As the sky shields the earth with a layer of crystal sphere.
As the wind glides along the space whispering secrets;
that only birds and trees understand.
As the sun drowns in the breast of the hills
and bids the world goodbye with a golden hug
As the moon emerges with a smile
that show its newly bleached teeth.
As the diamond stars suspend like dragon flies
and wink at the most beautiful planet.
So does my soul spread its fins and dive
Dive into the heights and depths of your eyes.
Dive into the ocean of dreams with no end.
And swim over the boundaries of time
Swim in the world of life's eternal gift.
In the world that lies in you.
Only in you.
In my nature.
Deserts stretching as far as the eyes can see
Lake beds and rivers
Once teaming with life lie dormant
Most dried with cracked mud
A lovely pattern of cracks
As intricate as any spider’s web
Hills which once were covered with trees
Plush and green
Full of life
All gone in fire and heat
Not even a blade of grass remains
Naked and barren
Their stone reaches for the sky
A sky of unending heat
With no breezes, no rain to cool it
It roasts all who looked for a single cloud
A cloud that never arrived
What has man wrought upon the world?
A world that a gracious God loaned to them
Green, plush and inviting to human kind
They did not realize what they did
Lives ended in the name of progress
Lands decimated to feed the living
Now, man is gone
The animals are gone
All that is left is a dead planet
Without a single blade of grass to start again
Was this God’s plan?
Or did man try to go beyond God’s plan?
A stupid fumbling child
Thinking that he was more than God
With that thought he destroyed a world
And with the world he destroyed himself
All in the name of progress
Form:
The world outside, it shines so bright;
And every breath of wind – so warm
Should comfort with its sweet caress,
The inner realm of rain and storm
But summer’s kiss still cannot break,
The spell of frost, nor soothe the ache
That binds my spirit to the ground,
Where only suffering surrounds
The space between, I cannot bridge,
So rests a place where each might share,
The welcome of another world,
Though neither, for the other, cares
And so the sun, for all her warmth,
Will never reach this place beyond;
And so the trees, for all their hues,
Can never, to this face, respond
For here lies storm which never dies,
And though inviting Earth will try
To calm the seas so deep and dark,
It will remain a world apart.
The night was long, heralded by wind and rain
The weary voice of a sleeping world suspended
Fanned are the dreams that seem to fly on wings
And heavy lay the dreary clouds decended
Over distant hills, a waking day embraces
Fading darkness with morning's dew kissed charms
Earth and sun, two 'twining hearts together
In gladness joined with fervant tender arms
Softly silent, crests the rising of the sun
Dimming stars that fade along a morning mist
Like flames upon the sleepy earth awakened
In welcome voice, a greeting's golden kiss
The blushing sky in brightest woven fabric
Lighten hearts, lifts eyes in awe attended
Yellow fields alive, and crimson trees
Behold the beauty of a world becoming splendid
Ovation to a song of morning sunrise!
Winds that rustle leaves that sleeping lay
Answered humbled prayers upon the alter
My grateful soul awakes to praise this day!!

For HG's Contest "Sunrise vs Sunset" contest, By Carrie Richards
A golden disc setting beneath azure waves
Rays of fading light reach for passing clouds
Turning them into brilliant gold
Gulls float by on summer breezes
Crying their good nights to the world below
They look for a place to roost
To rest their tired wings
Waves that pounded the shores all day
Smooth out creating a sheet of liquid glass
The dying amber light makes it look surreal
Pure and shiny as a flawless mirror
It reflects the first of the evening’s stars
For a moment the world is quiet
The wind, the waves and the birds lay in silence
Resting from a long day of living
Waiting for the light of new day
Which will come way to soon
And life…it will begin again
Dusk,
dressed in
mauve feathers,
bared pink shoulders,
with come-hither snare,
touches the foolish Sun
with a spectrum of red lips…
Up so many stairs they will trod,
shutting the world alone in the dark..
New lovers who stroll through gardens of night
And as nightingale and the crickets cry
Spurned world sets her brain adrift to weep
putting out the lights of her eyes
shuttered in forsaken bed …
Crescent moon stands vigil
Until capricious
Sun, with fickled
breath,… breezes
in with
Dawn

The Heavenly Lovers
I saw two heavenly Lovers,
Meeting like man and Woman,
High in the sky.
They were standing,
Like two heavenly dwellers,
Trying to understand each other.
The wind was fast and cool,
The Sun rays were touching their hairs;
They met for few moments,
As if, they knew that no one can Stay in this world too much.
I was watching them intensely,
With A Camera in my hand.
I took their Photos,
To tell the world that I have seen,
The Lovers, who came from the other world.
The beauty of their silent love gazing,
Will continue to live in my mind,
Like the song of the immortal Love,
But they vanished with the breeze
While floating on wind,
Before anyone could have noticed.
Only I was left standing there,
With a small camera in my hand.
I was trying to trace the foot prints of those Lovers
Who had vanished in the sky with the wind.

Good Morning 2/2
East West North & South
And only those would survive,
Who have peace in mind and love in their hearts and the understanding
To live and let live
Rest who have
Guns in hand, powder on face and hatred in hearts* are likely
To see soon one day, their own created all designs lost or would vanish
In their own erected world of violence and war.
But alas! then, nothing may leave on earth
To say Good Morning O Beautiful Almighty God
In the far far west a tall, dark and mighty man was still working
While leaning back on his working chair,
To find solutions,
Solution of many of his own country’s problems
And many of the world unique problems, his people too
Were getting impatient and time was running from hands
On the other hand the black smoke problem of the world
Was getting worse and worse, which had earlier engulfed
His own nation shaking the entire world
He know if it is not taken care of, it could wipe out the
Humanity for ever from earth
And now it was bursting out at different places on earth
Even blocking the Sunlight to reach on earth
The Sunbeams were far still away from his place
And the solutions too were not visible anywhere
He was lost so much so in his deep and perplexing thoughts
That he could not see the messages in the form of blinking lights
Were calling him to pick and press the right knob
To see the solutions too, which so far could not enter his mind
He was trying to mark only already marked some black spots
On the map and missed those, which were blinking low
Due to too many pre tried strong notions, which were hovering in his mind,
Leaving hardly a small space for the new solutions to come in
The tall man fell asleep in the early morning hours, when it was still dark
And the Sun beams and morning glow were still far far away from him
His Good Morning was still to come from him
And many in the outside world were waiting for him to wake-up,
So the tired world may get some sound sleep

• ‘Guns in hand, powder on face and hatred in hearts’.
These words were once spoken by the late President
of India Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, who was also a teacher
of philosophy in UK university and was a great thinker.
once a vibrant blue
with humidity on the rise
storm clouds quickly grew
rain fell with no surprise
a visible sun directly above
covered by shades of grey
it's radiance shines occasionally
on this dark and gloomy day
i'ved heard stories
reasons why it rains
that god is filled with worry
agony and pain
shedding tears of sorrow
upon this world he built
washing away impurities
cleansing the world of it's filth
the rain starts slow and light
thunder begins to roar
fury shows its might
the rain begins to pour
as quickly as it came
the clouds begin to sway
the suns radiance withstands
what a bright and sunny day

Sunrise breaks over the east so innocently as did the birth of creation
The Dawn rising to reclaim her throne from the night time's reign
Serenely, majestically, displaying her light as blinding as white linen
The chorus of the morning singing her praises, the return of the Queen
Fields dance in her warmth, their colors heightening from her touch
As the shadows run from view, a new vision of the day is born
Birds take to flight across the clouds of frosted blue and white
The world stirs, all is well
Sadly her reign is short lived
As sunset breaks over the east so innocently as did the first death
The dusk casting her blanket of darkness, the throne now set for the return of the King
Owls twitter as they awaken from their sleep
Nocturnal world answering the call of the Moon
And so the pattern continues
Life progresses
The Monarchy of the skies
Supreme in their own time and realms
One of silver one of gold
The treasure's of nature
For all to behold
