Best Ga Poems

Time speeds away unmindful, 
ages added on to eons, 
piling changes on change, 
it moves on, 
seldom posing lull and loll.

With the current rushing swift and fleet
we race past from old to new
from times primeval to times neoteric
watching the ceaseless chain of births and deaths

“This is love: to fly toward a secret Sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life.
Finally, to take a step without feet.” ~ Rumi  

Life can be a pilgrimage through rainless moors
and solemn seascapes draped
in mists...

In an old bus, patience thinned by 
  midnight
As bitterness drifted long, feeling bleak
Wiping hours with restless air in 
 dark light
Not a robin cooed through skyline's 
  mystique
 
Finding unrest from a breeze in dull 
   shade
Where time slept with...

When the twinkling trust
of tamarind tides, 
cascades in catastrophes
and turmeric-tinted tulips
become a treason for sun temples ~
I slowly drift like a diluted drop,
ruffled in the consciousness of Nyx,
where the nefarious nightglows
unfurl a midnight rose-glazed moon, 
resting in thunders of the third eye
and our spirits are...

Handicapped access and Six Flags is an oximoron

Overheard in the exit line of the mine train ride:
Four year old girl states "That ride made my tummy very angry!!"...

She was singing,
But I couldn't hear words,
And the dust that she kicked up
Lined legs golden like reeds in the dawn. 

She was smiling, 
But I couldn't know why,
And her dress that was tattered
Whirled dazzling as an African morn.  

She was dancing,
But I couldn't sway...

Our National Guard can not ban
Trump's affair with the Ku Klux Klan
But tell Trump supporters
And all his cavorters
What they need is a moving van!...

Ao dil me sare yaro hindi ko basa le.
Kabhi gungunate rhe h ise fir se gunguna le.
Aj bhi jab puchhti h meri dadi ma
Mujhe achha lagta h
Office ki english ki bakbak bhul jata hu
Fir se mujhe lgta h
Hindustan me agya hu
Jiski god me khele h
Uske...

jab tairi yaad ki her shakl badal jaey gi
tairi aawaz bhi jab dil sai na takraey gi
phir darakhtoo mei koee phool khilai ga k nahei
mee mei phir koee dabai paaoo chalai ga k nahei
janai phir dil ye maira dil bhi rahai ga k nahei...

“What the heart can’t speak of, poetry does.”
Quote- Poets own 

I wish I were the who I used to be
Before I began with anxiety
So much has happened to stir fear and dread
That stops me sleeping peacefully abed.

Once I was as joyful as one could be
Till...

The world I used to love seems upside down.
I use my phone, and I get a robot.
Oftentimes I just hang up with a frown.
The tempers of stressed folks can get so hot
good manners seem to have walked right out the door.
Why aren’t people thinking their...

The Trails of Sanity

Why do I care if the disturber carries on
Why is it I cannot just wait it out, bide my time
Be more mindful, try and bond
Embrace what I don’t understand
Welcome the scorching taste in my mouth
I wait, I watch, and watch and wait
what...
