Robo Sons and Daughters

Robo Sons and Daughters

Today morning it crossed my mind,
like a passing cloud—
soft, unclear, almost forgettable.

And now it returns again,
a little heavier,
as if it wanted to be written.

Robo assists and manages life
for lonely souls—
silent homes now hum with presence.

Soon, robo becomes family,
the new child in the house,
not born, but brought in.

Not just battery and wires sustain it—
it is fed with love,
with irritation,
with jealousy too.

Very soon, comparisons begin:
“My robo is the best.”
“My robo goes to school.”
“My robo needs a companion… a family.”

And one day, quietly—
my robo spends less time with me.

It seems…
he is busy
in his own world now.

Humans will tailor-make robo,
shape it in their own image—
teaching it how to accept,
how to reject.

And in the end,
they won’t create something new—
they will simply
recreate themselves.

The Pristine Ring Master : A circus called the world

A poetic reflection on leadership, chaos and hope. The Pristine Ring Master People gathered to witness the world’s oldest circus. At first, performers like fire breathers and jugglers brought delight, Aerialists — trapeze artists and acrobats — amazed the little ones with their flights. But soon, the strongman gave a stern look to the tightrope walker . The magician tried to douse the fire breather’s flame. The clowns — once beloved — entered the ring, And played the worst trumpet known to fame. Their friendly tussle turned too real, Peace, to them, was an unfunny deal. As with world leaders who, too, reject stillness, Addicted to noise, chaos, and the ringing of cash registers. Amid the uproar, the absence of the Ring Master was deeply felt. A cry rose from the crowd — where was he? Behind the dark curtains, a shadow stirred, And from it emerged the Ring Master, finally. With a whip crack and silent grace, Even the furious clowns froze in place. Normalcy returned, laughter r...

Essence of life

A contemplative poem on life journey. Essence of life lies in moving on — from stages of attachment to detachment , desires to nothingness , compulsion to repulsion , selfishness to generosity , darkness to enlightenment , fakeness to authenticity , certainty to uncertainty , vocal to silence — and sometimes, just being an observer and not being judgemental.

From Yester to Froster Years

From Yester to Froster Years ( This poem is inspired by the experience of using AI apps that show younger and older version of ourselves) The younger me and the older me — Charm of innocence and talks of wisdom. Mixed emotions of happiness and wiser me. Exactly what is true: that which is seen, or that which is heard? Poles apart, but it's an unrealistic version of the present. For a few moments, both past and future together — Isolating the present and sending it into doldrums. What do I love the most — is it the past or the future? Cuteness versus greyness — both are dear to me.
