Wings of Sonic Boom

-

 


From shores of dreams where I was born,

I rose with hope each silent morn.

Our past once burned in gunpowder’s flame,

Our ancestors lost to plunder and pain.


Their struggles live within my soul,

To build anew, to make us whole.

Through trials, doubt, and heavy gloom,

I carved my path-a sonic boom.


I rise for people, land, and sky,

With strength that will not fade or die.

From humblest ground, I take my stand,

A force to guard my motherland.


Be watchful now, and understand-

I’m not a toy at someone’s hand.

With science, will, and purpose true,

I stand for peace, for me and you.


For when we’re strong, no war need come,

Peace echoes louder than the drum.

And in my heart, my dreams still bloom

I rise on wings of sonic boom.

An Everlasting Volume

  Our love, an ancient, bounden book, Whose pages hold each tender look, The more I read, the more I yearn, Each leaf reveals what hearts discern. **** With passing years, it gathers grace, Time lends a depth none can erase, A tale that deepens, soft yet true, Inscribed in shades of me and you. **** Not words unspoken linger most, But one fond glance I cherish close, More potent far than lines conveyed, In silent script, its truth was laid. **** What need have we for spoken art, When hush reveals the hidden heart? Within the quiet, still and wide, Our truest confessions yet abide. **** Though rainbows fade from weeping skies, Their fleeting hues from mortal eyes, The tints you cast within my soul, Remain unbroken, ever whole. **** You painted depths no time can fade, In living light your colors stayed, A masterpiece that shall remain, Untouched by loss, unmarred by pain. **** Though distance parts your form from me, In thought, you dwell incessantly, A presence constant, soft, and ...

The Weight of Noon

-
Image
  The sun is weight I cannot bear alone, Beneath a tree that offers me no shade, The noon falls down like some unspoken law, And burns away the mercy from the day. ****** Dust clings to me like days that will not fade, My saree hangs in threads of worn-out time, My child lies pressed against my hollow chest, Her ribs rise faint like songs that cannot form. ****** Too young for tears, too starved to even cry, I hum a tune to quiet hunger’s call, A fragile sound beneath a breaking breath, While death and living blur inside my bones. ****** The footsteps pass, but none will ever stop, A thousand lives move past and never see, The city speaks in noise without a soul, Yet leaves the likes of me to fade unseen. ****** What worth is pride when hunger takes its hold? Who writes the rules for those with empty hands? Does shame belong to bodies starved this thin, Or only live in well-fed, distant lives? ****** Hunger burns slow, a pale unending fire, A quiet thief that steals what hope remai...

Heavenly Singer

Image
  *************** You stole my sleep like a gentle breeze,   A quiet thief that whispers through trees.   In midnight’s hush, you come and go,   A lost soul no sunlight can show.   ***** They left you in shadows long ago,   In halls where only dark winds blow.   Half alive, caught between night and day,   Living in dreams that drift away.   ***** Yet you- You took my rest without a fight,   And painted skies in my lonely night.   A faint smile grew where sorrow stayed,   You turned my gloom to softer shade.   ***** Your voice, a whisper in the dark,   A fragile light, a tiny spark.   You speak of worlds too loud and bright,   And I wait for you in silent night.   ***** Who are you, that heals my ache?   A ghost or dream, I cannot break.   You say no dawn has called your name,   Just shadows that...

Where Sin Begins

-
Image
  "Sin begins the moment I abandon what I know is right.” *************** Sin begins the moment I turn away, Not in the fall, but in the sway. No sudden break, no loud descent, Just quiet shifts of small consent. *** A thought I soften, truth I bend, A line I move to ease the end. No witness there, no voice to warn, Yet something fragile comes undone. *** I tell myself it matters less, That ease is peace, that less is rest. But deep within, a knowing stays, Unmoved by all my careful plays. *** For right was never far or dim, It lived within, it spoke within. And every step I chose to stray, Was one I felt-but turned away. *** Yet even here, the path remains, Not lost to time, nor bound in chains. For what I left, I still can find, If I turn back with steady mind. *** Not through shame, nor sudden grace, But quiet truth I choose to face. For sin may start where I depart, But so does healing- in the heart.

Wheel Within Time

-
Image
Money is the ruler; pen and pencil merely draw the lines. Yet money can erase every scale, while our boxes stay empty. Money, you are like a wheel, I move in you, bound by feel. Without you, I fade to none, Like a shadow without sun. Money, why you love me not? I am poor, by fate forgot. I write dreams in silent night, Yet earn nothing from my light. In rich halls your bright voice rings, Crowns are bought like common things. In poor streets your absence cries, Hope grows thin and slowly dies. I am just a poet bare, With empty hands and heavy care. Words I weave like threads of gold, Yet my hunger stays untold. We both spin like leaves in air, Turned by time with silent care. Some rise high on golden spokes, Some are crushed beneath your yokes. Names and ranks the world assigns, Measured all in coins and signs. Man is weighed by what he owns, Not by heart or silent groans. Still I ask beneath the sky, Must a dreamer live and die? Is my worth in coins alone, Or in seeds of thought I...

The Last and Only

-
Image
  You think you are the first, loud and shown, But I am the last one and only, alone. I don’t chase crowns or beg to be seen, I walk my path-steady, sharp, and clean. *** No echoes I follow, no shadows I trace, I carve my own ending, I set my own pace. Where others seek glory, I simply endure, Complete in myself-final, certain, and sure.

Flames, Not Monuments

-
Image
Women, do not turn into abandoned monuments; do not let your light be silenced, frozen in stone or shadowed by the past. Be the shining flames that light the way- igniting darkness with your radiant grace.   Let your spirit blaze, unbound and free, like fire carried on the wind, guiding hearts through night and dawn, through storms and silence, through doubt and despair.   Be the torchbearers of hope and courage, the steady glow that others can follow, a living, breathing beacon of strength and wisdom, illuminating paths yet unseen, for those who wander, who seek, who yearn.   Do not fade, do not bow; rise as the flame, fierce and unwavering, a light that transforms shadow into vision, that turns fear into the warmth of possibility. Be the flame, the guide, the endless radiance- and let the world find its way through your light.

Hands That Learned to Give

-
Image
I came to life beneath a quiet sky, A restless heart enclosed within my chest, I walked through crowds of unfamiliar eyes, Yet none would stay, nor offer warmth to me. **** I reached for love like branches seek the sun, But every hand withdrew before my touch, I knocked on doors that echoed back as stone, And silence answered all I tried to give. **** I cursed the world for being cold and still, For hearts that would not open when I came, Yet never once did I unbind my own, Nor let my guarded soul be truly seen. **** I gave in parts, but always held the rest, Each kindness weighed against a hidden need, No word was free from want or secret claim, No act of love escaped my careful grasp. **** And so the fields lay barren where I walked, No bloom would rise from seeds I would not free, For love, like rain, will never fall for those Who beg the sky yet will not loose their hands. **** One day I stood beside a withered tree, Its branches bare, yet reaching all the same, It asked for nothin...

Banyan’s Lament

-
Image
  From temple court I am Grandma of Ficus benghalensis  and today, my child, I cry. My sari-like roots once swung with laughter, small hands curled around them like bangles of joy. But now, only the wind touches me- and even the wind feels like a stranger. Children once played in my shade, dancing circles around my trunk, pressing their faces against my bark as if listening to an ancient story. Their giggles lived in my branches, their memories wrapped around my roots. But where are they now? What path stole them away from me? Birds once perched on every limb- sparrows, myna, parrots- pecking at my figs, singing dawn into my leaves. Now only bats visit in passing, their shadows slipping across my tired skin like fleeting ghosts of a world fading. Even they do not stay. Have generations disappeared? Are the stories of the forest unraveling? My roots thirst for the waters that once embraced them. I reach deep, deeper than memory, but the streams that nursed me have withered into...

Electric Veins

-
Image
  In twilight’s hush, where shadows stretch and creep, Across the fields, the silent darkness seep. A jagged flash ignites the sky’s vast span, A lightning’s sword, slicing night’s silent plan.   The wind’s fierce whisper, carrying rain’s perfume, Gathering strength in storm’s impending bloom. Thunder’s deep voice rolls through hills and dale, A mighty echo, telling nature’s tale.   Lightning’s swift arc, a streak of fire, Splits the darkness, lifts spirits higher. Each spark a song, a thrill that hums, A dance of power where the wildness comes.   The storm proclaims its fierce delight, A blaze that blinds the eye’s sight. Electric veins in clouds ablaze, Unleashing fury in a fiery maze.   Trees bow low, torn by wind’s fierce cry, Leaves cast adrift beneath the sky. Through streets and lanes, the howling wind, A voice of winter’s wrath unpinned.   Silver rain, like threads of steel, Hammer earth with relentless zeal. Drops drum on r...
