Best Thenceforth Poems

It twinkles brightly upon a baby’s first born cry
On September 23 to October 22 reigns up in sky
Transforming into a magical pair of scale
Hailing the beauty of Venus to unveil

As its Libran muses tread a path of life thenceforth
Soaring on element air, Friday has a...

within Zieglerville, pennsylvania

genuine snow white hair 
upon her noggin doth adorn,
perhaps she will divulge to me (in private) 
after i croon (to said lass), 

the melody of Jimmy Crack Corn
hmm...or, maybe this mission 
perchance twill be doomed from the start, 
and hence finding me forlorn...

Salt is the seasoning, the spice of life
The reason for giving out
Flavors to heal hurt
Herbs to relieve grief
Suggestions that fill minds
With hope, faith and love

Salt is the zest of giving
The tang that touches
Upon the heart’s feelings
The additive that suggests
We all need God’s healing
With the adoring...

Perhaps from my childhood, it had been my burning desire,
To glance Nirmal Hriday (Pure Heart) - a home I did admire;
At the thought of Kolkotta - Mother's house - my heart did churn,
To be with the destitute and dying my soul did yearn...!

Saint Mother Teresa...

A lighthouse blinked deep in the shadows' gray   
a fog-horn bordered at the distanced lines,
few stars were scattering above the bay
and scintillating mirrored in my eyes;
- my eyes were focusing upon the brines,
two forms outlined inside the nightly coals
and danced our waltz above...

IF EVER I HAD A COUNTRY : LXXVI

IF ever I had a Country with or without any " Wood " in the aching aping Film Industry
And if ever (you know the refrain by now) I were NOMINATED - not hoodwinked into

Strange how I met you
In a world where I have thought
That unspoken love abound.
Simply realized
Just how empty life had been
Till I look right through your eyes.

Thenceforth can’t forego
Shivers, they’re all that you bring
Oh, what a magical thing.
Vivid memory
Your smile was carved like a scar
Lingers to...

Once it was wrinkles that blemished me in your eyes:
Youthfulness alone met your taste in workers.
Now it's my humanness that you scorn
For the power and stamina of robots I lack. 
Yet sneer not at my flesh and bones:
True, they make me weak in work
But from...

What the Stars Told Abraham (How to see like God)

Beloved, we wish you are right in what you write -
We are sworn to the truth of a rather high standard
El-ohim, in Triunity, spoke: "Let there be light!"
El-Shaddai, the Mighty One, gave Father Abram his reward

And...

Something in piercing stillness,

its shrill voice fracturing light

sharing spaces quietude

mid-escape stark absolutes'

ever-present thenceforth...\

haunting dreams

upon long pausing nightfall,

wisps of darkly transcending

reminders constant 'tween breaths

shattering realities' reproach

buried deep within unresolved hearts,

dense air filled of shudders

no earthly sighs uttered,

merely kaleidoscopic tears

cascading obscure eyes

wailing 'pon tepid winds,

untoward thrashing of

ageless...

The stream.

Sunlight Flicks through branch and falls
On shady copse and tree lined halls.
To scatter bright on dreaming stream,
Which flows amongst the woodland scene.
Then on to twist through leafy glade
And out into the light - Parade.


It chatters on through cobbled brook
And Bubbles up from rocky nook.
Over...

I have hid mine heart,
Within a prison cell,
Dark and cold,
Whose key, only you hold.

I have buried mine memories,
Within the chasms of time,
None is bare,
Those secrets, only you and I
share.

From thenceforth do we part,
From light and into darkness
do I tarry,
Into perdition,
E'en to the...

Mysterious eerie visage of full moon comes forth
There is eerie wild sound coming from woods to the north
It will have its grip on soul of the night henceforth
And it will be sound underlying mystery thenceforth

It is the owl making ho-ho resonance as it flew above...

I wonder the words to pen here,
Once I said you those three words
And you assayed a story thereafter.
Few letters were found brushed off
Few were found bedded with dusts
Leaving rest of the pages tore apart
Where the letters within... were lost somewhere.
 
Thenceforth I sought to pen...
