Why do we offer vermilion to god?
Kyuki isse SINDOOR hota hai.

-

दिल ना भरे कभी जिससे,
मांग सिंदूर से उसी की भरना,
ना उतरे मन जिससे कभी,
साहब इश्क तुम उसी से करना,
जब हो बात विश्वास की,
दूसरो को छोड़ उस पर भरोसा करना,
और दिमाग की जगह तुम,
दिल से ही फैसला करना
आसमां में चाहे तुम,
कितने ही ऊंचे उड़ना,
पर जिंदगी के साथ की उड़ान को,
हमेशा उसके साथ ही भरना..!!

Sweat beads glistened
On her forehead,
Her thoughts lay misted
By a forlorn memory thread.

Guilt-ridden and filled with remorse
Compelled to erase the vermillion,
Which once adorned her centrebrows,
Instils in her, a vengeant rebellion.

Her pale face and teary eyes
Speak volumes about
Her procastinations and hushed cries,
Rendering her lonely, even in the crowd.

Despondence, regret and sheer grim:
A plethora of emotions bubbled up deep within
Her famished heart, filling it to the brim
And beckoning the reminisces of her sin.

The cracked mirror on the cluttered wall
Showed her what is hidden across the window pane,
A crestfallen reflection of hers, standing tall
In the desolate memory lane.

Amidst the hairs
Bloomed red rose
Symbolising her love
Towards him

-

The sky is a shade of vermillion, a perfect sunrise of our life together.
There's a matching shade on my cheeks too, as you look at me with wonder and say, how pretty I look!
I don't know what's pretty, the pudgy morning face or my tired, sleepy eyes.
But I have to believe you, it's the way you hold my face in your hands..

// his
irresponsibility
and insensitivity,

made even
a pinch of vermilion
burdensome
for her //

-

You are complete....
Your grace
complete the world ahead..
Not necessarily
red is acquired...
You eyes itself bestows
vermelionic red...
Subho mohaloya to all.

Dear Love ...

I don't want your billions,
The thing I want from you is Vermillion.

I don't want to be Destined with zillions
Just make "Me" your Present "Eternally",
So we together can make life Hillion.

He loves her
Vermillion rather than
her 💄Lipstick.

This too should happen, sometimes...
The puffy clouds should spray upon you the heavenly fragrance;
And mesmerizing at you, the peacock should forget its arrogance!
And I must admire you!

This too should happen, sometimes...
Beauty born in the dawn’s rays of hope should sooth you often,
And your love should melt the frozen heart and make it soften!
In wintry nights, fairies should gather in paradise and croon you,
And the silky breeze blown from good heavens should attune you;
And I must admire you!

This too should happen sometimes...
The ethereal of moonlight should brighten your holy face,
And shimmering stars should twinkle in your gazelle eyes;
The full moon should redeem the purity of your vermillion,
And its beams should make you perch on unicorn’s pillion;
And I must admire you!

This too should happen sometimes...
Eulogizing you, the chandeliers of the Eden Garden should glow,
And beneath your lotus-feet the rivers of divinity should flow!
And I must admire you, My Mother!!
