Water Water Everywhere!

The ocean vast and rising waves

Crashing strong with surf and spray
See through it to really know
Its water and water all alone!

भगवंताने मेघ धाडिले

भगवंताने मेघ धाडिले

काळे निळे तें जळें जांभळे

पर्जन्याचें सरीं भिजाले

ओले चिंब हे विश्व आघवे

This is a small poem I wrote in Marathi, my mother tongue. Its difficult to capture the same in English, but very loosely translated it means:

God has sent the clouds that are

Black and blue, and watery violet

The rain showers have wetted now

Fully drenched, the entire world

The Mountain Top

Dizzying heights with sheer drops
Boulders piled on rugged rocks

Here I stay, above it all

That's my home, the mountain top!

A River In Spate

The heavy rains and cloudy skies

Swelling waters by mountain sides

Raging ahead, the river in spate
Taking away, all in its wake!

A Sight In Black and White

Colored trees, green and dark

Golden grass and earthen path

All in stark, black and white

Makes me see, a different sight

Approaching Rains

The summer hot, dry and long
Brown and yellow, the mountain top
Arrive the clouds, with laden rains

To soothe it down, be fresh again!

Two Bulls Under Banyan Tree

A hard day's work, now over and done

Together my friend, we did as one

Let's feed and rest here, you and me

Some time now under the banyan tree
