Bipasha Dutt

Motherly love is considered supreme
It is commonly held in high esteem

To some love is a sweet affection
...

The sky still looks dark like night.
Sun is not yet in sight.
Slowly dawn finally breaks
And the amber light spreads
...

...

...

Though the lotus shares a bond
With the muddy and murky pond,

Yet lotus is holy and precious,
...

Life and death make me wonder
Thoughts upon which I often ponder

What keeps the cycle of life going?
...

My heart hums like bees
And flutters like butterflies,
Blooms like the blossoms
And sings like the cardinals -
...

The sunlight,
Softly removes the blanket of snow
To awaken earth from winter's sleep
...

In the unknown dark abyss of mind
When gloom and frustration twined
Which you oftentimes couldn't escape
Those things clothed in black drape
...

It was during my childhood,
May be at the age of nine,
I experienced something unusual,
Something difficult to define
...

From my debut book "Fleeting Moments: haiku on nature"

the silvery moon
reflects on a placid lake
...

From my debut book "Fleeting Moments: haiku on nature"

sudden gust of wind
petals of cherry blossoms
...

From my debut book "Fleeting Moments: haiku on nature"

fluorescent green leaves
peep out of their covering -
...

You hover over garden of thoughts -
Overflowing with nectar of emotions
And from buds of imagination,
Thousands of ideas blossom.
...

an iridescent
dragonfly hovers nearby
...

From my debut book "Fleeting Moments: haiku on nature"

a sunny spring day
pair of white swans are paddling
...

From my debut book "Fleeting Moments: haiku on nature"

a long spell of rain
has at last come to a halt
...

cotton candy floats
all around the atmosphere
dollops of ice cream
on trees, buildings, cars and streets -
...

Just as raindrops moist the parched earth
And vegetation grows without dearth -

All we need is a compassionate heart,
...
