Forever in space

If trees had eyes
Where would you hide?
If the wind could speak
How would you lie?


The witnesses of a wedding
The witnesses of a marital rape
The witnesses of a funeral
The witnesses of an ending
They stand tall
And blindly witness it all


A decade may pass
or a century
The tress live with it all
The winds carry it all
Forever in space...

SUGAR IN MY COFFEE

Image: Ujala Chowdhry Serendipity in the thirteenth century Silhouetted into a marvelous discovery No more words, no more gestures are now obligatory Just some chocolates, cookies or maybe some pastries To dress up a cup of... Black, cappuccino, affogato, latte, or regular coffee   Ethiopia, where coffee embarked upon its first flight Landed into two hearts, so naive "Let's go for a coffee" A friend asked me When opened the coffee shop doors The smell of freshly roasted beans stimulated my senses in chorus   I climbed the stairs And he waved to me, laid back on the bamboo chair He ordered a strong, masculine, royal mochaccino with caramel And I asked for a soft, feminine, and a shy cappuccino with nuts of hazel   Putting sugar in my coffee He stared at me persistently Mixing it with a gorgeous silver spoon He made the cream look like a coffee moon No more words, no more gestures are now obligatory Just some chocolates, cookies or...

A December night

-
When last pale yellow leaf of December fell the winds cast a spell, that blinded the capital city, and an inception of a tragedy was soon to blemish the city's history. The empty and unarmed roads of Delhi staged a recital by five unleashed-cannibals, and a juvinile, who tore open the flesh of a live human, and lodged her like a ball from a cannon- signing her body with an ink of brutality. Scandalised  and terrified, She fought for her grace. Nirbhaya - the girl without a name and a face, brought the blinded city to the  center  stage and taught the nation to fight fears- be it a woman with daughters or a daughter about to be a woman. Everywhere there is a roar Of many faceless Nirbhayas Who fight with these animals in men In every nook and cranny of our homeland Nation is stripped from all corners We are scared for our daughters Nevertheless, we shall fight We sha...
