THE ALCHEMY

"Slaying her demons
Gulping venom
Emaciated by bitterness..
A calming presence touched her
Awakening her to a safe world
Back to thriving from survival mode
She blossomed like half of its soul."

-POOJA RAWAL

"What if the savagery drowns the caressing;
What if the acumen acutely ,fatally injures the touches once soothing;
What if the phoenix stops owing the ashes;
What if the rhythm,the crescendo tantamount in the final analysis to a graveyard of ambitions turning to phantoms awaiting the new moon of resurrection...."

cloak of mist and sun dust;
balmy ..soaked in the rains of months bygone
Croaking frogs algae clad wood logs
serenading winters
Bidding farewell to summers
Ethereal autumn's flagbearer
Unfolding mystery in scenes austere.

कड़वाहट को चखे बिना;
गफलत से निकल नहीं सकते..
हिसाब है यहा हर कारस्तानी का..
सफाई दिए बिना यहाँ हिरासत से निकल नहीं सकते।

The hindsight serves now as insight
into the upcoming times;
cozy warm blanket of the bygone period seem;
a refuge from uncertainty of a future unforeseen .

-Pooja Rawal

-

There are several streams of desire and fate...
merging and diverting
meandering its course....
the unchartered ones disappearing in the sands of time...
and the ones rowed with conviction emerging as oasis in the desert of strife.

-

"The illusion of invincibility
shivers under peering scrutiny
The bubble bursts....
once towering Pharaoh wrestles with dust."


-pooja Rawal

-

With outbursts discrete
Passion and care implicit
Layering of fond memories well- knit
Warming us through entire winters with it.

One didn't want to understand;
One pretended not to understand;
And the other poor thing indeed not understand
In the ensuing commotion of comprehension
Truth lost its flavour.
