Pain
Vanita vats Oct 13
Loved you deep as sea
Found myself in missing sky

Found you in core of my heart
But was missing love art

You were from my soul
But I was not your mate soul

To see pain in your eyes
to get free from my love

As you fumbled in saying
It was one sided love of mine

I let you go
Gave you way silently

To find a place
Which I never wanted

Don't know whether you
found your face
But I am still in pain

Smiling willow
Vanita vats Oct 2
Talking to weeping willow
Through her poems at night
Enjoyed and appreciated

Smiling willow was sleeping
Made moon her pillow
Covered herself with star
Studded night blanket

Spreading pure and innocent sparkles

I was sitting beside and
enjoying her beauty
In my dream land
On same plateform

GRATITUDE
Vanita vats Sep 15
A small neem plant was grown
by an old man in his late eighties
Outside the boundry wall of his house

He looked after  it everyday
He grew some cactus for its safety

Neem plant was growing into a tree
Old man was becoming more elderly

Old man took few leaves every day
To keep himself fit

After few more years
Old man was unable to come down
From first floor to ground floor

One day I saw old man was talking to tree
"Now you are too strong
But I am too weak to walk"

I saw neem tree grew in more height
It increased its branches to reach the railing of old man's house

To my surprise one day
Old man was plucking the leaves
From first floor of his house

Neem tree was showing its gratitude
By offering its leaves to its saviour.

MODALITY

You are very polite
As light as feathers

You have ability to bear
As deep as maire

You hold happiness and sorrow with same reaction

Keep on working with same passion

You believe in spirituality

Multiple universes
Vanita vats Sep 28
I live in a universe of my kind
Which is ruled by me
Ruled for me

No one can enter without
my permission

Monk like vibrations create
A new world of imagination

Make the place well cordinated
With the other thoughts in harmony

Some evil thoughts
de-vibrate ,collide, derail
the smooth functioning of
the brain

A constant war between these two

Every one's brain is it's own
Kind of universe

Give strength to the concept of multiple universes

Sometimes

Feels
Hands are tied
Mind is blocked

Soul is caged
Looks silently blankly getting drowning in the flow of time
To meet somewhere to someone to free the caged soul

FINAL DESTINATION
Vanita vats Sep 14
Life without hurdles and choices
Is not full of royces

You are in the world of two faces
Right and wrong
Good and bad
Sadness and happiness
Peace and war
So many more chores

These go with you like your shadows
You cannot make them go away
Until you trapped in a total dark way

Rivers don't have a plan
To follow a particular span

It starts at begining and keeps on moving
Keeps on changing

It has to move on
To make life on earth full on
Flora and fauna goes on

In the end it reaches its final destination

It is not important of your changes you made

Important is its journey and final destination where you stayed.
Dedicated to my son to whom I lovingly use to call ladoo Gopal

At your work place
At your home
Keep yourself ready
For relay race

Baton is given
Start your mission

Not to bother
Previous is slower

Not to worry
Who will be winner
Become a flight responder

Life is a relay race
Put all your efforts
At your best pace

Many races of life have been won
Many races of life have been lost
By the quality of baton to  post

CRYSTAL CLEAR
Vanita vats Sep 24
That I know
You were student
I was teacher
In the same school
On the same way

I was math teacher
Teaching in higher classes
You were a cute kid in primary classes

I may not remember all
But I must went in your classes
As a substitute teacher

Must had not seen in your eyes
But must went through the scent of your persona

Many incidents teachers pass through
But these are the students who could recall those stories
they went through

The seeds of your cuteness
Left impression in that invisible world of existence

Almost after twenty five years
Fine roots of those personalities get entangled
To complete the circle of timeless time

That I remembered in a crystal clear way
How did you call me "ma"
respectfully
In those few conversations

I proud to see you
Wearing a crown
Embedded with diamonds
Of many successes

Thank you for calling
Math teacher of your school

टिक टिक
करती एक अर्न्तध्वनि
सुना रही है
एक अतृप्त प्यास बुला रही है।

दीपक की भातिं कुछ जल रहा है
जिसकी महक मन को खींच रही है।

सब कुछ तो ठीक है
फिर क्या ठीक नहीं है
जो असंतुष्टि की सीमा पर खींच रही है।

जीवन की मोमबत्ती जल रही है
समय पिघल रहा है
मन असंतोष में जल रहा है।

कुछ तो छूट रहा है
कहीं मन की गहरी छाप तो नहीं दिख रही
कहीं अनंत यात्रा के पदचिह्न तो नहीं दिख रहे।

कहीं अनंत नाद की प्रतिध्वनि तो प्रश्नचिह्न
नहीं खड़ा कर रही।

Where they fabricate fable

They speak evil about others

Then they make you their topic
Start making your persona toxic

Ash

Ash
I found ash
To rub on my skin
To hide all my beauty skills
No other mask needed
to safe myself
No tension of world's speculations
Long dead locks touching
earth
To make these a blanket to
sleep or make a head lock

Reached on a tough rock high mountain with all my efforts
Alone and alone only my own

Live in a small mouthed cave
To find my share of piece of peace
Dead ash is rubbed on future ash
No matter looked ugly or bad

AN UNINVITED GUEST
Vanita vats Sep 17
Kids came back from school
I was late in cooking food

Swiftly
I washed grapes
Served to my children sitting on bed

I switched on TV
As they enjoy Tom and Jerry

Sharing grapes and making fun

Soon my son realised
Someone strange sitting next to them

Sharing grapes and watching TV

Both became statue
Fear and tear in eyes

On the verge to cry
Could not understood what to try

I whispered
Leave room slowly
Leave room quietly

Both were holding me tightly

I took a sigh of relief
To see my children safe

It was huge male monkey
An uninvited guest!

We destroyed their jungle
Which made their life mingle

It made their life miserable
Can't we make it reversible?

BUTTERFLY
Vanita vats Sep 25
Yes I remembered
I entered in the cocoon of that dark hollowness

To runaway from the noises
Inside and outside

All was what
Like mind arrest

Nothing was visible
Nothing was feasible

Only a vaccum
Neither could I hear
Nor could I speak

An unending weeping
Which made me creeping

I saw you tapping
I saw your lip sync
I saw your signs of calling

You kept on waiting
Till I started responding

My cocoon was not broken forcefully
You allowed me to come out peacefully

See dear
Now I am not crawling like pupa
I am ready to take out nectar
I am converted into a butterfly of nature

REVERSE FOOD REACTION
Vanita vats Sep 21
Namibia and Zimbabwe government
Took strange decision for food supplement

They decided to cull elephants
For their betterment

They want to feed their hungry people
To make wild life *******

Wild life need protection
Where is love and affection?

It is friction between man and animal
They think they are fantastical

Situation is alarming
We are destroying our food chain rapidly

Global warming is increasing
Ozone layer is depleting

This is going unending
What if no wild animal  is left?

Man will eat man
Man will become maneater
Then starts a reverse food reaction

TIME TRAVELLER
Vanita vats Sep 15
If I were a time traveller
I would not go to correct the mistakes I did

I can do it without being discoverer
Not required to be a time traveller

No one can change the past
But can change the future
By not repeating the same error

If you believe in God
There is no question to be stuck
Between the people who don't want to see you ahead

See yourself carefully
You are in hands of God

You only are watching
The footprints in rear mirror

Mistaken those footprints of people
Who wants you to keep behind

But these are footprints of God
Who came running to embrace you in your time of need

Sitting on the roof
Just in silence

Looking towards sky
No moon no star
A calm descending nightfall

Few fire flies moved around
I caught two of them
Made a chandelier
With both my hands

It made me raise from land
I was spell bound with
Beauty spread in and out

A cup of tea
When I arrived at home
from my work place
My hubby was sad
"What had happened? "

I lost my spectacles since morning
Neither I could read newspaper nor I could write poetry

"Don't worry I will find"
tried to console
I checked all pockets of his shirt and pant

I looked in almirah
I looked in fridge
I searched in washroom
I checked in kitchen

All in vain
I gave a pause

"If I find your specs
You will make a cup of tea for me  which he never"

Again I searched
under bed
on bed
I unfolded  the blanket
Which he used at night
It dropped from there

He picked up and smiled at me
                   AND
       I WON A CUP OF TEA

Don't judge people
By listening from others

Don't spread rumour
If someone is passing in your ear

Be a good listener
When other is in fright

Be a good motivator
If one is looking towards your eyes

Hold someone's hand
When there is emotional breakdown.

Embrace someone
When one needs love and care

"There is plan B to activate
for my final journey"

Grand father told us
He went to hospital for final
Check up

He told doctor to give him form for ***** donation

Doctor said
"There is no use of your old
and torn organs
They will not work for any

Now you will take my body
To my birth place Jind

Where I spent my golden days
In a large joint family
Till age ten not aware
Who was my real mother

Where I stole butter
Hidden from my eyes

I kept alive fire at fire place
To produce hukka to my father in winter days

I came running to get
Rope and tools
When asked by father in fields

My duty was to carry bunddle of grass on head
To feed our hungry cows

I was never given hard work
As my rest six brothers were stout

Where we celebrated
all fervor together

Where my mother took her last breath
I want to sleep in her lap
on my mother land

She doesn't find threads to
get connected on HP

These days inclined to act and drama in youth fest

Our interest doesn't match much
She is more idealistic
I am blended with practical
aspect of life

May be due to the difference
of life spent
May be due to values inherited in soul

Its fine
She has her  own wings  and intuition
to fly in right direction

Prays to God lead her through His light and love
