Yet She Prefers Taj..



April A2Z Heights -
Day 19


Prompt : Qutub Minar
 
 
My dream to touch skies
 falls  from the Qutub Minar;
she catches it well;
 
She catches it well;
Thank God she had her feet kept
firmly on the ground
 
Firmly on the ground;
heights do not impress her,
I know I am short 
 
I know I am short;
Qutub Minar stands real tall,
yet she prefers Taj

Yet she prefers Taj
in the pictures I have brought;
One day, yes, one day..

Pariah by choice,
class bunks, but he doesn’t;

lovely weather;
ah, scattered heart carries
indelible dots

 Indelible dots

she is among dots

 She is among dots,
a smiling dot forever;
pariah by choice…

An Owl Outside Hoots: Haiku..

April A2Z Heights -
Day 17


Prompt : Owl

 
I confess to her,
"Never seen an owl, you know?"
Mirror behind laughs ..
 
 
Mirror behind laughs,

Night Stays Still....

April A2Z Heights -
Day 16


Prompt : Nightingale

Melody
adds to heart’s silence;
nightingale

Nightingale
sings hoping he is heard;

like a nightingale?
She says, "No"

I Miss Morning Mist..

April A2Z Heights -
Day 15


Prompt: Mist..

 
 
Bright sun of summer
quietly peeps through her window;
I miss morning mist

I miss morning mist;
no more scrawling of names
on the window’s glass

On the window’s glass;
she pulls a curtain to stop
bright sun of summer…
