Quote: "On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open, and the world is full of beauty".  By Rumi

               *********

Listen—not with ears, but with aching skin,
where whispers meander extreme within.
The zephyr is not a cursory breeze,
But divination along with the trees.

It jiggled enigmatically from the stone
and carved its ideology into this bone.
It speaks in whispers and traumatized song,
of where we're accurate, and what went wrong.

Jaw-dropping stories in stillness and hum,
of battles bewildered and those to come.
It hurdles through periods, grief, and grace,
leaving outward fingerprints on the face.

It wears no enthrone, yet huddles the kings;
It severs the tresses on buried things.
So listen in not for roaring decree—
But toward the breath underneath the plea.

The wind will not delay, solicit, or steam,
It is bombastic and allows you to stream.
Zephyr adorns twigs and allows grass to gleam.

The Curious Coif

Enigmatically stubborn to style, the coif
Some days it can be easily pulled off
Other days it requires an exorcism
Like Zoolander it can look like ‘Magnum’

Hides my receding hairline like a charm
Sophistication to my head’s yardarm
Its antidote is a very windy day
Requiring heavy doses of hairspray

When it works my lady wants to stroke it
I recoil in fear, making her remit
For a single finger can ruin it
It’s a fickle angel to babysit

POINT ZERO

POINT ZERO 

Birth slipped into fast flowing
rivers of patterned fissures 
her arching brows brazen 
searching sagaciously
microscoping every moment 
tangoing across thorny 
thickets 


Hope gazed at her prayer 
puzzle poised with pensive 
pencils plaintively planting
plantains for pink parakeet 
caressing spines singing 
softly stirring custard 
pudding 


Love thought she was best
berry fruit from which fragrant 
juice poured jetting jewels 
a silver sabre silently stared
further from truth she stood
a sacked saga sagged


Death smiled enigmatically 
held Birth, Hope and Love
in oblong esteem observing  
Time’s oval ovaries to strike
sublime a node through 
which she sodium sucked


Point Zero zipped in sidelong 
zaps dishing each zappy 
zodiac zones showering 
all four with Infinity’s 
zygotes zooming


Point Zero was Hero !

humming, purring, ignition renewal
grips us in time stretched silence
reverberating thus unendingly
magically and enigmatically 

nothing need be done
all is well

God’s grace descends vertically through our fontanel 
we feel it as a disc of healing energy horizontally placed
the hand of God transmutes each cell of organic feeble form
imprint of agape love within mind-body urn can be then traced

navigating the boundaryless void, the path appears as we walk
His magic conjured manifests enigmatically in linear time
drums of heaven resound merging with celestial light
igniting within us bliss beats enlivening chime

Premium Member Immortality

                    Ah, starry  flower  its gentle
                        Breeze is touched me
                         Enigmatically
                       Cherished music of  freedom
                        Ah, immortality a hidden , drop
                        Of the universe
                        A perpetual breath of a rose
                         A thorny  joy of twilight
                         A cryptic verdict of the sun
                         A fervent glitter of spring
                         The mysterious greeting of moonlight
                          Life glares at joyous death silently  
                          Fathomless tranquility
                         A  tremendous scope for death   
                         A craggy destiny of eternity...        /

feel, feel, feel
delight, delight, delight
in rapture of bliss magnetism 
as the benign flame caresses us
beauteously, enigmatically 
lovingly, seductively
that we awake

an immersion ethereal
full body scan performed
magically and enigmatically 
straight down from head to feet
following perfect sacred geometry 
in a single sweep preceded by a knock
a distinct tap on the top of head at crown
akin to an energy disc moving through form
remaining parallel at every instant in linear time
is what we can only call as being touched by grace

ever so slowly, magically
teasingly, enigmatically 
veil of ignorance lifts
revealing the light
shimmering
in space

we feel it
deep in our bones 
and in dead of night
visible to us in clear sight
noumena behind phenomena 
the transcendent here immanent

what is that knowing
which erases all our doubts
surely it requires our becoming
that that we sought out to so seek
akin to blossoming of a flower
enigmatically, magically 
caterpillar a butterfly

awestruck with aliveness
enabled by God’s breath 
breathing form so gently
enigmatically, magically
we look on in wonderment 
our soul mood celebratory

rapture renewal continuum
offers no niche for thought
or stupor borne by patterns
that now no longer serve us
as we frolic about in the void
the very womb of existence

Businessman poet Wallace Stevens
very creative with a poetic pen
A contemporary metaphysical wit
as 'Valley Candle' enigmatically  does sit

We search
the source
by going in
deep within
surrendering
all knowing
plunging fearlessly into the dark inky void
holding our attention in animated stillness 
our mind body shell empty in wonderment 
in cessation
intent pure
unexpectant 
yet receptive
devoid of fear
no resistance
to the impulse 
that in-pours
as magnetism 
bliss ineffable 
that fills form
enigmatically 
as God’s gift
unconditional

Premium MemberStillness Speaks Softly

Upon attunement 
Vibrationally
Of form with presence
We imbibe bliss
Enigmatically

In stillness doing nothing
Devoid of resistance 
In an aspect yearning
We align with the divine 
In childlike innocence 

Manipura to Sahasrara
A funnel of delight
Sushumna throbbing 
A pulse of rapture unending
From which we never alight

Each moment is unique
Vibrant with aliveness
In quietude we assimilate
Grace in continuance 
Divine bliss in fullness 

In stillness

Accustomed to an environ combative & competitive, identity finds it disconcerting to rest in stillness attentive & meditative, wondrously viewing heightening magnetism in the void of emptiness as potentiality, nonchalantly releasing the humming current as manifestations of enigmatically shifting beauty. Spanda, thus renewed with each breath. Within.

Poised and attentive
Humming stillness speaks softly
As silent thunder
