why should a river be in spate and yet be so quiet

why should a river be in spate and yet be so quiet
is it that the struggle to keep the banks intact
is making it nervous
why is it in turmoil
why should i see it changing its course
when it is flowing as ever it was
my visions were/are   clouded
and its intentions are also shrouded
in some strange mystery
may be some islands will be formed
when the reality dawns
and the river cannot contain its fury
the banks will become bridge
and dry up all the spawns

why shouldn’t i

It’s true that I asked
Why should not I
When we know the limits
Are reached
We can give up
We can try
We can ask
I asked
Why should not I

soup of stillness

A doctor while treating A
Patient fell sick
Now patient does not
Know
Whether to heal the doctor
Through an illusion of dreams
Or offer a soup of stillness

will withered leaves say it all

will withered leaves say it all
will bent branches of the old trees in my garden
let breeze whisper in your ears
what can not be said, need not be said
just  stay silent

Just go


Faith fuels hope,
Shadows advise
Cope, cope, cope
When light is low,
Make life a bit slow
Let prayers glow
Just go, just go

where have you been

amidst the ruins of dreams that we saw together

or the heap of desires that never  sublimated

where have you been

aming the birds nest that fell down

it was a strong moist wind

or

a desert of dreams

that has suddenly become green

thanks to  the deluge of tears

where have you been
