A strict Teacher

A strict teacher

A teacher

Stiff and hard,

For him

Rules are rules!

Observe them

Follow them

Meet deadlines

Maintain standards high

Right on time

No mistakes

No mess ups

Or force to amend

For rules are rules

Any violation

Meets with set of rules

Rules and more rules

For rules are rules

Oh! Rules,

Invincible Wall of rules

Surrounding him!

In alumni meet

Anxious, inquiring

About each student,

Holding tears in his moist eyes

Wall seen pierced

Revealing a soft heart

Rules are just rules

OSI Prompt: Invincible

Thanks !

Thanks

…for remaining unchanged.

It was god’s blessing that we met.

I loved you,

You loved me.

Years have past since then.

You have changed a lot,

I have changed a lot,

And the world has changed a lot.

Isn’t it a miracle that

You love ‘changed me’ &

I love ‘changed you’,

In this ever changing world?

Isn't it God’s blessing?

--which has remained unchanged.

Thank God.

OSI Prompt : Change
Haiku Heights Prompt :Travel

Renewal?

Renewal?

Spot a familiar face

on face book

Is it she?

Color of hair, complexion

And wrinkles can deceive, but

Spark in those eyes bear out

Floodgates of memory open up,

….College campus,

Canteen, Library, Cycle stand……

Scene pass in front of my eyes

 afresh and clear as new,

Forty years have passed although!

Feeling light as a gliding bird

I look for more information about her

But…….

It is for friends only!

 I send a request for friendship!!!!

**

Ocean to Drops of falling rain:

“You were always a part of me,

You experienced a different world for a while,

Welcome back renewing ties!

Let us merge again

To be one

For we were never two!

**

Christmas blessings shower

Everlasting love, parting and merging

May just be fun!”

I need no one to talk

Just someone to share

I need no one to attend

Just one who cares

I need no escort

Just a friend

I need no one to free me

Just to hold me

No knight to ride

Just a lover to love me!

Haiku Heights Prompt : Light

Which is a Fool’s Paradise?

Which is a Fool’s Paradise?

A world of their own

Where love is everything,

Nothing is more important

Not security, nor future

Nor prestige, nor power…. 

Floating in love

Living for love

They are told

“It is not practical

Reality of life is different!”

And

In practical world

One keeps on working for security

Yet feels insecure…….

 Keeps running after power

 Yet always short of it!!

Called mad by their clan

Jonathan Livingston seagull or

Meerabai or …….

Kalasha

Positivity within and

An urn, leaves and coconut

To begin an enterprise

Haiku Heights Prompt : Urn

Seeking

All my

Hurts, sorrows and pains

Dissolved as your hands stroked my head,

Agitated mind slowed

Peace dawned and

Coolness felt.

Love kindled

Smile returned.

Searching

For that magic

That will turn my tears into smile,

In books and knowledge

In wealth and power

In people and relationships…..

Search

Is eternal.

If you happen to find,

Hold on, don’t let go

For your life.

OSI Prompt : Seeking.

Hourglass

Hourglass

We all have it.

Time.

A life- time.

For some mystery

For some play

Some just don’t care

Moment by moment

Grain by grain of sand

It slips out and

We have just

One.

One life- time.

Last grain and it will be over.

It cannot be put upside down

And start afresh.

Looking at the balance sand

I wonder,

Will I live each grain?

Or

Will it just pass?
