My paintings are a vivid reflection of landscapes, memories, and life experiences, each telling its own unique story. To me, art is more than expression—it’s a way to inspire, evoke emotion, and forge meaningful connections.

Seahorses

Seahorses

I used to dream for

wings to fly across

the seas that always

pull me to sit till

the twilight zone

hours when I wait for

waves to bring a bottle

with a treasure map to

find a hidden fortune

for one day I would

buy the Seahorses to

take me to secret islands..


there to wait until

I can find my God or

at least find a message

on the golden sands

washed by all the waters

of this universe in a

relentless cycle of life

I dread to awake to the

midnight moon raining

silver beams to read

the words of the prophet

that are written by fairies..


indeed there is an order

from the times in space

celestial battles gave

birth to the planet sun

supreme giver of light

to warm our eyes with

the best joy of nature

each breath we take makes

moments of silence but

there will be the seed

of man in this universe

till the Seahorses remain..

What Thoughts Do At Times

What Thoughts Do At Times

What Thoughts Do At Times

Whenever I remember you

it soothes my mind like

a Sufi song we used to

hear in the cafes

on the beaches of Goa

sitting in silence

watching the sun evaporate

into the the depths of the sea

and twilight paints the

skies with a myriad of hues

the sea gulls fly away

till we witness the birth

of a new moonrise....


it was a time without care

as we took our love

day by day to explore

new places and make friends

for a day or two hoping

to meet again someplace

new but maybe I was wrong

to chose stability leaving

you with a promise

for you had a way with

words but was there any

empathy in them...


now as we come to the

end of a long journey

your image still ignites

a desire to find how

you have fared in this

hiatus you always needed

to conquer to become

free from the storm of

my poetry for the dead

cannot read you said

to write more joyful

chapters where Sufi

saints make deserts bloom...
