life’s ironies


i had a teeny mini-crush on you

had to tell you. now i’m relieved
i checked to see if i was deceived
cross-checked to see if someone was pulling my leg
n then said, i’m flattered. have we met?
no. leaving it at hello and bye
nothing to be done, so i didn’t even try
just sagely said, so be it
and not, the more stupid

you just made a lonely stranger’s day

I saw your face,
hair long then,
I paused my breath,
for it was when...

Tree's flowered by,
Rice fields dry,
You were gone,
Mere ghost in my eye.

I chanced again,upon a face so fond,
It was in the meads of a football ground.

He wished me luck for a game i won,
it was the face and that is how i sojourn here,
With a hi and a bye!
