i hear music...

i hear music in my head
at all times…
the song of the wind as it  teases the chimes
the robin’s serenade 
while the day is still young
 the humming of the  bees 
and the soft flapping wings of the butterflies…
as they court the newly opened flowers
whispering of leaves 
as the trees gather their branches 
to  huddle up for the night
 within their embrace will be chirps of many a bird
songs they will sing for the  moon… 
i hear music in my head
 soft singing of my son 
as he quietly prepares for his work 
and another voice resounds in my head
 as  the laughter booms in my ears… i hear music in my ears
 childhood lullabies and the prayer song that my parents sang 
just before we all retired to bed…

sighs...

You make me laugh
 you make me cry 
you make me smile
 and you make me ask a million whys…
theres a full moon up there today 
in the sky 
and the stars hang low…
this is a cosmic show. delightful as always
and within its intricate patterns lie the answers i seek!!!
the answers to my so many whys!!!
 the night is beautiful 
and the blooms that exude the scents so alive… 
the little unseen beings chirr relentlessly
and the birds of the night flutter their wings noiselessly
monotonic calls of the cat that prowls…
this is not a silent night
 cause out there and within my mind there are plentiful sounds
 
i had heard the murmur of the sea in the evening
as the sun had slowly tinged it with its evening blush
then this question from nowhere had suddenly rushed 
asking me the whens hows and whys…
 i had stood watching dusk spread her shadows slowly across the skies… and wondered at the beauty of it all
a star had quietly peeped then from behind the veil and winked so cleverly at me
i quickly sighed lest that too got lost to dusk
i value my sighs …and like to see them fly high
they are an expression of my souls yearnings…

here i am...once again...

Here i am  after long, returning with my thoughts cos i  have too many to  keep in my  mind…thoughts about  life about  relationships and  about my love for  nature..

as the rain falls  and i  hear its pitter patter

on the leaves the trees had shed

 in the daytime maybe

 the sound of the water 

and the scent of the soil that’s totally  drenched  now

there’s also a faint stench of the decaying leaves and  grass…

 the cicadas  call unwittingly 

 and the  intermittent  croak of the frogs a little  jarring to the  ears…

a  misfit sound  for a moment like this…

why you would ask perhaps

 i would say cause of the breeze that’s  kissing my arms 

every now  and then

 sweet cool kisses, a  reminder of times under a shower 

when passion reigned  supreme…

 i smile cause at this moment the  frogs have  disappeared

 i  mean their  croaks dont hinder the flow of my thoughts

the chirring of the crickets and the see saw song of the cicadas play on…

mehfiloan ki jaan

is mehfil mein ho tum lekin dikhtey nahin...

ek ehsaas ho tum jissey mera dil bharta nahin...

ab is mehfil ko sajaya hai baarish ney

aur savara ek mehakti hawa nein...

sochti hoon

shayad tumhey patta hoga ki

kya haal hai merey mann ka tum bin ...

is bheegey bheegey mausam mein...

garaj raha hai aasmaan

ek sinh samaan...

aur baarish ki dhar ho rahi hai tez har ek pal key baad...

karti hoon is zindagi ko dhayawaad ...

muskuraatey huay

deti hoon salaam us ooper walley ko

ki banaya hai usney mujhey kuch alag sey.. .

aur tumhey bilkul merey jaisey... merey dilbar

ab ho gayi hai raat

aur khatam hui weh barsaat...

hawa mehak rahi hai champa ki khushoo sey

aur samundar ney cheda hai ek naya saaz...

yeh sab kar rahey hain mujhey betaab

yeh sab bula rahey hain mujhey baahar!

shaayad yehi hai maqsad is mausam ka...

ki bula rahi hai mujhey yeh raat...

aasmaanoan mein badal bhikhir rahey hain...

aur ek ek karkey sitarey muskura rahey hain..

.jagmaga rahey hain

merey mann ko yeh yaad dila rahey hain mujhko tumhaari yeh ki aisey hi tumhari ankhein khil jaati hain aur merey mann ko ujwalit kar deti hain...
