"Someday, somewhere - anywhere, unfailingly, you'll find yourself, and that, and only that, can be the happiest or bitterest hour of your life." ~ Pablo Neruda
I sail through citrine waves of the moon’s pulse,
weaving my spark from sea-stars
numb to the blaze of a dream-lashed gaze ~
mute to the masked mist of ghosts,
as somehow between the seraphic sighs
of rising Luna and the aching sun,
there I found my muse crawling and cradling~
clouds of love bathed in luminous lavender…
So tonight, must I heed black-magic mantras,
spelled in neon gold by lips that lie,
or shall I wade through caramelized clarity,
for I’ve long homed hues of blooming twilight,
brushing the wistful heart of waning dusk,
drowning fiery flares within vain veins,
while the wind assumes I’ll touch no sand,
anchored by timeless traces of poetry...
Whether it's the waves that are rising high at Half Moon Bay;
Or low tides flowing across the soft sands of Ocean Beach;
Or the ever-present sound of seagulls dancing with the winds;
Or from the Cliff House watching ships sail through the Golden Gate;
Or my kids and I getting splashed by high tides on a Sunday afternoon;
My brain is in tune with the tides, and I hear the fog horns, but my heart
is wondering about the ship that's just arriving from the Far East loaded with
'Made In China" products replacing what used to be made in America.
My heart pains for the underpaid workers sweating to deliver to us 'low prices'. My heart dares to ask, "Do we care how this was made and who
made it?" My heart and I stare at each other as I sit speechless, never answering my heart.
Although I cannot see Pearl Harbor, I know that it's over there and my heart
aches for the families of the thousands of soldiers who lost their lives there.
And beyond Pearl Harbor, there lies Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan where the atomic bombs were dropped. Oh, as I watch the ever-changing tidal waves with my eyes, I cannot begin to describe my heart's feeling about all these heartbreaking events and so many more as I look across the Pacific. Notwithstanding, there's an ocean of irony because the sea sights are awesome and the sounds are soothing to my heart.
Reason, are you thinking twice?
Idea, freely roll.
Poison, pen, and paradise!
Grind the golden goal!
When do dreams hit deck deterred?
Carrion crow, thy bird.
When the winner comes in third!
Anguish, how you stirred!
Hell and Heaven, hither hie.
All good people lie?
Warrior wounded, thy cold cry!
Dismay means to die...
Tympani, tomorrow.
Roll like a river deep.
Source, sail through the sorrow.
Caiman, time to creep.
Weather? It gets cold outside.
Weakness? Best to hide.
Windmill? Charge and woe betide.
Wharf rats have no pride.
Jamboree, thy goers.
O party, hand out fun.
Lawn, best call thy mowers.
O sugar, best get spun.
Dark fire, with me one more time!
Burn in riddles black!
Breaker point, upon me rhyme!
Heart of mine, attack!
Gods of death, deal wisdom out!
Suffering, to come!
O steppe horseman, when to shout?
When you have no drum...
My soul’s like a bird that was stuck in a snare
But lo! My dear God has released me from there
He strengthened me–gently He taught me to fly
And through His kind care, now I sail through the sky
I’m free now, and won’t be a captive again
For He has redeemed me from what life has been
And just like a bird, I have music to sing
With harmony joyous, I worship my King
I can’t help but sing with my Savior so near
The people of earth all my praises shall hear
My God’s my provider; He gives me my needs
The sparrow He sees and the ravens He feeds
Although my small nest must be made on this earth
The heaven’s my home, and the world’s of no worth
The wind of His Spirit shall guide where I go
It leads me to places that I didn’t know
He’s calling me higher–toward heaven above
I keep flying toward Him, sustained by His love
One day I’ll fly higher, and heaven I’ll see
I’ll fly to my Savior, eternally free
Come, O sorrows and be my waking call,
Be to my life of joys a bit of blight,
Upon a hard day's work a short respite,
Be pleasant autumn before barren fall.
Come with dark clouds of rain with silver line,
Soften my joys, set me for looming pain,
Show Buddha smile with subtle smirk so fine
That takes mid-path hailing both sun and rain.
Life’s no undiluted desert of grey grief
Devoid of any a cool breeze of joy,
If too smooth gets ride to a far off cliff,
Thrills get short like a child’s joy of new toy.
Come O sorrows, come as my surprise treat,
An unknown thrill there’s in getting way-lost,
Let even reaching right come at some cost,
After sour taste water tastes somewhat sweet.
Come that my cup of joy fills up a full,
He that hath felt no grief feeleth no joy,
Come to make my joys and sorrows equal,
Be my welcome guest, shy nor ever coy.
And O Sorrows, not just that ye visit,
Dig unto me deeper carves that would last,
So that when joys come more of them can fit,
Capacities have I for both so vast.
And O thou, I well know: in this dual world,
The dancing duals dance in such a way,
They become two balanced wings of a bird,
Twain of life like dark and light, night and day.
Come, waver not; help me sail through life’s sea,
Let waves of joy and sorrow therein clash,
Let it but one seamless continuum be,
As twain thou hast but one soul, dual flesh.
Come to complete my lifelong melody,
Make one whole my truncated joy and bliss,
And conclude my unfinished symphony,
Come to give me a life-sustaining kiss.
If people equate thee with a dark cloud,
Worry not, for I know: there’s no rainbow
Without clouds, discard that guilt-covered shroud,
Soon as a storm subsides, peace does follow.
Two hearts that come together in sorrows
Stay united for long with stronger ties,
And love cleansed with mutual tears farther goes,
Joy and sorrows are no adversaries.
Joy and grief birds be roosting on same tree,
And never known to get separated,
I know, when one wishes to visit me,
The other’s just asleep right in my bed.

Musings | 15.10.15 | ode
I’ll walk for my journey has long begun
I’ll walk for I don’t know where to return
I’ll walk through the night to the colored dawn
I’ll walk through the mist to promised horizon.
You’ll wait for me in the shadow of the cloud
You’ll wait for me until I come out of shroud
You’ll wait until my ordained journey ends
You’ll wait for me until I hold your hands.
I’ll sail for I need to reach the safe shore
I’ll sail over heaving waves even if they soar
I’ll sail through the tempest to the serene sea
I’ll sail under dark sky pole star not with me.
You’ll stand on the shore like high rocky cliff
You’ll stand to see me float like a tiny leaf
You’ll stand with a beacon in your heart
You’ll stand until I reach you not to depart.
Whatever happens I’ll reach the dawn beyond the night
For I know I won’t ever be out of your protective sight
The sky may fall I’ll reach the shore from waves’ height
For I know you’re my light.

Together For Peace:
Exercise AMAN 2024:
O call of Duty call of Peace
We are here.We are here.
O earth beloved all of Peace.
We are here.We are here.

Come share the knowledge of the known
O warmth blessing you live long

Soul of Such moment is Noble.
Whisper of truth is unison
These chanting echoes are global.
No matter what we call it so,
As all the Oceans paint in Blue.
We sail through the tide of Love.

By Aliza Mukhtiar
(Wems Henry Temmy Psalm 80)
I have avoid many a problem
My own way painting lines of poem
None solved or boost my morale
I just ended up being a chorale
But You; oh Lord, when You are here
My low self esteem saddened and disappear
Arrogance has filled the emptiness
Pride has always cause clumsiness
Self worth has never been of value
Challenges are to me impromptu
But You; oh Jehovah, when You show
My focus beats its best reality to grow
Many certainly don't want to fall
Some honorary adhere to its call
Attitudinal ego may not be of pride
If it turns out to fix right every tide
But You; oh God, when You give a hand
My doubts couldn't convincingly stand
Few wish but couldn't stand right
Others whose strength bear the fight
Can't conquer the least in their efforts
For on it they solely depend in comforts
But You; oh Alpha and Omega, when You hint
My mind; its influences, cautions imprint
Unseen is for compliment so nasty
Seen is weak more like a rhinoplasty
Everyone is just different in grace
To sail through huddles of time cum race
But You; oh Trinity, when You shed radiance
My heart retreats all pleasing deviance
The debt is settled on the cross
In the grave, the battle is won -- bye loss
Getting the home prepared for every guest
Training work and faith to the time of rest
Yes You; oh Jesus, when You shall tell
My ears the earthly story, let me be off hell.
Amen!
A sense of awe,
The great beyond
Summoned my mind of male.
It pierced my soul this night of old
And set my horizons to sail.
To sail through the vastness of time
Through the long corridors of life
Through the chambers of the GODS
And took my soul to fight.
Beyond the planets,
Beyond the stars,
The heavens did extend their arms
And open forth a cherished amore,
"My love"
This night.
For as i gaze at space and time
And at the milky ways,
I wonder of the rays of light
That govern my every day.
I wonder of the life i yet to have
I sence a need to be
A lonely women this night alive
Yes that's me,
And no one but me.
Is love but love alone
The great beyond has said,
Gaze at my way,
Women,
I looked and looked and spied my star,
A speck of light so true,
And stared and shared that night impaired
And found my love was you!!!
Oh'
The cosmos of love.
I don't believe in half measures,
to live by such is solely to live but not to be alive.
I want to experience the beauty of life in all of its manifestations.
I want to feel the spray on my face as I sail through singing along with the Sirens.
There is no past and no future wherein we live,
only an eternal present, and within this I want to love you; to love you fully, strongly, and steadfastly.
If my love doesn't melt your heart then all you need say is stop.
For to live alive is to embrace all things, and
No matter how great there is no pain which out weighs the joy of love shared by those who dare.
