New seedling sprouts
Breaking ground towards the light
Hope for the tribe
The sea replicates
Abundant light it receives
Mirrors the sun’s glory
The water reflects
Every bit of remaining light
As the sun goes down
calm flaming sea
sun on clear sky
a new day
sun on clear sky
a new day
embarking clouds
luminous water
breeze of life
luminous water
breeze of life
sun being born
between two cliffs
noon shall come
from bud it blooms
beauty soon withers
dries up, ‘til no more
three hundred meters away
realization hit me
thinking of what to do next
two trees apart
wind keeps them connected
distance irrelevant
Dark clouds hover
Thunder cuts the sky,
Monsoon blows near
The forest sleeps
Abandoned Barn houses,
Cold wind rushes
And be _the good_ ace
Measureless is excellence
The exultant _ one
Pen deprived of ink
Emotions trapped, cries the heart
Tears pacify grief
haystacks neither hills
nor mountains
but have their peaks
Full moon
Waves by the shore
Memories
Barren land
Devoid of life
An old man
Wind gusts
Bamboo Trees bend
Banging windows
Cicadas’ in chorus
Rain floods the creeks
Till the land
Hay stacks
Rice dried on the road
Blistering hands
fireflies gather,
old tamarind tree
light in abundance
Brown fields
Empty farmhouses
Big yellow sun
Pack of wolves
Preys’ shed blood, devoured
Men in power
Bulls on rampage
Fences can’t hold
Young hearts
Senryu
Rose yields
Fragrant, sweet bud
In a beautiful garden
There she was,
Smiling back at me
Ominous night
Glare of broken lines
Prowl against the mighty base
The proud man
Fell short, disfigured
River rushing current
Flowing undeterred
To the sea against obstacles
Yet you are stagnant
Afraid of what lays ahead
Tower of Babel
Proud and mighty
Reaching the heaven, in vain
Empires crumble
Nothing’s unyielding
Big tree
bark profusely bleeds
cracked and vulnerable
burdened by its immense branches
it’ll bend
Train on tracks
right on schedule
destination absolute
freedom abused
Wanderers abscond
