THE HARD DAYS
Way to vision is full of gloominess,
Many obstacles are hide in it like evilness,
Tremendous lightning of will power can supersede it,
Just command yourself to do it,
Sometimes circumstances are not auspicious,
Shattered hopes tell to kill the dreams and itself,
Life feels like gehenna,
Seems like as if burning on the grave of hopes,
Gather the shattered hopes and move towards morality,
Be patient and wait for the opportunity,
Oh! Look opportunities are falling into my hands,
Like god is showering blessings on me
flowers in bloom have taken the place of withered flowers,
Hard days will be remembered till the last hour,
- ASHNEH SINGH
What are differences
and similarities
between suspicion
and superstition?
One seems rooted in natural
and sinister
causes.
The other in spiritual
and ambiguous
pauses
and becauses.
Although suspicion
could be about grace,
causes of anonymous compassion,
yet of a physical
and natural
curious source--
Probably not metaphysically
spiritually
resourced.
Whether suspicions
and superstitions
are of negative
or positive
or ambiguously unsettled intent,
may have more to do with what we can hold
and invite
with an open hand
and mind
Than what we feel we must grasp
and autonomously own;
extract from living Earth
for mere ego-serving purposes.
What differences
and similarities
co-arise
between anxiety
and anticipation?
What are differences
and similarities
between being a spoke
and becoming an integral part
of a revolutionary wheel
revisioning 20/20 climate climax
An ambiguous
tipping pointed
and yet well-rounded
grounded health legend
for global regenerations
of wealthy superstitions.
The droop of purple foxgloves lift.
The uptick of balm a gift.
The shape of eyes suddenly shifts
On the brooding workplace clock.

Cold chilly cheer where wit pokes fun,
Dance dreamy dear with warm word pun.
Autumn comes round as cold draft chills,
Dry leaves greet ground with rustling feel.
Watch how change splits a formal turn,
Feel heat range fit swirls in cold churn.
All around here sense wonder spear,
Curious tense peers odd shadows here.
If only I can find delight
In forlorn span of autumn nights!

This year Chanukah and Christmas
start at the same time
The night of December 24th
Marks the beginning of the festivals
This must mean something!
Both holidays celebrate
the power of light
which is essential
to human life
Way back in time
our ancestors
learned to create fire
and could then
stay up at night
reciting tales and dancing
This was a true miracle
and a true miracle
and an important beginning
for man;s future
The stars must be auspicious
this year
When the two great festivals coincide
The people must give up hate
and take joy
in the miracle of light
Ask love to show just how to live,
Urge joy to stay with peace of mind;
Seek that sure flow and learn to give,
Plant then each day a heart most kind;
Indulge fond feel with wise learning,
Calm is the way that sparkles plain;
Instruct goodwill as wonder springs,
Oblige live clay to awesome gains;
Use your time well for journeys far,
Speak truth you know that love may grow.
Choice flavours tell in myriad stars,
Apt that fond show where writes word glow;
Light your soul flight with deeds put right,
Mind and heart sight grand streams of light.

Propitious is Auspicious
---------------------------
Could it be ?, as the road doth beckon.
Not likely to ever be again, I do reckon
I will not likely again, know that glory.
Never again be able to write that story.
Of a time, when a young man’s heart turns,
his soul, in transition, constantly yearns
as his spirit, on fire, reaches out, it burns
to the ground, nothing left, that concerns
humanity, in its indifference to life,
it’s journey and that road, rife
with so many great adventures gone wild
in the hands of Mother Nature’s child.

See the Chinatown roads:
Prosperous golden goats,
Rich festive decor loads,
In sky arches like boats,
Note how spring animates,
Gather this ample sea.
Feast on the ultimate,
Explore spring charms with me;
Sea of human faces,
Thrill of ceremony;
Ideas of spring graces,
Voice and fireworks set free;
Auspicious customs prompt,
Lunar New Year informs.

This new auspicious day, in any given year,
comes with blushing hue of dawn when that brilliant sphere
which sets a trenchant course so earth won’t go astray
shows us its abounding span of light, for midway
through our planet’s cycle, June’s Solstice time is near. . .
Winter left me feeling hollow, but I now can hear
trills of birds, smell lilac, and see the sky more clear.
And it’s in the warmth of sun that I wish to stay
this new auspicious day!
Blooming like a sunflower, radiating cheer,
I’m in my element when summer months appear.
The sun beneath my skin ignites desire to play.
Who can think of labor when lust for life gains sway?
Time to shine in Zenith sun is time I hold dear. . .
this new auspicious day.
