CLOUDS OF HOPE

 CLOUDS OF HOPE

 

Gimmicks puzzle the heart allure,

Mimics, artificial happiness ensures,

Tricks of the mind trap well torture,

Brick by brick raises a wall encounter, (1)

 

Pyramid in the desert, illusion show,

Pirated health and wellness, it knows,

Pivot fates of life, fame, and fortune,

Pummel enormous vigor opportune, (2)

 

Fascinate verdant valley or enamor,

Fallacy dry river bed flurry of flood,

Fantasy paints hues, rainbows occur,

Fortunate life bemused and behold, (3)

 

Compare upheaval, downfall, pause,

Catalyst opportunity changes cause

Canopy of hindrance, troubles block,

Canvass of  escapade successes, sock, (4)

 

Narrate the mind story of life, in detail,

Narrow lane life crosses heart rebel,

Nurture courage, aspirations, desires,

Nectar of love tear, desperate, aspire, (5)

 

Fame of passion negates anger swell,

Forgiveness assuages wounds, dwells,

Forbidden to trespass on the boundary,

Fragrant flower, life resembles ivory, (6)

Serenity pacifies turbulence, surprises, (7)

Rejuvenate clouds of hope, attitude,

Resurrect pale mood, the sun bright,

December, the azure sky, chills, sight. (viii)

PROFESS THE DAWN

 

PROFESS THE DAWN

Chilling wind freezing night a fright,

Curled up limbs under a blanket fit,

Shiver at dropping mercury shaken,

A dawn breaks, fog invades, awaken, (1)

 

Enviable the Sun, hazy light a havoc,

Farmers walking to the field, a sock,

Bullock carts or men begin the day,

Life demands hard work in many ways, (2)

 

Frostbite of flowers dampens hearts,

Winter morning village picture arts,

Bemoan the spirit aspiration check,

Effulgence profusely visible breaks (3)

 

Uncanny sense of uncertainty stays,

Create doubts and suspicion, sway,

The smog inhibits enthuses deride,

Stays challenges of life well decide, (4)

 

The dawn heart mourns yet active,

Days, precious for work, life survives,

Trouble life struggles, an endeavor,

Success and achievements in vigor, (5)

 

A plethora of pleasant moments feel,

A myriad of fascinating dreams heal,

The past flurry of flood or summer,

The blistering heat death or rumor (6)

 

 

Clean and fresh, imbue confluence,

Fewer seen tiredness yet influence,

Disappear the humdrum of life tell,

Lonely boulevards, lamp posts yell, (7)

 

A lazy morning, lethargic limbs cry,

A bright day, fortunately, stays, defies,

Proved wrong profess the dawn sing,

Life resembles a bullock cart rolling (viii)

THE RIVER AND LIFE

 

The ocean extends, horizon to horizon,

Bottomless depth, inhabit life motion,

Oyster rejects salt, drinks rainwater

Humans depend upon natural water (1)

 

The source of human life sustained well,

Fertile land, bumper harvest, and hail,

Food, water, cloth, and shelter to hire,

The civilization near the river inspires (2)

 

Centuries after customs, traditions stay,

Festivals and celebration love display,

Livelihood travel by boat carries goods,

Fishery desirable dishes enrich foods, (3)

 

Path of life, a sojourn in the river show,

Discovers the ocean, the path known,

Attracts waterfalls, rivulets join well,

Human life eventful thoughts dwell, (4)

 

The crystal clear water or white surf,

The colored pebbles paradise dwarf,

Life, picturesque personifies, dominates,

Like a river influence satisfies intimate, (5)

 

The verdant verdure mountain peak,

A river flows through a gorge, a creek

Infinite peace and happiness bewitch,

City lives, milling crowd noises switch, (6)

 

The flood and flurry of human anger,

Devastating lives witness the sufferer,

Critical factor for nourishing life well,

Dishearten a dry bed of a river quell, (7)

 

Arrival of rain, hope, revive, captivate,

The river and life coexist, confluence,

Timeless intimacy entwine influence,

Life resurrects, recognize her, intimate. (viii)

HYPNOTIZE DUST CLOUDS

 

HYPNOTIZE DUST CLOUDS

Closes the curtain of life Earth shows,
An evening orange sky quietly glows,
The sinking sun tired limbs soul wish,
Dream and achievement well cherish, (1)

Pervades darkness, stars twinkle, glow,
Profound peace and bliss heart know,
Penetrating silence diminishes chirping,
Among the mangrove cuckoo singing, (2)

Mural of rustic lives, cowherd return,
From the grazing field back home yearn,
A bell in the neck ringing, mesmerizes,
A dust cloud behind, hours surprise, (3)

Unknown thrill throbs a heart view,
The vigor prefers rest, dream renews,
Bountiful harvest granaries full, stay,
A gentle breeze, golden crops sway, (4)

The cowherd boy, his flute touching,
Magical moments display enriching,
The aromas of the thatched cottage,
Dinner for the peasant love assuage, (5)

The cows moo, milk, a calf dance,
Hope and aspiration play, enhanced,
Festivals celebration cow fascinate,
The source of a livelihood indicates (6)

Spring or an autumn phenomenon,
Dried straws, fallen leaves, emotion,
Dust settles quickly, wind devastates,
Tranquility or solitude promulgate, (7)

Obscure the village invisible at night,
Temple bells ringing, the lovely sight,
Thrilling story of the village life allure,
The beauty and serenity exist, appear. (viii)

A MORSEL OF FOOD

 

A MORSEL OF FOOD

Palatial mansion gold reserved,
Gadget, furniture all preserved,
Domestic servant, maids serve,
Thirst for popularity, heart love, (1)

Life walks on wealth and prosperity,
The body rejects food assiduity,
Tasty food or a variety of dishes,
Health does not permit misses (2)

Satisfaction pseudo impression,
Survival is a critical factor, a reason.
Fame and fortune exist in hunger,
Erroneous attempts, show anger, (3)

Fresh air, clean water, or nature,
Surprise, life disappears pleasure,
Life searches for food desperately,
Sleep and comfort follow lovely, (4)

Witness the elusive world envy,
Sumptuous meals feast in a privy,
Outside the barricade disparity,
A pair of eyes hunger for charity, (5)

A philanthropist distributes food,
A survival with water life brood,
Opportunities rarely happen, feel,
Denial of rightful life yet reveals, (6)

Observed orphans, octogenarians,
Rejected by society, a cruel man,
Orphanage or the shelter home,
Provision of food survives some (7)

Fertilizer, water, and light, a seed,
Foods for the tree grow indeed,
A morsel of food for life, human,
Survives, grows strength, he can. (viii)

A fragrant lotus in the pond, and display,

Soft eyes, beautiful eyes, or a sweet voice,

Jubilant to watch the sunrise, he rejoices, (7)

Pinkish, their chicks lure sweet face, rosy,

Fascinate the new world love in between (viii)

TIMELESS TRADITIONS

 

TIMELESS TRADITIONS

Ephemeral life beliefs thrive, defy,

Customs and many practices diversify,

Stay human faith for a millennium,

Unfold the ageless story, die minimum, (1)

 

Kings and queens, invaders, tragedy,

The saint and monks pray, melody,

Cremation and oblations to spirits,

Staircases of the ghat, picture lists, (2)

 

Orange glow, the sunset, is ecstatic,

Flock of birds, boatmen, life hypnotic,

Ringing of bells from a temple hymn,

Different realm magnetic, or rhythm, (3)

 

Speechless, observe the sight sways,

The Ganges flows slowly; it displays,

Flows emotion, healing the malady,

Moisten and gentle breeze, parody, (4)

 

Silent and sober moment captivates,

The legends survived well, intimate,

Crowded boats, the riverbank, dwell.

Ethereal feelings, imaginary prevails, (5)

 

Creeping thoughts civilization exists,

Primordial views worship evil resists,

Evil, self-doubt, suspicion overpower,

Pretentious mind illusory and cower, (6)

 

The dogma and discrimination fight,

The bitter quarrel, society, raises a fright,

The Ganges has seen tumults clean,

Cleanse the ambiguity or peace win, (7)

 

The river of perpetual love bliss flows,

An enlightened heart perceives, knows,

Timeless traditions, faith, and beliefs,

A dip in the cold water is quite a relief. (viii)
