Existence

Deep in the eternity of mind,A rhythmic call continues.Bits of life by-gone,Spark diluting the reality.The strings without-consciousness,Play on un-composed, unsung.Life goes on performing the routines,In the midst of tangibles and intangibles.There you go torn, camouflaging The nebula of fulfillment.The bondage of I’s and My’s churns, Squeezing to the state of solitude.Infinite is the spectrum,That is drawn in […]

अस्तित्व

मस्तिष्क की अनंत गहराइयों में,अहिर्निश लयबध्द चलती एक पुकार.स्मृतियाँ बीते जीवन की,कौंधती भ्रमित करती यथार्थ.तार अवचेतन ही स्पंदित होते,मूक  अगद्य थम जाते.जीवन दैनन्दिनी में बीता जाता,स्पृश्य-अस्पृश्य के बीच.टूटा-टूटा, कटा-बटा-सा चलता अस्तित्व,प्रछन्न उपलब्धियों की छाँव तले.मंथन ‘मैं’ और ‘मेरे’ बंधनों का,रसहीन कर ला छोड़ता है अकेला.द्रष्टि का अनंत विष्तीर्ण पटल,नयनाभिराम, मनमस्तिक में अंकित,बहुरंगी, वैविध्यमय, अबूझ,नव, नव-नव, […]
