Kiran Chaulagain
Enemy
I could not stand your sight
So I erected walls all around
You evidently missed me;
So you laid a staircase.
In a short while
You emerged in the form of the sun
Only then did I reckon
Why the sunflower
Gradually withers.
Journey
After the placenta got snapped
From the fetus
Man started reaming of conquering the moon
Wherefrom could the trees have learnt
To shuttle between the earth and the sun
Without moving their feet?
Relations 

To know what relations are
You turn to water
Which, at the slightest touch by the rays of the sun,
Soars to mingle in it
Caring least about its existence.
