Sea



Fish swim
Corals in penance
Buoyant bubbles
Plants in dilemma
Drowned under

The thick slab
Of moving water
Reeds read
Their worth
For a while
And hid
Their smile

Under the dark
Blue of
The Mediterranean

A Photosynthetic Feel


Yesterday I was given the document
To get the air ticket issued
From the airline office
For my return home,
Still a couple of months are
Left before I could see the
Native soil where
I left a small plant to grow
To be raised by an affectionate heart
And disciplined hands
The plant is trying to touch the sky,
Selfless, now he prepares for
His homeward journey
Packing the scattered feelings
In a suitcase, putting the packets
Of cheese and cappuccino instant coffee
Three-in-one, the daughter, the mother and the father;
The sweet sugar, the milk of kindness
And the tough brown granules, refreshingly stimulating
By the mere presence -
All mixed in one; powdery, emitting aroma around
The small beautiful flower in a pot in
The small apartment in Mumbai,
Where the sea beckons the sun
To meet above as clouds
To rain on the plant whose leaves
For a photosynthetic feel
Of the green color to grow and glow
The plant standing  near the window talks to birds
When the birds ask her, "What you want from the sun,
Beautiful dresses, shoes, toys, cookies and candies?"
The plant replies, "I want my dad."
"I want my dad to be with me
And share as the sun shares
The rays for the vigor of the earth."
"I do not want anything else
But his presence like the sun."

The Beginning



I am
Alion
I
'see'
My image
in
a well

Well I thought
This was
Another
My rival
I jumped
into Death
To fight
My
Alter ego!

Identities




I am
A particle
Of peace
Learning 
To etch out
A figurine 
For my niche
With my little
Dumb fingers!



I am a
Sea-shore
Dark and bright
Where waves
Bring sea-shells
And depart
Leaving them behind.


I am 
A bird
Without wings
Soaring up!
Perched on
A bed
In a room
With a closed window
Flying at my will!


I am
A spider
Like you
Weaving
Filaments 
And filaments
And I am
Out of chaos!
What about you?

But I am not a Cynic!




Yes, that's true
Life has become simple
And we guess that
It will make life simpler
With wearable technology
As the promising
Google Glass
Gloats me over!

My day begins with
The Internet
And ends with
The Internet
I see the beauty
Of birds virtually
I store all my things
In the Cloud !

I am beginning
To be E-healthy
I will have
Driverless cars
E-dresses with
Micro-chips
And control panels
No burden of carrying
Or to switch off or on
Everything would be
So easy in
A world of 
Gesture-based
Technology !


Ninety percent
Of land surface today
Has towers for mobile signals
We use only
Ten percent of our brains
To move into
A Utopia of
The Internet of Things!
