Seek solace in solitude
There’s a world of silence
Mirrors the inner beauty
A reflective mind ponders
Enwrapped in the echoes
The mantra of eternal truth
Soul elevated to a stage
Sweet harmony of realization
Hymns of pure ecstasy
Pours through the ears as honey
Sweetening the existence
Shimmering light is kindled
An unusual radiance enthralls
Meanings of life deciphered
Gifted with moments of bliss

Poetry does not limit
Expands the consciousness
Beyond the realm of known
From the land of wilderness
Where many possibilities roam
So many ways to portray
Wildest of feelings and emotions
Poetry captures them
To release them to their freedom
Poetry does not limit
Poets get a new lease of life
With each poetry that’s written
Insignia of the muse remains etched
In the heart of the poet
Poetry does not limit

There’s an urgency to be busy
When Nature’s so calm
Trying to get ahead of the moment
Final denouement written by time

Everyone strives to make it real
Without the knowledge of reality
Truth shall never be revealed
Until we are void of all thoughts
Reality is in the cloak of nothingness

Among the weeds
There’s the resilient vine
It’s called the vine of lies
Wily climbers grips the wall
Slowly rearing its head
Aiming high always
Gaining foothold
Along the lonely walls
Cold and stony
Away from prying eyes
It’s an arduous trek
Lies spread slowly
Upwards
Clamoring for the roof
Caught unaware
By the wily ones
There’s no escape
From the lies
Not willing to let go
Even the weeds rejoice

Draw a line
Feel the boundary
Not to trip over
Or falter
Only a line
Yet, restricting
Undulating ground
No straight lines
We may try
To draw perfect lines
Futile attempts
Only chasms
Line goes deeper
In hearts and
Annals of history
Edges out many
Marginalizing humanity

Out of the labyrinth of time
There is no sense of urgency
Ageless soul and silent traveler
Heart’s that’s young and generous
Not crumpled under the pressures
Encircled with the eternal feeling
Relationships do not wrinkle with time
Time is not the culprit anymore
No blemishes and succor required
It’s a woven fabric of trust
Not weakened by the ravages of time
Canopy of tranquility gives refuge
To the unleashed hearts
Dared to defy the boundaries of life
Ever fulfilling demeanor of soul
Look at life from a new perspective
