Streak of hope

I see a streak ray of hope,
When a little ant fights to lift a big grain,
A ray of sunlight trying to add light to Neon lit offices,
Lover hoping to meet his lady love at least for a minute,
An Indian woman trying to educate her girl child,
Widow hoping her husband alive for a second to express her love,
I see a steak of hope.

I see a streak of hope,
When a software engineer struggles with errors in his program,
An orphan child waiting for a Christmas gift,
A deer running away from a hungry lion,
Old beggar with tears filled eyes looking at a man for generous alms,
An ailing man praying for another day of life,
I see a streak of hope.

I see a streak of hope,
When aged parents in old age homes talk of their sons abroad,
A farmer looking up the sky after plowing his little land,
An issueless couple visiting a kindergarten,
Life prisoner’s parole being accepted for a week,
A dog waiting for bones after his master finishes biriyani,
I see a streak of hope.

I see a streak of hope,
When a little sapling breaks open tight soil to live,
A baby forcing its way to see the world from a womb,
Crippled puppy trying to walk its way to food,
A dumb man trying to convey his argument,
Fisherman struggling to reach shore after his catch,
I see a streak of hope.

I see a streak of hope,
In every little things around me,
From humans to animals, from richest to the impaired,
Life runs only on hopes,
For there is nothing beyond hoping for the best,
Hope your way, the rest would follow you.

For behind every gloomy dark night,
There is and will be a bright sunny day…

Where are you?

Are you the only resort? Why does it happen? Where did you go? When troubles tortured me? When I cried out of pain? Where were you? Why should I seek you? Why? When like a butterfly Bubbling with joy of colours Flying spreading my joy You admired me Even gave me some colours A bright smile Like the sun shine Where are you now? When like a dew drop Shining with the utmost pleasure On a little blade of grass A small corner of mine Disseminating a smile On every face that came across Delight of mine own Where are you now? When like the white waves Sparkling bubbles Snow white with azure blue Touching every one who come near Delightful bliss all around You played with me Full of joy Where are you now? When like a nymph Sitting on a little purple flower My fragrance along with yours Gracing on beautiful nature Ever green beauteous Thou enjoy with me Pleasurable memories Where are you now? When like the little drop of rain I touched everyone Played around with all Ambrosia for many of them A

Her Dance

Image
Young moon shining cool and bright, Hypnos singing lullaby with his harp, Form of my partner’s loud snores, Chill breeze from my air conditioner, And my soft feather bed, Thus, are my comfort to slumber.   As I rest and dream, Like a princess with glass shoes, And beautiful gowns, There she stands like a beast, As a hassle uninvited, But prompt.   Nay! not a smothering snake or a ghoul, It’s mine own, Without which a women’s beauty is lost, Like wine, ages with time, Long or short, brown or black, rough or smooth, Always a thing of pride, for a woman.   My mane, when all sleeps blissfully with me, One bunch stands, And dances its heart out to my fan’s tunes, Though her stage is always fixed, She lands on my temple or nose, Tickles me to watch her dance. My relentless attempts to stop her, Always a failure and poof! vanishes my sleep, And along with it my glass shoes and gowns, Alas! Wish I could stop her!

  Merciless World Delicious and flavourful Biriyanis, Chinese noodles to Italian pizzas, South Indian vada to meals, Malabar pulav to north Indian Panner Labadar, Sweet jeelabi or mouth-watering gulab jamuns, Tall ice creams in glasses or cool milk shakes.   I have it all, All flavours and flagrances, To tease my gastronomic indulgence, And check my level of patience.   Like Indian rishis, I resist temptation, Day in and day out, it’s the same, I sigh and smell the aroma before I hand it.   My imagination runs wild, How would they enjoy it! May be uncover delicately, like virgin’s clothes, Who unfurls all the world’s pleasure, In just a bowl or two.   Like a betrayed lover, Sighing over the culmination of his beloved, I long and part with all that I have, Day in and day out, Not minding my rumbling stomach, Mercilessly pick it away, not even a morsel to offer me, They call me the FOOD DELIVERY MAN .
