There is no ‘One’, you call a soul-mate, That perfect one — chosen by fate! When the stars twinkle, and the planets align — The moon’s at a crescent, and the fireflies shine! When you fly on unicorns, and bathe in the seas. You catch the rainbows, and cozy up the breeze. You traverse this […]
Oh Moon! Thy light doth drown the nether stars, But the broken glass of my heart still glitters more, At times resplendent, at times morose, Oft gleeful and childish, sometimes mature How ‘lunatic’ of you? I have no clue! You change so often, so I can’t swear on you, Oh Moon! Show me your dark […]

I’m a vibrant butterfly. Spreading my wings. Flittering and smiling, At whatever Life brings! There I see a song bird, Admiring how it sings. The melody hynotizes me, Into dreamland it brings! In my dream I see a butterfly, Flapping it’s wings! While it hovers over flowers, I hear myself melodiously sing! I still flap […]
