Haiku- sep -Dec 2013

1

Rain make lot of noise
Listen to the silence in between
sound of single drop

2

If you want to go
Have to separate you from the heart
image fades from eyes

3

Stole expensive whiskey
Running from cops and gadgets
Dream and throbbing head

4

Waves on river bob.
Many moons show on crests
Cricket and frog sing duet

5

Millions admire my beauty
Some try to understand the meaning
Intelligent Hala

(Hala – fruit from Hawai, looks like earths core)
                       

6

Greed of the first sip
Blowing steam away to cool
Piping hot coffee

7

billions of stories_
Woven into fabric of time_
As night turn to day

8

Sweet as a dimple
Kiss on a cheek from bridegroom
Blushing, happy bride

9

Pulling threads of rope
Channels the wind directly into fire.
Bladesmith hammers away

10

Coconut tree sways
Dancing careless over water
Evening sun looks on

11

Sparkling drops of light
look at you through the window
Fall to the ground

12

Journey to see girls
Wife to be, fully dressed up
Worse than blind date

13

Smiley on jeans;
Lady comments in spanish
pointing at it

14

Basketball players
Oblivious of watchers
new york city day

15

Durability
Nothing last forever
Diamond do

16

Serene azure blue sky
No trees moved or birds flew
waves turned around

17

wolf howled under leaves
spit out pretty feathers of meal
I consume myself

Le loup criait sous les feuilles
En crachant les belles plumes
De son repas de volailles : Comme lui je me consume.
-From Rimbaud

18

Earth rolls around
Sun rays darts through windowpane,
Brighten unseen dust

19

big bang theory.
in the beginning, there was light ..
then you came along

20

fueled by ambition,
he toils day and night in vain_
non action is also action.

21

People talking near toilet
woman sitting on ground nearby
while birds search for food

22

realized it now
folly of existence
rain falls on lotus fields

23

no aspirations
what does one deserve
nothing at all

24

sun beams down warmth
darting through thick clouds
cuts through chill morning

25

Wet green rice fields
Mountains of coconut trees
Bird on mossy creek

26

lilies bloom wild
water logged crop fields
feasting buffaloes

27

clouds shade skies gray
carpets of green fields green by mountain
valley below

28

In love we seek
a good example of friendship
friend loots lovers house
(acha sila diya thune mere pyar da, yaar ne hi loot lya ghar yar da)

29

Worm writing haiku
Cytoplasmic ectoplasm
Crawling through voids

30

Tiring afternoon
Woke up with start, sensing
climax attained

31

old woman weaving
cotton in one hand, wicks the other
to be burnt to ashes

  unperturbed by noise,
chanting hymns from long ago –
unwavering faith

32

stopped at place of first kiss
listening to ‘Jesus to a child’
the lake still exist

33

vortex of sunlight
reflect on coconut leaves
dark clouds surrounds

34

confused ego realises
decisions that brought defeat
crystal clear tears roll

35

realization
samadhi is suicide
nirvana ; moksha

36

wishing friendship day
to friends near and dear
strangers in paradise

37

I don’t deserve it
no angelic rewards
sin; desperation

38

old women ; drenched pavement
squatting with umbrella; seeking alms
answers a call… “hello”

39

bank clerk ignores me
over Uk return
10 lakh transacted

40

deep affection of long,
forgotten; laid to rest.
a feeble cold touch.

41

planes flying
swooping, searching for heading
my clock ticking

42

we have two lives
one before and one after marriage_
rum speaks great language.

43

Happy nag panchmi
I have one swig of rum
lizard tail dancing

44

Oh! Indian
eat biriyani, Wish faster
give milk to poor snakes

45

Oh indian
5 army killed, murderers roam free
Festival celebrations

46

dreams of childhood
beauty of centuries
drowned by rum bottle

47

you like me ; I like
you dont like ; I like that too
silent bomb explodes

48

For all the good done
do You know where this goes
Nothing has transpired 

49

tears streak down dark walls
is this the right thing to do?
old age home windows

50

cries of a peacock
bringeth tears over green grass
yearning and longing

51

farewell my friend,
yonder lies your destiny.
skies shed goodbye tears …

52

girls on one side
majestic tree on other
focus wavers

53

icecream in the rain
to my haiku pundits
silence beckons thee

54

throwing music
pleasant saxophone with keyboard.
comforting thoughts
(ghost box by black box )

55

I am no poet
I write no haiku 
rum speaks

56

life without love
searching for happiness_
walking in the rain

57

light from sky reflect
brackish swollen river
boatman row slowly

58

my work is no art
correct me if I am wrong
f*kd up so far..

59

glory be to thee,
thou shall not restrict my thoughts..
we are made of stars

60

Walking to mobike;
friend stops while talking ‘
baby snake slithers by

62

human intellect_
illogical _
young life taken away

62

Sun tries to attack..
Constant defensive showers..
Puddle reflections.

63

liver so used to;
alcohol deprivation_
smoke from a joint

64

words, connotations..
I love you haiku people..
you complete me

65

essence of haiku,
is in imagination..
dragon pigeon flies

66

Destiny takes on,
Unknown forces overwhelm;
My life is not mine

67

search is over,
world conspires to make it happen,
love child, grow up fast

68

Moon drowns daily..
like Sun into labyrinths_
seeking nothing.

69

throw the moon a rock,
cool light shines through softly,
passing clouds keep watch

70

Girls talking to me
Topics bizarre, vague and wild
Confusion all around

71

flat black mountain top,
peacock in search of a mate_
soulful cries echoes.

72

atop the mountain
amidst the thick forest green_
young bird on a branch

73

the inner self seeks..
peace, tranquility, knowledge.
when will losses recover?

74

boy proposes
girl says nothing at all_
tasty dorito

75

walking barefoot
dew drops mingle with rain..
hairy black wooly worm

76

lone boy in red tee
lost in thought; watching keenly_
puddle of intrigue

77

Work overloaded
Nervous breakdown inevitable
Eternity

78

beatles tshirt,
worn to impress the daylights:
depressing day

79

well ironed suit,
rented for the occasion_
a walk down the aisle

80

stinging the face
the roar of motor bike
grey clouds drizzle

81

they say paperless,
then ask to submit prints..
crack and thud, tree falls

82

basking in the moonlight
slender arms reach upward
searching for answers

83

lil child on a tree
swaying in the breeze peacefully
long-dead, hidden within.

84

placed order for food
scrolling face on mobile
talking to pillar
