poetry

do I need

to write poetry

to reach out to you

rules… haiku

a life of no rules

except what the nature asks of us

ah! such a distant dream

I love you

say you love me

for these three words

will always matter

want

what is it I want?

that would give me happiness

and loads of mental peace

summer siesta

the mild snoring of my Lhasa

the white noise of the air-con

a perfect summer siesta

summer rain

summer rain

the street dogs too

caught unawares

you only live once

stuck in the pandemic

spending time with loved ones

you only live once

wish

live the moment

wish for the stars and the moon

and they shall be yours

pink moon

alone on the terrace

gazing at the pink moon

thoughts of you abound

Mother Nature

enough was enough

the Mother Nature contemplated

and kept the sunshine to herself
