Barren Womb

The Temple has been lying vacant- devoid of  Deity

 for no amount of faith could install the Idol of the Supreme

It took ages to build up the place of worship

The pristine space where prayers are met, wishes are granted

No matter how precious stones were meticulously embedded 

adorning the beautiful edifice!

Devoid of the Idol - the shrine seems deserted!



It took years of love and patience to nurture a dream 

Dream of Life, Laughter and Happiness

Is it Mother Nature's curse to deprive some of the joy of motherhood

that the womb is lying idle - waiting for the new life 

to spring up fountain of Joy, quenching the thirst of famished Motherhood!


Unheard prayers are still pleading in whimpers

It is believed Miracles do happen in utmost faith!

The fallen bird with unhatched egg bears the brunt of  fate

The unborn child is craving for Life to celebrate

The womb carries the burden of crucifying pain 

without the labor to deliver it lies lifeless, barren, abandoned!
