China Tour Diary Moment #3
SHANGRI-LA, TIBET
--------------------------------


Paradise on earth: Himalayan range;
A phenomenon carved by elements;
Here magic gives birth to ways that seem strange;
A place where lessons of soul mark movement.


Our tour coach winds round the mountain...

Canadian Ocean Gate


O beauteous land of mirth and Glee! 
O land of falls and seas and lakes!
Which shadows row in horrid nights
Which sorrow in Thee circulate
O start of mystic Nile gate
In which Thy goddess contemplates

Providence On Behalf Of Love
 

I that have seen such beauty 
fallen beneath its gleam 
rejected my life’s duty  
to wade thus in its stream  

Saturating me with love  
bathed in moon’s...

As the mediterranean torrents 
thawed away this wildflower of Medusa ~
once roaring in merciless thunders, 
now, I'm found swaying,
midst lemongrass fields ~
conversing with freshwater naiads
for, every weed is a storyteller

Poem written near a Cemetery  2 of 2
On 13th February 2012

But nowhere in that cemetery I could find,
Flowers smiling on any Stone, Tomb or grave,
Whatever big may have been,
The status of those, who were...

The soul is but a vast ocean of vigilance

Streaming with incresent colours towards life

Infinite within its parhelion possibilities

Relentlessly searching, betwixt the everflowing tides

Whereupon all things approach these providential probabilities

Of endlessly prolific visions thus beheld

Within the...

When empty bubbles of stillness brimmed the place
Upon an emerald carpet of meads, she genuflected with gathered grace
Of languished bones and reverence plucked from nunhood hearts.
Mighty potentate dear, the wonted beseeching starts. 

Oh! May the...

Upon the rustic walls,
Laid a shadow, shadow too dry.
In the trees beyond, laid the carnelian of fall;
And I stroll away, into the vestige foliage ply.

In my little cabin,
many boring days had flown by,
but it was...

Within the ambit of the psyche  untamed
Is the wonder cavern with hanging thoughts
And projections prompting peevish plots-
Thick and prickly notions oddly framed
Fall about, on the least spur of moment
Which ruffles the indignant frozen ill-will-

Groundhog Day 
What is it they say?
If he sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter 
Should we let something like this become a hinder
After all, this started as a Pennsylvania Dutch superstition 
Who thought...

O that I could touch the hands that wished me well
And tell from the eyes truths mirrored up
Or beside each one's cottage my presence dwelled
Planting daisies, and not pushing them up

I am what others didn't want to know
I went where others feared to go.
My training in violence was nothing new,
But I did well what they were afraid to do. 

I don't hate those who refused...

The chantings....

Within the fog shrouded moments
Of tomorrows unknown day
You wait for something
Something strange....
To mute your path
With these ghostlike things
While as you walk
Along their daunting dreams
Of twisting smiles
And ludicrous scenes....
Caricatures faces
That they always seem
Calling unto your...

You may rest awhile if the trek be tough, 
Grab a breath when the terrain is rough; 
Let the oars have some respite,
And the rower fresh viands bite.

But the going must anon continue, 
For time...

In The House Of Dengbej
 

Three sisters sit
Each in crimson velvet
And veiled hair.
Relate tales
Of interracial love.
Of Armenian Boys and Kurdish Gals.
This is a town of
Cobbled streets and redbrick houses of the ancient Lore.
Diyarbakir, Sur.

In quest for peace 
I knock from door

with a bowl full of 
bliss-- my pot is

I ask not for alms but 
for arms strong enough 
to hold the banner

Let me teach you a thing or two
Passed down from elders’ past,
You won’t learn this from library books
Nor technology contrast.

About so-called Australia 
About the frontier wars,
About all of my ancestors…
Shot dead upon the shores.

Spare a minute
to know about
those perky creatures
and their special features

Lifers, twitcher, tertial and lores
are nothing but the birding terms
Introduce, birding to the children,
As that would make kids pen

Their mesmerizing melodious calls 
and the raising tunes...
