There once was a cow from Calcutta Who mooed with a st-st-st-stutta: She'd m-m-m-MOO At the passing Hindoo Who'd milk her and churn some b-butta.

Butta
Who is he? His eyes, they hide the secrets of the sea, and as his gaze washes over me, it makes me suffocate, leaves me breathless. Who is he? The one that appears in my dreams with eyes shaped like lotus petals, and body painted by shades of brown. Who is he? The one that leans in closer to my face, my lips, watching tones of red swim upon my cheeks as his hands rest on my waist. As I write poems, twirl my pen on the paper, he reads every line I have written and the soft wind caresses his hair. If this is not intimacy, what is? He kisses the mole next to my eye like we have been lovers from time immemorial. And when I awake from my slumber I would still smell his scent, feel forlorn. Why do I go on to mourn for a love that is not real?

Let us think. If I’m a soul, then what about my things? I’m just a soul, what about my family? The memories I made growing up, making friendships, crafting relationships, struggling every day, just trying to find my way. In reality, I’m just a soul. It’s all just gonna **** blow away like a cloud of smoke that appeared around my head and showed me the life that I could only dream to ever have, teaching me truths about the universe itself that would outlast my own shell. But after death, it all means nothing. It’s all a bottle without a bottom. You live and you learn, you die and it’s all forgotten. Yes, you live behind something that you never get to see yourself. Who knows whether I’ve got a place reserved in heaven or hell? Because I’m Hindu, and if God is Christian, then I’m ****** I’ve done a sin so grave even Satan would look at me and scoff. “Competition, eh?” he would say, and I’d go tell God: Just send me back to earth and let me stay. This cycle of life stuff is just fuel to exhaust.

Heaven or Hell
You can search for God all you like; He cannot be found. He's forgotten who he is– All entirely on purpose. So thorough is his forgetfulness, So deep the slumbering dream, That he will never again wake– Indeed he means not to. And I would prefer nothing else more

Search for God
Beyond time born the King Beyond the cycle of birth and death As though born As though gone Living a beautiful life Bred for beings Out of love Out of compassion A greater sacrifice Beyond comprehension Waiting for the humanity To wake up to the words Ever living in the time Passing moments Reminding of the passage Yes wake up to the words Before the ebbing of time The greatest way to celebrate the King Is to follow His song Happy Janmashtami

Happy Janmashtami
In the quiet thread of Rakhi's grace, Lies a bond no time can erase. A promise wrapped in silk so pure, Of love that forever will endure. Beyond the playful jests and cheers, There’s a truth that whispers through the years. Life teaches, in its gentle way, That bonds of heart can never fray. A sister’s strength, a brother’s shield, In life’s great battle, neither yield. For in this bond, we truly find, The lessons that reshape the mind. When storms of life come raging through, It’s love that guides, it’s love that’s true. And like the Rakhi, strong yet thin, It’s the simple things that let us win. So cherish every thread you weave, In bonds of love, choose to believe. For Raksha Bandhan’s silent art, Is life's lesson: protect the heart.

Hello Stranger, Done with the Roka, It's a pre-engagement ceremony, But right now, I don't know what I am for you. Next will be our engagement, Then I'll be your fiancé, And you'll be my fiancée, But right now, I don’t know what you are for me. After that we'll have our marriage, Then you'll be my Dharmik wife, And I'll be your Sworn husband, But right now, We're strangers for each other. Let's make it easy, Let's share with each other Our likes, and the dislikes too, Let's be friends until we wait, Let's get to know each other. You know about my weaknesses, It's apparent and obvious, But behold, I descend into your life, I have my shortcomings, But I have my gifts too. You'll see me spreading joy in your world, And you'll realise that your world is mine too, But don't worry, Just let my love grow in your heart, Next I'll plant a ring in your finger. That ring will mark you as mine, You'll put a ring around my finger too, And this particular ring will mark me as yours, We'll be each other's fiancée & fiancé, I'll make sure that you are fine. A few weeks after that engagement, We'll sit in front of the Holy Fire, And that fire will be our witness, And so will be the Àgnì Ðévà, The God of Fire will seal our togetherment. Right now you're cautious, Maybe a bit scared too, You are in the dark, But so am I, dear, Don't worry, I won't disappoint you. And I know that me you won't dishearten, We'll gel well beyond the physical realm, The world will soon see us as one unit, We'll enjoy each day in togetherness, And it will no longer be an untitled relationship.

I feel so good when I am loved. Getting loved is not in my control. But I can still love you honestly. You stay busy with your preferences, Exchanging love is my Preference, I love you so much, but I fear you too.

Kashmir is not just beautiful It was also free of violence, Not too far back in history, That did occur just 7 to 8 centuries ago. Then they poured out of Central Asia, Hordes getting bigger with each wave, Eliminate they did the original people. In 1320, it was Zulju raiding Kashmir, Then Rinchana, a Tibetan Büđđhïst refugee, he took over. Rinchana had Shah Mir as his Minister, Shah Mir persuaded Rinchana to Islam. After Rinchana, his son was set to be the ruler, However, Shah Mir killed this lawful successor. In 1339, Shah Mir became the first Muslim ruler of Kashmiri lands, Initially, they did not dare harm the original Hïnđū inhabitants. Then it was just Muslim kings for few centuries and slowly the Hïnđū heaven slipped into Muslim hands. Now we know what is the ground reality, The demography became Islamized over centuries, All arts and crafts stand dwarfed by violence, What they aim is an Islamic State, an Islamic Earth.

The snake.
There is a peculiar lightness I have observed that appears to increase with age On the anniversary eve of my 70th natal year I glance towards the Western horizon stars all lit stellar candles beckon My breath, Pneuma with gilded wings and golden vessel longs to explore the vaster regions of self Constellations dangle Happy Birthday across the Bright Unknown I wait...... A vacant silk sari fluttering, flickering, in the fiery sunset dusk

I'd like to think that they are all One, Even the old stories said so, But the same stories created multiple ones, Where is the truth in all these tales? Hidden between the lines of the translator? Or within the words of the narrator? Or convoluted by the repeated writings of many hands? I guess that a journey inspired by any one of a tale, Shall also be a tale by itself. You may not need to verify the source, May you be the source for others, When we look for inspirations Upstairs, Why not look among ourselves ?

Inspiration of One
The remover of all obstacles, O' Vighnaharta I fold my hands and bow my head, In prayer You've always been my key pilot O' Vinayaka I come to you with all my heart O' Lord of Lords My knowledge comes from thee In abundance, you've shed your blessings Upon me I offer my soul, my lifes all deeds To thy feet Hail O' Datta I welcome you in my life everyday At this Ganesh Utsav I request you to visit me today With your favorite dessert and flavouries I've decorated a plate, Sweet ladoos, modak, paan and durva With this red velvet hibiscus garland and flowers I am standing here waiting at the gate In the temple, inside my soul Where blossoms the energy to carryout my role Dear Father, You never disappoint your devotees In this aeon of cycle, on this earth and beyond You'll always be my protector Coz my soul shares a devotional infinite bond With you, Ganpati Bappa Morya... ©sim

Vanquisher Of Obstacles
With her three eyes and many arms Kali Ma leaned in to tell me the secret of this year. She told me with regret and hate filling my life- I wouldn't be getting anywhere. She said with trust and loyalty- one day I'll find my back again. To a live that's full of love and hope instead of sadness and sin. The Dark Mother- the Goddess of destruction and creation told me she, herself, was the bearer of contradictions. She said we all fall apart and there are ways to get back up if we just open our eyes. Instead of filling our self with doubt and questioning the truth instead of the lies. So within the Ocean of Blood I have been created by Kali Ma- and I will sooner than later be destroyed by her power. But before the year is up she has given me the truth to rise up and fight her. I will change for myself and I become one with the truth's that lie within me. I will remember the good instead of the bad so it doesn't destroy all of me. I will wear red as gypsies must do when their funeral is near. I will let Kali Ma devour me and send me home without fear. I will wear pride knowing I have found the truth and let the lies go. I will be at peace when I have figured out everything I needed to know.

I was her unauthorised teacher, She got bored of my teachings. I just had the best advice for her, She thought so too but initially. Later on, she made mistakes, Suffered losses, heavy losses. She blamed me for half-hearted efforts.

Head on a Belt
On The Sixth Moon's Night I came to contemplate the cosmos. I awoke on a mountainous range: Projected were ten thousand isles, scattered in remain. All dancing differently, But constructing one eternal game. To what extent might my eye expand? To what end will death cast its sand? Upon what shore may the waves crash again In peace and calm harmony? No matter how many curtains the Devas will draw Or how many distinctions Māyā will make~ Always, the un-curved perfection subdues and surrenders to them all. Like the water-way, cultivating life and harvesting it on the other side. Formless, it surpasses all stiff form and creates a path of least resistance To the goal of the heart. --- You cannot carve a stone buddha out of human flesh. A stone buddha cannot experience samadhi nor still a pond. Mind is a mirror that must be seen clearer! But behind the glass and that transient social class, What is that divine perception? "The Ultimate Peerer"
