Shell
Snail
Carrying always with her
Her safety, her protection
Call it
Her home
She goes anywhere
And yet always at home!
And
I leave my home behind
Worrying about it when away,
Return to it every evening
To be at home!
I wonder what a strange creature this
Why does she have to carry whole home with her?
And
She wonders what an animal this
Hardly at home!

To Mother Nature
To Mother Nature
Let me
Toast and drink to
Her Goodness
For I feel loved by her
No matter
How I destroy
And disturb the balance
Of her vital elements
For my small comforts
And
Yet pretend to be ignorant,
Both of my acts
And her love!

Inbox
Inbox
As sun sets
And day is about to end
Memories like chirping
Of returning birds
Fill the emptiness.
They never go far for long
From their home in warmth of gray cells
Hoping to find new lease of life
From grand children abroad
Or some old friends
I check my Inbox once again
Only to find more junk mails
Chirping is louder now
Sun may soon set
It will be quiet

Dip in Depths
Dip in Depths
I have been a seeker
Since many years
Since many lives
It used to be Books
I will dig in
Then lectures of Masters & Gurus
But all told me what was known
It brought no change
In silence,
In its depth
Revealed are new dimensions
Knowing
Got different meaning
Words fail me, but I can say
It comes to you in depth of silence
And you do not seek it
You just be there and receive it
Every time I take a dip in depths
And be there,
It comes in many forms
Like deep water beings of different sizes, shapes and colors
Touch me, feel me,
Some enter in to me, to remain in me
And become part of me.
With every dip
I am different

Innocence
INNOCENCE
When child,
String–box phone were miracle
How does sound travel l through thread?
Found them amazing
As a grownup
I know how it works
Not a miracle
Rainbows,
Seed sprouting to become a plant,
Stars, rain…….
Beautiful, fascinating but
Logic says: not a miracle
Space outside is understood
Space within is different
What keeps me going?
What makes me react?
or act?.......
…….?????
Inner Child is in awe!
Innocence is awakened
Now, sees life in everything,
Every being,
Every where, in or out,
Every moment is now a miracle!
*
Logic of Adult pushed aside
Ruling is innocence of Child
Miracles seen every moment

Waiting
Waiting
I can be irresponsible
Yet
Sun rise every morning
Rivers flow
Sea is contained
Flowers blossom
Love float
When will I begin to be responsible?
or
Am I waiting for more confirmations
That He loves me?
When will I opt for His love
And not my small comforts?
--
Childhood passed
Child within still play
Craving love

Muse
What is it
That has made eyes to twinkle,
Brought new life in limbs,
Smile on face,
Made heart to dance?
Head looking down Swing up
to
to
Explore vastness of sky?
Legs are taping
Body swinging in rhythm,
What is it?
What is it
That has driven depression from mind
Away by miles and
Transformed life into a
Celebration?
Whatever,………………please stay.
