Where silence meets gentle,
Where kindness meets grace and light,
Light reflects the music of our praise, our souls,
Breaking through the stars, the heavens,
Stirring the beautiful found in the only One
Who can...

while indulging mindlessly in each impulsive whim,
with no apprehension of the future looking grim.

on trodden soil he lay with slumbered eyes.
Lashed to oak, his chestnut mare in dream just out of sight
snaps free as lightning flashes; flares the skies.

A frightful sight for sure!
Lo and behold! What an eerie beast of awe,
And knew I then 'tis most obscure.

"Ark"



books have eyes here 
they sense things 
through the turning of leaves

strange chapters
they listen to small sounds
loud lives lived quietly

they are grounded cells
measured by rings 
in untouchable ancient territories

somewhere else,
Amazonia 
sheds tears

she cries 
for her...

living in a
different world
When I use to see
things, as per my
notions and whims
But one day a
teacher taught me a

Perhaps,  the

What a great thing
he was diffusing
To all those...

Hidden in the scriptures
Are joys beyond measure
Hopes that can’t be bought
Promises that restore hearts
Light of the word and soul
Wonders that bless the thoughts

Concealed there in the scriptures
Are boundless little reminders
That God is always wiser, kinder

but only could arrange to hold it at night.

The aggress surrenders
But death lingers
Impeded by damned souls
Clutching to their final breath

The flailing limbs
Now lethargic
Severed, scattered
Men languished
Not by will, but war

A storm of clouded judgement
Summoned by the tyrannic gods of war
With cryptic intent
But greedily akin
Riddled...

They loved- it was destiny!
They separated- it was tragedy!

How could she say him no?

His magic...

This eternal tranquil love of yours,
Every problem, it successfully cures, 
Your blessings, with devotion, I do heed,
You beyond doubt,...
