Visions of a Forest Dream














A dark canvas with the picture of a withering tree 
Its branches melt away into pink and purple hues
Light rays break down into bits of diamonds
The scattered bits mingle with the colours
Colours that dance along the wind like sea waves

Pearl droplets rise from the wet grass 
And float in the air like bubbles of dew. 
Glowworms lit up the dark alleys of the forest
Like twinkling stars on a maiden's hair 

The forest is dark and wild
Its long and twisty roads,
Like the passage to a woman's heart
The deeper you go, 
You lose your way

Once you enter her world,
You are never the same again
You lose yourself 
To find something new.

The forest is full of sounds and mysteries
She waits for those who seek them...

Those are my trips...


When I was away, yet here.
My body, mind and soul scattered around the world.
I was listening, or maybe not.
The conversations went on with my hmmms
I was somewhere, yet nowhere in particular

The mind flaps her wings and takes me away.
Being there at two places at the same time,
Those are my trips ...

The Young & The Wild...


You wander like a nomad in your youth. You follow the wind, see seasons change...
And then, marvel at nature's secrets.
They tell you to stick to the lines,
But you're quite the mischievous hopper, aren't you?

With the heart of a wild child,
You laugh at all those falls.
Even with the pain, you muster up some courage.

Perhaps, the boundaries are meant to protect
But the world beyond fascinates you...

You create your own directions, The walls can't hold you back.

Sometimes, I wonder...















Woke up to the call of a dull afternoon,
An afternoon in the plains,
While, my heart yearned for the hills

As I looked outside my window,
A tender fall of a raindrop catches my eye.
Like a scene from a half dreamt dream;
Like a poem in the making,
It speaks…

With a still gaze, I try to soak it all in
The assortment of greens, reds and pinks in my garden,
A solitary white flower blooming in the wind,
Birds chirping one at a time, occasionally joining into a duet
The fading in and out sound of a hovering airplane,
Adding that tint of urban culture to this isolated fancy world of mine…

This single moment,
A union of so many voices;
The coming together of so many stories...

Yes, this ordinary life.
A coexistence of worlds that run in parallel
With or without, our knowing

Sometimes, I wonder…
Don’t you wonder too?

My Adventure has only begun...






I have a dream and it comes to life at night...
The day always came with its own plans,
So there came the nights, to wander and explore

I want to run on the grassy fields;
Where the morning dew caresses my bare feet,
The gentle wind escorts me ahead
As I slowly picked up its pace,
We made music as we raced…

No rush, no track of time,
Didn’t matter who came first…
For we didn’t want to stop, did we?

The light was frail, on and off,
The Moon romanced behind the clouds…
The passion lit skies threw its thunders,
And the sky started melting as she blushed…
It drizzled down and wet the lands;
I’ve always wanted to be drenched like this…

So I kept running,
My adventure has only begun…
