hatched from the womb
i cradle them

For this “free-style” challenge  the theme “Indian Summer”.

 zenith of surya

floral parasols open
sun-tan lotions sell


curtains remain shut
moneyed migrate to swiss alps
hoi-poloi indoors


iced chai,chill beer flow                    

ice-creams, golas, sherbet gulped

frozen salads chomped

china-clay jars clean
fragrant Indian spices
grandma's pickled treasure

Notes : Surya is Indian Sun-God

            Chai is tea

            Sherbet is indian lemonade

       

                                        china-clay jars for pickles

                        waiting at bus-stop
             wheels gather smoke to whiz by
              chances missed, hopes crash



          coughing bouts seize him
  gnawed by smoke, tentacles spread
             stop before crab kills



                     technology rules
               pals galore virtual space
                stop,count real friends

nipped in the bud

Heeding Haiku With Chèvrefeuille, July 19th 2017, holiday / vacation

Simran sunk her toes into the pristine sand of Radhanagari beach. 

The stunning scenes seemed surreal. Today she ticked off one destination from her bucket list.

The other places will have to wait till she soaks into the Havelock experience. Raj had 

spent more time on their honeymoon plans than their wedding.

They were to return to Port Blair the next day.

The horizon suddenly changed. Huge tongues of water leapt swallowing everything on the 

way to the shore. Cries of helplessness shrieked the air.

fury lashed

drowning hopes

corpses floating

26^th December 2004 was a Black Boxing Day.
