Ema Poems


Conspiracy

Ye jantar mantar ki tasverain bhej Kar
Hamain phansanay ka chakar chor do
Jin logon ki ema pay ye kaam kartay ho
Un ki kali neyat ka bhanda phor do
DaAyn siray ko baAyn siray say jor do.
Note. Don't send me blasphemous tantars to trap me.
Ye sazishain ye phansanay kay phanday
Sazshyo chor do ye makroh dhanday.

Shoots of Virtue

Men defend 
their mental status quo 
even through a mortal neglect.

But here, 
a rare deed 
emanates from a girl’s heart. 

She plucks 
the puppy
from the crow beaks that carve death. 

Resisting 
the pessimistic voices around,  
she tends to that stray animal hit by 

an auto rickshaw. 
Her virtue is buttressed 
by her brother and friends. 

Confidence illumines hopes.
The flickering life 
gets steady.

Let these shoots of virtue 
grow
in the parched world.  


Inspired by a news clipping about the four children - Varadha, Vasu, 
Ema and Aryan - who brought a wounded stray puppy back to life.

Brexit Sonnet 14 - One Tragic Production

Brexit Sonnet No.14
‘One Tragic Production’
 

Witness now this Carillion carry on;
Be it victim of its boundless chiming debt,
Or government multi-tasking gene now gone.
One tragic production awaits, our stage quite set.
A flying crown of fifty years brought low,
A treasured cat now eyeing Ireland’s shores.
Our EMA jobs and funds to Holland flow,
And no seat of comfort in Yorkist sofa stores.
So as director primes the nervous cast,
That padding beast ‘Uncertainty’ stalks the wings.
He knows his lines, for prompts he’s never asked,
But others falleth by his hand, like kings.
   So slay this beast upon the Nation’s stage,
   And acteth not from Brexit’s tragic page.

Premium MemberSummoning My Animus

You swam deep into the water,
but I was  too afraid of drowning…
we could have plunged together and allowed
cool bubbles immerse in waves,
gliding on love’s venturesome communion.

But I was reluctant, quite fearful of being
engulfed by sea monsters … until the Neptune 
within me emerged like a warrior, 
inviting my animus- instinct to feel
that breathtaking sense of courage, of grit.

And we would cruise the waves inside,
to float on a steady rafter beyond moonscape
where real commitment could thrive,
as I let my female ***** be your co- lifeguard.

This conscious awakening is now a fearless hunt
where my readiness trails an explorer’s length,
with a dare of passion, rising and ebbing…
this mix graceful yet bold ; my yin –yan undaunted.

 ‘What we women have to overcome in our relation
 to the animus is not pride but lack of self-confidence 
and the resistance of inertia.’ …Ema Jung, wife of Carl Jung

- You Heard and Answered My Cry -

A short time ago, my faith was not so strong
I just lived my life as well as I could
As time passed, it seemed as if I had less strength
And not enough faith to face the storms in my life

In trying to hold on, I realized I needed to cry out
To You, Heavenly Father, for more strength from above
I am so thankful You reached out to me with Your loving arms
And helped me work through my storms

As you held my hand, You guided me
You helped me smile through the darkness and the pain
Though there are many tears, my faith in You is growing stronger every day
As You make known to me Your will

I am weak, but You are strong
And I know with all my heart that You care for me
The storms may be rough, but I know they’re for my own good
That is how I grow

I will face many more storms in my life
But, oh, how I long to feel the joy and peace from above
I want to feel the very presence of my Heavenly Father
As You work in me, I wouldn’t have it any other way

Thank You, Heavenly Father
For being more than I need to face the storms in my life
Thank You for caring so much for me

-it Is Well With My Soul -

Precious Father, You are everything to me
You are the light of my world, my daily help and strength
You are my joy and the comfort in my pain

It is well with my soul because You are mine and I am Yours
Thank You for offering Yourself to me and letting me have the peace
I know that You will never leave me nor forsake me

How thankful I am to know that I can count on Your love,
That I can trust You for all my needs
I refuse to be discouraged for You are my hope

It means the world to me to know
You know my heart and soul better than anyone else
You accept me just as I am with Your perfect love

Always encourage me O God
To do the things in my daily life Your way
Because Your way will give me victory over every challenge that I face

I just want to worship and to praise You with my whole being
For the rest of my life I want to walk close to You
And depend on You, knowing that You will not fail me

Thank You for being in control
For being the One who is greater than any of my problems
Help me to be all that You created me to be
