Listen the tragic story and tears may start
I cried and cried, my heart falling apart
to get the secret they give pain and stress
hammer nails in the body makes it a mess
they tease and torment with a nasty wire
pocking in the flesh pains like electric fire
force of compassion I wish to impart
I cried and cried, my heart falling apart
the war and terror of worms near the wound
they shout and laugh loudly, moving around
tears and blood boiling but there is no sound
pain miserable, pain ho pause! no bound
still no secret from your tongue shall depart
I cried and cried, my heart falling apart
melting burn reaching bones, what a scorcher!
oh God! why do you allow this torture
wind from Satan is a sadistic breath
Take away your gift of life, worse than death
tough to drag sympathy out of cold heart
I cried and cried, my heart falling apart

Love is an illusion June 20, 2007

1 comment so far
Me thirsty of your love, now in great confusion
Love is an illusion
Almighty’s grace was raining down when I was born
A cyclone passed by my chest when the heart was torn
Your little self haunting me what a delusion!
Love is an illusion
When we were moving away both were in distress
Salty tears in eyes and the moment was tasteless
Pain in life and life in pain both are in fusion
Love is an illusion
My heart was crying when heard your sob in bereft
Your sweet memory in disarray since you left
Deep oceans have dried, swelling junk on intrusion
Love is an illusion
My flesh so cold and the lightning in my blood
Lips are thirsty, my lonely heart sinking in flood
Looking for God when my savior on allusion
Love is an illusion

My will and pleasure May 16, 2007

I pretend to read Bible and Koran
to show no fanatic mentality
I claim not succumb to social pressure
This is me and my personality
I don’t like rotten rituals,
sacred fire, animal slaughter
yet agree to give handsome dowry
in the marriage of my lovely daughter
If I spend money on death rituals
or in superstitious leisure
that is my status and my ego
What I do is my will and pleasure!
Deep down in me is a terrorist
bloody black-mailing my emotions
and crying no one can pressurise
I have my own personal notion
I sacrifice for my religion
good heaven is my thrill
I’m not hypocrite or irrational
What I do is my own sweet will

My Death February 18, 2007

Theme : Death
The Death has drawn a line on me
Mind in blunder, my heart in wonder
I see the death coming near me
Spreading black veil, making me blind
Shaking my bones, and veins are blown
A wave in melody piercing my mind
Song from the birds rolling on a death cup
What clouds reveal, wet fragrance I feel
From earth to cosmos, umbrella opens up
With love I am ready to be breakfast next
Death licking me while I taste my death
My soul is fulfilled but ego perplexed
The world is dissolved, I’m going to die
Nothingness looming and silence blooming
Peace everywhere I’m flying in the sky.
Order from heavens passing my ears
Take me my dear with joy and cheers
People around me why shedding tears?

Your sweet memory February 16, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in English, Poetry.com, Rhymed.1 comment so far
Since you left me, Oh sweetheart!
My heart in silence teasing apart
hidden in sky I see you in showers
in beat of my heart full up of scars
Your beautiful lips smiling in flowers
your charming eyes peeping thru stars
your love inspiring for music and art
Since you left me, Oh sweetheart!
in dreams I see you to quench my thirst
weaving daydreams still agony so much
eyes in my mind, your image to clutch
how to bring charm, your beauty, your touch!
sinking my lonely heart, tears to start
Since you left me, Oh sweetheart!

My Mistress! February 16, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in English, Poetry.com, Rhymed.1 comment so far
threatening wind is getting angry
just like rocky and heartless wife
silent like in disagreement
but penetrating like a knife
complaining whisper thru my ears
fierce in a cyclonic speed
throwing garland of snow around
scattering everywhere all beads
in foggy morning fumes everywhere
whip like cold wave is felt
Lo! here arrives the red beauty
my hand moves to her and she melts
how to embrace in the arms of warmth
a guilt puts me in distress
Me, winter and furnace
like hubby, wife and the mistress

A point behind the intricacy
the heartache is beyond cure
thunderous big bang from your anklet
universe emerging in flashes
The star, planet and satellite
are shining dots from your eyelashes
The clouds just like black-holes
are lamp black for your eyes
billion years have passed
in search of love, the heart cries
since then tears of separation
formed huge ocean for sure
the heartache is beyond cure
You, dancing in fish, flying in birds
In monkeys, humans you are on play
Your craving for love sneaking in reptiles
Darwin lost the way
life with a heart and source of heartache
the heartache is beyond cure

Craving of a candle turned into pain
Scratched and just got melted
Shouted owing to heat of tears
Got divided and detached.
Joy in life somehow disappeared
Love got silenced soon
Summer chewed the vast ocean
Darkness swallowed the moon.
Scary river pulling with the force
So long hair of the hill
Frightened air was tightly clutching
the multi-arms of mountain
Smiled the Sun looking at this
then laughed to the depth of sky
Lo! how come so soon got washed away
every shadow of the cry.
Roaming clouds now trying to imitate
the tune of dancing men
Dance of lightning turned into love
craving of love throbbed again.

Since I left the caves,
I wrote Vedas and Bible
Philosophy and science
Erotic books and songs tribal.
I have been boasting on being son of God
till Darwin’s Monkey checks
I make celibacy an ideal of life
till Freud’s pervasive sex
“Man is like insects”
“God is dead”
that is Nietzsche’s libel
Since I left the caves,
I wrote Vedas and Bible.
Thread from the fibres of words
tied myself to cope
I fell in love with every book
that is prison be tied with rope
But pretending creator of universe
In dream I’m riding waves
I wrote Vedas and Bible
Since I left the caves

My Ego February 15, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in English, Poetry.com, Rhymed.2 comments
How to grab arteries of mankind
No mind should be free
name to occupy everywhere
me… and only me…
seers tell us of dissolving ego
merge in the cosmic jar
how funny have bankruptcy in business
claim owning bazar
forget all, Look how pretty lovely!
my ego, my name!
the question keeps troubling me again
the truth in seers’ claim
why seeker in a wild forest gets
Divine Buddha fame!
but king Shuddhodhan is recognised
by only son’s name
kings and thorns have aggressive ego
rose bud always knows
the man as always appreciates
fragrance of the rose

Moment February 15, 2007

A moment flowing like a drop in a river
Try hold in a box golden or silver
I exhausted my life thinking and thinking
Each time I got losing or wining!
Wasted my life converting into money
Like a busy bee creating honey
“Tick Tick” said moment in a mechanical scheme
Lost my life through a cobweb of dreams!
The moment stopes flowing when you are alone
Flies like a bird when a party is thrown
Moments of sorrow can cry loudly
Clapping moments of joy proudly
World is a drama with emotions all
Who knows when will curtain fall
The lamp of life gets all dissolved
Still the mystery is not resolved.
Layer by layer, like an onion
Moment itself opens up
Strangely combines a pungent dish
Flavoured with a sweet cup.

Love is the essence of life February 15, 2007

The world sleeps in the lap of Mother Night
who braves the darkness scars
Happy sky garlanding her
with moon and shining stars
As a lover and itself a mirror
the sky looking at Night
love is the essence of life
Nature carries world’s burden
with love and hope fervent
greedy man! Don’t treat her
just like a maid servant
Don’t put hole in your boat stupid!
Pray the Nature, you are in middle of the stream
love is the essence of life
The existence is difficult with pride and prejudice,
thriving war and blood
yet from libido emerges the fibres
to flow the essence of love
the spring goes beyond the selfishness and lust
love is the essence of life

Enough of mutual hatred, Friends!
Have nectar of peace to dive
Death has danced enough so far
It’s era of Live and let live.
For nation, race and religion
Battles and war enough
Now a call to humanity
Stop the political bluff
Roar like a lion if you face
War-monger with insanity
Not by feeling of hatred
Firm with belief in humanity
The world is a marvellous pub
Saaki has enough of drinks,
But afraid of mischievous eyes
frightened, pale she sinks.
Wash your sin, Be drunk in peace
Spirituality to drive
In Khayyam’s poetic lyrics
Era of Live and let live.

Lisa! February 14, 2007

Lisa! You are beautiful but be away
vulgar when so much near on my way
Your slim body with a thin waist
fish like eyes on the cunning face
your walk is like a poisonous cobra
why do you wander at ugly places?
Your heart is guilty, you don’t talk
but move anywhere to dwell
Like a movie scene why do you dance
on the wall and roof as well?
Your petty beloved get merged in you
hell with love when you enjoy food yummy
your sweetheart are just tiny insects
Live in your heart or slipping in your tummy?
for amazement, I want to touch you
with my hands but you are quite wizard!
Why do you scare me and trick me around
Lisa ! tell me, are you a lizard?

Crake of dawn February 13, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in English, Poetry.com, Rhymed.add a comment
A lonesome branch embraced
And squeezed the chest of a tree
Smiled the breeze in her heart
and passed by the sea
Crake of dawn is fine! and so is lukewarm unshine
Merging in sweat of burning noon
Sky to the depth in light
Ah! Dream Melody emerged from
A cave of frightening night
Crake of dawn is fine! and so is lukewarm sunshine
Naughty someone during night
Blackened the face of Miss earth!
No one to care for her dews like tears
Then what is all its worth?
Came sweet Morning with garden wind
What a flowery and fruity!
Tears of happiness that was dew
and got again her beauty
Crake of dawn is fine! and so is lukewarm sunshine

Autumn February 11, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in English, Poetry.com, Rhymed.2 comments
soaked in tears my piano
how can I create a melody?
my childhood a dry autumn
no place for any greenery.
I have sold my playful life
for a few coins, what a deal!
After my sweat and blood
hard to get a squire meal
my childhood put on a mortgage
I joined the labour force
how could I go to the school
With no money, no source
I never complain with my master
for I am bruised and battered
puzzle of love and abuse
Alas! my life is shattered
I deserve smile or chuckle
Why rebuke passing my ears
Scared as always be beaten
who will wipe my tears?

Promise February 10, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in English, humour sarcasm, Kritya.in, Rhymed.1 comment so far
A crooked minister instead of hell
went to heaven he was desirous
Mistake in account of Karma
May be the computer had a virus.
His hypocrisy got hidden
Charity visible as paint
The account gobbled in a way
The Minister looked like a saint
But what sort of heaven it is
teasing luxury so well
Burning fire around
Just like in the hell
Fraud, corruption as Minister
were all under his direction
He, innumerable promises
had broken after election
Bribery charges eleven
and broken promises million
virgins’ image moving around
Just to ‘promise’ heaven.
-Harihar Jha

In the Rain February 9, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in Boloji.com, English, Rhymed.add a comment
Theme : Love
In the rain with you,
my heart is a garden
a dancing peacock appears
Stupid the rain!
when you are away
It brings a flood of tears…
Wet is romantic air in your love
and wet is all our bodies
How to open our tender hearts
when we both are quite and shy
Your anklet sounds to express passion
and ringing bangles conveying…
Lips unable to speak emotion
Then blowing wind comes helping
In the pouring rain when you are missing
Tough to pass the lonely night
the long garland with all its fragrance
jumps as a cobra ready to bite.
Why the garden so green yet blowing
Storm of fire to slaughter
passion in air, flame in the heart
fire blazing in the water…
Don’t Feel Shy February 8, 2007

Theme : Love
Don’t feel shy in the sweet moments darling!
lest the redness of dawn may hide under the clouds
Wine from your eyes is for me to consume
flowers in your laughter for me, my fragrance
river of youthful rapture is not to disperse
beauty like a red rose for me to delight
Be stylish or smile but don’t feel shy
lest the redness of dawn may hide under the clouds
Your charming, melodious, titillating song
drunk in desire, still innocent quite
in a wave of love so high and strong
your beauty like rainbow pleasant and bright
Flood my soul with joy, don’t feel shy
lest the redness of dawn may hide under the clouds

Let Them Blossom February 8, 2007
Posted by Harihar Jha हरिहर झा in Boloji.com, English, Rhymed.add a comment
Theme : Woman
In strange people, in hostile aliens
Peep through and see God in all
Variety of flowers in this garden
Let them blossom and enjoy the fragrance
Fire erupted in cosmos, Sun and Moon got destroyed
Death dancing in chaos, steps involved in error
Now all sobbing in cold wave, why so much of the snowfall?
In the swing of these extremes, terror rolls on anti-terror
Have restrain said mother earth,
Sense how delicate is life!
Variety of flowers in the garden
Let them blossom and enjoy the fragrance
Women shackled and handcuffed, all sympathy meaningless
Euphemism dancing around robed in a shining dress
And lo! hypocrisy is thrown, vision of world awakened
Soon declared equality to march in the path of progress
Are they commodities or powerless you think?
Admire women’s potential
Source of love like buds in a garden
Let them blossom and enjoy the fragrance
