Friends on the go
I make as life goes on.
Uncertain it may seem
rocky path I walk
painting a road
set too high
few friends along the way
take a different road
after a while,
I find no one around
I keep painting my way home
and
finally, on the go
I meet new people
not substituting the old
but just guiding as a light

beneath the dark soul.**

people leave and we find new ones..
a life full of surprises
One after the other
I keep finding a substitute.
A substitute for love,
One by one they leave
To create a new mess
out of the old,
making me
colder to fold!

One by one
they venture into me,
a life to fulfill my dreams
A new dream I see,

To love each of them
Whether they stay or leave!**

One after the other love venture into me,
a new dream to live
with open or closed eyes
depending on me!
The possibility of the unknown
Is like a fruit yet to be tasted
either sweet or sour
unknown it will be
Until & unless dared to be tasted
for knowing its richness
for a better insight
of the soul!

Possible possibility of new things has to be ventured out
and to be tasted for a new flavor in life.
What is life all about?

Working like a machine.
Holidaying sometimes
and meeting people
we know closely.

But every now and then
With change of the time
Shifting and shuffling
Keeps happening
In and around
To figure out again
what’s mine and yours!
But most unpredictable it is,
to figure out what life is!

Life is all about changes in
different dimensions of life
A cycle of change*
knocks my door
unpredictably
leaving no choice behind
but to keep pedaling!

Pain and growth
it might bring
making us either
low or high!

Moving on is the
only way out,
to experience a
new cycle each
and every time!
making way for
opportunities*
to let us shine.
A cycle of change occurring
day in
and day out..
trying to cope up somehow
Sea shore
Sea shore
Let me draw
Whatever is in my soul
I draw one line, two lines
but the sea waves
washes away everything
Whatever was to be restored!
No time to cry
Just to play
the game of impermanence
Which gushes down everyday
With a smile on my face
I draw again & again
Learning to dance
with the change.

An experience of the shore
not letting me restore my drawing
but eventually I learn how to play
both with my drawing but the sea waves.
The big sea waves
Seems like
They will wash me away
With all the other things
Left in pieces.
And the moment
It’s too close to even predict
I put my feet into the sand
deeper than earlier.
The waves come
and goes by,
Without moving me a bit or so
Playing with me
All over again and again
As a never-ending game.

A learning at the end
A problem However frightening
or unpredictable it may seem
too close to even think
But we must make
our roots strong
to survive
the sudden
outward disturbances
Or pain without
washing away ourselves
In-between the play of the game.

Sea waves teaching the game of living life.
Go Dream
A long journey
Which made me wear out
From left, right, top n bottom.
I opened my eyes
And read- Welcome to the dream destination.
And all at once my weariness went away
leaving behind their vacation mail.


I know its a dream, a dream
Which I never want to wake up from,
With smiling faces here n there
unknown treasury all across.
from where I never would have
want to return on my own!

Saw a beach from far off
for the very first time
would touch the soul of the sea
chills, thrills all over my body
not knowing how to go about!

Went to meet God
in the church
and prayed
for the wonderful gift
to vacate my negativity
as a whole.

Then had fish
tenderly cooked
with coconut oil
good for health
tasting yummy
yum! yum!
which was like
music to my
mouth-watering
tongue.

Went for a long drive
to rest my soul.
Here and there
to wander all around.
In the midst of all,
fell in love.
A love with life
and You at once.

Then, went to feel the sea again.
A heart and its core
feeling on the sea-shore.
Waiting to be waved by the sea.
To play and roll
finding all the treasury
into my soul!

Cherishing every moment
while climbing a fort
until the sun has set
and night had its song.
A song of love
putting me into deep sleep,
caressing me
to dream a new dream,
which I never ever had,
To live once again
and to wake up again
and again.

A chirping song of the birds
Woke me up
Love, love me more.
Running back to the sea
and its shore
draw more
to learn the waves
showing us the importance
of impermanence
redefining every line
as an art of life
start anew
while the sea
prepares to erase.

Returned climbing to another fort
shifting our focus somehow
to a two birds
busy with their
chirping talks,
We are understanding nothing
Except the bond they had
Were strong.

Climbed down
collecting all my memories
packed everything
but
left behind us, our love
which might not accompany
Until the next destination.

Do you love me?
I never asked though
but only wished -
take me inside your soul.
We might return
from the destination.
But never from the strings
of our heart
which played the music
of our hearts all along.

Unpredictable dream,*
A dream of love,
life and living,
all at once
and  to dream a new dream
every now and then,

to just resume our living
as a whole.
A dream of love of places, people on the go as it may either be mine or never show up! Dilemma it leaves behind. Knowing not but just to enjoy the life given by God!
For Eliot**

a man possessed awakes and blessing pronounces that the world needs another poetry site even though nothing new under the sun nonetheless the secret passion is coded and the white swells grow into a hurricane whitecap crescendo, lighting thunders cymbals and the non believers (how I want to believe!) quietly step forward
from unpronounceable places you never heard of,
no longer cowards, not a one,
invoking a blessing of:

"me too, I am a poet with something to announce new, and I've been sitting patiently in distress, looking for a place to say, see,
I think I can,
I think therefore,
I am,
a named human.
no longer an asterisk."
