A to Z

showers1.jpg

Autumn drizzle
a wallah shakes
the orchid bouquet

Bright wind
grandpa takes me
into his kiting day





Eve of new year
rangoli patterns
in the street

Full moon –
winter’s stillness
in a soap bubble

Garden sprinkler
my infant
steps with the flow



Ice box
mother’s last word
resonates in me

Japanese show
disasters bursting into
calmness

Kite cut off
the sound of children
fading with twilight

Long day
the mosque filling
into fullness

Monsoon ends . . .
the lake filling into
emptiness

New year starts . . .
the beggars dogging
waste bins

On the rock . . .
the descent of water ends
winter's loneliness

Piercing the
breeze, my chute lifts –
summer beach

Queue
shivering of the
autumn dawn



Spring moon
the scent of jasmine
spreading in the night



Uphill walking
she takes me into
winter clouds

Vast wellspring
the greenness of algae
on the fort

Winter twilight
homing mynahs
over my backstroke

Xylophone
my daughter sounds
the name of colors

Yoga show
the elephants bowing
into crow pose

Zebra crossing
I step faster than
the beep
