Just a poem

image credit: self
Syncing
thoughts
with feelings
aloft
heart aches
and
ebbing dreams
of a fragile heart
Delving
deep within
for reasons
Scouring
far and wide
for
words
My partake
of sunshine
rain and winds,
Summer
Winter
Spring
and even the fall
all familiar
yet distant
close
yet far
I don’t know
what illusive realities
and confused feelings
are all about
only this poem
takes shape
and even poems
are less poetic
at times

At your heels

dabacon.org



 
I am at your heels
making all efforts
to catch you up
to keep my pace
in tandem with you

I need not trudge
if only you turn back
wait for me
and take me along

Won't you do so
Shall i keep trudging?

Apple of my eyes

Cuddled in my arms
eyes closed
in puerile snores
and faint whispers
sleeps my little one
I lend a gaze
in blessed grace
I see myself
so much in him
I run my fingers
through his silky locks
the envy of many mothers
wavy and sweat stained
from playing truant
the entire day
exhausted, spent
now, he sleeps
in beauty
even in slumber
I am lost gracing
the youthful charms
every day you grow
and I see myself in you
in you lies my everything
You are the apple of my eyes
May all good things come your way

tangled life

haloweenweb.co.uk

Life is like a spider
lodged in the coils
of its web
often hanging high
often dangling low
even so
held  captive
in the tangles of the coils
A hostage
with beautiful dreams
but harsher realities
the rainbow beyond grasp
cant break the coils
till life breaks itself totally

Lonely tree

the lonely tree at dusk captured at Bhur, Gelephu by zaypa


Ah, there stands the lonely tree
autumn has ripped it bare
of the spring's rich attire
solitary in the wintry dusk
gazing at the cold engulfing night
forsaken by the parting sun
retreating beyond the skyline
only the clouds tear in mockery
and yet the lonely tree stands tall
silhouetted against the horizon
It puts the cold night to shame
Only to warm this fallen heart
