा किया ?
कम से कम
मैं एक क्षण के लिए
सच को तो जिया।

यह अलग बात रही--
जिसके खिलाफ
अपने इस सच का
पैंतरा फैंका था ,
वह अपनी अक्लमंदी से बरी हुआ,
मुझे अक्लबंद सिद्ध कर विजयी रहा।


सच्ची झूठी इस दुनिया में
आते हैं बेहिसाब उतार चढ़ाव
आदमी रखे एक अहम हिसाब--
किस राह पर है समय का बहाव ?
जिसने यह सीख लिया
उसने जीवन की सार्थकता को समझ लिया।
उसने ही जीवन को भरपूर शिद्दत से जिया।
और इस जीवन घट में आनंद भर लिया।

I am
so
grateful

For the
stunning beauty
that my eyes
can
            still
                      see...
I am so grateful
that
       LIFE
has been mostly good
and that I can
            still
                   give thanks,  
each   and  every   single    day

                WITH A GRATEFUL HEART.
Let your poetry flow
as the ceaseless river
each poem a heart-beat
of your enchantment and wonder
In the furnace of my mind
I burn to light up the world
With heat expanding a universe.
In pages unfolding I whisper to "Open,
Come in and see.  Inside you can find me
And so many fascinating things."
Expanding, expanding, and hurtling forward
Our world is there before us all.  If only
People would not think so small.
