Premium Member Better Get Right Today This Is One of My Fondest Prayers

"  It's humid outside
It has just rained 
Sitting in my car 
In the cemetery
 Between my job
 I've just written 
a poem about my brother...
And his family 
Funny it's also 
My father's birthday 
Yet he too is deceased and gone 
WOW I am I'm full of Glee. (Why you see---)
Although most all my loved ones are dead and gone 
It's the Jesus around me and in me that keeps me going on I'll be strong!
I still have my three children and two grandchildren
 My wife is gone her parents too
 Even one of her sister also passed and my in-laws too
 I celebrate their life by saying this today 
Better get right before death comes my (our)way
We all need to kneel down and pray 
Oh I miss the physical ones but yet they're living on
 Eternally !
I pray that they're in the arms of Jesus
This I must believe and when my time come 
When I'm laid in a box
 I hope people remember me 
I hope they think of me a lot
Mercy Lord !
Hallelujah!!!
This is one of my fondest prayer "

FORGE AHEAD

 FORGE AHEAD

Forge ahead, spines are steel
anger, tragedy, treachery heal
betrayal merely a step on ladders
Golden Age arises, Kali Age passes 
fragrant oysters in Bloomsbury Blue
manifesting pearls for specific rings
bring garlands, soulfully sing

Dark was the night
facing polished daggers, fists tight
Herculean shoulders held mirrors 
seeing shadows in hot quivers
they were mere simulation games 
for false egoic fame

Enmeshed on a timeline where
we toiled taciturn to pay rent
glow and glee unnecessarily spent
numberless illusions, broken vows
struggling sorrowfully, success in the now 
Love with faith lying in a mess
a necessary playing of 
hide-seek schemes to loosen
toady tones, melt frozen marrow 
in calcium-poor bones 

Our curriculum included knowing
strategy and tactics 
docile services so hectic
courage relentless coppered with marble 
awaiting cosmic chisel to challenge 
maidens through their drizzles

Slowly we learnt to sow
for an abundant harvest of
Ceres pipless sweet grapes
scrape skin alone, releasing gritty stones 
journey solitary beaches 
clearing human leeches
studying symbols from light 
languages nimble
holy mantras our companion horns 
realisation dawned a fresh spring morn

Life lesson upon lesson 
ages come and go, as sessions
mates all part of an orchestra for
mind to microscopically mime 
Soul to rise, summit a visceral 
vista of primal presence wise 
hopes equal whims on froth of light
seeds everywhere in skimming sight  
gather them simply, plant anew 
Focus fresh, a tiny platinum key cue

We are our own bromeliads 
pyramids, dungeons or charnel ground
diamond within is Purity’s eternal mound
indestructibility not mortality is 
Soul’s character sound

as Mantis magnifies new beginnings 
know they were already sculpted to scoop
sapphires of own silvery choosing 
Forge ahead, no noosing !

Premium Member The Song of Melting

Beneath a sun, both bright and bold,
A scoop of sunshine spun from gold.
Creamy vanilla, a child's delight,
Melting slow, in the midday's light.

Sticky fingers, a sugary chase,
Laughter rings in this sun-drenched space.
Sweetness drips, a joyous song,
A fleeting pleasure, where none lasts long.

But wait, a flicker, a different glow,
A candle's flame, dancing soft and slow.
Waxy pearls, in rivulets descend,
As fragrant whispers, the heavens ascend.

No childish glee, but a tranquil hush,
A solitary flame, a gentle gush.
Warmth and light, a comforting sight,
Burning steady, throughout the night.

One melts in laughter, brilliant and brief,
A burst of joy then fades from sight.
The other burns, a steady guide,
Through darkness deep, where shadows hide.

Yet both surrender, to the same decree,
A fleeting form, what they used to be.
One a burst of sugar, one a pure fragrance,
Both a reminder, that beauty won't endure.

But in their melting, a lesson we find,
Embrace the moment, for peace of mind.
Savour the sweetness, the light's gentle sway,
For even endings, pave the way.

For life itself, is a flame that burns,
Bright and strong, then softly returns.
Live with passion, like the ice cream's embrace,
And find solace, in the candle's gentle grace.

Premium Member Ring Around the Rosies

Eyes alight with joyous delight,
She takes a hold of my hands.
Her grin extends from ear to ear,
As she quietly commands.

To and fro, she starts to sway,
So I start us going around,
Singing "Ring around the rosies",
"Ashes, ashes we all fall down."

She giggles and claps with childish glee,
As she pops up from the floor.
Taking my hands we go 'round again,
Her joy causing my heart to soar.

I'll treasure these days of innocent play,
The memories I'll tuck in my heart;
'Cause all too soon my beloved baby girl,
Will grow up and from childhood depart.

Premium Member Lights -- Camera -- Action

Let grief be brief, let cheer live here;
Let joy fill ploy, let mood be good;
Feel and believe, feel love sincere;
Feel and enjoy, feel sacred woods.


A path you see, a road you take;
A way you route, a bend you turn;
Glimpse fond beauty, glimpse make or break;
Glimpse glee that shouts, glimpse truth that churns.


Dream bits that fit, dream poise that trends;
Dream a big dream, dream actual tense;
Now shape your wit, now shift thoughts grand;
Now sculpt your theme, now work sure sense.


All in due time, all in due place;
All comes to be, all plots bring ends;
Do frame your chimes, do prime your space;
Do charm and see, do chart your plans.

Premium Member The Pirate's Life For Me

With a hearty laugh, and scallywag's glee
I've acquired their riches, and conquered the sea!
Like a timid lass... they will turn, and flee
showing their backsides, to the likes of me!
Lily livered, they're fearin' my brand!
Shiverin' they be,  till they're walking on land!

Arrgg!! shouts first mate, calling out to the crew, 
"Tally-ho!" fills me ears, as the chance now ensues 
Setting sail in a race, up high on the waves
I spy with my glass,  wily cowards to chase
'Tis we, mighty foes, that will ransom the sea!
Mighty bold is me, with me old pirate's creed!

Alas! there he is, what a fool is he!!
To rush into battle with the likes of me!!
Sailin' the waves on the blimey sea
Stung by a sword, the scallywag flees!

How swift he sails, along in the blue..
Yo ho ho! Thar' he be!
He'll be countin' his days, and soon on his knees
A sorry tale, will allot him, his sword just a broom
Me' cross=bone skull is flying wild
and waves a mighty doom!!


I am Blackbeard the Pirate....remember my name!
You will fill up your froth of my flowing fame
You will guzzle ye' grog, or a bit of ye' rum
Yea' ... call me the devil, with a bit of a scum!

Girdled with face of a hundred scars
Fear of me' wrath, either by sun or by stars
It gladdens the heart of a scoundrel like me
You'll best not forget ....tis' a Blackbeard ye' fear!!

Dice from Outer Space

Dice in Outer Space 

A dice occupied a part of space o'er three weeks ago,
I saw it reside without rockiness, roll or drift to weigh,
Only debris floating in the hollowed terrific atmosphere,
Could steal that cubic regality of it’s dignity in cruel slay.

But it did not! Or when present, it did not in blissful glee,
For in that sharp moment a splendid skiff fell from above -
I saw the dice in all its semiotics of multifaceted identity,
Embellish yet echo the presumed emptiness of the glove.

Beside me greeted stars, moon, whetted Mars, quasars,
But the giant in sweet surprise moved and claimed a grin;
Its semantics hit in semiotic spread binomially distributed,
All in me found a meaning amid that societal shriek din.

Random but creating the rational: humans, animals, plants,
One roll of the silent, saline dice rained waterfalls in power;
A slight of hand tilted destiny’s child peeking and glimpsing,  
For the swift air to cuddle its sheerly innocent bent tower.

Somatic development bloomed a phenotype in rich display,
Social evolution scooped that prize secured before a trace,
Vocalising tribal calls cut the beholder’s hope to denounce,
Their drive for the female dressed in ovum for sperm case. 

But this family - me, you, cherish still moments of freedom,
When ecstasy rolls the waterfalls of two bodies harmonising,
Into one synchronous whole pounding with the life-pulse bold,
Transforming individuality to join with the mesh globalising.

The die, cradling the social with quickening consistent tie,
Files economic highs for tomorrow’s feed, pleading to know, 
The happiness of the CEO reigning down joyous bonuses, 
Enabling restaurants to serve sumptuous cuisine aglow. 
 
And to medicine wherein the random nests, hiding its kin,
Academia and pharmaceuticals search spare but by step:
Postured algorithms fibre the genetic code, the cell division,
Discovering blazing makeup to aperture the random footstep.

Unchain Me

Unchain me.
Unchain me..
Unchain me...

Unchain me…
Often, you wouldn’t
Unchain me…
Times, you couldn’t

Nothing new
You know it’s true
Under the love flu
The swell spell of you
Do I sway with yesterday?
Do I sorrow for tomorrow?
Can’t be doused in dismay – 
Much happiness to borrow

Unchain me…
From your gravity…
Unchain me…
I will feel so happy…
We shall taste victory…
Don’t you dare pretend 
You don’t have a clue
Scars are meant to mend
To make us morning dew
Unchain me and you…

There is a heavy load I carry
On this road of no-abode, baby
Unchain me…yeah, unchain me…
It’s the only way I will be free

Wise in my youth
Pushed to the margins
Deep inside His truth,
There are no sign of sins

Enraged because…
You got the applause…
I got this awesome faith and hope
So, no need to feel sorry and mope 
You ought to understand
Where I will always stand

Star-dazing throughout my days
Unchain me in many, many ways
Unchain me…yeah, unchain me…
Thrown down in garbage bins, I see…
Be my skyscraper of pure joy
This young man is…still a boy 
100,000 words you say in my ears
Been over there and here for years…

Led astray by your use of…
Cigarettes and regrets, love
I will find my place on Earth 
Unchain me with Your mirth
Fulfill all with bottomless peace
Hoping hard for chaos to cease
Home sick in this house of utter confusion
Roam away from me, positivity intrusion 

Unchain me…me…
Just unchain me…baby...
And you will see – possibly – 
You and I, completely, happy 
Unchain me…and we…
Ah, oh yes, unchain me…
You will have genuine glee sincerely…
Forget feeling oh so trapped…be free…
If, ah, if only…
It included we...

Unchain me...
Unchain me..
Unchain me.

A Glimpse of Navratri Festival

Wearing colorful chaniya choli, 
dancing dandiya, garbha gaily
forgetting all cares and worry
Joyous bliss abounds in Navaratri

Celebrating nine attributes of femininity
knowledge, tranquility, benevolence, dynamism
Vigour, beauty, bravery, creativity, optimism
Navaratri eulogizes primordial cause of creation

Durga Puja, Golu, Saraswati Puja, Ramlila, Dussehra...
It is differently celebrated in each state of India
through temporary pandals erected at public places
Whole country revels in exuberant exhilaration

Females young and old are worshiped
Called home given food and gifts
Hymns in praise of Goddess resounding
Navaratri brings nine days of ebullient festivity

Worshiping, feeding Goddess daily
Chatting with relatives, friends
busy enjoying, collecting memories
Every year Navaratri bestows much glee.

Note : Nine Goddess in picture are worshiped each day,  each represent one aspect of feminity. Source Wikipedia.

A glimpse of a lavish dawn graced with hail,
Thorn sparkles and dewdrops on the rose wane.
Honey bees and robin-raptured boughs wail,
Calling me young and pale with a spring strain.

But I grasp the pride in the required time,
With glee, his father leaped for the flower.
As my zeal fades, I come back and sublime,
Will loom to be weathered and will glower.

Let me startle with pride in your garden,
Since I just have a short time left to live.
Let hope fool me if I'm weak from pardon,
It could lead you to smile at a blithe thrive.
