Rajaram Ramachandran, You Will Be Missed Forever

RAJARAM RAMACHANDRAN, YOU WILL BE MISSED FOREVER

You’ve left a legacy, a treasure to cherish,
The words of wisdom, the priceless pearls,
Each letter embedded with love and care,
For all the fellow beings, the loving souls!

Spreading cheer abound, filling hearts with joy,
The depth of the ocean delving deep in purity, wisdom,
A seeker of truth, a philosopher, a thinker,
The highest realms of the consciousness, pinnacles reached!


The scriptures enlivened, the epics mastered,
The Ramayana, The Mahabharata, The Holy Bible, The Krishna Leela,
Blessings showered from the Divine, the Grace,
Offering the poetry at the Lotus feet of the Lord!

The greatest humans, the purest souls,
Revered, honoured in your words galore,
Gautama Buddha, Harichandra, Adi Sankara, Saint Thyagaraja,
Swami Vivekananda, Mother Teresa, Saint Bernadette Sobirous!

A master of letters with expertise, finesse,
A devotee of Krishna, the mellifluous tunes that you sung,
From the depth of your heart, from the core of your soul,
Shedding off all darkness, dissipating ignorance!

You taught me to live the life to the fullest,
With the brightest smiles sparkling on the way,
The life lessons learnt, the messages spread,
The guidance, the compassion illuminating all!

As a shimmering candle, your aura shines,
A sudden bliss, a gleaming hope,
A modest, humble self-effacing guide,
Enlightening the path, unfurling tranquil peace!

My heart refutes, the mind repels,
The cruel death snatches the mortal being,
Your memories I treasure to reminisce and cherish,
Your words my companion in the journey of life!

Premium Member Remodeling

Get out your sponges, stippling brushes and pens,
It’s time for makeover-Monday-night to begin.
Think Winky Lux, L’Oréal, Urban Decay,
Maybelline, Armani and Fabergé

It’s a black magic realm where brushes are wands,
where a carnival of colors are carefully crayoned.
We have palettes aplenty, in kaleidoscope hues,
to create fashion looks, both bold and subdued.

In the realm of makeup fashion, where trends never end,
we remodel each other - for fun - when we can.
Tonight, our new friend Jammie has come to watch us play,
and he even brought two bottles of chardonnay.

Lisa has a ‘Miss Rose’ case, like she saw in Bernadette Peters’
dressing room, on a backstage tour of Broadway’s Shubert Theatre.
Konjac, Kabuki, Doe foots, Spoolie, Lisa’s got legit tools to use.
“When it comes to makeup,” she says, “always avoid dupes.”

That night I was the chosen face, the excited living canvas.
Lisa’s a practiced artist, her process is brisk and never tedious.
She painted my lips a crimson cherry, alluring and brightly sensuous,
my brows were moonlit art, my cheeks a midnight adumbrated edifice.

Lisa created a special look, where rebellious edge met elegance.
We took some snaps, then I washed it off - but Jammie was impressed!

Webster: Adumbrate: “to partially outline and obscure”

Slang: “dupes” are off-brand knockoffs of famous luxury brands

Premium Member When North Goes South

I want to run away 
from the stares
when our friends 
don’t see you there
Instead I walk confidently
like I don’t care
But inside 
I feel like life’s unfair
Why did I believe you
when you said
we’d always be a pair

I tried
I begged and pleaded
Yet you pulled away
said I wasn’t what you needed
So down a different path
we both retreated
The outcome not my choice 
it couldn’t be debated
All those years together 
feel like they’ve been wasted
I guess for you
somehow love faded

Still a broken heart
can do more than weep
It can rise up
and walk down a different street
It can savour life without you
there are new people to meet
I have places to go
and meals to eat
There are others
who will quicken 
my heart beat
I choose a life that's sweet

No girl 
it’s not easy being through
I can’t ever forget you
If only you had meant it
when you said “I do”
Now my horizon is empty 
I've lost my perfect view
You were the North Star
that I was guided too
All those moments 
felt like they were far to few
Was it all just an illusion 
did I ever really know you
It seems in this case
True North wasn't true
to the south
off you flew.

Bernadette Mullick’s poem

Premium Member A Good Sense Of Humour Blunts The Sharp Blades Of Reality

The funeral was well attended

Nobody came

It was sad in a way

Clashed with the dog passing away

There was a friend with a leg

When I say a leg

I actually mean two

Though he had the flu

The Priest nearly made it

But he passed too

The butcher discussed it with the baker

In the newsagents where the notice was placed

Was it his wife who put it in

Well yes, to begin

Then a black guy called Fred

Placed another, hopefully dead

Followed by Titch

Who looked quite rich

But was really his bit..

Not to detract from Simon

Frowned the butcher, calling him pieman

Though, that was simplistic

The florist cried foul

She had the contract

But just for a while

It was left to the undertaker

Wade

Who had to subcontract

When thieves stole his spade

Joe from the pub

With the maths degree

Discussed the angles

Buried under a tree

Bernadette, at the bookmakers

Had to agree

Rushing off to mass

Father Joe listened with glee

It was a trying day in the village of Dull

The pub was in mourning

There was a definite lull

But one thing was agreed

As they slowly got pissed

Rover the dog

Would surely be missed.

Limerence

Limerence. 

Unfalible, enduring, undefeated,
Persistent, 

Words that would describe,
A love that a man refused to hide,

Patiently waiting,
Wanting, longing...
For her eyes to once again gaze upon him 
Lovingly.

Believing, 
Even though days became months,
Months became years,
Holding onto the memory of a once perfect
Love,
"Limerence"

On wings of heaven send blessing,
Her eyes now again gaze upon him,
A light of forgiveness shining,
The light of love shining again.

How deeply precious it is,
The mere thought ...
His every heartbeat beats to love and adore her,
His every breath a sigh of thanks,
For he gets to spend another day holding her
Heart in his hand,

How his love flows through her veins,
Strengthening her very core,
Healing, empowering powerful  love.

The love of her man.

She hugs the wonderful emotion,
Keeps it close to her heart,
Hears God whisper....

Embrace what is given,
Hold it dear,
Give back and love him,

And love without fear.

The Flight

Washed by spitum from the drooping lips
of the dying angel, i recieve the command baton
to war against the dreadful monsters from outer space.
With a bible from Bernadette Soubirous
i whip like Arthur's excalibur,
cutting squirming tails and bursting goric eyes
until i come face to face
with the Republican Guards of East Hell.
I wrestle Hitler with a doze of morphine,
sing Beelzebub  to sleep with a tune
from ancient biblical Ruth
and recieve extra light
from the Eagle Nebulae
to frighten approaching fiends in to their darksome burrows.
They came to retrieve the secret of
the sacred feminine given to Dan Brown
on easter night by angel Micheal.
Now on once raging battle fields stand,
dead demons and rotten evil spirits and the poster
"Beyond the Knowing of Man."
Then i clutch the scrolls from Nag Hammadi
 and the convenant from Damascus
 on a night flight to Zion's Hill.
 Jesus welcomes me in pomp
that words can never craft.
Two years later CNN makes my flight
the new twenty first century scripture.

Premium Member The Pride That Died

Maelore, King of the Mountain, owning the Mountain’s Wealth
This summer heat has been brutal, affecting the Lions Health
His mistresses, Miss Kitty, Bernadette, the renegade Linda Sioux
The weasels, chipmunks, squirrels and rabbits stay out of Maelore’s view 
Chewing on a Milkweed  does nothing for Maelore the mountain King
The growl of an empty stomach is the only song starvation will sing
Now the Moutain King, Loves his ladies : He only aims to Please
At Farmer Brown’s there’s chicken for delicious “Chicken Fricassee”
Now Maelore told Miss Kitty; under the light of the bright full Moon
“When they wake up, tell Bernadette and Linda Sioux I’ll be back real soon
A Shotgun Blast ominously echoes across the Mountain’s Forest Floor
Miss Kitty, Bernadette, the renegade Linda Sioux, would see Maelore :
                                      N E V E R M O R E

Golden Roses

Golden Roses 


...to one who has faith, no explanation is necessary...to one without faith, no explanation is possible...Thomas Aquinas. 


Roses side by side where the grotto stood
A golden garden not seen by their eyes
Bernadette could see as she gathered wood
Kneeling upon hearing of heaven’s cries

A Lady did appear in rose bush wild
A seraphic voice with no deception
With a white dress and girdle gently smiled
‘I am the Immaculate Conception’

For the town of Lourdes was quick to demean
Sadly scoffed as the poorest peasant girl
She dug a hole and a well would canteen
To make believers of the crippled churl

Bernadette let your song of roses hum
Upon this let processions hither come.

As We Metamorphose

As we metamorphose
away from mumbo-jumbo,
we cleave to poetry, abandon prose.

Science is the only one that knows.
I saw it on “Colombo”.
A laptop’s far more useful than a rose.

Remember Walden Pond, and when it froze?
Or when Aunt Bernadette prepared that gumbo?
You won’t forget the north wind when it blows!

America’s best movie? If it chose,
the Number One would probably be ‘Dumbo’.
And ‘Tik Tak Toe’ would be the Show of Shows.

We all have sadness, live through woes,
but strong folk are not looking for macumba.
Rain falls – that’s all we need suppose.

Just check your seams are straight: adjust your hose,
and get out there and trip a raunchy rumba.
You know the tune real well. It’s one of those.

You think that milk and honey are what flows?
I’d like to see you tell Patrice Lumumba!
It’s been that way for many other Joes.

Art long, life short? The poem has to close.
But maybe, from the shadow of the tumba,
some vestige will remain for you to gloze.
