The beauty of simplicity

Your Simplicity

Makes you more beautiful

Than the most beautiful

Melody of your voice

Is melodious than

Any instrument can

Ever play

Your eyes glitter

More than

Any diamond ever seen  

Your face shines

More than

Any ornament ever worn

Your mannerisms

Mesmerizes every eye

Your smile

Captivates every heart

You are the beholder of

Pious beauty

There is no desire

To make you physically mine

I wish you be  

Permanently embossed

In the depths my heart

Offer my prayers to you

As my god

Why should I regret

My darkest hour

Was brighter 

Than of many 

I know 

My prayers 

Were answered

More 

As compared

 To many

My ambitions  

Were fulfilled 

More than 

I had wished 

Then why should 

I regret 

Cry more than many 

Who have suffered 

More than me

In Hope

Severe heat

Snatched smile

From the faces

Turned happiness

Into gloom

Leaves on the trees

Started drying

All hearts praying

In hope

Eyes glued to the sky

Eagerly waiting for the

Dark clouds to come

Pour water

Quench the thirsty lips

Of the dry earth

Bring back the

The lost smile on

The faces

Unanswered Prayer

She was at a distance

Walking On the road

Eyes glued on my house

Seeing her

My heart started singing

My mind in ecstasy

I prayed to god

Hoped

Today she would

Knock at the door

Nearing my house

She turned her face

The other side

Smilingly

Passed my house

Did not even bother

 To have a look it

Seeing this

My heart started choking

Ecstasy of the mind

Turned into gloom

Writhing with pain

 In my heart

In sheer despair

I clenched my fists

And said

Oh! God

When will you listen to 

My prayer?

The silent eyes

(Photograph courtsey:Joshi Daniel )

Lying on a cot

Under the banyan tree

Deep in thoughts

The frail old poor man

Who had not eaten

For two days

Had nothing else to do

Except asking himself

What else should I do?

The silent eyes

Ready to shed tears

Were speaking loudly

Without any noise 

Expressing

The anguish of the

Broken heart and

Worried mind

Praying to god

Oh lord,

Please relieve me of

My miseries

I can’t  bear them

Now
