Friday night at a friend's
for moonlight, scotch and
ravenous need for old boy's talk
last one to peg was
the first one to fall..
Maturing weekend, a Saturday's dawn
from the sheath of hang over &
boyish hood I start
brisk short walk across the park
teasing breeze, mild morning, virgin it is
Feigned park's appearance &
hunch-back trunks tell tales of
Zephyr of the twilight hour
and its path, now mine, towards
the shell white garden bowl
That's filled with
liquid green, smelly moss & amber browns
I stand there, by the fills that ebb
perturbed, beyond the rims
of the bowl and my heart
Morning await
benign pours
from the dark looming
cotton clouds on an ageing
spring day at a hour past four
I shun purposes, of my walk,
of reaching home
In a transcendence hang-over
instigated by the purity around
and dirge hum of the trees
Gaelic tunes of a northward gale
enter souls that, encircle the bowl
With hands spread and crucified to the
priest like flow that, leaves as tears
from behind smoke-blue eyes..

Written last Saturday around 7.a.m after I reached home. Park that I pass through to reach my house is my Muse. There are times when I jus murmur verses to myself and never make effort to recollect and write it down. But this time I did not take much effort to put it down..the whole experience was so fluid and it came pouring. I was bit glad to find there were few other souls that seek such silent quarters and serene mornings..
Though I had my cam I did not bother to click it..It was early morning and I was lazy ..hope you'd understand..:)

hey i had walk in the park....
u took me there...
i could breathe the air
sense the aroma...
the zephyr...
awesome work
can see you there and the mossy bowl-
the mood, the words -which are really sensations more than descriptions,
the distance and the closeness ...
yes,the best stuff is what takes least effort and comes floating out from the inside.
really liked the picture painting words ... u dont need a camera :)
May I link pls?
welcome back...and thanx for the treat
The best bit :
Gaelic tunes of a northward gale
enter souls that, encircle the bowl
With hands spread and crucified to the
priest like flow that, leaves as tears
Funnily I had...
Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me
running in my head as I read this bit...
Welcome back man.
