Mixed Shades

Mixed Shades

Old songs, reminders, promises...

Melodies swing away to glory

A battery recharged for the night

A casket of hope, of boredom, of anxiety...

Fringes of toil, of revival, of love


A sudden utterance of ‘love you’

An unused rugged pillow

Affairs, beauty, novelty

A cashmere shawl wrapped on a beggar

A roadside vendor of hot momos

A girl, small and sullen

A table made of tea-tree

A window opening towards a wall

A cosmic string of earthly control


Dominance, flattery, and lies

Austere faces of the sunburnt cheeks

A baby’s sleeping face!!
