Poem93. Life Till ...

Going Back and forth
left and right
at times
Still.

Thought I had control
with ties around
like a web
Spider.

Strong wind blew
web tangled
getting out
No way.

Didn't think of death
had fighting spirit
stood calm
Untied.

May come storm issues
have spirit and calm
shows the way
Clear.

Poem92.Standing There

Standing There 

 

Confined to my bubble
I was just flying
that space for me- the world.
was so busy, to look out understand.

When accidentally
bubble hit on a sharp edge
fell off from dream
with open eyes ,the reality.

Am I dead or now alive
should I get up or
will move automatically??
Still standing there stupefied.

Poem91.Remnants

                                                                     Remnants

Remnants for you,

but a treasure for me,
remembrance of gone days.

 childhood spent around Grandpa

  the star of my small eyes.
 red sofa, his favorite spot .

Sitting there so majestic

used to tell mighty stories,

and reading was a craze.

With broad outlook, clever so calm

never heard shouting but was strong

                                                         ready solutions just in hand.

That were days so filled with joy,

 love, affection there in air,
he, so proud  to be my gpa.

Now also when I go there

hear him talking as before,

Hallucination might be, but for me just real.

Poem90.Gratitude

Gratitude

Your handiwork pulls Oh! God,

each second towards you,

with perfection, the beauty,

melody of the life around.

How cleverly have you kept

the mist on the leaf top.

When the rain drops down

sweet music, tempts to dance.

Butterflies swirl around

green,yellow wish to touch.

The songs of birds makes me smile
takes me somewhere in a bliss.

Lush green paddy fields

laughing shooing in the breeze.

My heart goes out towards you

with so much love and gratitude.

Poem89.A Step

A Step

Can you hear me? Where are you?" The search for you has been ongoing, echoing through my inner world.

My voice resonates loudly, amidst green valleys and vast mountains of the mind.

Riding on thoughts, I've looked everywhere, yet found only pandemonium.

Confused momentarily, uncertain of what's right or wrong, unable to decide.

Now, taking a step forward, hoping it leads straight to you. Oh God, when will we meet?

Poem88.My Sea Blue

My Sea Blue

I can see the waves coming,
strong, big so frightening.
Is there time to take the coat
my favorite yellow on rod?

Had seen these rough times before
but not so anger never been there.
What happened to you my dear?
why you give us so much fear?

Anyway I am on my run
trying to go ahead of you.
Won't allow to take your turn
without a fight my Sea blue.

Written for The Mag144 where we have to write on the given photo prompt. This is mine.You could read other wonderful poets if you go there.

Poem87.Thank You

Thank You

So many verses came and went
as in film on the screen of  mind
you danced and tried to attract me
sad, I saw but couldn't write.

dances of you, my dear words
soft, urgent ,at times wild
all the tensions ,bad fears
you tries to swipe with your glide.

Wish to thank you with my heart
know that you won't need that bit
if you were not there as dear
what would I have done oh! peer.

Poem86. A Handicap

A Handicap

Living in the past
future or present
not sure whether alive
but wish so otherwise.

when others peep
they might think
o, lucky so happy,
so well off  to show off.

in their mind
they might have
wishes to be like
ha, if they only knew?

Having grown out
yes, physically
but mentally a handicap
will you really wish to be ??

Poem63.Plight Of The Fly

Plight Of The Fly

"Help","help" cried out the fly

from the cob web that was so high

oh! dears,please help me here

let me live, a little more.

Bee went by, cockroach passed

other dear ones also roamed

but, nobody helped not even tried

to help the poor, their dear friend.

fly thought- may be they didn't hear

so tried out a little more louder

he didn't think that even for wife

nobody will risk their own life.

For others who saw this plight

thought the spider got his prey.

Spider was happy was getting ready

to have a wonderful good breakfast.

But poor this fly was going through

that bridge between life and death.

Realised now that nobody will help

turned to God,with a cry like yelp.

At that moment the lady of the house

thought of removing the cobwebs,

took a long brush swiped the web

it was broken,the fly fell down.

came down hanging on a piece of web

reached the soft sofa safely,

removed the small portions happily

rested and flew away as a deb.

Again he was free, thanks to God

for hearing his prayers....

When our prayers are answered

we call God 'a dear' otherwise deaf.

Is this right?

Poem62.Change My Role

Change My Role

Breathing heavy

mind blank

shrinking inside

until myself just a dot..

criticism too much

on each and every action

certificates of honor often

egoist,self centered ,list goes on..

How many times a day

one can die

ten,hundred,thousand

oh,I lost my count.

why don't the earth part

and take me inside,

may be not yet reached the climax?

when where and how will be that?

Expecting some miracles

in this drama life

"please change my role,Sir"

praying to the director Mr.God.

Poem.60.Attachment

.Attachment

Boiling mind too much now--

why worry,can you change?

questions are more

answers I don't like.

if a small feather

touch your child or dear

you are bothered worried.

but then that is natural .

this concern for them

this love for what is yours

this  attachment to world

the reason for all  tensions.

knowing all this

why i choose these

always have wondered

but still enjoy this life.

Poem57.Be Winner

Written for Poet United' s Thursday think tank prompt Quotations....

I wrote on this one...

 " It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference. "  Bryant, Bear.

Be Winner

I want you to be winner
winner and so happy.
For me, always you are winner
but for you ,you feel not.
you may not know your power
you may not see your charm,
Problems may let come
may success not come fast
you will always win
for you are brave honest.
Move forward in the same path
with an attitude so positive
success will come running
if aim is there in your eyes.
For me, you always a winner
will be, always a sure winner....

Poem56.Ownership

Ownership

I know what you do

and you know what I do

but I don't know why I do

not bothered about my actions.

My actions flows like river

flow is its habit,

so not worried about

just do,do and do.

But I would like to know

what you think now

why you did and how

bothers much as now.

why cant I take it as mine

why don't I think it had flowed

why that anxiousness to assess

why that urge to go ahead ..

Is this human nature

or struggle for survival

but on the run are we

forgetting the values?

Ownership of actions

we  all doubt to take

tries to blame others

when our action goes wrong.

Poem48.Not Happy

 Not Happy 

I am not perfect

and I know you are not

then, why perfection you expect

from me I wonder.

Not happy on me

and my due performance

how can I work, the way in your mind?

The way of thinking different

way of doing contrast

I can only try, to do it your way.

I have tried so hard

now too on the road

but whatever I do

you are not happy.

Poem47. A Dream

A Dream

Dream a home near woods
one to live alone,
with harmony nature
true to my dear self.

no duties,bindings
no sounds,yellings
calm and peace dances
where I do wish to live.

let the wild ones come
as and when they wish
we will sure share
a bond unique of love.

Tigers,elephants,bears
monkeys,oxes deers
names of some of them
who will come home.

Will this wish come true
in this world of chaos
can I find woods where
I can live alone?

Poem42.Oh! Santa where were you?

Oh!  Santa where were you?

Oh! my Santa where were you

we had gathered to welcome you

from dear kids to great grandma

aunties, uncles waited your way.

Around a camp fire we gathered

songs and dances of all kind

jokes,plays all was there

but all was waiting you oh! dear.

Enjoyment in the open ground

nobody went away from there

all the family around the fire

celebrations went  without you.

After midnight when all  tired

each went inside our own houses

we were so happy be together

enjoying with all for  first time.

But then you were on our  mind

why and why you didn't come,

Oh! Santa did you forget ?

or were you  busy somewhere else?

Poem40.Yes, I do write

Yes, I do write

Before,

words,sentences unspoken

circled through my mind

thoughts, not so clear

lots of them disturbed me.

Now,

words,flows through hands

to the notepad on my desktop

thoughts,getting clearer

more order,feel calm.

When thoughts comes to me

without any reason,without any order

say, 'I will look,just a minute'

they seem more clearer.

Yes, I do write in my own way,

with my limited vocabulary.

I do fly ,not so very high

but,enjoy the feel of going away.

Poem37.A Lady Giant In IT

A Lady Giant In IT
 

Aspiration  was  high;
be opponent to Bill Gates,
 rule the IT kingdom;where
my logo stands with pride .
 'Be A Lady giant in IT.'

Hardworker I though,
work was love, passion,
what and where wrong went,
wish I was aware.
Regret? yes and no.

Regret ,yes I have
left back my passion
But do I regret ?no,
Rule the domain, family
happy with love care.

Decisions taken right,
at time which is right,
right amount of work,
writes to success life,
then happiness your right.

A Proud Mother

You, my  dear kids live with me.
Happy to be your mother, dear.
  I will share, for your info,
the details of my family tree.
 

Eight of us , seven are boys;
me the only girl of the family.
Father Mr.Sun ,with grace,
looks after us so dearly.

We, a nuclear family so close,
do have lots and lots of cousins.
Numbers of them, count you try,
goes on just like the ocean waves.

Father from 'The Milkyway',
big and respectable family way.
Brothers,sisters countless save,
so many first cousins we so have.

Milkyway ,close to Canis Major

out there life exists, who knows.

Poem 35.The Chakra of Life

   The Chakra of Life

For details of this picture please click here

I just changed the dress of my blog,
as someone told me that is old.
Tried to dress her as per log,
beautiful it came out from  mold.

Didn't change any contents old,
everything was  the same dear ones.
By changing only the outer layout ,
the blog emerged fresh at once.

Got struck with thought suddenly,
is this same as the chakra of life?
Samsara chakra, the theory of life,
explained in hindu mythology .

When we die nothing changes,
the karmas of life wears another dress,
takes new human form and continues.
Seems new born for us, but old karmas.

Why some has pain even though good,
why the bad reaps good, this explains.
The karmas which are carried forward,
determines what and how our lives.

Thank you Jingle for giving these beautiful awards..I am very happy to have all these  and all the appreciation..
