Short verse on the lines of a haiku

Eyes

Eyes

 

The eyes were large

Semicircular sunflowers

Waiting for their butterflies

That would emerge only

After the flowers wilted.

Summer clouds

Summer clouds touched your
Heart,tousled your hair, tingled
Your skin ,teased your mind.

Waves

Energy swelled in
Waves, to break on rocky shores
Of bleak nothingness.

The monk

The monk saw  twinkle
In lotus-eyes ;so much flesh
And so many bones.

Love on the beach

the sun burnt your back
we lay on the beach with the
crabs crawling on us.

Love on the beach

The tingle of your
Fingers on my back I can
Hear their carbon smell.

The Kerala countryside

Sea of coconuts
Smothered sultry unwilling
Moss-painted houses.

The tamarind in the ruined fort

The tamarind tree
Spread its hair in the ruins
In the fort's shadows

The Calicut beach

Quickly rain happened
Rocking moist coconuts
Hiding sea-eagles.

The Calicut beach

There ,in the corner, 
Wet sand glistened ,tree shadows
Fell into the sea .
