Taj Mahal
Posted by bhaskar benjamin on Nov 13, 2008 in Poetry, Poetry Painting Combination, Travel Poetry
Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal …one of the seven wonders…

…a symbol of  eternal love…

A tribute in stone….from an emperor …to his beloved…

PEGOMAG wishes to laud one of the most beautiful buildings in the entire world !

Those who have seen it…would know…and agree…

…for others….we wish and hope that you see it…once…at least !

…and here is an excerpt from “TAJ MAHAL….a poetry “

When I saw the Taj….. yes ! when I first saw the Taj Mahal….
I felt that there was something inside in me ….I wish I could tell…
that wanted to leap out….and scream……
…….yes….it is a dream….. !!!

My inside was in torment….yet in peace of a kind…
My pulse raced……I was spellbound…..but it was …
also a happiness…..strange & un-defined !!!

Krishna and his flute

Krishna and his flute…

…inseparable lovers…
…while the notes are haunting… enchanting…
…and the lute player….
…deep in passion…unaware..!
…listeners are left helpless…..

Living Circus…..
Posted by bhaskar benjamin on Nov 2, 2008 in Poetry, Poetry Painting Combination
Living Circus

One day, sitting in a circus tent

I thought of life, thoughts came and went

Each act, it seems is thoroughly rehearsed

They may seem daring, but all players, well-versed

the secret is the rhythm, the background music

each note is a cue, when to drop, when to pick

For tight rope walking, we need a big pole

And walking on thin air ? is a much simpler role

For general amusement, wild beasts are tamed

But beasts are beaten , at their own games and shamed

A girl is seen rotating, few knives are thrown

But the knife-thrower’s inner thoughts are seldom known

The trapeze artists swing high and then catch

The discarded swing of the previous batch

Music allows a certain grace and some beauty

But a net is provided for additional safety

The spot light is focussed always on players

But it is the band that directs, trick is truly theirs

All that the spectators see is the glitter and the glow

Background music is the key, this they don’t know

The only true artists are the clowns in this circus

They know each trick, but fumble, just to amuse us

The only true artists, these clowns do perform

On sheer impulses, not to any music, any form !

Brush with Poetry
Posted by bhaskar benjamin on Oct 25, 2008 in Features, Poetry Painting Combination

Dear Readers:

While we were in the process of finalizing our first issue of Pegomag

I thought I should share with you …..one of my favorite ideas….

Thematic poetry-painting combination

Brush with Poetry - Colored Vision

Colored Vision

If green is the color of leaves…it cant be the color of envy!

If blue is the color of sky…how can I ever feel blue ?

If red is the color of a glowing sunset…how can red stand for danger….

If black is the color of a starry night…how can black bring bad luck…

If white is the color of a new-born day…white cannot stand for mourning !

All colors reflect life and beauty….let us not simply color our vision
