Concrete Jungle

In a city that is
Wildlife challenged
I guess I should
Thank my luck
That I have been able
To spot at least
A solitary duck

Monsoon Hopes

Now that this extended monsoon
Seems like it's here to stay
Here's to people buying
Their second umbrellas
Before it really goes away

Butt Why?

They've packed us off
Into gulleys and alleys
Made life a living hell

And forced all us
Smoking chimneys
To say three cheers
For the stairwell

Bharat Bandh

After bunking an entire parliament session
Now our leaders want us to join in the fun
And that's why in their collective wisdom
They have declared a Bharat Bandh

Flower Power

You don't bring me flowers
Goes her nagging ringtone's pleas
When pray when, will you realise
It takes these blooming gestures
To bring a girl to her knees

Truck Art

It's nice to have
Colours so vibrant
In a burst of
Creative release
Particularly since our
Other means of expression
Is Horn OK Please

Early Morning Glow

It doesn't matter
If these windows
Are open or closed
So long as you've opened
The windows of your mind.

Sunset Sonata

As the sun paints the sky
With a reluctant goodbye
A hazy fog lifts off the scene
Creating wonders for the eye

Semantics of Separation

To the realist

Death is separation

To the romantic

Separation is death
