  • An Ode To Coffee

    An Ode To Coffee

    Too much caffeine is malaise, they say,Anyhow, I always have my way,Sipping, revelling in peace, the droolworthy binge,Relishing the aroma of the invigorating pint,Strong shots make my day. Through friendly chats or romantic dates,Coffee lovers’ bonds are ever so chaste,With a revitalized spark and adrenaline rush,I dash into the boardroom,…

    POCKET RHYMES AND VERSES #2

    In the cloak of darkness, as lost souls wait, . A trail of stars, shimmer in the night, . Radiates the moon, meandering in tow, . While the ocean holds up a mirror below Photo by Davide Sibilio on Unsplash

    The Superwoman Syndrome

    Accoutred in smart formals, I strode into my cabin, all magnificent, Pride permeating, betraying every nucleus, Beautiful, slender and lithe, How was I to ever know, That this superwoman thing is a true-blue myth? .

  • Rhythm

    As I stand, gazing at the rain,The droplets trickling down the window pane,My eyes mist over brief recollections,Of stolen moments under the grey heavens,Where, unbridled, I courted freedomEnjoying every import of humdrumThe mind once smogged with lackadaisical dreams,And in the heart where only serenity screamedI ask myself now, ‘What’s bereft’?For…

  • Cosmic Phenomenons

    Cosmic Phenomenons

    Miserably writhing in pain, In the black ophidian’s grips, A shrill piercing howl, Our fiery Apollo emits Swallowed whole by the dragon? Or chased by the vicious wolves? Slipped through the orb of the demon? Or god’s anger on humans? Sable screening the blue, The universe shudders and sighs The…
