INFINITY
Vanita vats Sep 23
Age is not your boundry
Age is not the limit for your success

Age can't stop you for discovery
Age can't stop your artery
to play sport of archery

As you are home for
Age less soul till infinity

Your smile

Reflecting those beauties

Spilled all over to make it yellow bright

DONATE
Vanita vats Sep 16
Grand father knows
His end is near
But he has no fear

He prepared his will
Taught me few skills

When I die
Don't cry
Take me to PGI

Donate my body
My liver is right
My kidneys are bright
My eyes have sight

Don't waste time
If organs not chime

Still it will be good for research
How this old man go for long life search

When they return my body
Take me for electric cremation

I don't want to cut down any tree
To make my body free

HELLO POETRY
Vanita vats Sep 21
I am here
In this world of poets
From last few days

I tried to write
Tried to show my skills
Some liked
Some loved
Some commented

It gave me boost to write
Motivated to make it right

I read their poems
I tried to find their depth

They had large viewership
They got trended
They got number of comments

Their philosophy is high
Difficult to measure their sky

They have depth in intension
No need to mention
It is already on  HP

I got afraid
I am not writing in their way
They are good writers
They are great poets and poetesses

Where is my place?
Will I have my face?

Inner voice replied
You get a ship to sail
You get wings to fly

No need to measure the height of their sky
No need to measure the depth of their ocean

You just enjoy your flying
You keep on sailing

When you get tired
Sit on the mast of your ship

Enjoy their writings
Enjoy their poems

Keep on sailing on your ship
I am thankful to famous poet and writer Atul sir for inspiring me to join HP when I shared one poem

Rays of Hope
Vanita vats Sep 19
Raise yourself from the clouds of problems
Raise yourself from the clouds of sadness

Take out yourself from the hollowness of inferiority

Don't let these emotions you to swallow
Which keeps you hurting
Which keeps you bleeding
Which keeps you crying

Come on
Look towards sky
Rays of hope are smiling

How things end premature

Not for any one else
It was me who carried you both in me

Emotional set back for many days

KALEIDOSCOPE
Vanita vats Sep 22
Kaleidoscope makes
Beautiful and unimaginative structures

Children play joyfully and show to their friends

They see in light
They try in dark

I made my kaleidoscope
With broken bangles

They displayed unique patterns
Which always fascinated
and captured

I took out those broken  bangles
To take out few stunning art of angles

But I couldn't find any art
It was an empty part

Those were only reflections of broken bangles
Which were creating amazing patterns

Same as broken heart is more imaginative and creative
In the kaleidoscope of life

These are broken bangles and broken hearts

Which creates a piece of art

GOLDEN RING
Vanita vats Sep 14
You promised me a golden ring
I gave you my silver ring

You brought me in a lavish house
I was missing my airy house

You gave me food in golden palate
I was missing food on leaf palate

You gave me bed of poses
I was missing my bed on roses

You gave me air tickets to fly
I was missing road side sky

You gave me every thing of your choice
I was finding my voice
missed in your noise

You gave me many coins
I was struggling place to join

You took my wings of expression
I looked for my reflection

You made me an object of museum
I want you to return my freedom
Dedicated to one friend finding her freedom

Mother for one day
Vanita vats Sep 26
Two days were left
For my marriage
Every one was busy

Relatives were talking
They were joking

Some were cooking
Ready for feeding

Dustbin was full
I took the bin
Went to clear the tin

Suddenly I stopped
One life was breathing
On the heap of dumping

Too weak to walk
In state of gasping

I went back running
Brought a basket of canning
With a cotton clothing

To give cushion
To a young puppy

My relatives disagreed  for keeping
If it died
It might bring misfortune
"Throw it out
From where you brought"

My mother said nothing
I fed the life drop by drop
With a dropper

Till evening to our surprise
It came out from basket
It was moving

At night
It went to its bamboo house
We covered it with soft piece of cotton dhoti
To keep it warm
In that winter night

I checked twice
During that night
It was sleeping right

At early morning
I tried to take it out
But it was motion less
And breathing less

Every one told
To dump the body in dumping place

But how could I?
I was mother for one day

We buried not in hurried
In the soil
With few prayers
To make soul free
To rest in peace

Welcome
Vanita vats Oct 3
Sitting under a Jamun tree
Having a bundle of paper
To check and recheck

Birds sound melodious
Fresh cool air was comfortable

I was distracted by
A squirrel and a bird
Playing together

Squirrel climbed up the tree
She brought few grains free
Put on a green platter

Bird came flattering
to eat   grains eagerly
both were playing leisurely

Left me thinking
Do they welcome as
we do with our family and friends

Answer to Apology
Vanita vats Oct 14
Apology is a good gesture
Of yours to mend the bond

Broken bonds always leave
behind the roots
Possibility to arise the love from shaken life

Do this before it get dry
It will soften the belt
Warmth of your love
melt the frozen lake

Monk
Vanita vats Oct 19
Daily single boiled food
In one unshaped bowl
No other utensil is accepted
One old mug with broken holder
Left unused by children
is used to take liquids
When eat his food
No single grain is left
Cleaned as if washed

Wrap in single lower cloth
During all summers

Do most of his work
Without taking much help
No money he accepts for his help

Croons his prayers
to soften his old age pains

Wish to extend his life
For his son to give him time
to serve him
So that he should not have
guilt
Could not serve as he was mostly out for work
Live like a monk
is my father in law by luck

Yes man
Vanita vats Oct 15
Yes man
Is an endangered man
Will go very far with you
Become a boss one day

Can never become a mentor
Will not be admired
Used by controller

Will not inspire
Put every one in hook and corner whenever required

Leaders are true and genuine
Raised from tough life and experience

Emotions
Vanita vats Oct 20
Mehandi art on both hands
Revive my olden days
Aroma of it stir the emotions
Settled in the bottom

Reminds me of my mother in law
Kept on waiting
Sitting in the park in front
The moment she saw
gave me call to make a bowl
full of tea
Took each sip with taste and proud
In front of her age group friends
Told me to touch the feet
of each of her friend
I also obeyed to make her
happy
She felt so proud
and told her friends
"See my daughter in law listen to me"
I smiled with them to take
all her blessings.
She also sometimes showed
her authority
By taking my side
by scolding her son and
husband in front of me
I miss her today
I lost her on 25 September 2012

FRIENDSHIP
Vanita vats Sep 30
A friendship
Based on shared advantage
Don't take them for granted

Keeps on changing faces
Go towards profit places

Better friendship is
Sharing and caring

Your spouse and children
Who live in your kingdom

More you give
More you will be appreciated

Best friendship shares
Mutul respect
Which need not to be perfect

They hear you
When you are silent

They read you
When you are in pain

They are special friends
Keeps you on high trends

Lovely poems
Vanita vats Oct 27
After so many days
I read your poems
With heart and mind in line
Not to presume and assume
Reading line by line
Opening layer by layer
To enjoy each bite
To reveal every ride
To appreciate those threads
With which woven
Each Beautiful piece of write
Today in morning I read Atul Kaushal's poems
I really enjoyed.

I heard from
Grandpa in his stories
Telling but not preaching
his teachings through
a new weaving

Told me one day
There is one gaurd
Invisible and sitting
On your shoulder

Taking pictures of your
Every act good or bad
Keep it as evidence

For you can't deny
When you will be given
Judgement for your all deeds

So remember
You are watched
Every single minute
Chitragupta is a photographer
Who make reports of our deeds
with pictures

LIFE CYCLE

He was sitting on wheel chair
He was with his heir

On the way to become a skeleton
With very low Keratin

Looking here and there with dim eyes
Holding his chair tight

His son was standing at back
Giving him soft tap

His grandson was standing behind his father's back

It gave a sight
"This is how a life cycle rise"

MOTHERLY LOVE
Vanita vats Sep 20
As I stepped out of my house
A kitten was crying fiercely

Frightened and scared
Calling it's mother loudly

Making so much noise
Displaying defensive postures
Situation was really horrifying

A dog was trying to pound
To make kitten in  its bound

Suddenly I saw
A female monkey jumped from tree
Standing in front of predator

In spurr of moment
She picked up kitten

Climbed up tree
Embraced it in her lap
Holding  near her chest
Soothing and comforting

It was breathtaking

Motherly love in her
Played a great role

Role model for us
Who were standing around
Few were watching
Few were busy in making reel.

SANT
Vanita vats Sep 20
When whirlpool of thoughts cease
Ocean of your persona is like peaceful sea
Aura of persona creates magnetic attraction

When tornedo for all cries quit
Then cool air falls
Thoughts now give no trouble

Cool breeze from your ocean
Starts blowing from you  to others

This is the process of making a sant in you.

We are giving her time and space

Dhaka is objecting her presence
Showing its grievance

We are nothing new solving

Officials says
"we cannot turn away our old friend
Till  the worst situation comes to an end"

REWARD
Vanita vats Sep 23
My exam was over

I revised it three times
I made it sure
No question was left unanswered

Still so much time was left
Few pages in my answer sheet were blank

I wrote one poem
I drew Tom and Jerry
I made few colourful patterns

Time was over
I submitted my sheet joyfully

When I was returned my answer sheet
I got cross on them
Many signs of question marks with red pen

I got above average marks
I showed my creative art

But I got unpleasant remark
"Should not I get reward?

Which is lost somewhere

Why
Vanita vats Oct 28
Why
Pale colour
Agony and anguish
Reacting and rebelling
Earthing cries
Vaporising tears in sky
To find a place to sigh
for sleepless nights
For dark circles drawn under eyes
For all rumours around
For what had lost
telling stories
Cool air above and air bubbles
Turns the salty vapours into
soft ice flakes
to come down to spread white sheet on the land of heart
Slows down all emotions and normalise the blue sky

From all odds and even

Love Life
Vanita vats Oct 18
Spending time with your love make you feel as swinging on crecent moon

You give her ride on the swing of hanging moon
You enjoy each movement of
to and fro

From there refracting the
spectrum of colourful dreams from the prism of moon

Melting away all concerns
Diffuses all time bubbles

Life of love time is as short as water bubbles
But memories are as long as
moon light rays
