Heal and transform my life
Let our love catch fire~
Since it knows no ends,
Holds no place for dispute~
Just a bright, sparkling start.
Your love dispels all strife,
So your love I admire.
On it, my soul depends;
In hearts it takes root,
Its goodness sets it apart.
Time to profit is rife,
Your love and care inspire~
All known bounds they transcend,
And all weathers they suit—
No longer can they depart.
“Sunsets are nature's way of soothing your soul and gladdening your heart.” author unknown.
How can anyone not admire a scintillating theme
Of the golden, graceful sun now descending,
Behind the darkening horizon, a delightful dream.
It is an amazing allure to watch the panoramic set,
The wonder as I swim beneath the waves
A sight that illuminates the wonder of sunset.
But night has now fallen, the sun has gone to its rest.
The sea is cool, I trudge to the sandy beach only to hear
The nightingales’ symphonies. Isn't creation blessed?
Placed 1
In the middle of the night
Where dreams take flight
I always think about you, every day and night.
Whenever our eyes meet
My heart always skips a beat.
Clingy, yet oh so sweet
Admiring you from afar
In my eyes, you shine like a rockstar
While you see another like a star.
In every heartbeat, a rhythm untold,
A symphony of fire ignited by her caress.
Guardian, behold the beauty dwelling within her gaze,
The depth of her eyes, a galaxy of secrets.
Her smile, a radiant sun, melting my heart,
A light that lingers long after it fades.
Beware the lips, so tempting, so sweet,
Their touch a promise, their taste a dream.
Fingers intertwining, delicate threads of trust,
A bond unspoken, a love profound.
Embrace her tightly, shield her from storms,
Wrap her in comfort, a haven in my arms.
Cherish her endlessly, a treasure divine,
Love her with every breath, every moment, every beat.
Permit me to say how much I admire
Your voice and music--oh, how they inspire!
Each note from your lips speaks straight to the heart,
Awakening love as from Cupid’s dart.
My world seems to rest when you start to sing,
Entranced to go wherever your songs bring;
Suddenly I find in spite of all strife
A perfect world and a wonderful life.
The shadowy room when your music plays
Fills with colors diffused by the sun’s rays.
Forgetting all my troubles, I rejoice
Listening to your mesmerizing voice.
From fields of gold to the streets of Beijing
My thoughts take flight by each pluck of the string
Of your guitar, and then Time passes by
Like riding a sailboat where Sea meets Sky.
Thank you, Star, for your enchanting presence,
For piece by piece I feel my existence
Radiates at the sound of tones so sweet
From an Angel that makes a day complete.

God chooses YOU to light the way
because your faith in him is so passionate
prayers are answered as they fall from your lips
Knowing this, still you are humble
and not ONCE did you pass judgement
you set the example in the method of your living
You are courageous and honest
never turning once to run
facing each challenge
you personify the ideal human spirit
Hero is too small a word
for such a magnificent person
You are so much more
and it is a blessing to know YOU
What if I got lost to my direction,
When someone entered,
I did not have your attention.
And now I was called to you again,
A sun that shines after the midnight rain.
My dear someone, a green forest, I must say,
I never hated you, my bitter heart I can’t obey.
Found myself guilty for setting you aside,
But my heart was yours from the start, I shall abide.
My sweet Prince whose eyes do smile,
It makes my day even just for a while.
You must see how I admire you from afar,
You must know I love you, just as you are.
I keep doing things I haven’t done before,
Just for you I’d do it twice, thrice, or more.
A hi for a day is my own style, my way,
A hello from you will keep my lovely day.
If you are the sun
Then I am the moon
We may be millions of miles apart
The stars echo our joy, if only for a short time
You are praised for your light
I admire you even if I have to hide in darkness
You are a tapestry
That paints the picture of beauty
We may be on opposite ends of the room
Doomed the circle each other
Like the moon circles the sun
But I will cherish you even if I never tell you how I feel
Sunny and bright are your colors
Using your pretty face to wear
Never a frown always a smile on your
Face of pedals showing
Love for us to enjoy
On a hot summer's day
Water in a vase so you can drink and
Everyone can enjoy your beauty
Radiating a pretty yellow glow a mile wide
It is your heart that I admire,
Bigger than the universe
Brighter than the morning star.
The role you play as a sister,
Fills my life with a craft.
It is your understanding I admire,
Bringing missing pieces to my puzzle.
The many times you come to rescue in a storm.
You have been a guide to my life,
An angel that guards my heart.
And in my garden you're the sweetest berry.
I have abundance in you,
It is the footprints you leave, and I am following.
With every decision you make, Cautiously!
It leaves my heart pumping fine wine.
It is your strrength I admire,
Taking my responsibilities as your own,
Openly giving.
you know exactly how to warm a heart,
...Exactly how to revive a mind.
You are one of a kind,
Even actions speaks louder,
Appreciated you are, to highest decree.
You are the voice of the sun, spitting fire that blazes trails of madness across the sky.
You are the hands of the moon, gently rocking the cradle of insanity; insisting it lie dormant for a time.
You are the Amber glow that passively shines it's light to reveal the path out of the darkness.
You are the face on the wall that only speaks by the alignment of the stars and the movement of the ocean.
You are the deep thoughts in my head that force me to think about the storms passed and storms to come.
You are what my shallow way of thinking loves to tickle and wallow in. Reminding me that the sun will shine again.
You are the reason behind my every breath and the purpose for my every step.
You are my daily bread...
How can you say that you mean nothing to me when you are everything

( Thinking of poets whom I like to commend, so many faces come crowding to my mind. But as I am restricted to choose only three, I would list them as my preferences agree. )
Constance La France- a poet of fire in her heart
One of the best on Soup, mesmerizes me with her art
Though all her dear ones were taken away from life
Through her poems, she births life, despite her strife
Vijay Pandit - a gentleman of no pretense
Is blessed with poetic talents immense
As a newbie, he has been one of the first to encourage me
Through steady support, still gives me much glee
Lasaad- aka Sotto Poet, composer of esoteric verse
Writes in lofty diction on topics diverse
Only a few, to his poetic style, can equate
Possesses a rare command of vocabulary so ornate!

Bonsai is an art of cultivating miniature potted plants
Away from the natural habitat and normal growth
It's modified to create an art
Its stems are twisted and turned
It's roots are surfaced
They can't stretch far
It's leaves are trimmed
They flourish mostly at the top
An old plant usually looks like a young sapling
And maybe a dwarf
An artificial modification
Appreciated and admired by many
But freedom of the plant is then overlooked
Luckily unlike man, plant has no soul
The world welcome you
You're free to travel globally
But we always see only the best
And overlook the worst
We admire others
We forget our love
Travel is only for leisure
Knowledge and experience
And not for a living shelter
There are racism and foreigness everywhere
And so let's appreciate
What we've already possessed
Our beloved motherland and our families
If the water can return, take me away please!
If the water can take in, it will never grieve!
Someone admires you streaming freely!
I wish to swap with you, then I can run capricious!
If the water were I, it would weep for sure!
If I were the water, I would never look back on anymore!

In spite of the character determines destiny.
Life should be as colorful as the rainbow.......
Please remember you are your only painter alwaysssssss........
