SPRING RAIN

With the day break, clouds cover the sky,
Where no sunlight comes, and heart of water
Does hover over my head when I am walking
On the roof-top of my house, and drizzles
Are pouring in all-around, it is beginning of March,
Mango flowers just begin to bloom, and
Festival of colors (Happy Holi) begins countdown to come,
Things of beauty of spring begin with Palash flower.

I raise my mind to enjoy that beauty
In cloudy sky that starts to show the earth
That has seasons with vibrant show amid pleasing
Mind’s approach, as long as
Smoothing illusion grows around mind’s journey,                                                                          
Over hard situations and we try to induct us
Into good weather, and raindrops begin falling
With speed of stormy gush, not fenced with narrowness.          

I am on the roof-top and get wet in rain
Raindrops get trapped within cornice walls
And concrete surface fails to soak water
That gets no speedy passage to go down drain,
Waters on the surface turn into a pool or sea
Where raindrops make stir to carry wave of life,
That caries running with bounces, re-bounces,
All are secrets of own songs of nature, delight.

TANKA


Two sisters

Like two petals of a Palash

Sparkle like spring-reflections,

In cool air of the morning,

With dreams of tomorrow.
 
 ....
 
TANKA 2
 
With sparkling eyes,
Sister makes conversation,
Melody deep in
Stillness of sovereignty,
Elder one’s love within.

TANKA 3

No escaping

From this earth

From regions of love

Either familial entire

Or regions of human space
