Beauty-My Mother-Suprise

Expectedly it came and she knew it
Those sleepless and there were many of those
The rareness of bonding session with her ,my mother
The multitasking of motherhood
The goal had to be achieved at all cost
The determination that was displayed
The support that was given for a remarkable woman
The days, months ,years  of hard work finally paid off
The honouring of a family name
And she had done exactly that

We had planned it well to the last detail
So many things to do and so little time
It was a surprise all right
My big sister Ruth had to come down from Cape Town
Who else was going to execute this plan, if she is not here
And besides it was her speciality
We had to thread carefully, no loop holes were allowed
To be discreet was the middle word
To be thankful was part of her nature, my mother
And she deserved exactly that

The creativity was in the atmosphere
As the decorations were awesome
Yeah, it was no child play
The smell from the kitchen, made the mouth watering
Left the tummy to make funny noises
The ladies had done a great job
Yep, the champagne and the wine, all the goodies
The weather was just a blessing
And the outfit was a show stopper

Yep, the guests were amazing
In their academic wear, I tell you
Yes, the family had arrived
In their best behaviour, hilarious was the norm for the day
Her close friends,
Whom she had walked with on this journey
Her mother, she was just speechless
Her only husband, he was just too  proud of her
And we all knew that
She will be thankful

"In the theory of personality, the conscious mind consists of
everything inside of our awareness. This is the aspect of our
mental processing that we can think and talk about rationally.
                                         
                                            Quote by _Sigmund Freud
        

After birth our bodies are aging,
slowly ... but by forty we notice the changes:
with cells and with bones a war is raging.
We notice that our muscles have less ranges;
we have bothersome metacarpals and phalanges !

Oh, each of us have lived life in chapters.
with ups and downs we are a constant changing book:
experience make us good adapters.
We just float ... flowing along like a forest brook;
and know real truth from just silly gobbledygook !

All through life there is constant awareness,
it ebbs and flows ... changing and we see ourselves:
and hopefully our unique rareness.
Never let your life gather dust like books on shelves,
be aware ... encourage others to help themselves !

To be aware is to know who you are,
your thoughts, dreams, character traits and even your flaws:
oh, be aware of this world ...  close and far.
When upset don't get angry and bring out the claws;
be aware, step back, take a breath and a long pause !

CHAPTER SEVEN
 


this seventh month… a handful of sun dust
greets my aurora skin, touching every
lace of foliage: buttered stems, blushing leaves,
soft-boiled branches with upturned eyes
silky in the veil of July’s palette
face. farther on,

i wanted to smell its rareness,
how my own raw eyes pass behind occasional
veins and wiggling ridges, wondering the
maleness and femaleness of their palms
receding then whirling underneath my
feet ,receiving the ancient chant of some wild
calm…

how intangible this soft fire in 
my belly, splattering like auburn harvest 
of wheat thrusting unto air
chambers of sun nymphet honored
in all shades---the emerald, garnet,
sapphire of paradise patch as if 
saved from the kaleidoscope of month’s past, 
slowly cuddling every sinner and lover the ember 

that feeds on harps and cancer -zodiac stones.

Contest no 300 Premiere

Premium Member Be A Bright Spark

Though this world is dark
With the egotism of man
Everywhere
Throughout the mundane greyness of every day life

There are sparks of beauty
Sparks that give us a view 
through the foggy blindedness
Of man's vicious fight for life and recognition

Sparks of every colour
Personality, religion and race 
Some are a close part of our lives 
But most are strangers 

The random chance 
The right place at the right time 
And the rareness of them 
Makes the meeting of a spark 

All the more of a priceless treasure 

Some have the light of compassion 
Some possess great understanding 
Others true innocence 
Or a gentleness that heals broken people 

Some have the ability to judge honestly 
And still love you anyway 
There are those who use their gift of knowledge 
Only for the goodness of others 

Those whose calmness 
Eases the mighty waves of terror 
And those with genuine generosity 
Who would give you their last morsel 

Some with true empathy 
For those who can't get up from the gutter 
A random word of kindness 
Given when most needed 

A friendly smile 
That makes you feel like you matter 
A helping hand
That pulls you up when you've fallen 

So many different sparks of light in a day 
So many colours they give us 
To chase away the shadows 
The smog in our minds 

Rainbows that touch us 
As we move through time 
Lighten the weight on our hearts 
And open our eyes to the beauty around 

Look for the rainbows and crystals 
Colours in our misty lives 
Appreciate them 
And be grateful for those moments 

That we got touched by one 
And the world lightened for you 
No matter how brief 
Or how expansive 

Your heart will be softer 
Bringing a smile to your face 
Which gives light to others 
Who can't see in the dark 

And you too become one 
You spread the light 
One of the crystals and rainbows 
Brightening up our world

Premium Member Medusa Distorted Dandelion

Medusa arrived like most dandelions
All over the place with a bobbly head
She was an anomaly, a work of art.
She exuded a rareness; she was unique.

I watched her fill up the dandelion patch.
She overtook her sisters and brothers.
A giant in their midst, Medusa was a catch.
I lugged strangers into my yard to see her.

She is no dandelion! Some would say.
Then what is she? They would examine her.
Some wanted to take her apart in dissection.
I sent them packing.

I stopped bringing strangers in to peer at her.
I felt I had violated her trust enough already.
The other dandelions started turning.
I photographed proof of Medusa.
