Shakuntala

Her glance was caring & my hopes were bright
Her speech was short with words that delight
Her smile was radiant, like the moon at night
Her steps were slow yet attractive in gait

Her looks were noble, fires of passion ignite
Her features were slender yet majestic than Knights
Her eyes so proud yet her heart polite
Her manners so gentle, provoked poets to write

Her laughter so irresistible, a thunderous light
Her character so simple yet profound to excite
Her love so pure in line of my sight
Her being so divine , didnt need me quite

Karmic Katabasis

A world of our own making
With beliefs, hopes & dreams
An illusion we call reality
With fantasies, dreams & deceptions
A game we came to act
With friends, families & fellow travelers
A desire forever arose
With likes, dislikes and whims.

A birth of our own karma
With tendencies, impulses & unfulfilled needs
A personality costume we wore
With fear, insecurity & anxieties
A character we chose to play
With sadness, anger and grief
A time unchosen will end the play
With regret, remorse and guilt
