Melody and Candies




Light rains turning heavy,
Dew drops turning into bubbles,
The wisps of condensed moisture,
Are stacks of cotton balls!
And when you come along,
Imaginations seem reality,
The monsoon brings snow-flakes
And there are Dream-falls!


Pitter-patter comes down the life,
And I absorb each drop.
How beautiful when the sun shines,
And the ponds hold singing frogs!


A tip here, a tap there.
I compose a rhyme.
Even the sourest and the most bitter,
Taste like sweet-lime!


A puddle here, a paper-boat there,
We weave the sky into a blue-shawl.
In the warmth of nature and the frozen dreams,
In smiles and tears, plays the melody of life's song!

In Search, In Vain.

There are the stars in a cluster,
Wild flowers in the wild forest.
There are the leaves, hyper-sensitive,
And, there are those who never understand.

There are so many of the coffee beans in each cup,
Ground first, then brewed.
There is such a rich aroma around them,
And, there are those who never understand.

There are millions of shades and a multitude of colours,
Soothing to the eyes, and infuriating to the mind.
There are thousands of shapes, symmetrical or not,
And, there are those who never understand.

There is so much to see, so much to give.
There is beauty to behold, love to be sowed.

And, there are those,
Who never understand.
