With vegetables and fruits,
Taxman comes and knocks...

One sweltering day,
Wind howls, trees fall; it rains
White pellets- Hail, storm!

Right person, wrong time...

Cries with guilt and shame...terror
Inhabits your home.

Dustbin goes blue, grass
Littered with peel; revellers
colour blind, walk past...

while playing your tune,
The string so broke many times;
Finger blue... I smiled

Rendezvous with night-
Moon chaperons, stars teasing
Winked, dared and egged on…

With a wide tooth comb,
Unravel knots from wet hair;
Else hair breaks and falls.

It’s a glass of steel;
That’s why feel, couldn’t tell
Half full, half empty.

High heels, sun glasses;
Dressed for college reunion;
Sky overcast... cloud burst
