Your coming into my life is like becoming,
Your caress is like a hue of marigold.
My heart knows you care for me
The winds say it aloud, almost in letters bold.
The writing is there on the wall,
But what to do- the wall is tainted with mud
The taint prevents me from meeting your eyes
A flower that refuses to leaves its abode, its bud.
Who does not love flowers and their fragrance?
When did I say I don’t want to be with you?
I have forever wanted to be a part of you,
Have stood and waited for a lifetime in a queue
My turn shall come one day
When a few living moments of yours will be mine,
There would be that one day, when your one look-
Will do the work done by a glass of wine
Intoxicate is what you do to me….
You bring the best out of me
You are the rhythm in my song of the soul
You bring my tune to such glee
Will wait for your magic to pick me up
I wait to be engulfed by your wave,
I swear I will ride with all my heart
Will readily become for life, your loving slave!!

World Cup 2011- Team India's Extra Run!
(Dedicating this poem to the fine army of 11 fearless men, finely led by MS Dhoni who rewrote history by clinching the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 at Wankhede Stadium,Mumbai on 2nd April 2011.)
The fine smell of victory fills the air
The talented boy’s mother makes sweets aplenty
Both jaggery and joy taste one-just sweet
The smiles and claps were awaited for years more than twenty
Almost three decades it took to come,
When it came, it got us a wave of hope
Hope that tears will be forgotten,
Strong shall become today, the rope!
Rope, of courage and happiness
Only gets stronger and stronger from here,
For men who were pacing on their swan song
Are now singing the last few melodies which we all can hear
The phantoms are out singing sweet songs
The reflection of this historic moment will etch forever
The Indian team is now sold to their destiny’s gold
They’ll be reminded of the sheen, on their every cricketing endeavor
Screams and cries of ecstasy flows above the ground
Hugs and Tears are ruling the night
Right now, Crackers and fireworks are the only sound
Almost dancing to the tune of eleven men’s might!!

The Night Of Glory
Your face shines today like a diamond bead,
The forehead bears a divinity unknown since birth.
The air screams of your presence and begs us to pay heed
This night is special, it is showing us our master’s worth.
As you drown in his glory,
You take us along with you in this stream
The water seems to gush with us along, like a well-told story
You sit there, almost like the Divine torch giving way to its beam
Your face picks up the smile,
That has lit up many an atom and life
Your being dons his magic
A magic- that can bring any wish alive
As we sing songs of devotion tonight
Melt is what you do inside me;
Merging as if turning our every wrong into right,
This night will not fade away, it always will be……….

His touch, His Divinity.....
He saw, He stood and He asked!
His quest became a jewel
A little spark of water made my worth shine,
To shine beyond its luster- got into the jewel’s mind
And then the heart started talking,
Words and actions seemed not too many.
And suddenly, I wanted to sing aloud,
I want to dazzle like a diamond- said the penny.
Pennies and Nickels,
Are they metals full of worth?
Splendid dreams can always turn into realities,
Says my marshall, the divine master of this earth.
Loving you is to love him,
Loving like a fool is the trick.
Innocence binding the emotion
Akin- a candle flaming around the wick.
But One day, the candle will light up the room
The glory will reach his ear,
One day, the buds will also get to bloom
He would also get to know, what makes him so dear.

What’s Your Gift??
The wind blows and brings a pearl
You think it’s the one that belongs to an oyster
Something then whispers slightly in your ear,
And it finds you then, smiling like a victorious fighter!
The fight is nothing more than this world
The world that we all fight every living day
A struggle that we all bear with unknowingly
With our hearts and wit!
Wit does not conquer all, courage does
Doting mothers will swear by it
A martyr, if he were alive
Would live it in his last moment
Moments are all around us!
Some Good, Some Very good
There is no moment that is bad
The gift depends on its wrapper
We wrap our own gifts
Innocent perceptions form the ribbon
The present is what I wanted
I make it my own- Gift!!

The Uplifter
It was a lonely day,
I felt so weak and down
It seemed, there was a lock on my pray
The ground seemed dull and brown,
Oh! I missed the green of the earth
The Eyes felt betrayed and ignored by the divine
I longed for another life,another birth
I longed for happiness, feeling as if It never was mine
And then, the rainbow dawned
And you entered our lives
With you, we made an unbreakable bond
Like dolphins and water –when they take their dives
You walk with us on every step,
Make us believe it measures a foot
You bring such joy into our hearts,
That enters life, even in a log of wood.
And as I stand where I am,
You lead me into the light
I realize you’ve taken me up,
On a God-kissed heavenly flight!!
