Random Poems of A Mumbling Mind

Discovered some drafts lying around and decided to combine them. More updates on my trip to Mangalore coming soon.


Hundreds of things left unsaid,
A hundred dues unpaid,
A lifetime is never enough,
To clear the wreckage of sins.

***************************

A shooting star streaked across the sky,
Setting its path aglow,
"How can a broken star",thought I
"On a downward spiral grant your wishes?"

****************************

She cast a glance at the limousine,
The diamonds catching the afternoon sun,
The beggar smiled at the beauty she saw.
The lady in the car shielded her eyes,
For she could not bear the pearly smile,
Glinting in the sunshine.
Two lives.
Separated by a chasm of contentment.
