Porcelain


Porcelain to boast
But fail to hide
Real intent

Invisible Source


Invisible source

 

Dark chilling nights of winter,
Harsh burning sun of May,
Dry spells and floods
Powerful wind, storms,






Come and go.

See endure and flourish
Ones who





Stay

Rooted.             


                                  

A New Star



A new star noticed
Blinking…
Getting brighter nights after nights.

Inkling was
It will gradually become so bright
That India will
Be seen in its full glory
Again.

Thank
Government of India,
For their action yesterday night
Accelerated the process.

NOW


NOW

 It was there,
Always.

Not seen
Not found
Not felt
Yet there.

Like
Pearls in the ocean,
Diamonds in earth.

Like 
Breathing in and out.

As clutters fall off
What has remained
Was
Always there.

Call it
Acceptance,
Truth,
Manifestation.

Always there,
Experiencing
Now.

One Single Impression : Rambling


This and that
Here and there
I, me,
If, what not, but……
On and on…….

Efforts
Efforts
Efforts

to make the presence felt.

Point is
There is no point.

Got the point?

Exhibition and Show off.



Birds glide,
Child’s playfulness
Beauty of nature
So divine….
Seen and even sometimes displayed,
But never shown off.

Why do I strive to exhibit
My wealth
My power
My beauty
My intelligence
My skills?
*
When efforts to show off cease,
Seen easily  
Is real being – divinity.

LOVE


LOVE

Like a fresh breeze,
Coming without any notice
and stoping without any,
It blossoms on its own.

With love around,
Celebration is on.
Heart gets wings and
Soul is content,
Sunrise and sunsets are more colourful,
Moon more charming
And fragrance in air enchanting.

It is His grace that visits you
No one has control over it.

When in love you trust totally
But love cannot be trusted to be there, always.
So tender……
Efforts to retain it are like holding back
Cool breeze that lift your spirits. 
                *
Lasting are
Marriages
Contracts
Relationships
Understandings……
Right efforts can keep it going
…..With cool breeze refreshing your heart often,
If you are
Open  and  Lucky.

Border


Border

Crossing the line
Was dreadful
But not crossing was killing her.
She had to.
She did.

Will you hold guilty a cuckoo
For singing her heart out
On a tree
in the hospital compound
With ‘Silence please’ board?

Everyone crosses
You
Me
All
Yet cast stones at others.

HE gave a seamless world.

Place





So, we meet tomorrow again?
Where??
‘My place.’
“Your place?  No, my place”.
‘My place’
“No , my place”
.............
……….
It goes on…….






It is just that they want to hang on
With each other,
Not wanting to leave.

Deep in their mind is a place
Which is neither hers nor his,
It is a place that they can call ‘ours’.
               
                *

Scene is not so romantic
For the waitress waiting on their table,
….Other guests are in queue.

One Single Impression : Shackles


Within reasons!!

Reasons demand ‘no, not done
‘Stay within boundaries’

She remains confined.
Within walls of reasons
Maintaining balance.

She is an
Emotional eater,
Exercises regularly to maintain herself

Sometimes, though not often,
is seen
Staring far away………..,
Deep into the sky.

……but returns quickly
Within boundaries.

She is known as
A good homemaker.
