You are gone

You are gone

to a far away land

exotic

before I love you

hold you in my arms

& show you

what love is...

I weaved

red coquelicot wreaths

stuffed with

dew drops diamonds

to welcome you...

I prayed

the rainbows

to stay as they are

till you arrive

to show

my love for you...

They waited.

But, You are Gone

Even before you arrive,

with the winds of desires

blown off

leaving me

in the desperate shores

alone, alone for years

I am
an egg
dropped
on the floor

Don't
try to make 
an Omelette.

Love-Hate Cake

I loved him for love's sake

Coz I could not find a name sake

I wanted to care him for God's sake

So to please him I baked a Cake 

Cakes are what, just flour & sugar

Mixed in a hurry , with some butter

Added this & that, I did batter

As the eyes glitter when butterflies flutter

Came Lord for tea, gave him my love

As pure as the white innocent dove

Alas, he removed his tight black glove

Showed the wedding ring & gave me a shove 

Oh, my heart beat fast

at the refusal of my beloved's heart
Yet,I cut the Cake like a lady so smart
mixed the grains poisoned with Black Art
 
Aye, he ate like a pig, thanking the treat
all forgetting the terrible cheat

He fell in a flash in front of my feet

I cooked his meat to celebrate my Feat
