कचनार की पांखुरी---

हरी घास के बीच
घुमावदार रास्ते पर
पैरों तले कुचली
कचनार की उस पांखुरी ने
अपनी चटक बैंगनी मुस्कान
मेरी तरफ उछाली,
अवसाद के

घटाटोप बादलों के बीच
उम्मीद की किरण
दिपदिपाई.

 1


Tender blades of green grass
Smiling on hardened rocks
Silky pink petals
Whispering to prickly thorns
 and
That one name
Anchor in life’s thunderous storms.
7.
What does her eyes see
Earth’s desire
Buried deep
Wriggling to be free.
Cerulean equanimity of sky,
Simmering  enormity of oceans.

What do her hands touch
The helpless invisibility of air,
The quivering flame of fire
Trying to stand upright,
The shrinking  veins of tree.

What does her body remember
The satin caressing,
The tingling sensations
Heightened passion

She spread herself
Across the space
Reaching out to beyond.

2.



One
who is unrevealed
one
who is invisible
one
who is impalpable
one
who is achromatic
I  invoke Him
And
my  call becomes
His name,His image,His touch,His color.

Sacred  like
The opening word of an orison
 Fresh like
Rhythming vibrations of a tender  leaf
vibrant  like
That multi-hued  bird
Pulsating like
 deep solitude
Wanted like
Warmth in foggy winter morning
Who else
But she.

It’s the day of myriad sprouting leaves,
Spreading  joy and freshness on earth.
It’s the day of obscure vegetation,
Knitting  purple green dreams in dense woods.
It’s the day of unclouded radiance,
Reaching out to  the dark corners of world,
The impenetrable depth of souls despondent.

It’s the day of beauty,
Pledged to retain  innocence.
It’s the day of heart
Brimming with love


It’s the day of
Spontaneous laughter
Rippling verses
Ardent love

its her birthday.

                                                                          1


The first blush of the day
Soak in the murky shadows of the night
I stand suspended
Somewhere in the twilight zone.

                                                                    2



window  azar
Grief echoing in courtyard
Abandoned love
At the door
She walks with silent steps
 hangs her melancholy as screen
shadows of memories
coil in dark corners
And life goes on
Inch by inch...
