Premium Member Refining Consciousness

People who crave as much leaping as birds
Those who are angry and seem to be furious
And those with a vulture's appetite for wealth
Drawn ones react similarly to owls when lured
Prideful people gird themselves akin to eagles
Those invidious postures as a pack of hounds

Avoiding war is crucial to developing wealth!
"War" in three letters! Have men bled, even birds?
War hinders all the delights, making us furious!
Blast, blood, heavy weapons, and army hounds
Yet judicious people who lack peace draw lured!
Innocent troops fight innocent lives alike eagles.

After wandering through biased realms, lured
Faces after faces elsewhere, such as eagles
Heroes perish, and fools utmost worry is wealth
Heroes are in tears, while cowards are furious
Cowards lie, yet they weep alike devoted hounds
We slip deeper into the abyss of lunacy as birds.
 
The laughter and fun flowed fast and furious
for the sake of saving the reward and vast wealth
The initial dread triggers prejudice once lured 
I sobbed when the moon whispered to the birds 
And visualize us soaring on the backs of eagles
Swung their deadly jaws at us such as hounds. 
 
Greedy cries reverberate from the circling hounds
Often carried out to ponder, indignant, and lured
False funds, in fact, sprout wings akin to eagles
Arbitrary knowledge was fed by graft and wealth 
The truth is that people are as soulless as birds
Recognition heralds the start of the shift, not furious.

Let's soar to hone our craft with doves and eagles 
And reasoning from true reflection among hounds 
Share the honey of flowers and the songs of birds
Set life goals to be reliable and truthful, not furious
With God's blessings, all is feasible, including wealth
If inner sight leans, retain spotless life, even if lured.

Infinite bliss sows the seeds of peace and wealth
A fervent need for union with God's bliss, not furious
Incentives from the heavens rain down like birds.

Political debate
Sense and nonsense;
Emotional postures

~~~~~~~~~


Strange faces
Prowling vampires;
Blood bank rapture

~~~~~~~~~


Another field day
Fiery speeches;
Free-for-all postures

~~~~~~~~~


Scramble around
Hustle and bustle;
"Vote for me!"

~~~~~~~~~


Easy promises
Entertaining smudges;
Crazy claims galore

~~~~~~~~~


Witness here
Good, bad, and ugly;
Vote with eyes open

~~~~~~~~~


Empty talk hurls
Acidic vitality;
Bizarre entertainment!

~~~~~~~~~


Floodgates open
Hungry ghost festival;
Be ever mindful

~~~~~~~~~


Be still my heart
Let the truth dawn;
Follow your heart

~~~~~~~~~


Here we go again
Lots of campaigns;
Lacking substance

~~~~~~~~~


Seeing is believing
Hearing is deceiving;
Too much noise

Pine For Cendyn

Partnering with hotels all across the planet.
Cendyn helps so trip organizers can plan it.
Managing data and guest information.
So travelers can plan their best vacation.
 
Aiding resorts in dozens of nations.
Boosting their online reputations.
Creating great proposals for best perception.
Getting visitors in the hotel guest reception.
 
Managing displays online of the menus.
From cell phones visitors can peruse.
Guests can easily see what dining to choose.
Relying only on costly paper displays will amuse.
 
Merging with competition to boost the hotel industry.
Fighting for deals will be a thing of NextGuest history.
Working with resellers like Amadeus.
Delivering the services on behalf of us.
 
We hear the struggles from COVID closures.
Of hotel employees facing varied exposures.
Our contacts have been wearing many hats.
As we’ve learned from our checkup chats.
 
We are here to help them weather the storm.
Adjusting our postures and changing our form.
Making changes together to adapt and stay strong.
Collaborating to make the relationships last long.
 
We are not completely out of the weeds.
But we’ve been cultivating dynamic seeds.
We’ve taken a hit and weathered the pain.
Empathizing the hotel challenges to maintain.
 
Using the tools to outsmart a global recession.
Helping resort staff handle their role succession.
Reaching customers to get dynamic outcomes.
By collaborating to reel in some profitable sums.
 
Last year we cried poverty but now we cry for joy.
Helping staff play with the tools as if it’s just a toy.
Innovating for the future and adapting to the fight.
Only success for Cendyn and clients is what’s in sight.

Premium Member The Bitter Museum


In the bitter museum the past is on parade
in postures of reproach. Vast corridors
display a thousand ways of being ashamed
and illustrate the progress of despair.

Behind their glass, the mannequins of once
exhibit all the wealth of worlds now gone,
and frozen in their accusatory dance
the avatars of loss are labelled Done.

In the bitter museum extinguished dynasties
of hope set forth their monuments, inscribed
in that dead language, laughter. Vanished breeds
of joy are shown, regretfully alive.

The relics seem so real they almost leer.
In the bitter museum the dust is streaked with tears.

Park bench encounter
Old man staring;
Faraway look

~~~~~~~~~


Financial district
Business downturn;
By this fringe

~~~~~~~~~


Stormy evening
Rain flows like oil;
Lightning dazzles

~~~~~~~~~


Lift landing
Blank faces congregate;
Alone together

~~~~~~~~~


Wind on my face
Rushing home;
Rain water wets

~~~~~~~~~


Somnolent interlude
Cricket musical;
Deep dark night

~~~~~~~~~


One by one
Bougainvilleas wither;
Floral carpet

~~~~~~~~~


Pre-war terrace house
Old time architecture;
Four bougainvillea pots

~~~~~~~~~


Bus stop crowd
Two others plus me;
A long wait

~~~~~~~~~


Chinese barbecue pit
Chinese roast meat shop;
Long customer queue

~~~~~~~~


Unique antiques
Old proprietor smiles;
Curious shop sign

~~~~~~~~~


Fashion parade
Glamour girls waltz;
Runway postures

~~~~~~~~~


Beer and buzz
Evening outing;
Boozy conversations

~~~~~~~~~


Parkway passage
Playground gossip;
Maids chatter

~~~~~~~~~


Hymn of morning
Birdsong choral;
Lost in translation

~~~~~~~~~


Huge ancient tree
Witness to change;
Silent sentinel

~~~~~~~~~


Humid overtures
Sun without wind;
Temperature runs riot

~~~~~~~~~


Chit-chat moment
Old lady neighbour;
Market trip

~~~~~~~~~


Weary legs struggle
Heavy load in tow;
Footsteps homeward

~~~~~~~~~

Fight Corona Through Breathing and Music 2 of 2

 

Fight Corona Through Breathing and Music 2 of 2

This Video* is a Free Gift to suffering human beings
from me for all my friends and non friends, 
on Poetry Soup, face book, Twitter, Instagram and 
on pinterest etc  anywhere in the world.
Video URL: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sa5F6v0OjQ&t=28s


Please continue doing your normal physical exercises or other Yoga postures as usual without breaking them after doing the 5 to 15 minutes of my suggested Musical Yoga as it is a kind of Pranayam and an alternative way to do Kapal Bhati ( abdomen exercise) the most difficult of Yoga Exercise. 

The third most important thing is that when you practice this Musical Exercise keep the audio on high so that you can sing with the Music of the video while concentrating your mind on breathing and music.

Imp. NOTE: This Video is not a medicine of Corona but it is a wonderful precaution to keep Corona away from us, as much it is possible, as it improves our general immune system.

Premium Member Galilee

night had begun to beseech 
thy wretchedness covered 
deeply amidst toiling postures 
craving naught gently i'd withered 

throughout the infamous 
meanings according to mark 
while i'd entered a certain realm 
surrounded by lost pebbles 

underneath st anthony's 
weathered sandals 
we are but martyrs 
wailed from an aching voice
 
of a fragile old woman captured 
within haste soiled 
by the very nature henceforth 
seen as cleansing thee earths core 

bottled just so catering to 
the whelms of st francis 
while day redeemed 
sudden past times for the jest 

marking the dawn at play 
lessons folded between 
creases that behold gravity 
clinging to crawling vines 

soiled in indifference
why we manage to master 
the suns ray an yet hide 
from the moon under my feet 
 
noticing an open gate 
concealing wrath beyond 
a daunting task measured 
in pure completeness

Premium Member Reasons

Dawn hurls
Day in re-birth;
Touching moments


Light kisses earth
Touch of magic;
A new dawn


Daylight removes
Deep darkness;
Birdsong greeting


Waiting
Is over now;
Illumination comes


Morning delight
Sparkling beauty;
Nature reveals secrets


Sunshine
Postures anew;
Life's philosophy


Fresh ideas
Pleasant coinage;
Adrenaline rush


Words queue
Symbols transit;
Transient exploits


Fresh insights
Emerge and endow;
Humanity barters


Lovely day
To do nothing;
Just observe happenings


Take a break
From mere doing;
Slip into happiness

Rainy weather
Unpredictable;
Drenching everything

~~~~~~~~~


Mother and child
Dance with drizzle;
Laughter and giggles

~~~~~~~~~


Happy lives here
In my house;
A welcome guest

~~~~~~~~~


Chinese ghost festival
Lunar seventh month;
Wandering spirits tour

~~~~~~~~~


Prayers and offerings
For dead ancestors;
Win-win situation

~~~~~~~~~


Church calendar
So much happening;
May lasting peace abide

~~~~~~~~~


Gaza strip conflict
Nobody wins;
Both sides suffering

~~~~~~~~~


Wars do not end
Peace comes to the dead;
All else is Hell

~~~~~~~~~


Love is the cause
Of life -- and life
Embraces all

~~~~~~~~~


Words intervene
Hijacks silence;
Elegance signs

~~~~~~~~~


Exuberance oozes
Fond passion moves;
Artistic postures

~~~~~~~~~


August in tears
Sun on vacation;
Wet masquerades

~~~~~~~~~


Emotional departure
Gone forever;
Death is relentless

~~~~~~~~~


Bedtime story
Repeat broadcast;
Night after night

~~~~~~~~~


50 shades of grey
Nothing erotic;
Hair strands on bald patch

~~~~~~~~~


Speak softly
Death's at the door;
Don't disrupt business

~~~~~~~~~


Change 
Strange;
Deranged

~~~~~~~~~


Moon glow magic
Through dreary air;
Eerie anti-climax

~~~~~~~~~


By that stone bench
Distant Chinese pavilion;
Ghostly presence

~~~~~~~~~


Giant moths circle
Waiting to die;
Messy debris 

~~~~~~~~~


Dreamy moonlight
Mid-autumn surprise;
Moon cakes and desserts

~~~~~~~~~
