वो आसमान का तारा

 





आज फिर एक सितारा हमारे बीच से उठ कर आसमान का हो गया,


वो तो जगमगा उठा

अपना बहुत कुछ खो गया,


हाँप्रकाश है उसका यहाँ

और ऊपर से भी छलक रहा,


कह रहा देखो इसे

इसी में मिलेगा रास्ता नयाहौसला बढ़ा,


चातक की तरह मैं आसमान को देखता रहा,

कि बरस जाए शायदतो समेट लूँ तुझे जी भर के,

इस पल के लिए , उम्र भर के लिये |||

Sky and I

I often get lost in the beauty of sky. How beautifully God paints his own canvas, carefree clouds scattered everywhere, peeping sunlight here and there... quiet dark nights and gleaming moon... make my heart always swoon...

And each time I see the fiery Sun kissing the sky before setting in, or sprawling night taking over, these thoughts usher in...



As the Sun sets,
pierces through the clouds it’s ray...
To embrace the sky one more time before calling off the day...
setting ablaze whatever comes in it’s way...

Soon the quiet night slipped in..
Hovering clouds in the sky reined...
Birds slowing gliding far away...
City lights paving the deserted ways...


And as I gaze sky these days..
Ma’s memories make their ways...
Her love for nature n sky azure...
Unfettered spirits n love so pure...
Zest for life n emotions uproar...
Yet simplicity n acceptance, no abhor..
Countless moments creep in …
As I let this Welkin beauty sink in...

वो समंदर का किनारा…

वो   समंदर   का   किनारा ,  वो   लहरों   से   बातें ,  दूसरे   छोर   पे   धरा   से   मिलन   को   वो   वादे , वो   हर   आती   लहर   को   देख ...
