A Deer at a Pond

A deer near a pond
Drinking water, sees a lion
Now fears the water

Some moments of happiness that suddenly turn into horror that haunts all the life.

Letting Go

Still hanging on tree
Unwilling- the leaf falls down
Now sways in the way

Love is all about letting go.

Learnt To Swim

Drowning in the sea
Choking- the pressure on me
But I learnt to swim.

My first Haiku. Its about how people laugh at you when you fail. But you make them silent with even a greater comeback.

Sway

Raindrops on the roof,
They’ve given me a change of mood,
Washing all the desolation away —
Like a freebird, like a goof,
Inside me, joy that brewed.
In the rain, I dance and sway.

This poem is inspired by Ruskin Bond's "Hip-Hop Nature Boy".

Checkmate

Celebrating too early-
"Resign youhi", he said.
Then made a blunder-
An end to his journey.
The web i spread,
His king, ready to surrender.

Inspired by a real chess match where my opponent starts celebrating too early and taunts me - "resign youhi". But resigns himself later.

Clock

Going round and round all the way.
Whether you count or not,
I count every second night and day.
Your life's ticking forward, filling like a ***.
The end is not far away.

Just jotting down whatever’s on my mind.

Try Again

You got a dream,
A spark inside you.
Your eyes got that gleam,
A passion inside you.

Each step is fuel,
The energy inside you.
Hard work’s a tool,
The patience inside you.

The dreams and the desire,
A hope inside you.
Turn the spark into a roaring fire —
You’re one of the few.

Life is full of pain,
The strength inside you.
Try again,
And make your dream come true.
