Waves are asking a question to the sea shore, inquest
How many times do we to come here to go back again

Since our birth, we are in a process to get the final rest
Each and every time we come to you to go back in vain

========================================
My faith in human, religion, and temple is a gem of ocean
Bubbles of elements and salts touch me with a gentle motion

I accept them as a water prayer to touch the earth and sky
And to give back all, the sun, and the moon, low and high

A quality of beauty and intensity of emotion are features of poetry
The music department is housed in a building which is pure poetry

Human languages use its aesthetic qualities of notional and semantic content is poetry
Spontaneous sound symbolism and words come from your sacred heart is pure poetry

God lives with me in my family of ten, with kids and grandkids,
Faith of being and nonbeing is sharpened daily by active bids

Shadow cast few men to know the life after death as rat and cat
As jewels color reflects the glow of pigmented fireflies and bat

Some­ surrender to walk on wild side once before it's too late
Keep seeking rainbows of the pathway leading to Souls gate

Let adventure glint moments of lips met Celestial memories
Of the well used that space in youth of rehearsal and series

Jasmine's heart
was little

قلب یاسمن

Knowledge is light which perishes the darkness of ignorance
Ancient cries of old sky finds latest cheers to get an advance

Actors come on the stage with legend messages deliverance
To make amendments, since only a few get a second chance

when heaven reject me hell embraces me
when my soul refuses to burn in hell
indeed i chose to serve Moloch
when my portions of darkness gives void a light
at least I shall be call light bringer
when I swim in lake of flames I become as a bulb with gadfly qualities
illuminating demon's path
as the devour those who forbade just way

I remember you and your heart as bare as tree in Autumn
I will always write poems for you since I have not forgotten

The time we traveled both as fast as the leaves fell in autumn
You and I will find a road of our love won't die or be forgotten

I understand wrong, hurt and injury but preach to be wise just
Man of conscience of reasons, honors and virtues must trust

Most of the time, ''My insides don't match up with my outsides''
Sometimes I wear a silk to prove the kindness and soft insides

==================================
Your beauty does not turn off, even at night You are like a day
They say exotic things, thousand years are as a passing day

They use stunning similes as fragrance on her sunset wet lips
Eyes as Galaxy, cheeks as Moon, and as Venus hip hop hips

If I were a singer
Gosh it's boiling in my heart
If I were a dancer
*** my feet trembling
I would sing and dance
I would be your private singer
Definitely your private dancer
Rehearsal day and night
Using magical lovely words
Sitting by the river
Searching for the sweetest melody
Cause I love you love you you you
Sweet waves help me
Blessings godly ocean
Please hear me now
My heart willing to sing
Mermaid please help me
Teach me how to dance
Heaven heaven sky
Tonight I will be on stage
O butterfly give me your inspiration
This is thy night
To sing and dance for my love

The color pencils in my hand
My mother's ******* are not like mine
Even her eyes will not be
repeated any more...

مداد رنگی ها دست من بود
سینه های مادرم

...دیگر تکرار نمی شوند

==========================
Natures untold secret falls from sky through the amazing rain
Gold glitters in the crops and impurities pass down the drain

Round breast of the top high trees sing with a tip of bird's wing
I feel closer to God In the beauty of nature as vibrates swing

You absorbed me in yourself as sweet breeze of Jasmine
Sparkle on my face as a thousand stars shine have been

Crisis of daily life has been resolved and sadness is dissolved
Good deeds, love seeds, compassion awakened and anger solved

===================================
You met and now meet me again In thunder, lightning, and rain
You comfort me by bringing water to clear my wounds and stain

Your heart and my heart are very old friend like the Father and a son
I live the life well, you gave me, God! You may judge what I have done?

===============================
Please use words
Do not be as calm as walls of the house
As quiet as a mouse

You look good
When you are as cool as a cucumber
But not as cold as ice
Since you are not a fridge

I want to become a bridge
Between you and me
As clear as crystal
So keep in the club your pistol

Touch me and feel me
I am so soft as China silk
Now, don't be lazy
Be fresh as a daisy

Let us enjoy the sky of life
As innocent lamb in the hands of Lord
A laugh in a sea of a sad wife
Stretching as free bird on the board

Written by
~~~Jawahar Gupta~~~

=================================
You live in me like a firework
In my stomach,
of desires
As Burning flames
From the foot to the height of the body
You are like a water
Sometimes dead frozen like a glacier and
Sometimes effective electric current as in a dam but
Sometimes ferocious like a flood killing me from all the sides

Why not you become Earth for me?
From where I can fly to Sky
With dormant seeds of wishes to bloom like Amarbael
From the thin lips of Touch-me-not
To Big smile of Indian Banyan Tree
And every visitor looking at me says,
The vast beautiful smile as the Grand Canyon

Let me inhale
the scent of your breath
let my hands
seed the curves of the furrow
opening a window for sky and earth
holding me back for nothing

=========================
you may paint the meadows with delight,
but how I will fly my kite?
since I am not renewed
and tinkling through
on friendship day
want to know too
why we meet
if in the end,
we have to evaporate like a dew

I knew
I would find you
one day
tangled in

Kissing plum filled cheeks
Sweetness of youth remembered
Moon shadowing sun

Written by
Ute Sonja Medley

=========================================
I want to touch those lips
Which ****** my breast once
I want to close those tender arms
Which embraced me in my youth
I want to cuddle that soft heart
which burst to laugh in bubbling childhood

I want to see that soft skin
Which came from my womb
I want to see that full matured man
My lovely strong caring son
Who left me in my frail old age
Leaving the true Undying Change

All that noble ****** he enjoyed on my bed
Innocent like dove as he walked in my flesh
Words from those desired lips never hurt me
As I am hurting you in unknown land in vain
Love dies and fruits fail like perpetual breath
And everything goes to grave by kissing the death

Written by
~~~Jawahar Gupta~~~

==========================================================
In the core of my Soul
I live in the placelessness of the place

That is unchangeable,
Unbreakable, unseen and untouched

And I long for your
Endlessly, Eternally, Enduring
Affinity of infinity
Abiding the Tenable,
Durable and deathless
Being the whole part
Of Time and Space

Carefree, everlasting and perpetual youth
In never languishing place less of the place

Like a roamer roaming in the floating shade
Tracing that traceless roots of the rootless

Like migrating bird of passage
Bathing in the melting snowflakes

There my heart and my soul dip in
Streaming symphony of your soul

Awakening in the sleeping night
Forgetting ignorant sleep
Relaxing in your Enlightened lap

Written by
~~~Jawahar Gupta~~~

===============================
When the time demands
must let go at this point
the intense pain
the familiar
the intimacy
to make way
For a new chapter
since your skin and
my skin are different
But we both are under the skin
and skin is changing every moment
for living is quite finite in the infinite space

Written by
~~~Jawahar Gupta~~~

=========================================================
The Teapot is on the Table
Enjoy your cup of tea
And tell me everything
From very start to till now,
A Chance meeting with stranger
Exchanging moments in still time
Making a decision to go once way
Not the other way
Since
It's only when you are far along
To change the direction
Realizing you have now no choice

The flow carried my senses
From the beginning to the end
In a cozy floating web of thoughts
Where words were swimming
To reach the Top
Exhausting
But needing a moment of relaxation to empty me

Tears fell down from the cheeks
Like icicles dropping through my chin
Then a sudden smile spread over the face
a warmth of spring afternoon
Melting the silence of words
on the lips of the Tulips

The floral curtains are purple
They've made black eyes from
their yellow feet
I'll be beautiful...
I walk...
Jasmines grow in every house
I love the smell of the mother's
delicious food in every house
I love to be beautiful
I love my hair to be black
Trees, branches, the green leaves
are golden necklace
under the sun
and I don't know in which house I lost my
childish innocence voice !?

پرده های گل دار بنفش است
از پاهای زردشان
چشم های سیاه  بافته اند
...من زیبا می شوم
...راه می روم
از هر خانه ای گل یاسمن می روید
بوی غذاهای خوشمزه ی مادرها را
از هر خانه دوست دارم
من دوست دارم زیبا باشم
من دوست دارم موهایم سیاه باشد
درخت ها
شاخه ها
برگ های سبز
در خورشید
گردنبند طلایی است
و من نمی دانم
صدای معصومیت کودکانه ام
در کدام خانه گم شد !؟

your head on my chest
my face buried in your hair
breathing in your scent

the witching hour
watching your heart
softly beating

Gaze at heaven sky
Profoundly watching the birds in distress
My restless eyes
Singing a sad song

Gaze at heaven sky
Tears flooding my eyes
Universe selfishness
Against the beauty of the sun

Gaze at heaven sky
Unending tears heartbeat
The luminous beauteous spring
Painfully flooded in river tears

Gaze at heaven sky
Daily melancholy no wind blows
Watching the birds in distress
A bird with a broken wing cannot fly

Calm
Like a forest dam
Like a bread and jam

Her eyes are like green plants in midsummer
Her hair are like the golden petals of a chrysanthemum
Her skin is a lily
Pelt from a flowering plant

She's a gold fish
With fins so trikish

Her smiles
Are like a cruze in a sunset beach
She's calm like the pleasant water fall
That makes the earth stands tall

She's like a warm silk
She's like cotton
She's ever green
Never forgotten

She's hot like the sun
And calm like you have never burn

NATURE GIRL
She's

I didn't buy flowers this morning
I don't have a smile
I see an old man in the green masses
His hair's white under the sun
This means...
I'm feeling bad!!!

امروز صبح
گل نخریدم
لبخند ندارم
در حجم هایی سبز
پیرمردی را می بینم
که موهایش در خورشید سفید است
...یعنی
!!! حال من دارد بد می شود

dried rose petals
after fifty years
scented memories

How fast the day ends
Evening comes and morning blend
I always thought of you as a child
Forgetting that I have become old
I enjoyed playing with you in noon
As you are playing with your son
How fast the day ends

I wanted to give you much thought
Different ideas your teacher brought
Cup of honey, flowers, fruits, sought
How fast the day ends

Used to Kiss your face to make you smile
Touch your soft cheeks to make you smile
Frisk, frolic, flutter front to make you smile
Giggle, gimmick, gallant acts make you smile
How fast the ends
Evening comes and morning blend
