My epitaph

What would you write
On my epitaph
Some good words
Or let't be a cold stone

Would it take you a while
To think about our lives
Or would I live with you
For the rest of your life

Would the carvings be
Dry or slightly drenched
With your priceless tears
I wish I would know

Would I be the one
Or one of the countless
Who would remain
Even when not there

What would you
Write on my epitaph...

Get a life

Craving for some unhealthy food
With frothy coffee freshly brewed
Tangy and spicy that stirs the soul
Like Stuffed and creamy burrito roll

Too much of sabji and chapati
Let's be a little naughty
Tired of boring steamed and boiled
Get some cheesy beauties dancing in oil

What about shaking a leg with mocktails
And wading hands like a slow snail
Lying unbothered with cool shades
On pristine beaches looking at whales

Too much of health is like a killing sickle
Bottle it tight and make it a pickle
And you bask in the glory of taste
Dont let healthy routines make your life a waste!

Reminiscence

Reminiscence of carefree days
Brings the smile back
On Face hardened over years
By responsibilities and fears

Those moments of blissful solitude
With sips of coffee and acoustic tunes
That let the sweet gush of air
Fondle your senses with flair

The mind that anchored the ship of thoughts
And countless dreams and possibilities
No oughts and no shoulds to bother about
No treading on plans socially laid down

The times of aromatic youth
Still fill the mind with fragrance and charm
When you put the present at bay
And soak in reminiscence of carefree days..

No sunshine for weeks now
No heat to dry the loss
So much of humanity has sunk already
The heartless rain must stop now
#monsoon 2019

Oh my lord

Oh my lord
With a mere thought of you
Every morsel of my entrails transforms
And opens up like a morning flower
My breath slows down
And all turbulence within me subsides

Your form is incomprehensible
Your extremities are never ending
And your silhouette merges with universe
Your massiveness surpasses imagination

All knowledge deposits with you
All matter vanishes and enjoins you
You are the energy you are the light
You are the creative destroyer of life

The water air earth and fire rise to you
Pray to you and long for you
The soulful droplets scattered
Desire to surrender to the ocean of you

The truth and the false are meaningless
So is the being and non being
You are all names and all forms
I am incapable of imagining you

A flash of your notion suffices
And renders power to my helplessness
Oh my lord
With a mere thought of you…
