Dodoitsu- Shreeram Shrestha
1.
A sweet bitter candy
Licked to the extent
Didn't contend the hunger
Caused a numbness.
2.
Silently took a secret path
Sought to grab the opportune
A prick so sharp
Closed my eyes with a sigh.
3.
In the mid shaped vase
Overly covered with flowers
The greedy Black Bee
Kissed them sweet.
4.
Grounded an opportunity
Entertained fully on swing
Covered in sweat
Lovely exhaustion.
5.
A dream well nourished
Broke like glass
Turned like the Eklavya
Difficult was survival .
6.
A guest for a couple of days
Devoted myself to her service
Forgot everything
And now the pride is lost .
7.
A shrewd Cat
Habituated to mischief
With hung head in the corner
The reign of silence.
8.
A desperate soul
Life a heavy burden
Slithering sad mind
A retired bulky elephant.
9.
Consuming oneself
Thought to illuminate
Turned ashes
A strange tale .
