THE VOICE



A parched land, sans a drop of rain,
in all its glory of its inhabitants pain,
nestled in a corner so far away,
that the bird's voice had its sway.

 Ahoy! Then came the soothing voice,
blended with the essense of spice,
a melody so pure and sweet,
that the soul needed no cure and greet.

 Alas! Came the end, a defining moment,
a voice that was cut in a short frequent,
with a pledge, promising to be back,
untill the land would turn barren and crack?

Broken Strands

Behold her, that symbolic smile, Which stood all by this while, when silenced by the deafening noise, was indeed stated to make heads poise. The words that were immeasurable, slated to make the memories pleasurable, the voice more precious than photos in a locket, clubbed with the smile way expensive than a diamonds' karat. alas the storm occurred, with it brought the miseries, the tide of time convoluted, shifted to unknown vagaries, breaking the subdued foundations of kinshap, the poet stood haplessly  on the strands of relationship. -Sharath J Bhushi

The Natural Conundrum

Rolling hills, meandering rivers of the exotic nature, to shear thrills, rousing shivers of humanistic creature, passes the tide of time, the nature heals, but the slide of grime, does the man ever reveal? Tress uprooted, rivers polluted and animals evicted, the human soul wandered, beleaguered and petered, day in and day out the nature lost its soul, and all we did was sit and cry foul?
