In the Moonlight
in moonlight's soft sheen I bare all that I am it's the sun's harsh rays that send me scurrying into dark caves and crevices where I am enveloped in the shell worn and roughened through years and tread of time's wheels, cracked by aches and maladies with marks etched deep in my self © Neetu Malik
Some of Neetu’s Books
-
I see you will haggle over your wares
sell them to me for the price I ask
I know you have many gods
little and large, in stock -
first snow
flakes of a poem
fall on my page -

in the deep blue dusk
so we may paint joy

before it grows dark? -

carried to my ears upon waves
as they ebb and return
a symphony of love
played on instruments
of the heart— -
sultry afternoon
in the vast cornfields
reaping gold
