Back in Delhi

Writen after a fleeting visit to Delhi *********************************************** I take a walk down the street Heading towards Connaught Place. There are so many changes, Bling bling replaces staid shops. But, the street vendors still thrive. They sell almost everything, From palate tingling g...

Modern Haiku Poems - prompt - Empty

poor turnout
in the temple today -
the beggar's bowl is empty

kitchen buzzing
with the clatter of pots and pans -
her emptiness wanes

one by one
they leave to find their wings -
empty nest

moonless night -
the lone rat flees
the haunted house

she reads fortunes
in woodfire flames

white whiskers-
my uncle's
only claim to fame

I focus on your silhouette, at first it's clear then hazy. I pray that the winds will lead you quickly back beside me again. You ha...
