Mind
And Soul
In the dark
Navigate well.
Supply goes Off and
The backup don’t turn On
River in mind, sets its course
Earnest heart jumping out like fish
Arranges itself,... and syncs with soul
Mind and soul in the dark navigate well

Heap
Of clouds
Trespassing
Coolly in dreams.
Her beauty is such
Profoundly so graceful
Opened my eyes and she's gone
Tone-deaf became my minds rhythm
Cosmic things do mesmerise at times
Heap of clouds trespassing coolly in dreams.

Silence the mind
Silence the mind...challenging pun
More I try to stop, more they run.
Freely when ebb tides meander
For the thoughts I don't surrender
Rather with them I'll have some fun

I pen them down to make them one
Then the thoughts become so tender.
Bad thoughts are dormant and slender
Silence the mind

One good deed, and the day is done
Negativity remains non.
Under thoughts possible thunder
Showing duff ear is not blunder
Silence the mind

Friends Encourage
Friends encourage us; they make us smile.
With us, they walk an extra mile.
Comforter in times of trouble
Supporters when our tires wobble
They gel so well in their own style.

Though busy, they come for a while.
Their presence makes our minds stable.
With them, it's more fun at the table.
Friends encourage

The bond is never so fragile.
Remains firm; no one can defile
They care without any grumble 
Simple hearts, they remain humble.
Sharing from my memory file
Friends encourage

Word has Power
Word has power, changes never
A gift that remains forever
The word of God is well defined
Each page I turn, more peace I find
Free boon that comes from the Grower

Grower asks nothing in favour
A boon for every believer
I encash to get peace of mind
Word has power

For mind and soul it adds flavour
Supports in every endeavour
An eye opener and so kind
Word enlightens every mankind
Thank you Lord you are a giver
Word has Power

Life
An act so balanced
Unaware its feather light
Soul comes out and blows
Feather tramples to the ground
Heart

Believes in
Beauty it sees.
Lush greenary with
Emerald shine coated so
Buttery with white flowers
Usher of nature guiding through
Season's festooned flowery display
Heart often believes in beauty it sees

Infancies make things clear
Nonetheless travelling together

Just those three
Here it comes saying I'm those three
Which is so dear and not for free
All those pages one keep turning
In words galore they keep searching
They do not find in dictionary

Doesn't emerge from any tree
Feelings they come naturally
Used with diligence and caring
Believe me

Even some fear to utter those
The combination melody
When whispered it'll be thrilling
If experienced time goes fleeting
Sure, hearts will be in dancing spree
I L Y
Sunday night so bright
From the east
Full moon looks
Calm and serene
Westward breeze from behind
Touching and gently passing awakes the kid in me
Reminds me of the saying
"East or west you are the Best"

Memorable Journey
Entered searching for my berth
And settled with a sigh
You asked if I want water
Sipping I removed tie

Whistling loud the train then rolled
Nobody else in there
Only our souls in that coupe
just you and I to share

We were silent for a while
Then we started talking
Chatting that went on and on
theme was interesting

Many a thing were so common
our thoughts started matching
Went on till four in the morn
but time went on ticking

For me you sang those numbers
Even told me to try
Don’t know when that we dozed off
Woke up when sun was high

Dressed up and sat for breakfast
Served each other with care
Wondered how close we became
though coming from somewhere

Then we headed to the door
Opened and we sat there
Morning rays from azure sky
through the trees dancing glare

When fresh breeze from woods crept in
Your hair tickled my ear
Scenic beauty refreshing
You and nature so near

Whole day how we laughed and laughed
Night at eight we will part
Thoughts in heart running so fast
Like a train and a dart

Station had come, you got down
We parted, wishing well
Train then picked up momentum
Hurting was that farewell

Came back to coupe, on your berth
saw the library card
With your photo and address.
Ray of hope splashed this bard
In redeemed thought of passion lives His will

Scramjet engines **** oxygen and go

Miles faster than sound and lighter they fly

Discoveries reward humans

With out The Trees oxygen become scarce
Your promise

of love afloat

like daffodils

on a mirage

Missing (Senryu)
Far away some where

Heart is humming a love tune

Love, is that for me?
Shine
Upholds
Pristine bliss
Pairs us so close
Love begins to croon
Even trees and birds dance
Nature and you when so close
Every thing else become footloose
Sweetness brings lingering peace to soul
Shine upholds pristine bliss, pairs us so close

Reconnected in thought and mind
Assured happiness that is felt
Though faraway yet so close
New feelings emerge when we chat
Again just we two in this muse

Joyful ever and always free
Young at heart and remain to be
Opt for the best and feel happy
Thinking that we will meet again
Heart that opts will it become true
Is this is what I feel about you

Your Christened Name is...
Without a call when you intrude
Interspersed thoughts get rearranged.
For my songs you play interlude
In your presence I'll be  engaged.

At your free will you come and go
What's your address - where do you stay.
If not around - I shall feel low
Questions arise - thoughts go astray.

Calls of many you may not heed
But you trespass every ones heart.
Have many synonyms indeed
You Penetrate like only dart.

Because you are the only one
Your christend name is "HAPPINESS".
One and only - compared to none
Ambush again with your fullness

Amazing nature
Amazing nature keeps calling
Greets and wakes me every morning
Song it sings differs from others
Pleases me with its own druthers
Boosts my spirits with out failing

Keeps changing as per its timing
Gives enough room for my musing
Wonderful things that it triggers
Amazing nature

In seasons, it remains blooming
Though its changing keeps me grooming
Thrilled I shall be when it answers
Adds essence for my new ventures
For ever it keeps me guessing
Amazing nature

Power off and bliss
Power supply goes off
And standby doesn't turn up
You start lingering

Whispering sweet things
More advanced than a Wi-Fi
You stay connected

Blessings in disguise
In this darkness, light so bright
You bring to my soul

Simple beginnings
Forever remain afresh
So gentle and mild

Only those two words
"Hi there" written on a card
Came from you through post

Those days I wasn’t
A bard - that was in the year
Nineteen eighty nine

Delighted I was
Didn’t know how to express my
elated feelings

Now in this darkness
You hold the torch - I cant write
Doth feelings endorse

Moods (loop poem)
Things will be rough if we are disgruntled
disgruntled voice makes others Grumpy
Grumpy feelings are always ungracious
Ungracious mood swings are nasty and huffy.

Smile on the face cheers up all
All the people around us feel good
Good moments shared,gives happiness
Happiness ultimately enhances our mood.

Immortal is Poetry
Centuries old is poetry
feelings are so well expressed
though feelings still have history
New feelings yet get endorsed

Was written in many a form
Every read gives, new delight
Priceless are poems and poets
Who penned them with great insight

Millions of thoughts, put on paper
Trillion more thoughts will sure bloom
Immortal is this galaxy
Fortunate, here I have room

Sipping
Sipping I look through the window
In the midst of exuberance
Serenity looks so mellow
Thoughts that trying to draw parlance
Enlightens my inner shadow

Melody of those memories
synchronizing with my heart beat
Again revealing those stories
Giving my spirit a great treat
With an essence of strawberries

Reminiscing with bard in me
Didn’t realize the time ticking
Happiness sprang and set me free
Till it rained I remained Sipping
Morning Coffee till evening tea
Hey
Here
Some thing
Seems so great
Responses are fast
Hello poetry suites my taste

Crooning
Half covered view of my window
Is translucent flowered curtain
These flowers under the shadow
Those outside yet to bloom and certain
Will bridge the gap in thoughts meadow

Other half is an open view
Tree leaves dancing to nature's tune
Mild breeze engulfs belive me you
Your numbers I begin to croon
Singing tunes I enjoy my view

Watermelon Morning
Waking up to cool sweet tingly morning
My thoughts knock at the memories gate way
With hearts ping command good times come refreshing
Within the cool pink world feelings sway
Heart reminds me to stay cool this summer day.

Melodious song I long to hear
Hearts desire, in its bloom.. must wait and see
Yes, there it arrives from someone dear
Intuitions are right that I should agree.

Digging to know the meaning I replay
Song and tune so soothing that’s all I know
Hearing gives me pleasure what more to say
Joy within remains like a flakey snow.

The smile on my face make others happy
Heart spake not- loves intent is promising
Wish each day remains just the same way
Pinkish like a watermelon morning.
