A Call Out Of Curiosity

A call from a senior

early in the morning

an enquiry about health

felt a cordiality in her voice

finally rested on a query a

my innocence is exploited

as usual by many persons like her

she comes up with a curiosity

will, I participate in a function?

I smiled and kept quiet

she knows well that I will not

why does she put forth this question

I really do not know.

The Beautiful Rose May 23, 2019
I wish to be like a rose. delicate and strong, I can never emulate. The flower, nestles between thorns, acrobatic in style. The petals, express concern, small and soft but remain steadfast. The fragrance mild and pleasant spreads remains forever. Those in bunches of four and five claim solidarity. The single ones reminiscent of royalty, […]

Fish In Moonlight May 20, 2019
Am in a buffet, laid out in a garden. a pond besides the stars twinkle. The moon is full. Walks with me towards the table lights up a rows of dishes exotic and delicious. Salads, rice, roti, potato fries, soup, and many more. Veggies being my staple food. Curious turn towards the other one, loaded […]

A Popular Politician May 19, 2019
One of a politician who has lot of wits, a natural orator, uses them to manipulate. Born in a family, both traditional and modern, in years becomes greedy. Rises in ranks fast, turns authoritative in talk, speaks no truth. People start to understand, the euphemisms of his mislead.They disengage from his fold. One thing for […]

Better Be A Stone May 18, 2019
I am stuck. The mind turns void. Eyes blink. I stay for hours. I hear silence. Think of nothing, A stone like being. I remain for long. I forget the place. Do not remember places, names. am quiet for a time. I appear strange. A semblance to none. Akin to the dumb, deaf. A lunatic, […]

The Path I Traverse May 15, 2019
In my school days I stuck to reading unmindful of science and mathematics. Had I mastered those would have made money astronomical. I read, write, turn lyrical. While my friends turn professionals I do business and down I go. Books,trading and family pull the threads along the folds I succumb and survive. None wish to […]

Dilemma And Despair May 14, 2019
Dilemma and despair, the tirades one within you, the other without will kill you. Dilemma gnaws, comes and goes, allows no rest, an inability pronounced! a surrealism. Despair cripples, lingers and remains, extends sleepless nights melancholy breeds! an existentialism. Man undergoes these experiences which play fair and foul! a realism.
