A tale told by a joker (devoid of sound and fury)

Accumulate not the woes,
O' oceanic eyes;
Nor the tiniest bejewelled drop,
From your reservoir, let slide.

For you're Hope, you're Dream,
To my dreary eyes, you're Gleam;
As raconteur, in your playful banter-
Life's brightest hue, my cherished theme.

Glow! Illuminate the night sky- my pole star,
With yesterdays and tomorrows, all afar;
An immortal speck on the Time's wall - deem,
The quixotic pair, a joker and his queen.

The Balance Sheet of my Life


A snapshot in time, 
This balance sheet of my life-
What assets, what liabilities? 
The Moving Finger presides;
Mere intangibles, to erect the sandcastles of hope?
And an inventory of defunct dreams? 
A cruel surmise.
