Speak

Nightstands gingerly sweet The flow and the rumination Bird song, poetry , silver-spooned thoughts Need time To Unravel The silken drapery of arguments From each line A keyword Speaks volumes.

Devilish Bloodhound

Here is a bloodhound, Passing by the river.                                                           When I first saw the dog breed, I realised it can be detrimental […]

क्षमा कैसे मांगू

मैं कैसे कह दूं तुम मुझे क्षमा कर दो अनेकों परिप्रेक्ष्यों में तुम्हारी आवाज़ को मैंने तवज्जो नहीं दी तुम्हारी राय को दरकिनार किया जो यद्यपि बाद में सोने सी खरी लगी ।                                   […]
