Raindrops

droplets of rain

earth’s wishful mouth

open for torrents

Snow Feast

 

The benevolent sky conjures

a heavenly feast for the empty earth,

scattering snow on the lonely bench

drenching the eager tree,

loading trucks playfully,

tossing thin crusts on surprised travellers

and coloring the wet mud,

thus making a creative pattern

of white amongst dark brown

Warning

 

Sky issues a warning

of the arriving upheaval

with vicious thunder

The Light Below

 

Bereft of his friend

He eyes the earth’s bonfire longingly

The lonely new moon sky

Trembling Earth

The tired sky stared at the earth

having nothing to give

Bereft of energy

and spirit

 

The warmth of the earth

turned into a burn

The sun pierced the land

cutting it to dry pieces

 

Unable to bear the crushing weight

of so many beings

the earth shook

and erupted one day,

which the world called earthquake

 

The sky hid behind clouds

too powerless to help

the trembling earth

Dreams and Hopes

Leaves spurt after years of waiting

Flowers bloom after days of prayers

Born out of pity for the empty branches

Bearing the dreams of roots

Perhaps, just like how humans

Carry the hopes of mother earth
