ETERNITY

Whirling and Twirling

In celestial harmony

I am, eternity!

Perfect in position

Guided by precision

Within me!

The Whole of existence comes to be !

The sun, the moon; the earth and stars

Are but merely my manifestation

From me

You too shall arise

In me

You all, shall finally abide

I am What I am

And I shall always be

Ever eternal!

The Ever eternal   particle of dust! 

LOVE

Here and now

Forever more

Love!

Rest, my friend

Doesn't really matter!

EYES SHOW

My soul speaks

My eyes show !

Oh my beloved!

Deep within!

Listen to my silence

Don’t you feel the Love? 

LEAKY PAIL

A leaky pail of water

Venturing into this desert of life!

Slowly and steadily I keep dripping!

Not knowing my final destination!

Knowing only my empty destiny

No water shall reach its home!

And all pails shall ultimately run dry!

Why is it still; I selfishly try to hoard water?

If only!

If only I could stop and share!

Let the thirsty souls drink!

And rejuvenate the dying!

Will not my pail be lighter?

Will not many ephemeral lives be brighter?

When the water runs dry and my pail is empty

Tell me! Oh Foolish mind

How will ‘I” alone leave a trace?

STRANGE PASTURE

Strange is this circumstance

Oh lord!

Where have you lead me?  

Hanging by a cliff for dear life

A rope you gave and saved me

 Now as I hang!

Hang  by it and pull myself up

Little did I know!  

As I tug at these precious cords

A noose tightens over my beloved’s neck

Every moment I cling on

Ever so tightly the noose becomes

Tell me oh lord!

In this strange pasture that have you lead me

How can I still hold on? 

CLIP

Shining in a jeweled corner

 Adorning your enchanting smile

Holding back

Holding up

All Straying   strands

Perfect in place

Salient in position

Oh! Pretty clip

why do you make my  mind slip !  

SHOOTING STAR

Flashing through the night sky

Like a shooting star in the dark

Oh Mysterious one

Who are you?

In a moment, you came

In another you vanished

 Yet the glow of your bedazzling eyes

 Still lingers in me

In my grey scaled life of emptiness

You brought in sentient colours

To my pointless existence

You brought salient meaning

When my wounded soul was dying  

You breathed me back to life

Leaving no trace behind!

Now where are you?

Oh Mysterious one!

My soul still seeks you!

What can I say to this world?

Knowing that you are deep within

 Yet seeking for you on the outside

How long can I fight myself?

How long can I fool myself?

Oh Mysterious one

Let me have another glimpse of you! 

NAMELESS FIRE

Alone in a crowd

As you smile in silence

Will you ever know?

What you really mean to me!

Maybe, you can see it my eyes

Maybe, you can see it when I smile

For words can never say

What I really feel!

Time has a reason

 Space has a meaning!

But only for the bounded!

Free in thought

Free in spirit

I am merely a heretic

 Unbound from convention

Untied from passion

Unshaken by suffering

‘I am’, truly free!

Yet, deep within this un-yearning heart

An unfettered fire rages

Tell me dear friend!

Will this nameless fire cease!

ONE STEP AT A TIME

Climbing lofty peaks

One step at a time

Distance is an illusion

Path, a mere figment

Destiny a simplification

Life, a foolish rationalization!  

The truth is here

Happiness is now

This moment is all there is

Oh!  Striving soul! Weary of climbing!

No more mountains; no more cliffs  

 Only just one step at a time!

FLAMING HEART

Love this deep

Love this vast

How much longer, can all this last!

How long can the universe keep smiling?

How long, can fragile threads hold its weight?

Out of nothing it came

Into nothingness, shall it not go?

A flaming heart!

Once shining and glowing !

Smothered by the clouds of time

Stomped by the boots of reality

Now just fleeting embers!

 Fleeting across the summer sky

Alive, blue and sparking!

Still keeping alive!

The once flamboyant flame of love! 

Oh! Flaming heart of mine!

Let not these blue embers die!
