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

Love’s Lure
Clad in
designer togs
heady perfume
Smoldering
with allure
enflaming
Hooked
Don Juan
Hovered
fluttering
Crooning
swansong
swaggering
Fatal finale
Sensuous, slow
dance of death
at love’s altar
Immolating self
in complete surrender
Kindled, crumbles
Purified spirit
fire tested
takes wing

Fire And Water
Fire And Water
Fire And Water
Fire
With togetherness remains in heart
I consigned his remains to flames
Amidst holy chants, stoic, tearless
Returning betwixt early dawn, night remains
We gathered purified remains-bones, ashes
Retrieving from dying embers’ slow burn to urn
**
Water
Journey through revolving door had begun
For final release of fire purified soul, bones
Immersing them reverently into holy waters
Fire
Shooting for a passage with no return
I consign myself daily to flames, chanting
Let true self remain, rest cinder a slow burn
Water
Immersing my being in bliss of his being
I drown daily in throes of forgetfulness binge
Connections lost, made, keeping me centered
Prayers In Motion
Prayers
Are
Yearnings
Salutations
Gratitude
Expelled
Expressed
Scrolled
Origami
Hands
Flags
Beads
Hung high
Pennants
Wheels
Poles
Covey of prayers
Winging upward
Buoyant blissfully
Candles

Om Mani Padme Hum

Sea Song
As sea song escaped from a sudden conch
Reminiscing of wonders gone
Possibilities of those to come
Heeding to be seeded
Decibels from back beyond
Power of mind
Mind power
Empowered
If will
Willing
Self
To
Perform
Mermaid
Possibilities
Evolving almost
Animated stuffed
Toys inanimate
Stories of travels
Time and beyond
All in the realm of
Possibilities, bud flowering
In tandem with eyes widening
Wonderment, small miracles
Flowering inscrutably, all the time
Tickling keen mind on eternal quest
