Her voice a little smooth
like the silt and sediment
resting between my toes
and her black tresses
braided with salt and water
as if flirting with the moon tonight
that shifty-eyed moon
with it’s borrowed lights
hides the scars
when it soothes her
and imbues them with the
milky pristine moonlight
the truth and it’s absence
and the time crimped in its edges
she scampers on water gently
on a moonlit night
cupping her palms with the fleeting light
folded gently within those faithful waves
she dips her toes
/A truth so sublime/
the moon watches this dance of Rhapsody
this unison of passion and beauty
and folds it gently
neatly tucked in the lap of time.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.
