How not to be now

How not to be now ?

Dew fell on the earth

A drop on a thousand specks

Sand extended thirst

Radiating through body

Hunger extended its siege

 

Sun rising dried dew

Scattered like pearls of still life

Pallor out of time

Shadows of me unbound stared

Out of a grey timeless void

 

Earth compounded waves

Sun tirelessly drew close

Cool air exhaled mist

Nebulous mind’s frozen sight

Pursued night into the light

 

Sunflowers lost core

Empty crevices staring

Taking in no sun

Shielded from rays I ponder

How not to be now? Tell me

going home3

Flowers bloomed sunkissed

With the glory of mornings

Shining in the dark

Iridescent lips whisper

Secrets of a fleeting night

.

Sheltering rains poured

Blue lakes’ crimson waters flowed

Violet locks swirled

One lasting embrace of love

That outlived journey onward

.

I opened my veins

To an existence that leads

Beyond this unreal

Reaching further into truth

In a place where dark meets light

.

Sun bled tomorrow

On a waning, withered cheek

That spoke quiet sleep

Winter’s calm all of ice clad

Welcomed soul’s eternal flight

Birds call out your names

Shrill and piping psalmodies

A love’s litany

My heart beats your thoughts

Endless remembrance of pulse

.

Earth out of axis

Flung helpless out of balance

Craves your healing touch

Soul in unison cries out

For the waves of your embrace

.

White lambs flock silent

Into darkness of gulley

A shrine’s offering

I walk, my own sacrifice

Into churning dark tempests

.

The peacock cries loud

Shredded tail plucked one by one

Past token of love

I search for your lost totems

Within every lost Feather

.

Lands scorched by heat waves

Search for streams to quench their thirst

Though water falters

Chilled by your hesitation

Mind heeds not scorching embers

.

Seedlings struggle out

The cracks they can escape through

Mutating matter

All within transforms tireless

Inside out and dark to light

.

The open skies cry

For your long sullen absence

While you watch unmoved

In agony I writhe on

Take me back home for I die

The waves of transformation

The waves of transformation

shivashakti3      

Echoes of silence

Ring through the night’s thickened dark

As the owl hoots on

Wisdom, knowledge, ringing knells

Of death of time and its birth

 

Light shimmers through dark

Iridescent pallid shine

All at once strong, weak

Bosom deep with shallow tides

Joins dance of listless shadows

 

Dark and light they play

The waves of transformation

Talk me into else

As inside one listens thrilled

To whispering lisping tongue

 

Change will stand sullen

Until you’ve explored fully

Your own opposite

You have never been yourself

Nor will ever come to be

Seven skies, veils and stages

Seven skies, veils and stages

The night breathed darkness

No clouds barred a starless sky

Cloaked in still silence

Muffled thoughts in hooded mind

Spoke not inner wanderings

Om2

Dropping seven veils

In Earth’s anticipation

Of oncoming floods

Eye looked upon surging light

Soul bracing itself opened

Om2

Photons flew through air

Sky split with bursts of sunlight

Mornings’ flames lit hearts

Fire branded souls’ renewal

The Earth lifted its blue skirts

Om2

Birds chirping shrill, clear

Chant seven, seven, seven

Chest heaving with sighs

Whispering soul echoes soft

Seven skies, veils and stages

In the Earth’s stillness

In the Earth’s stillness

The seagulls mewed on

Melancholy in their voice

Mere semblance of choice

Bodies may misrepresent

Inner choice of mind and soul

 

Tides renewed highs, lows

Ever returning to source

Where deep meets shallow

Inward, outward, light and dark

Weak, strong; one coin two faces

 

Sand seeped through my toes

Neverlasting steadiness

Of fading times’ strength

Wills willed hard, souls clung, boughs broke

Earth shivered out of motion

 

In the Earth’s stillness

Sand hovered and waters flowed

Winding winds rose high

Carefree thoughts wound down my mind

As summer’s whispers blew strong

The grass grows greener

The grass grows greener

27-28 April 2015

timelapse16

The grass grows greener

In a little hidden patch

Of sunken garden

Green with moss etched in the night

Twilight thoughts of never more

 

Lilies swarmed the place

Where daffodils once shone bright

In sunny fevers

A chill in the air stilled suns

Bringing morrows of crisp minds

 

Water flooded land

Reeds grew as marshes now crept

Where grass once swayed light

Blowing in photons that flew

Across distant skies came change

 

Flowers crept to shade

Blue, pink, yellow in trenches

Colliding safely

Thoughts rushing in my mind slid

To forefathers’ distant lands

 

Regal blue upright

Plumbago braved summer heat

Extremities crowned

Bejewelled synapses lead

To sights of distant deep blue

 

The grass grows greener

In a growing patch ablaze

With moon’s sunny rays

Blue gold red etched in the light

Dawn shines on forevermore

Once upon a time we loved

Birds nuzzled in pairs

As they basked in springtime sun

Their sharp beaks entwined

Like a thorn you, my twin, reached

Delving in my hidden suns

 

Seeds scattered on ground

Fed upon by winged ones

Wilted nurturing

Chest that consoled you once dried

Ne’er bosom you rested on

 

Birds flew to soft nest

That twig by twig they composed

Like an ode to love

Songs of yonder golden days

My fleeting thoughts keep astray

 

Moon and sun relayed

Lessons blue gold red glitter

Distant hearts throbbed still

Once upon a time we loved

Did we think of time’s decay?

As I then breathe out serene

As I then breathe out serene

 serene3

 Sunsets, sunrises

Engorging landscape’s colours

Vibrant pinks and reds

Laminated crimson thoughts

Soak inner mind velveteen

 

White light, indigo

Relay inviting the hues:

Coloured dawn, twilight

Alternating birth and death

A still universe expands

 

Dark shifts into light

White noise brims with shadows grey

A new shade is born

DNA’s evolution

Takes survival to new heights

 

Swarming like anthills

Living tapestry of green

Centipedes scatter

Hundreds of bulbs in mind light

Thoughts of saved moisture in frame

 

Tireless bees construct

A beehive for goddess green

A golden prison

Ivory isolation

Replicated new designs

 

Multiplying cells

Expand into cramped body

That heaved for more space

Renewals in body rise

To the calling of new youth

 

Germinating plants

Pierced through soil and grew free

Of alterations

No chemicals pervade me

As I then breathe out serene
