Unfinished Business


As you trail through the valley, 
Along with many cuckoos sing.
Soul finds solace in its rhythm, 
Striking many chords within.
~ Kashmir, Lyrical Landscape ~

* * *

A wide canvas of blue you might think,
Stretching its arm open wide for you.
Punishing you with thunder and claps,
Array of pink, orange, ocean blue.
~ Sky, Myriad Hues ~

* * * 

Kiss the droplets on my body,
It has never been kissed before.
Hold me tight as you do it,
Leaving it wanting for some more.
~ Body to Body ~

* * *


Slender or plump,
Wrapped or partially nude.
I am what I am,
I proudly wear my attitude.
~ Head Held High ~

* * *

Sometimes, I feel you are in me, 
Yet sometimes, all agog, 
I run after you.
Sometimes, you speak a million words, 
Yet, I feel, 
The unsaid is overdue.
~ Vagabond in Love ~

*These are opening verses of the poems I am unable to complete. Which one you like the most? And sorry for not replying to your comments and reading your blogs, there were some unfinished businesses in real world.

    Romance has always been the first choice and its the same here too.

    As women a lot in the real world happens to keep us away from our passions but then its only us who can keep the real and reel world in harmony. Hope you finish your business and soon and get back with a bang.

    Beautiful lines to begin a beautiful poem. Touched!

  22. Ohhh! Are they incomplete? I am too intelligent to understand that :P What I can understand was the emotions you shared through the words...

    TC! Keep smiling :)

  23. First why dont you shoot your own pictures they dont need to convey the angst of your words .. you could use your mobile phone too.. borrowed pictures rob your words of their intrinsic ethos of your minds imagery ,, take care ,,that is why I taught photography to my grand kids .. cheers .

    1. My photography skills are zero and I don't even have a cell. But I will keep your suggestion in mind.

  24. This one touched me like 70 volt mild yet electrifying current in landline phone wires :-P

    1. That's a powerful comment. I so wish to complete it but words fail me.

      I am doing good, hope the same for you. :)

  25. The second and the last one are indeed very beautiful. Here's hoping you will find the inspiration to complete these poems :)

    ReplyDelete
  26. You need to finish all of them sweety....but if I have to prioritize it will definitely be
    1)Body-To-Body...the pic is so vivacious and just gets me all jiggled up and the words make me sweat....

    2)Head Held High - always want that...I read somewhere a funny thing that if I ever let my head down, that will be only for admiring my own shoes :)

    3)Vagabond in love - The last couplet captured my attention and I definitely want to know how the unsaid makes up the most.

    4) SKy Myriad Hues and Kashmir, Lyrical Landscape....As a nature lover I enjoy those simple pleasures the most.

    So which one are you choosing to finish 1st? hint: pick my 1st choice :D

    1. That shoe thing is really nice, I think I must quote it somewhere, when need be. I want to finish the last one, first but not able to. Thanks a lot for your beautiful beautiful comment, Vidhya!

  30. Well, all are just too good, and at this point i like 'body to body'the most....:)

    ReplyDelete
  31. I loved the last one.. may be because I am feeling that right now.. And body to body is also surreal and beautiful. You create magic... and bring alive anything that could possibly be finding life.. you are awesome! :)
