What ails us from knowledge
the flaw of being wised
is having less and less
things to be surprised!

Why bamboo groves creak
occurs ghost light
puppets can speak
stars fall at night!

How sun paints a rainbow
moths can make silk
summer sky is aglow
with whitely flowing milk!

Seems such a loss
death of ignorance
by effect and cause
hardly making sense!
wind scatters the fallen leaves

mother roams helpless
child in her arms

fleas merrily peel the stray
and her two pups

girl offers her flower
for a dime

as the clock strikes three
the devout race for a glimpse

the deity’s stone carved face
beams with divine grace.

Lush green hope
Springs from the ground
Replenished with love
Carpeted landscape
Soft on the feet
Every step cushioned
Exuberance of nature
Caresses you
Soft kiss of the sunrays
Glittering dewdrops
Priceless solitaires
Every facet of nature
Held within them
As I skid along the green
To roll down eternity

Do you not feel the weight of infinity on your bones
That as you search for the answers this burden holds
You are merely moving topsoil
We queer little creatures try to shout when we don't even have a voice
Try to dig yet don't have the sinews nor muscles to make a choice
We try to ascend past ignorance
And in doing so truly show it in believing there is any possible recompense
For this futile attempt to define our existence
We are merely flickers
Indistinguishable in the scope
Of the infinity that swallows us whole
But in the end there is truly only one answer
That no matter how much we ****
No matter how much we sift through the sod
There will always be the reaches of the universe to account for
The infinite presence of God

Ushered to my life stealthily
Through the backyard
Basking there patiently
Finding an appropriate moment
Knocking at my window
With an ardent plea
Once, I let her in
She was there to remain
Forever in my heart
Time flew away
With her presence
But memories won’t fade away
Still, the window is open
In remembrance of her first step
Into my heart, that still beats for her
We created a thousand pictures
That’s more then years
And after every hour we crying in tears
Cause why?
Our hearts wanted so much more love
A balance of beauty
Where two could give a ****
And everyone else’s knows that where in love
In our eyes reflections doesn’t lie this love is well-known to be alive  truly deserving
Honest with caring
Deep emotion
Lifetime sharing
It’s almost like I could feel the ocean
When I’m close to you
It’s like days start over
But the memories roll over into  dreams in my head I just hope they don’t leave
Cause I want all my love in your hands forever you see
My heart wants to fallow your direction of belief
I seek quality  In the sky
But with you I’ve found the greatest of all time for real though
It’s no love lost over here
It seems like
This life just gets better ever year
