If wind asks my whereabouts!

If wind asks my whereabouts!
Slowly then
Open every door
Of my silent home,
Saying; by all means;
Come and see
I’m there in everything
In my home!
And all my thoughts
Are buried within me!
A scene
Posted February 1, 2019
on:
Wrapped in night’s covering
I,
Lay silently;
Sadness peeping through window,
A hazy dream dribbling in eyes
Lonesomeness moves in silence,
Sleep is restless of silence
And the Moon,
Tired of the setting around
Resting in the gray cloud…

Chechnya

On the corner of the lane
In ashen grim evening
The freezing wind stopped
For a moment—-
Glanced at the shivering children
Singing them the frosty lullaby
Covered them with snow quilt
And you!
You’re so weird
Call them snow-angels

On the stairway of December

On the stairway of December
When winter wearily and slowly
Steps on the stairs of December
A figure wrapped in fog and
Lonesomeness,
asks a black stone to get up.
Why wait lie there
In gloominess and UN noticed.
Accept the truth that
No rain can wash the mayhem of
Misfortune

Do you know—–?

on:Do you know—–?
The velvet touch of
Your half-finished love
When quivers on my palms
Even today
The lines on my palm disrupt;
Silently then whisper to me,
Half finished, love, partial dreams
Uncompleted delights are
The spheres of agony
Around which bodies get sapped
Moving around them
Do you know why?
It’s in their fate to do so

I’ve to write
Appealing love poems
In your name!
I’ll insert your touch
In my poetry in such a way
That the fearful girl in you
Who’s scared of love?
Becomes herself the love badge
And writes on it that—
Love is not scared of anything
But
Lonesomeness
YOU——-

on:You——
Have you ever seen eyes in waiting?
No, you’ve not!
I have seen
Can you sense the agony of waiting?
When entering the body
Turns all the veins blue;
Then the eyes die before the body does
But, you know the eyes waiting for———
Never actually perish after expiration!
They only get veiled in fog and mist.
You can’t envision all this
You can’t either feel it
To wait, isolation, fear and sadness
Are the words, not found in your dictionary!
You——–

It’s agony!

It’s agony!
Pain is the overseer
Of living corpses,
Of floating tears in wet eyes
Of clapping of small hands
Of the mother’s portrait
Without a frame; by a painter’s pen.
The pain rules everywhere
Pain springs out from all
Mountains, meadows, vales
Rivers, winds and dales;
Pain dances all over
It’s all agony

Grief of a grain picking bird,
Posted December 26, 2018
on:The grief of a grain-picking bird,
O Bird! Who can pick your
Tears from your eyes, while
You’re busy picking grains;
You don’t even know
When someone casts the evil eye
Or capture and imprison you,
For all your life;
You’ll forget to tweet and chant,
You’re innocent Bird!
You dream while eating grains
At times to fulfill your dreams
When the chilled tears drop on
From dreary eyes
On the land of your fateful heart;
A forest of sadness grows there
The trees bear fruit of only grief;
But you innocent Bird!
You are unaware of it all
And will never know
