Blessed Are the Peacemakers

Blessed are the peacemakers
A great source of joy in life
They are a great blessing
Amidst life’s battles and strife.

We have one such amongst us
Who is quite capable
To diffuse any situation
To bring peace he’s able.

He knows how to calm the rage
When anger is raging high
He brings peace and calm
When the sparks seem to fly.

His mind is all at peace
When others see red
He restores normalcy
When sanity hangs by a thread.

He devotes his life to prayer
We hold him in great admiration
The world he makes a better place
He is truly an inspiration.

Dedicated to Bro. Stanley Cherian, our friendly and esteemed neighbour

Quote: "May, queen of blossoms, and fulfilling flowers, what pretty music shall we charm the hours?" 
                                                                                                                          - Lord Edward Thurlow


The jazzy arched blossoms with vibrant hues
Bouquet boutiques and the scent they diffuse
The terrain seems as an embroidered piece
God's stretched hanky as the Eden of peace

Nonchalant vibes of nature's musicians
Organize a dais for auditions
The carolling tunes make it a dreamland
All become a part of this music band

The redolence and the trills in full swing
Forging May stellar as the heart of spring

                        Star people
                      dance on ripple
                  of public opinion flow.
                  Stars diffuse or glow
                        as public wish.
                   Stars dazzle bluish.

                Royal blue, Royal Stars
                 Gorgeous glamorous
                      on stage on TV
                      or in movie
                 perform, show magic
                   mesmerizing public
                       yet seldom
                     get freedom.
  
                Star persona displays
                loose gossip to portray
                    starry image.
                  They can’t outrage.
               Star people are bound to
               be controlled by public view.

Premium Member Scenes from our Marriage

Our love must never have a sunset,
Become cold as the sun in this sea.
Thus, hold tender vows without regret.

Dearly contemplating word and deed,
Heading along the bridal marquee.
Cadre of witnesses stands agreed.

Borrowed scarf erases mirthful sobs.
My elder's poor brooch fastened loosely.
Blue garter buckles, groom later lobs.

Launching fresh bouquets of baby's breath,
Superstition ignites fantasy.
Unbridled guests wrestle unto death.

Their hearts strive from unsettled desire.
When seeking love's prize, wisely tarry,
Arm steady flames, diffuse reckless fire.

Premium Member Pacific Ocean

"In a nascent world of life, a poetic soul forces in cool sea waves that ebb and flow, 
the infinity of breadth." Quote by poet


Breath and vastness of the briny deep blue,
hidden universe on the ocean floor.
The largest and deepest of Earth's
five oceanic divisions.
It snuggles west of the Americas,
a world of profound mystery.
She tightly wraps her brine around
an extensive ocean basin,
a kaleidoscope of sea life, from plant-eaters
to meat-eaters, both great and small,
and a maternal, indulgent mother.
The ocean's rich mosaic floor
is constantly self-shifting, moving, and shaping.
For some marine ecosystems, a mere
dawdling pace is crucial for survival.
The temperature of the water drops.
Susurrus in the deep, in quietude
upon the feel of the poised wind against the waves.
The sounds and sunlight shower with a soft,
diffuse glow, leaving no trace in the deep.

Premium Member Swim the Ocean Depths

Take me where the ocean rolls bigger than the pain in my
soul.  Let me lay upon shore sand and hold its grit in my hand 
while the ocean claims ground again, so sure of where it 
belongs to begin its own fated end.  Let ships on the horizon 
remind me how small I am and how little I understand.

My pain seems so very grand yet it, and my heart bearing it, 
will be gone long before this sand, so small, so mere in tiny 
bits, but more earthly significant than any of me I have to 
give. I have no distinct pain, all I hurt once ached another 
name that millions could easily claim.  

I do not want to feel love's sentiments anymore.  I do not want 
emphatic care blood in my core.  My worn bruises need the
confusing wave cycle to diffuse.  My heart wishes to comply with 
my soul's voice, housed within, as it does whisper of peace should 
I let go and fling the heavy pains my emotions have overlong 
nourished and sustained.  

God, let me tuck my aches inside a shell, please allow them 
to only there dwell.  I promise, I will sail the shell by my own 
hand to swim the ocean depths.  Allow the sea to free my 
stored pain in deep, endless, salty motions that I may be 
free from more tears of lame devotion.

showing flowery way Homewards     
                                                    
diffuse rainbows riding fast 

           a whispering shoreline    

           blood becomes water    
                                         
           bones skin nails hair lips 

           Spirit sailing soars

            I lived a full life of laughter 

           all praise to God’s Great Love

           weep not for me

           now or evermore !

Music Box

Music Box

What melody is it
 that the turn of the key
 allows the music box to quickly play
 then slowly hesitate and stop?

There sre no words that come to mind
 only some familiar haunting song.

This one spins hypnotically
 with a telescopic lens
 that looked within displays
 a kaleidoscope of diffuse blended colors.

My ears recall the tune
 but my mind cannot recall the name. 

Other music boxes are set in varied places,
 on the dresser, shelved with collectibles
 which remain untouched
 and infrequently played.

Simple gears and rotating mechanisms
 sing out and call out memories of gifts and holidays.

Alas, the song escapes me still
 but is full of feeling, friendship, 
 love, hope and companionship
 locked safely in the music box.

How To Define Womenfolk

Women, how can I make you a fair definition?            
You have nurtured 6 billion live children           
So, you are the mother of the human            

On every piece of land on this planet            
They, with fine wisdom and skillful hands            
Arranged, the order of time and 
The dimensions of tolerance            
Giving the air the direction of love             
Making the clouds Elegance and           
The moonlight flow like a stream            
So, you created miracles           

I remembered how you grew up            
Like flowering trees, jasmine, peaches 
Apricot, or plums...            
In the wind of spring and 
In rays of the beautiful sun, 
You are stretching the branches joyfully     
And releasing the growth happily,            
         
I can also hear your voice too,            
As you are flying in the air, like the thrushes, 
The swallows, or the Orioles...   
Or like the sparrows jumping from branch to branch           
So, you are broadcasting graceful music            

When I'm near you, I can also smell your breath            
The fragrance is somewhat with sweet, 
Like the jasmines, the cloves, or the camellias...            
And when I'm away for a long time from you, 
Many times, my heart will become noisy          
And my thoughts will diffuse            
And hard to maintain a mindset of a scientist

And whenever this moment comes,            
I know it will be more hard to define...
So, I must go outside 
Facing the flowering trees and           
Dazing

Joyous Day At The Train Station


A most absurd thing happened while I made my way
to meet my morning train one sunny, summer day.
While walking on the path I saw the engineer
I see most every day when traveling, but near
him was a box of sorts all covered with a sheet.
He quickly called to me and said, "please come to meet
this stray, a golden-orange tabby cat I caught
along the tracks.  A little irritable and fraught
but genial, and he emits the sweetest mews.
His fur is smooth and excellent; bright eyes diffuse
green glows of iris; he's a beauty with no home."
I bent and peered inside, he looked so all alone,
but kindly met my eyes with such a generous
meow and then moved over close to where I was.
Not minding one iota when I picked him up,
he fit so sweetly in my arms which I did cup
and did appreciate my holding him so near.
He tucked his head beneath my chin, and it was clear
in order to make him my own, there was a kink...
a costly act...skip work today. Then, in a wink,
I called my boss, and 'knock on wood', he said okay.
An unplanned meeting with my new-found pet this day
gave me a special joy, and with a hug sincere,
"an admirable kindness," said the engineer.
