Microcosm

Stones, cliffs, rocks, mountains
Oceans, seas, ponds, fountains
Lichens, trees, animals, birds,
Sight, sound, senses words

To think it all started
From a tiny single seed
All lies in the mind
It's a small world indeed!

Chhoti si yeh duniya pehchaane raaste hain Tum kahin toh miloge...

Corrosion

Ostensible smiles
Obsequious demeamour
Scrape the patina
What's left
Schadenfreude!!

“You mellow too much you ripen and rot”
~ Woody Allen
