HELPLESSNESS

Not a day without
begging gods to solve problems--
faith in helplessness

SULTRY HEAT

She goes out
into sultry heat--
feeding time


--R.K.SINGH

MANGOES

Yellow mangoes
still hanging after the storm
sunny backyard

--R.K.SINGH

Reluctant to walk
over stone chips on the road:
cracked-soled shoes

Reciting
my nightly woes
no one hears

HIBISCUS

Full bloomed hibiscus
bowing before the sun--
morning prayers

TIPTOE

Transparent
in a one-piece dress
she tiptoes

GRANDSON

Treading with
spring feet my grandson
now nine months
