  • Oh Boy!

    Some day when I am done These grains of sand will speak Of a boy who chased his destiny… Today, let me just be Some day when I am done These waves will rush to greet A man who took his chances… Today, apprehensively they meet Some day when I am done The sky will paint a picturesque…

  • Act of Contrition

    Image Courtesy:Google ‘New lives for old’, I kept aloud A trade that bespoke temptation O’er tulle windows of crowded alleys I scavenged with a strange fixation A frail heart, a meek disposition Almost anything would perfectly do I had a city at my mercy to plunder Oblivious to a fate, they had no clue I…

  • Un-Stained Melody.

    Image Courtesy  : Google     My cries are drenched in the welcome He receives for being the family heir Why was I cut from my mother’s womb? Don’t I deserve the same love and care? My sodden tears have no effect For they’ve taken away my books He still gets to play and go…

  • The Twilight Years

    This poem was given as a framed giveaway for dad’s 75th birthday…..I think it says it all! A special thanks to Nivs Khemka Photography that covered the event.  The tree symbolized the family roots. The birds, the children who leave home but do return to the nest. The flowers in bloom, friends, family and joyous moments…

  • The Circle of Life

      Something about brides….and weddings that gets me misty eyed. Another sonnet written for the same theme, thought I’d share the song that inspired the poem 🙂     Tempestuously, her silver anklets tinkle Her heartbeat, the ornate bangles, jingle Mesmerizing eyes hold a million dreams Emotions run like an inhibited stream Quivering lips that part…

  • The Final Dance

    Strokes of peach, a blush of pink Rose she was, he a commoner ant This great divide made his heart sink She was royalty, he of lowly descent Clad in satin, in a fortress of thorns As the winds came a laughing by He watched her fall prey to their scorns Their meandering trail, a…

  • De-Tangled

    This post is an entry to the Dove and Indiblogger ‘My beautiful hair story’ contest.

Back to the story, as it begins to unfold, I was a princess, but was never so told. Locked up…

  • Just……….

    In the mood for some good ol’ mush today……………………Sigh!  Happy Labour Day 🙂 Image Courtesy : Precious Moments You know you are in love……. When words fail but silence speaks And tears glisten for joy When it seems only yesterday Your eyes met for the first time And you are still being mesmerized By the love…

  • Goddess of Good Times

    You know how first impressions can be! Dedicated to one of my closest gal pal, my partner in crime, my mad twin when it comes to pranks and more. You know who you are and for the record, I’d not change nothing about you. Albeit your Photoshop skills, would gladly trade 😛   So I noticed her…
