The Tree…

     
                  



    Grounded well deep into the soil,
             Tall and humble,
              Fresh and agile,

                             Swinging for joy… in storm and breeze,
                                  Rooted firm with Trust and Peace…
   
                                                Her Tree of Love,
                                                 Nurtured in care,
                                        With the Droplets, of His Grace…!

Yearn…


Then… as a child,

They loved me and cared for.
They happily received and accepted,
My love & my flaw…
They heartily admired and enjoyed,
My goodness & my naughtiness…

No power plays… or ego clash…

…Now that I am grown up,
     Why are they different...?


My love for them is still the same…

Will I ever get them back…?
Will they ever understand me?

The yearning of a grown up child…!

A Life... to Live




Waiting…


Waiting… Seeking…
For things to change better…

Silence… haunting
Loneliness… killing
A Life… so still…!

A ray of light as entering into me
With the Sun rise

Waiting…Cease…
For things to change or not…

Silence…singing
Loneliness…smiling
A Life…to live…!

Transition




In transit...


Passage of moments,
From this to next…

Each moment in transit, as it will…

Me… just being with the truth,
Right now… the way as it looks…

Silently… 'my' role getting over,
…For the 'witness' to take over...

In a transition so subtle… so still…

Expansion



Expansion


As the hard cover of Ego melts upon
Letting the Self… out in the open
Allowing it to slowly mellow down…
Though is a pain, but not in vain,
For
This is the moment when
  Love blossom…
And miracles happen…

Renewal...


One Life to Live…


Wandering in blind alleys,
As the countdown begins…

A pause…

A plunge… into Space deep and cool
Real big world than the one there out…

Discovering new regions within my soul
Exploring every bit as a whole…

…Walking on this royal road…
Bonds freed, Senses calmed…

Now

Few involvements, very few wants …
Few duties yet to perform………

Only Finales
No more Renewals…!

A Weed




A Weed…


Once
The most adorned part
In your garden…
Adding
To its beauty and life…!

Now
Only a Weed
To be thrown out…

For
Some One else

A Glimpse...



Love…

Feeling uncomfortable in the pompous crowd,
She held his hand…
His mere look enough to comfort her!
***

Nature…

Brand new slippers causing discomfort…
Decides to walk bare footed
And the cool wet grass comforts her!
***

A Deal……….

Then you weren’t comfortable…
Paying the amount from below the table
Now as an officer on comfort cushion… other side of the table!
***

Comfort…

Though request for pardon denied
The truth being revealed…
He felt a bit relieved!
***

Surrender…

Tensed up by thoughts of agony and pain…
Confessing to the Silence deep within
Tremendous Peace sets in!

Congrats!



Essence of Life……

Love to Live…..
To Give & Forgive
And  Live to Love!



One way to live………..

Participating in a Celebration…
Adding an element of joy & Passion
A Tribute to Creation and Jubilation!



One life to live………….

Philosophy of Life.....
Is not what we learn and live
But that we live and learn!

Search


Search


In dark
Grappling,
Eyes tired,
In a search futile,
Struggling for life,
Yearning for the light.
Still hopes alive.

walking His way...


                                                             walking His way...



Walking on a road
That leads to Him…
...And led by Him…

Despite the pain and hurdles,

Manifests
Joy
Peace
And contentment….


Drifting on to a different path,
Wandering in search of new…

A ride so smooth and alluring,
Is only a mirage…?

Manifests
Grief
Anguish
And emptiness……..
