418.Photographs Today

Photographs today are no longer rare
In plenty they emerge for whoever cares
Clicked  frame by frame enthsiatically,
To be deleted with select and click equally .
The nostalgia of going through album has been lost
Nobody spends a dime on developing cost.
Millions of photos are updated without care
Crowding the website with likes and share.

417.The Obsessed

The bleeding womb
The grotesque scars
The pleading cry
Yet all around
Stands the obsessed
Dictating terms endless
Threatening to rip
Even the dead.

416. LOCKED

On  sultry summer afternoons
When wind hoots and Whistles
Leaves dry,wither,tumble and fall
Unsettling the reflection formed
By causing  ripples on the surface
As if to rake up memories
Locked beneath the calm water
Of  the otherwise settled pond.

415.Deaf, Dumb and Blind

Beneath the shade of ripped shelter
Stands a common man selling water.
Soaring temperature does not raise his temper
Delligently he serves all with cold water.

Born deaf and dumb has made him witty

Pointing towards the law enforcers who are forever greedy

He chuckle as they collect bribe to fortify their unsatiable booty

Turning deaf, dumb and blind whenever on duty.

414. Relationship

The imprints on my skin
Makes me blush crimson red
It Stands witness to the night.

Your fingers run through my hair
As I snuggle up to your bare chest
Lips spread out as crescendo in dark.

Your hands encircle me
In its crook I relax carefree
Counting our rhythmic heart beat.

Sweet, bitter experiences  unfold
Kneading us to bind forever
Relationship thrives as it wins.

413.World Poetry Day

When your mind is filled with commotions
Let ink pour out the emotions
To Weave thoughts into compositions
And sail through varied situations.

March 21 is celebrated as the World Poetry Day. It was in 1999 that UNESCO decided to devote this day to poetry.

Poetry plays the social role of developing interpersonal communication through the use of language. There are poems that awaken our senses and emotions like never before. A good poetry makes us aware of our own dilemmas ,  questions, emotions in sublime and subtle ways through the frugality  and novelty of language.

Good poetry, like any other well crafted art form, works in mysterious  ways and can leave us feeling better or light.  As someone who reads, writes and  enjoys poetry, I am delighted there is a World Poetry Day. 


I wish all the poets Happy writing!

412.Red Carpet (Haiku)

Red carpet welcomes
Spring, springs to refresh  surface
Blue sky kisses red.
