World Poetry Day


Sailing through her gasps,
those fireflies,
trespass the boundaries of heaven,
to find her soul, dance recklessly,
and her arms, move vividly,
making pristine patterns
of her eyes,
that shelters the ecstasy
of dissolving into a heart
that bleeds poetry…

CELEBRATE YOURSELF

I have a child in me who fears isolation. I have a villain in me who is a prejudiced idiot. I have a lass in me who wishes to look beautiful  always . I have a genius in me who yearns to achieve . I have a dreamer in me who wishes to unleash reality. I have a joker in me who adds humour to every cell . I have a fool in me who complicates simple things. I have a saint in me who controls the rest of them. I have a god in me , who loves to touch lives . All of them share the same space presenting themselves in a myriad of forms. Yet,I am no perfectionist, I commit mistakes. But, I am myself and enjoy being that way. You too are a multi- coloured soul, Celebrate your uniqueness, Celebrate yourself!                              - (c) Vasanthi

Tell me, I won't be hurt, for I am not telling you that I am enchanting enough for you to stay, I am but a wanderer, too enchanted by the legacies of all the racing clouds and the bleeding sun, but again, do I have to be enchanting for you to stay? "Tell me" I ask again Tell me what is that you go back in search of, the very second you meet me. You tell me you are lost as well, in between all the slithering memories. You tell me you have to go back trudging along those limned locks of life, You tell me you have to go back to make sure that the five-year-old understands that going back sometimes means going home and somet...

                           I AM     A WOMAN                            ILLUSTRATION : PADMAPRIYA MURALI                                         My eyes can venture into  the deepest secrets of your soul. Those eyebrows that lay on my forehead can question the unanswerable. Look at me a little carefully, and you’ll find  a gentle smile behind those lips of mine that are tightly sealed in fury. Those bangles in my hand    jingle very often to tell you that my gestures speak as much as my eyes . I am powerful, poignant, intense and passionate. You can call me shakti, You can call me kali, You can call me panchali, or name a million more gods and  goddesses, and you'...
