Shining Moments

Shining moments

Flower’s beauty fading unnoticed
Acts of kindness in cloak of secrecy
Shining moments before oblivion

Falling tears dried
Hope’s flame rekindled
Rain kept on falling

She ironed the creases in her dress
Wondered about creases in her life
Nonchalant began whistling

Repentance self flagellation
Spirit unscathed mere witness
“One” reality, smokescreen duality

Passages

(picture by suja sukumaran)

Passages

 

Of history’s

mysteries

Conniving

Chicanery 

 

cupid for some

enemy for another

bridge for one

chasm of another 

 

Musical notes

Bell’s tolls

mom’s cajoles

dad’s scolds

  

aroma of feasts

bobbing heads

smell of fear

ashen cowardice 

 

holy chants

escaping incense

runaway senses

reminiscing 

 

passages of time

traversed eternally

ever spanning

countless lifetimes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Frozen Music

fissured earth’s frail green flag

 

chopped stump’s octopus limbs

 

war ravaged bodies, a heart beating

 

browbeating dominance, spirit unwilling

 

a lark in my garden singing

 

nature’s breathtaking vista, returning breath

 

truth is that virus, no gun can kill

 

beholding nature’s handiwork, frozen music

Morning Pick Me Up

Infusion=transfusion=diffusion=nirvana

Beckoning warmed cup
Quality tea leaves
Saucer with dash of
Cinnamon, cardamom, clove
Boiling water on spiced leaves
Drip drip drip slowwww
Aroma rising
In tandem
With
Spirit
Sip sip sip
Lethargy
Slip slip slip
Spirit
lifts lifts lifts
nirvana
I do not hate
Any
one
Any
more

Thought Spill – 2

Father time
Mother Nature
Walk in tandem
And then not
Womanly is she
Rags changing
Green to white
Browns to orange
Mood imbued
Their offspring
Rooted or not
Traipse often
Baulking
Accepting
Meditating
Perishing
Returning
Reinvented
Emerging thru’
Revolving door
Eternally
Cyclically
Allied to
Father time
Mother Nature
Nurturing
