DESERT BLOOM

Back of the sand dune moon emerged

By scattering miraculous beauty

Bedouins have been lit fire, the Semitic

Song of sweet rhythm is in the wind

Caravan of celestial luminaries settled

Beneath the enormous tent of blues

Tonight I am waiting for you near the

Oasis, in the wilderness, spiny shrub had

Composed dreams in its stems, fire flies

Have left over the veil, liberated the gloom

Emotions are climbing on desert plateau

By serpentine crawl, to touch the passion

Let me to love you in marvelous way

I know, ethics of land faded your beauty

Invisible shackle of leg obstructs the path

Miserable eyes want sweet touch of -

Dreams, little glittering for survival,

You break the rules tonight, bluff the

Watching eyes, camouflage your beauty

Borrow the glow from full moon, mesmerize

The world, I’m sure, you would be succeed

My belief says you will come to meet me

Once, let the fake faces of doctrines

To die, tonight I am prepared to go through

Any penalty, in love everything is acceptable

Whiplashes are nothing, just throw the

Face cover, let dewdrops to scatter on your

Scalded skin, say good bye to golden cage

Sweet heart exchange your life tonight

By night bird before the moon to be dissolved,

Its life into the oasis lake forever –

MEANING

Every day I discovered you, each instant

You came nearer to heart, these gestures

Have its different planet, the silent lingua

Franca, sometimes the pretext creates

Rains, at the same time signals makes the

Havoc, in your escort life gets meaning,

To read your face, to know your desires

A whirlwind pulls, polarizes the emotion

I found vulnerable myself, surrender the

Masculinity, the rain downpours, the sky

The silly forecaster, just smiles looking my

Defeat, without clouds it is raining entire

Night, often your planet terminates up to

Me, when my world initiates loving you!

This beautiful equation of life creates

Impossible task possible, adventurous

Feeling enforce me to explore the life, a

Thirst to know realism I prepare to go

Through the ring of fire, blind valley, any

Thing, which could be please you, this

Challenge in life returns the maleness, I

Find you more nearer to my persona, the

Wholeness, totality, surrounds with your

Continuation in my life, this proves the

The theory of Ardhanarishwar,* beautiful

Hinduism s philosophy says every man s

Left part body is belong to female, this

Belief enforces me to respect you more and

More that your existence in my life is

Not only meaningful but significant too, I

Love you infinite way as a part of my body,

SUMMER

Auburn mountains, leafless flora, gray

Sky, deserted arena, magical shows no

More, life follows the path of summer!

In this equatorial night you are near me

Is not it a beautiful acquirement? Broken

Breathe gets new meaning whenever -

Touching to your mouth, the longer dense

Gloom, itself bloom, as your leaning face

Touches to sweating chest, skinny clouds

Flies in the midnight sky, to get a few

Dewdrops, mass vapors of ocean go to

Up and up to extinguish the thirst of blues!

In the city end, sea winds tries to break

The privacy rules, moves like a nomad

Searches night halt, passes nearby semi dry

Garden, brings few sweet aroma, knocks

The windowpanes for sharing some

Fragranced dream, you removes slowly

My embraced arm, unfolds windowpanes,

Bedroom feels the freshness, dreams close

The eyelash, I do not know, it stayed for –

Some moment, or became the third eye!

In the empire of sleep, sensation has no

Control, a wilderness submerges the persona!

We wandered through the rainforest

Entire night we were detached from the

Summer valley, short-term inhabited near

Dream river, dwelling beautiful flourish

Homes, loved to each other, germinated

Harmonious creepers with rare beauty,

Left the place before the day break as

As strange faces laughing on our exposure!
