Illustration Friday...." Disguise"

 Think...

Do we live our lives,

In disguise,

Like puppets on a string?

Illustration Friday...." Influence"

 

"The Influence of a warm smile is hard to resist.."

The Little Dot and The Smile

A Little Dot,
No form or face to define,
Took a little adventure trip,
Wondering what it would find.

It plunged in an arc,
And curved up again in a while,
That Little Dot,
Had created a wonderful Smile.

Me and Myself

Sitting alone by the sea one day,

I saw a figure not far away.

“Hello”, I said in a friendly tone,

And then I saw it was me, or was it my clone.

To see myself, I was surprised as could be,

I thought she looked younger, this other me.

She dived in the water and swam like a fish,

Oh to swim like that, was always my wish.

Strangely I felt as though I was there,

Deep in the water, swimming without a care.

Her eyes were twinkling; she gave me a smile,

I followed her gaze, but may be the gaze was mine.

We collected shells and pebbles gleaming on the sand,

Her palm was so smooth, or was it my hand.

Then a trick of dusk at the end of the day,

She seemed close as a breath or did she walk away.

I stood quite still, her whispers in my head,

Her voice rang softly or was it something I had said.

There is magic in every moment, in every way,

That’s what she said to me, and I said to myself that day.

Illustration Friday...." swell"

15th August

A swell of kites 

teasing the monsoon clouds

and dancing with each other,

blaze across the Delhi skies 

each year on Independence Day 

"Jai Hind"

Illustration Friday...." Imperfect "

 Oops! tilted sea and ship!

Imperfect!

 

Perfect!

It's just how you see it...!
