I Was Indeed Successful..



Badge, Darken, Liability


I Was Indeed Successful..

Yes, I had earned it
My Award of Merit
And received a badge
In a glittering function
I was happy and
Celebrated too
At that time I didn't know
That I had been burdened
With a liability
As everyone around
Started noticing and expecting
From me a lot more, much more
Glint in eyes would
Turn into darkened faces
Such compelling transformation
Could happen due to one single
Powerful emotion - Envy...
Another kind of a badge
Which could only be felt
Yet spoke far louder, that
I was indeed successful...


***

A Haiku.

Darkened faces;
my badge of honour becomes
my liability

Change: A Haiku..


 
 
 
 
Prompt: Change
 
 
 
Empty walls of mind;
I draw your smiling faces
for a happy change

Some coins shine there
on his little harder palm;
I give a smile

Flames Leap On the Finishing Line..



Clever, Silky , Finish...



Flames Leap On the Finishing Line..


Ah, a clever ploy
of very sweet talks;
silky tone,
shining words,
a comforting web
of  deceit & lies
helps one win
shorter races of life;
when comes the last
flames leap
on the finishing line
as the web so well crafted 
dances in front of the eyes
and one  finds one's
soul entangled
in that very silky thread...
Ah, God listens to intentions
and not the words alone...

Dry Leaf Cracks

Written for OSI
 
 
 
Prompt: Flow..

Three Haiku...
 
 
 My thoughts flow
in rhythmic silence;
morning breeze
 
***
 
Morning breeze
makes her long hair flow;
dry leaf cracks
 
***
 
Dry leaf crack
she passes by, quiet;
my thoughts flow
