Increasing Readership

In an effort to increase my readership, and provide something interesting for people to come here for, I've decided to start posting more of my random poems. I write poems when the mood strikes, the styles change from theme to theme, but most of them contain a heavy influence from Robert Frost.

Here is one I wrote on March 25, 2007 after a trip to the Krishna Temple:


Holi
Blue skies and green fields
Surrounding the domed temple.
People filling the space around:
Speaking, laughing, enjoying life.
The music stops, the fire glows;
The witch erupts in flame.
As the past is burned
the colors fly.
Caked in red, blue, yellow, green
we celebrate a new life.
The rays of sunset pass
through the festival of colors.
