With our present world encapsulated
In a shell of abject tragedy, it’s becoming
Painfully difficult to pen pleasurable words
Of the beautiful glow of the graces of nature
As that of humankind blooms dark graveness:-
Today, declining humor, splendor, and praising,
Are at their lowest ebb on the shores of time as
Pandora’s Box continues to overflow pandemonium
Leaving us floating in waters of war meandering with
Spewed murdered blood of innocent human life…flowing.
Once again, a devilish power-mongering oppressor
Audaciously justifies mass murdering of women, men,
And their innocent children; mendaciously taking pride
In physical and mental collateral damages excreted by war
In the droppings of cesspool bombings from the butt of hell:-
Yet, despite the present-day earthly living hell
We now find ourselves blistering in, let us not melt
Into apathetic despair and hopelessness; but faithfully
Believe the truth-laden resounding echoing of these words:
“…Whatsoever man soweth, so shall he reap.”
Indeed, let us forever be mindful that in our sojourn here,
“Every event…[challenge]…is a…[revealing lesson]…from God.”
And that each of these events comes with an allegorical message
Which when perceived and understood, we’re again blessed
And become enlightened with divine wisdom and guidance.
May the divine wisdom and guidance reveal unto us,
The foot-printed pathway for us---with no more cheeks
To turn but yet---seek not to become Satan’s little devils;
For the nature and keloid scares of our oppression, reveals
Today, the Devil and his own, indeed “…know what they do.”
Let us come to measure sky,
It's length, breadth
height, weight, width, area
everything, everything to be measured.
Sitting on the back of cloud,
flying to end point of sky,
And thus,
to uplift our stature and head.
If, measuring tape will not support
We will measure with our hand
And go up to moon
Moon, that comes to our lap
With every call of our mom.
We will play there,
revolving round and round,
on the dusty & wavy ground.
Then again, we have to measure
the hidden sound of lullaby
that mother used to sing,
The eternal love that grow within us
with soft tender wing, hidden under hill.
At the evening, we’ll return back
jumping from that high,
Let us come to measure sky,
Let us come to measure sky.
We will suppose to measure
The distance of land of stars
With the support of a rope
Stretching from heart of moon
And fixing with the soul of sun.
We have to measure
The intensity of glow of each star
Where our grand parents
breathing their pleasant life,
and blessing us to stay peace.
And at last,
We have to step ahead
to visualize the Sun
measuring intensity of its ray,
Temperature in June
And temperature in May.
Everything we have to weigh.
We know,
Our mind is enlightened with whose light,
Our heart is so strong with whose heat,
Our soul is like ocean, grown from which point,
He is our father, light of our day,
Let us come to measure sky,
Let us come to measure sky.
=============================
And so it begins on a day in spring
On a plant bearing a Greek* god's name
It's as fit for a god as it is a king
And the spring breezes caress it just the same
In a few days the plant will know
If a king will ascend to the throne
And bows its leaves in sunshine's glow
As the royal presence becomes known
Then Zeus roars and it begins to rain
As a thunder storm passes through
Lustrous sun shows his face again
It won't be long till the king's debut
From a silken thread wrapped in disguise
A regal beauty emerges, a jewel in the sun
When its wings dry then it will rise
And do an aerial dance for fun
Crowned by the gods in wings colored bright
The Monarch takes its majestic flight

*Milkweed is the common name for a group of plants
that belong to the Asclepias genus. This genus of plants
is named after Asclepius, the god of medicine and
healing in ancient Greek mythology.
Passions brave heart singing.
Subdued emotions rekindling.
Love denied yet still terror diminishing.
Reaching out.
Seizing the light.
Allowing the glow to grow.
Feeling the warmth within.
Ice hollows becoming thinner.
Darkness coming into the light.
Shadows vanishing.
Mazes burning.
Walls crumbling.
No more disembodied voices calling.
Fear of not knowing fading.
Seeds of hate reversing.
Sending sweet perfume wavering.
To feel.
To be felt now smiles.
Sensations tingling.
Goose bumps of pleasure blooming.
Blackened waxed wings of depression melting.
Revealing new born silvery wings.
Readying to fly freedoms sky.

“The colorful collage of nature’s marvels makes
a tapestry of vibrant delight”. Quote by Poet
The clumps of climbing cotton clouds float away,
brush the azure of the ashen summer sky.
The returning birds bathe in the blue bay,
in the amber twilight to the auburn nest they fly,
as autumn arrives with chromatic charisma on the sly.
In the lucent sunburst sky the golden horizon
splits the surreal sunbeam in spectrum of radiant rays,
the sparkle of hues from its palette colors the dawn.
Drooped down slender blades of fawn grass sway
in crisp air on the lap of meadow turning green from gray.
The pasture wears the crafted crown of topaz dew,
flickers with pearly flair of dawn’s chalcedony glow.
Lining the sun-splashed cinnabar garden path paved anew,
dry trunks of the sepia trees stand on the sienna soil fallow,
the crimson leaves rustle with autumn’s footfall slow.
The scarlet sunset sets fire in the fading satin sky,
makes a mesmeric collage of vermillion ember bright.
Soaking its cherry radiance I wait with spirit rising high
to greet the sapphire stars sprouting in pellucid autumn night,
draped by cerulean moondust I’m suffused with colorful delight.
Body and Mind give way to the Heart and Soul.
They let the emotions take over yet remain in control.
Passion and sentiment now replace logic and reason.
Interchanging ever so slightly- as if from season to season.
Feelings flow freely, replacing all thought.
Emotions running wild without fear of being fought.
The Mind sits back and takes no part,
letting all decisions be made by the Heart.
And throughout the Body the Soul can now freely flow.
With the Heart now in control the Body can only follow.
As the Soul controls the actions revealing it's glow.
Every decision now based on "I feel" not "I think" or "I know"
Emotions unchecked by the Mind, the Heart's desires continue to grow,
and with the help of the Soul will continue to do so.
The Heart and Soul move slowly but soon control All.
This is what takes place when, in Love we fall.
A long day , a day long
A day that never ends
Singing the same song
We get up get dressed
Get out in society
Give it our best
We don't stress because we do alot of things out of love
The sun never sets
It so beautifully beams
And it gives a glow
Have you ever saw a day
That never ended before
No need to restart
The clock never turned
Couldn't give back a day
That we barely even earned
So we start all over
Let it repeat itself
Have a turn to really complete ourselves
As this day never ends
Can we ask for forgiveness of our sins
As this day never ends
Can we be refreshed
As this day never ends
Can we grow?
Maybe yes maybe no
God has that kind of power
To vanish all the hours
But he doesn't
He shows the beauty
As the sun sets
No he's not done yet
As the day never ends
Have we exhausted or lost it the possibilities
Or can we bring it back
What if the day never ends?
Would you still remain on track ?
Or would you revert back ?
Imagine 24 hours a day
Nothing changes or has changed
The day itself has remained
The same
And suddenly
We see
How the world would be
Without day and night
It's a sight
We all would want to see
A never ending day
For a never ending me!

A flood of unfamiliar faces,
Shoes with Velcro, not with laces,
Missing memories, times and places,
Hosting in the hospital here,
Staring at strangers? someone dear?
Is it not what it may seem?
Is it real, or do I dally with a dream?
Through haze, ghostly evocations glow.
Fair face, fresh flowers, dancing slow -
Just my imagination? I don't know.
I must've fallen in a trance -
Can't be me - I don't dance.
This beauty in my conscious stream,
Is she (was she?) real, or just a dream?
Whispering, walking in the wood,
Wishing, wondering, if she would -
Understanding, Understood.
Did, together, we once stand?
Did I ever hold her hand?
A wonderful wife, a titan team -
Is she real or do I dally with a dream?
The Earth could only watch what happened to the humans their final day
How…whether or not they believed in a God…they all looked to the sky to pray
How humans in every language…from every corner of the world…
all beseeched the sky…all asking the same question…why…they wondered…why.
After hearing the humans’ question…the sky began to glow…
The God’s answer…carried on the thunder…
“How sad…you do not know.”
“We created you to love the Earth.” they cried.
"To love the animals and one another.
To treat everything and everybody…like a sister and a brother.”
“You ask why we are ending humankind…
why your time on this planet is short…
it’s because we’ve watched you pollute the land, the seas, the sky.” They said.
“It’s because you shoot animals..for sport”.
“It’s because we’ve provided you with enough food for your entire planet to eat…
yet some of you get fat while others are starving in your streets.”
“It’s because we’ve watched you wage war on one another…
we’ve watched how to other fellow human beings and creatures….you are demeaning…
It’s because you kill one another so easily…as if life, to you, has no meaning.”
“You ask how could we condemn you to such a tragic…horrific fate
You condemned yourselves!” their voices boomed, “when you turned our love to hate.”
And with that the sky above began to dim…it was no longer glowing bright…
silence descended on the land… as day turned into night.
And when the light returned…
upon the Earth peace and harmony reigned…
for every human was gone
and only the mountains,
the oceans,
the rivers
the sky
the plants
and the animals remained.
Alright, Pharaohs and Queens, gather 'round, let's set this basement ablaze! Yo, check the mic, one two, it's time to elevate these days. Incense burnin', roses spread, yeah, that's the vibe we chase, Got that desert heat flowin' even in this hazy maze, Underground oasis, where the rhythm plays, We buildin' pyramids of pleasure in these modern days.
Sun sinkin' low, but the heat's still pumpin' high, Summer solstice magic, reflected in my eye, Family and my crew, yeah, they right here by my side, Got a sigil star shinin', banishin' the lie, Feel that bass drum thumpin', reachin' for the sky, Tonight we kings and queens, no need to even try.
Purple haze rain, yeah, metaphoric flow, These good vibes washin' over, watch the energy grow, Open up your mind, let your inhibitions go, Basement heaven's gate, where the real ones know, Lindt kisses meltin', sweetness overflow, This ain't just a party, this a spectacle to show.
Warm embrace offered, ain't no need to be shy, Got that earthquake love shakin', from your head to thigh, Body talkin' volumes, louder than a battle cry, "When Love Calls", baby, you know you gotta reply, Don't play hard to get, let your true feelings fly, This ain't no ancient riddle, just look me in the eye.
Got the smooth delivery, like the Nile river flow, Confidence is pumpin', watch my charisma glow, Egyptian queen steppin' in, takin' center stage, yo, Breaking hearts and rules, that's the afterglow, From the sphinx to these speakers, the legend gonna grow, So step into my kingdom, let the good times bestow.
Yeah, this our piece of heaven, right here on Earth, No need for no afterlife, appreciate your worth, Shake that body, baby, show me what you're rehearsed, Love is in the air, let the feeling burst, Forget your daily grind, quench your soul's thirst, Incense + Rose aroma, ain't nothin' worse... than missin' this verse!
