LOVE OF MY LIFE

In the soothing light of the breaking dawn

I see the beauty of your loving eyes

I feel your passion flowing

 Tumbling and flowing with the mountain streams 

I feel your love roaring

Roaring with the ocean’s incessant waves

 I feel your love’s ever sweet embrace

Embracing me with the morning breeze

In this everlasting beauty; of the love in your heavenly eyes

Let me lose my self  ! Lose myself to you!

Oh Love of my life!

Make me one with you!

LUMINOUS SUNSHINE

Brilliantly beaming in the cold winter sky

Silently shining in the heavens so high

Oh luminous sunshine! 

Do you ever see the reflections of  your sentient light ? 

Shining without thought ,and shining without restrain

 Feeling no worry, and feeling no pain 

Yet sentient life ; you solemnly sustain ! 

Green smiles of plants in their lucent worship

Wandering thoughts of man in heathen gossip

Lurking games of the predator and prey

Invisible cells budding, in rotting clay

 Sentient  sunshine! You shine and sustain!

Oh luminous sunshine in the sky so bright

Cant you see the reflections, of  your  life-giving light !

AMAZING MAIZE

Kernels of sweet gold,and blades so green!

King of the grasses you always been!

Oh! Amazing maize! How mighty you seem!

Plains and mountains, you've spread your seed

Taming the farmer, to help you breed

                                                              

Forming bread, milk and eggs; and miserable meat

You feed my flesh, with all I eat

From plastics and fuel; to candy and clothes

You build them all,  from  thin air!

Oh amazing maze !!


Domesticator of  the human race! 

How splendid  is thy kernelled face !

                                      

REFLECTION OF YOU

Brilliant sunshine on a misty morning

 

Reflecting the joy in my nascent soul

The stillness of the clear blue skies

Reflecting in the calmness of my mind 

The fluffy silence of the floating clouds

Reflecting  in my sentient serenity

The music played by the comforting breeze 

Reflecting in the symphony of my heart

Oh , this wonderful universe!

Reflecting in me with so much beauty! 

Oh , Master of the unfathomable 

 Am I a just a reflection of  You ! 

THE CHRISTMAS TURKEY

Oh dainty turkey! Did you ever know?

Till  blessed Christmas , is all you’ll grow!

Living each day ; just become fatter

But for your flesh, does your life really  matter?

Day after day, they lovingly feed ! 

Filled with a kindness, and a  hidden greed

Alas on Christmas , they leave you with cold  feet!

But do they ever ask you, before they chop you to eat ?

Day after day you knew the  friendly trend!

But did you know your meaty end? 

Oh dainty turkey! could you ever know?

Whats cooking in fate's hidden stove !  

THE FIVE HINDRANCES

Oh lonesome mind, where do you wander?

You have scaled up the mightly mountain of mindfulness

Yet at the lofty peak of wisdom, you stray at mere pittances!

Oh lonesome wandering mind!

Be thou beware of the five hindrances! 

Fogged by form; an empty treasure

Luring lust, and sensual pleasure

Makes you crave, and make you suffer

Luring lust and sensual pleasure  

Oh lonesome wandering mind! 

Beware of the first of the hindrances! 

The masters of life’s most deplorable state

 Ill will, anger, and morbid hate

They form and fuel, every negative trait

And Lead the world, to an apocalyptic fate

Ill will, anger, and morbid hate

Oh lonesome wandering mind ! 

Beware of the second of the hindrances! 

Motivational inertia, so easy to harbor

Laziness, sloth and torpor

Makes you slip and makes you sleep

Makes creep when you should leap

Laziness sloth and Torpor

Oh, lonesome wandering mind! 

Beware of  the third of the hindrances! 

Rippling the placid mind; gurgling it  in a flurry

Restlessness anxiety and pointless worry

Kills the now and breaks the merry

Ruminations of negativity  in an anxious slurry

Restlessness anxiety and pointless worry

Oh lonesome wandering mind ! 

Beware of the fourth of the hindrances! 

A blunted knife of reason; filled with naivety and flout

Untested beliefs and unreasonable doubts

Pointless skepticism and hasty conjecture

  

With mindless superstition and carelessness that sprouts

  

Untested belief and unreasonable doubts

Oh lonesome wandering mind!

Beware of the fifth of the hindrances ! 

Oh lonesome mind! Don’t you wander!

You have scaled up the mighty  mountain of mindfulness

Yet at the lofty peak of wisdom, don’t you stray!

Oh lonesome  wandering mind!

Be thous beware of the five hindrances

Fogged by form; an empty treasure

Luring lust and sensual pleasure

The masters of life’s most deplorable state

Ill will, anger and morbid hate

Motivational inertia, so easy to harbor

Laziness sloth and Torpor

Ruminations of negativity  in an anxious slurry

Restlessness anxiety and pointless worry

A bunted knife of reason; filled with naivety and flout 

Untested beliefs and unreasonable doubts

Oh lonesome wandering mind

As you scale the mighty mountain of mindfulness 

Be thou beware of the five hindrances !! 

WILD FLOWER

Oh budding wild flower

Unfolding into unknown reality

Do you ever see the colors of life?

Not potted by concepts, or watered by love

You smile and sway; without wondering why or how

Hounded by flies and swarmed by bees

What nurtures you, but the coldness of the breeze!

With Petals reaching out to the unseen heavens

Without thoughts and minds to hinder you

Oh budding wild flower

How happy you seem !

DANCING LARVAE

Dancing larvae in the palace pond

Look what you become!

 

Little monsters driven by unfortunate fate

Feeding remorselessly on royal blood

 The royal blood of the king!

Oh winged warriors of dirt and disease

Even if you change form, and choose to reform

Even if you become noble in trait

Can you ever become, the almighty king?

Ideas and passions, you may have many

But how limited is your destiny!

Oh ,dancing larvae in the palace pond

Just drink your blood and be merry!

MOONLIT SMILE

Silver moonlight in the silence of the night

Shy clouds courting, the moon in flight

Warmed up hearts, and a moonlit smile

Glowing with love, and shining with light

Dark shadows and sorrows  disappear 

As love filled hearts, beat in joyful delight

As your moonlit smile enlightens the silent night

All is well, in love and life !

BAT'S SONIC VIEW

The wall of music, in dark sounds of green

The noisy world, beyond what is seen

The Bat’s sonic view, of the  musical sky

 Of  echoes of creatures, fleeting by

Images and shades, of pitch and tone

Sonograms of life, and obstacles unknown

A puff of speech in grey-scale of silence

Colorless minds in harmonic resonance

Redness of red and the blueness of blue

The Qualia of life; a  mystical brew

You may look ; and you may  even see

But a  blinded bat can  you ever be ?
