you dream away, status

Reblogged from howanxious:

you dream away

to a distant land,

shimmering

with a glow

unearthly,

never seen before,

 .

you go prancing around-

letting your feet drown

in the desert sand,

raising your hands

letting them clutch air

and feel its feel

in the end,

 .

sit under a silver tree

crimson fruits hanging,

curb yourself

from sinking your teeth into

the luscious…

Boy's Day Haiku

held in palms of a young boy

mochi in the mouth

riding on the bear

stringing the carp in the air

the dragon breathes fire

* Submission for Carpe Diem # 213 Prompt. It is particularly based on the celebration of Boys' day In Japan. Since I have no knowledge of the festival, I read through the information available along with the declaration of the challenge and the one available on wikipedia and on the basis of that, I have created these two haiku.

the indeterminate sky

Reblogged from howanxious:

he roared with laughter

and the thunder rumbled,

a shine glazed his eyes

and the lightening strikes again,

he wept in joy

and sweet droplets peter down,

he cried a lover’s melancholy

and the great tears descend,

he wailed a mother’s fear

and the drops solidified,

he hollered in pain of despondency

and the tempest turns up

begetting mayhem and annihilation,

Hello bloggers,

I got a wonderful opportunity to work with the lovely Merbear and you know what, we ended up creating this poem together. Please read and share your views.

leaving for her journey

She was binding her hair in a bun

Readying herself for the journey ahead

Which may take her to distances unknown

Bring in her the sense of being alive…

single ray of light

a single ray of light in the dark room,

static at a particular straight line,

never moving, always staying there,

just fading when approaches the twilight,

and disappearing with onset of  night,

 

making an appearance yet once again,

as sunlight comes through a new day,

faint at first, but reclaiming its shine-

the single light ray in the dark room,

 

where there exists nothing else but

a penetrating darkness all around,

isolated away from life and living,

where the only play is that of the light,

which comes by everyday, day after day-

the single ray of light in the dark.

disaster, hazard

the time will run out

the silence will end

the clouds would burst open

the rain would lash down

blood would flow

scars would show

the heart would be torn open

the mind would go haywire

the time will run out

disaster, hazard

the sky would fall apart

and the land would burst in flames

disaster, hazard

only pain, suffering

would linger in the end.

Specks of dirt

Specks of dirt

appear to have frozen

on the table top

which once was a hub of activity

where I would recline everyday

to get through things

to have a life

with a daily routine

These specks of dirt

now have frozen over it

they will get engraved soon

becoming a part of it for

it no longer has me

recline over it,

getting through things

life is changed,

table top has changed

and I have, as well.

Violet Juice

Reblogged from howanxious:

Violet juice dripping down

seeping through the lips

gritted through the canines

down it flows to the chest

gives the pleasure at its best

the sipping of intoxicating wines

a quite shudder at the hips

the head be dazzled with a crown

the beautiful lusty juice

through the body, running loose.

P.s.- Its my own poetic form- three stanzas, rhyming scheme being ABCD/DCBA/EE.
