My breath is misty
cool air of Kailash
blows across my Soul
White tundra billows
endless drifts
only your flaming footprints
can be seen
I kiss each one
Will they lead me to You...?
Tiger skinned Lord
with crescent Moon
hearth and home are
a distant planet
my hands are frozen
in prayer position
Your name twirls like
snowflakes pirouetting
through crystal air
I've pitched a tent
under the Himalayan Stars
just one glance
before I dream
Beloved
One shimmering glimpse

Lord Shiva can breathe
life back into us
His breath
Sing His breath
alone on Mount Kailash
snowflakes orbit like
white butterflies
around Him

I am a love crazed butterfly

Lord Shiva can breathe
life back into us
His breath
Sing His breath
alone on Mount Kailash
snowflakes orbit like
white butterflies
around Him

I am a love crazed butterfly

Snow in His hair

shimmer of diamonds
still and serene
He sits in Samadhi
otherworldly...
as if carved from the
crystalline glaciers
of the sacred Himalayas

In Him
worlds stop
and start

a rose falls to the Earth
He awakens
eyes aflame....

I rise up like a bird
like a swan
to meet Him

I'm sitting near a lake

in Crane Roost Park
but the Ganges is
flowing past me

Condos and skyscrapers
Pierce The horizon
but all I see
are snow crested majestic peaks
of the Himalayas

Oak, Cypress and
Palm trees ornament
the parks perimeter
but all I see are
Bilva leaves
and fiery Palasa trees

People walking their dogs,
pushing baby strollers,
runners pounding
the pavement
but all I see is....
Shiva, Shiva, Shiva

When I fall into your arms
at last,
when I merge with You
at last,
when the beginning of me,
and the end of You
are infinite,
at last,
I will know
who I am

Behind my cherry blossom parasol
I wait for you
Beloved

a sunstar shimmering
across the Red bridge to Heaven

the wind sighs pitifully
and purple wisteria weeps

My elusive enigmatic love
Summer turns to Autumn golds
and still my spirit pines

a sunstar shimmering
across the Red bridge to heaven
