The vibration of sympathetic strings Disturbing oxygen atoms in the humid night Below, the cacophony of humanity Beats a tattoo for the soaring melodies – The raga of the metropolis Articulated with train horns Lovers spats And racing ambulances – On the gilded musical wings I soar Far above the airport approach pattern And the …
Frost nips a green shrub Wind tousling its stalks Gone are summer’s warm rays The dark of winter forebodes – Yet on this morning In the face of rain, wind, and the march of seasons It stands resolute Upright in its frosty countenance – And should a stray ray fall upon its white tipped leaves …
In distant verdant hills Where morning breaks After night laid Uncomfortable in her moonlight bed Tossed and turned on humid eddies Dreamless through celestial progressions – I see her laying, sleepless Body kissed by lunar rays White linen loose about her Her eyes stare, tired, at the ceiling fan Equating its futile spins With her …
