A Tryst with Time

When in youth breath galloped, Life was a carnival of jocund moments.   Ambition was the arrow we rode on, Into a sanguine nameless horizon.   Success was a moody maiden, Who demurred often sillily.   Then there were the absolutes of Beauty and truth to be conquered.   But the world intervened, Showed who […]

Catharsis of an Evening

Shades of evening have descended silently, Everything is tinged with an ethereal grace, Mind touches new terrains, New meanings sprout from nowhere.   Man is a ray of sun wandering aimlessly, A woman is earth’s womb, In love man gives something of himself to woman, But she absorbs him into herself.   Word contains the […]
