Where parallels collide  
one wallowing
in the wind
one slipping from the sun
suffering in vain
swarms over the eclipse
where love
survives over pain
butterfly and moth
are best
left alone
flying in the rain.
Today I saw a butterfly.
flying in the rain
what an inspiration
a miracle me thinks?
#trancending adversity
#swarms over the eclipse

Poetria
Soorajmukhi, flower of light,
Faithful beloved of the Sun

A fool and a poet, you live in his name
Wilting at night, you blossom by day

With the heart of a lion, you pray and you hope
You bask in his warmth, ignoring the smoke

Soorajmukhi, you are nobody's rose
Let the burning skylight stay unknown

Pearls of blood in eyes of Mary.
Waves of sadness hit me all the time.
What once was, now gone without a proper goodbye.
Pray for health to watch you grow,  bud of life.
While praising by living healthy.
Try to be kind and grateful all the time.
Live life with grace and elegance.
Like a flower in the wind.
Always staying in the wild.

The wildflower liked being in the wild. Flourishing in silent peace.
While dancing in the wind.

While we bury  a loved one we are blessed with the birth of new life.
