Like a Winged Kite..

Written for One Single Impression



Prompt: Kite.... ( My own prompt this week)


Like a Winged Kite...



Flying high with
the force of winds
liked a winged kite
I pass through
the glorious rainbow
Happily excited
for all the colours
which would politely
stick on my body
and white wings
but nothing happens,
I find myself coming out
without any change
why should have rainbow
chosen me to
show its true colours..


***

For haiku lovers....let me see if I have done the justice:

Rainbow’s true colours;
a  white kite passes through it
and lo, it stays white..

just a little ahead of me;

Sun hits from behind..

and sunflowers all laugh at me;

harsher summer winds..

eager paper boats

look for puddles of water;

Rain Gods are silent

burning sun dictates terms,

ah, my eyes shed tears

yet the dry rose is happy;

some hint of water

Some hint of water,

I see the clouds moving in

will it, will it not..

Love Loves To Forgive..

  Written for

Prompts: Lenient, Fog, Struggle..

Love Loves to Forgive.

She struggles to see
through the thick fog of doubt;
he stands firm
on his slippery ground
for he knows, like always
she will take a lenient view
of his misadventures..
And life will go on
as it has always gone
she reads his mind
and hers too
smiles and says..
“ Welcome, home.. whatever..”
Staying behind the fog
she shuns struggle
and prays, “ May God too
take a lenient view.."
Love loves to forgive.. isn't it..

for her winged heart to soar;

God paints a rainbow

and her heart flies right through;

feet no more on earth.

to her waiting place

To her waiting place

where life's longings bloom slowly;

ah, dark clouds melt..

without stealing sun’s glory;

flowers go to sleep

Flowers go to sleep,

butterflies evade darkness;

Where Life and Light Dance Together..

Written for 3WW...




Where Life and Light Dance Together..


A happy step taken
No more clinging to the past;
murmurings from the
tiny dots of darkness
left behind somewhere
will slowly cease too..
I can now hear
the musical footfalls
of a brighter future
creating a soulful symphony
by merging with the
exciting songs of
a melodious present
where every moment sings with
abundant freedom and joy
Hey, join me here,
in the ‘Now’ where
life and light dance together....

Thanks to Tracy of These Silly Words of Mine 
for the prompt Fickle..

I Hold My Dreams Tight..

None touches

or plucks

or smells the fragrance

artificial flowers

born dead

live pretty long

soaked in pride

of their own beauty..

no fear of a

fickle weather

and I sit looking at

a blooming rose

tremble with fear

in my balcony

ah, strong winds

without a warning

blow my hair too

I hold my dreams tight….

RS:)



Thanks to my friend from Switzerland Claude LOPEZ-GINISTY
for the translation in French..

Personne ne touche
ou ne cueille
ou ne respire leur fragrance
les fleurs artificielles
mort-nées
vivent assez longtemps
baignée dans l'orgueil
de leur propre beauté..
nulle peur
d'un temps capricieux
et je suis assis regardant
une rose magnifique
je tremble de peur
sur mon balcon
ah, de forts vents
sans prévenir

Footprints of Childhood

Written for

Prompt: Lock

Have tried to use lock with

various meanings..

Prompt: Fickle

Footprints of Childhood

In the depths of heart

are locked her happy dreams;

footprints of childhood

*

A swish of her hand

moves locks away from her eyes;

gesture beckons him

*

fickle mind,

he still shuns an eye-lock;

she wonders

*

Her melted feelings

want to reach up to him, oh;

will lock rise the flow

*

Ah, this game of pull;

 God unlock the mystery

that controls the hearts..

RS:)

Here's the happy Gift of translation
 in French from my friend
Claude LOPEZ-GINISTY


Dans les profondeurs du cœur
sont enfermés ses rêves heureux;
empreintes de l'enfance

*
Un geste de sa main
repousse une boucle de ses yeux;
ce geste l'attire lui

*
esprit capricieux,
il méprise un regard appuyé;
elle se pose des questions

*
Ses sentiments attendris
veulent l'atteindre lui, oh;
l'écluse fera-t-elle s'élever le flux

*

Ah, ce jeu d'attirance;
Dieu déverrouille le mystère
qui contrôle les cœurs ..
