on a starry night
my glare stares silently into the stars
seemingly seeking solace
in their superiority
how they smoothly sail through
the cosmic abyss
they might as well be me
so I am – them, they tell me
with my consciousness
dreaming of sunlight
not forseeing the inevitable
the inescapable death
they tell me to keep shining
continue radiating that light
till end of the time
through rain through pain
Namaste, bloggers! 🙏
Today, I’m excited to share the second part of My Lousy Poems.
Mind you, this part exceeds in lameness than the previous one😂 So brace yourself
1. A friend
He calls me “dude”.
I call him “bro.”
And off to this park I sometimes go.
We talk with cheer.
We talk with ease.
We discuss our life, sports and the breeze.
He calls me “man”.
I call him “bud”.
And we joke around on almost every stuff.
We talk.
We speak.
We chit.
We chat.
We talk of them, or this, or that.
He calls me “pal”.
I call him “friend”.
And on that man I can depend.
I trust him well.
He feels the same.
But,
I never really asked his name.
2. Roses and Violets
Roses are blue, violets are red, everybody should stop judging, especially you
3. For a smile
Dear friend, it’s been some time
since I read your poems
I miss reading line after line
of thoughts with which I’m smitten.
Your words are sweet.
I enjoy the treat
of reading them all the time.
You’re deemed elite!
it’s quite a feat
for me to bring out this novice rhyme
You’re so intelligent. damn inspiring too
maybe I shall write some poetry for you.
Something short, hopefully light and airy
like fluffy feathers or wings of dove or fairy!
Hope this poetry can add that simple, sunny touch
enough to make you smile, thank you so much 🙂
4. High on Love
Baby you’re like honey, and I’m a fly
Trapped in this sweet mess, I don’t wanna die
Your lips are like water on the hot summer day
I can’t stop drinking even if it sounds too cliche
Your existence is music to my ears,
Tuned perfectly to kill all my fears
your touch send shivers down my spine
So after you leave I like to drink my red wine
I reach out, eager to express my love, only to discover all the words have been stolen
Who directed this movie, I’m sure it must be Christopher Nolan
oh, and these stars aren’t fixed in the sky,
nor are they broken but surely I am so damn high
Hey, now that you’re finally with me
I look and wonder at the vastness of sky and the sea
How did I get here? you said to my surprise
We were here the whole night, remember you said I was funny and wise
Hey creepy dude get away from me
I was High yesterday and felt fancy free
You’re not my boyfriend you’re just full of shit
sorry to say but you’ve always been that dim wit
what do you mean baby girl
yesterday we were on the dewy grass, rolling on the turf
you said we don’t need any validation and hugged me so firm
oh, but, now I get it, you and your dirty terms
5. Little Abhi and the Coronavirus
When Little Abhi woke one day,
And donned his fluffy robe –
Coronavirus made its way
With pace across the globe.
It spread to China, Italy and Spain,
The States, and the UK too –
It travelled far by boat and plane
For each and all to view!
He washed his hands and stayed inside,
And over time at last –
He found with thrill and delight
“Coronavirus passed”.
And so Little Abhi lived to fight again –
He shook his head and sighed.
But an asteroid crashed then.
And everybody died.
Hope you guys are having a great time 😁 I’ll be back with more stupid rhymes.
Mind on a spin
with storms within
drops of tears
trying to find a path
to the lips
unanchored thoughts
adrift in the head
falling harder
than the gravity’s pull
mind’s on a spin
but body’s sober
like this day
There’s too much on my mind,
But there’s not enough time,
To write it all down,
So I guess I’ll just drown,
In these thoughts.
Across a gloaming valley
Down the dimming trail
a shadow against the crimson skies
Hoofbeats fast
dusk’s failing fire
Stormy winds
Twinkling stars
whispers in the chill night air
Between what lies ahead and what remains
Hustle, scuttle and thrill
emotions of a yearning soul!
Aphorism with Abhishek
