I have been writing some poems in Hindi for a while now.. the first ever poem was written by me when I was a student of Ninth standard at Kendriya Vidyalaya Port Blair..
The second poem was composed much later during my stay at Anand Bhavan.. Vigyaan ki Pooja hogi.. somewhere around 1985-1986..
My poems are available at my website at the following link..

I consistently try to keep the language as simple as is feasible without an impact on the intent of what I want to say..
माँ तो आखिर माँ होती है
मेरी या तेरी या फिर किसी और की
कैसे माँ से भिन्न भला माँ हो सकती है
सोलह आने सच है - माँ तो आखिर माँ होती है

How does she know when you hide a cigarette from her during the early college days.
How does she guess the girlfriend in your life.
How does she know what you will eat at a particular hour.
How does she know when you have had a bad day at work.

एक पथ पर चल रहे हैं
है एक सी ही चांदनी
धूप भी उतनी ही लगती
और हवा सम मन लुभाती
...
होश मेरे उड़ गये
अल्फाज़ भी थे खो गये
जब देखता हूं यह गरीबी
या कहूं इतनी फकीरी
