Plenty of morning sunshine
Glittering banana leaves
Delightful Bulbul on wire
THE BEST WORDS IN THEIR BEST ORDER. "If poetry comes not as naturally as the leaves to a tree, it had better not come at all." -John Keats.

Winter Musings
Coconut leaves / swinging
like your smile / within cold
sunlight / of winter eyes
Silhouette of her / on
backdrop of dusk sky / and
lonely crow / flying over the
boat
Your magnetic attraction /
a ballast for me / to lit the
path of life / with desired
stability
Her lethargic smile ~ on
this chilly morning ~ yet
love on eyes ~ like a bright
dahlia
Opened eyelids / to hear
the chirps / of a morning
Myna / dancing on the
branch / of a mango tree
When the bell of dawn
tolls / salient sun arises on
eastern sky / to perfume
the heart / with the
ringing / of prominent
colours of joy
Love on the way / flower of
winter / soft sunbeam
touched / mind joyful full of
love
Bloomed her smile ~ like
jasmine of evening ~ while
fragrance of rosy love ~ in
the air of morning
like your smile / within cold
sunlight / of winter eyes
Silhouette of her / on
backdrop of dusk sky / and
lonely crow / flying over the
boat
Your magnetic attraction /
a ballast for me / to lit the
path of life / with desired
stability
Her lethargic smile ~ on
this chilly morning ~ yet

the heart / with the

colours of joy
Love on the way / flower of
winter / soft sunbeam
touched / mind joyful full of
love
Bloomed her smile ~ like
jasmine of evening ~ while
fragrance of rosy love ~ in
the air of morning

On The Seashore
She's sitting milk-y / on the
seashore / and downward
eyes / while a little wave /
left ornament of foam / on
foot / with spirited love

The Dusk & Other Poems
Leaving behind / the red
sea of sky / crows flying /
over the dusk river
faint daylight / of dusk /
obscure / like her look /
adumbrated / difficult to
understand
May / the happiness /
always / be there / on
faces / like mistletoe
Beside harvested land /
alone a long tree / under
bare poles / at foggy
winter dawn
Frozen winter ~ still ~
warm love of Helios ~
somewhere ~ hidden
within Xmas

Childhood Skies
Those skies of childhood /
were more blue / than
now / with flying kites
numerous / in winter

The Winter
Soothing touch of ~
demulcent winter ~ after
rough weather ~ softly
chilled breeze ~ cool cream
of season

The Meeting
And when I met her/
stalemate/ as golden youth
in pawn/ 'cause/ epigeous/
she was/ down-to-earth

Red Rose And Other Poems
My red rose for you ~
unable to bowdlerize
thorns ~ handle with care
unable to bowdlerize
thorns ~ handle with care
Grey tone ~ of evening
twilight ~ the dying sun left
hue of cloudy sky ~ undyed
The dew / part of night /
yet / appertain to / day's
rosy petal
Fall of dusk ~ from the
cloudy sky ~ flight of a
lonely crow
Recalling the evening ~
when you filled the space ~
with your loving touch ~ of
fingers ~ during splendid
walk ~ at city's esplanade

Muntin Love
On the river of sorrows /
serenity of her image /
holding panes / of broken
shadows / by muntin love
serenity of her image /
holding panes / of broken

Muntins ~ of her love ~
holding mundane pains ~
separating each ~ with
much care
