sweet smell of jasmines
shackles

wind chime
breaking the nose
of silence!

spring on wings
doesn't know
where to fly

with her lovely tips

searching for her
i found her
in proximity to moon

nature's love letter
spreads softly on younger minds
spearheading the times
    - --------------

dreams falling softly
on  delicate mind and soul
forgetting nicety

the season is here
the scents spread all around me
life is beautiful

let the flowers bloom
in the facade of blossoms
not true to fragrance
-------------

a beauty cut short
in the void of silence
extolling the life
    - -----
until all is gone
nothing  excites me at all
love pervades around
    -

reminding her smiles
of  enchantment

on painted flowers

in thick black clouds
a lightning flash
selfie by moon

twilight 
boat man song
on waning sounds

in strict silence
around the village well
susurrus roams round

dozing my energy
crashing my skills
the blazing sun 

sweating sunshine
drowning the cool
temperament in toto 

silence
is neither gold nor silver
but a precious diamond
like our valuable Kohinoor
preserved elsewhere.

my priceless
gestures
the intruder walks
away with
my gold dentures.

incognito face
i see my poems
on her timeline.

stop pretending
start parading

sans GPS
keeping in mind

with darkness
spreading all over
lovers'
bade good bye
to park bushes
