Long Longanimity Poems

Together we dueled and alone you wept,
Deep-down I eked out
Which made me to read your mind.
I asked for your hands
And averred you to have it coming,
Oath taken, but you fell behind –
I couldn’t cope
What was...

To my dearest dear…
Writing for you…first time..
Hope you are doing fine,
All these days being with you
You gave me back once again
Those gleeful days of mine.
It really matters to me a lot
All those days spend with...

Holding her by his arm, softly he lauded 
The moment with...

The way of talking is exasperatingly bellicose.
The paradigm of longanimity has been dulled.
Presence, tragically, can't gather a full megadose.
Exceedingly, it is delicate and cracking cold.

I was prone to bouts of gloominess and fatigue.
More sureness would...

This tale is of a long-suffering wife.
In misery she lived her married life,

Things went all wrong after she said, “I do.”

If matrimony were a fire, she supplied
almost all...

When storm brews in the yonder horizon hazy,
wild winds surge dark cloud across the smoky sky,
sailing steady on the old boat with unsinkable hope,
the ancient mariner in me endures the torment of toil.

Town-horses

In my youth, horse transport -a one-man job 
was still available for shorter journeys, a vanishing business; when the last horse-drawn carriage firm gave up, there was a picture in the newspaper of a man...

Beyond the time I bethought thy ambiguity
With you I aspire the longanimity
Beyond the prophecy there crests thy conceivability
With you I cognize the viability.
 
Beyond thy persuasion I bechanced your propinquity

Having waited for long after hard laboring,
Tilling, planting, manuring and irrigating;
Keeping stray animals away from grazing them,
Protecting them from dangers, as though, costly gem; 
Treating the illnesses of better-half who's weak,
Pleasing the moods of kids,...

building castles near the shoreline,
which the sea washes away
before the day is done?

Alas, you build them again and again
unmindful of the raging waves
and the mocking wild winds
blasting away those precious...

Flavored by ardent emotions
Today you brought back my days foregone 
Lost in the woods and darkness buoys up
The moonlit night appears to be adjourned. 
This cosmic time appears to disappear
By the weakening of the dawn
But...

He took me fishing.

Meaning,
    I cast and fouled
    my fishing reel

    forgetting to thumb break,
    creating snarled...

Blink of an eye,
Buddha –
Achieved a state of perfect enlightenment
But this success carried,
Years of persistent determination
To look beyond the failures.

Blink of an eye,
Sprinter –
Upshots a sensational Victory
But this winning carried,
Months of sustained spiritedness
To look beyond...

Splinters

Shards of hard words in my soul
Are piercing in me a big black hole
I'm bleeding out the chemicals

Digging deep through the ground
I've been trying too hard to make a mark
The shore was washed away again
