Premium Member Life Is a Term Lease

This wreath is in your eidetic memory, yet you should live.
            Can you receive my lament, which is almost to happen?
There is no garland as I plummet, rattled by the sieve.
Died with you, can't revive, as you lie on plush and satin.
                        Earth collapses beneath its weight—why was it to be that way?
The words reflect that living beings are welcome today.
To read the stones, the lost will return home shortly to stay.
      The shade of gloom fosters a dark and virtuous decease. 
            Stashed spaceship shrines to scold scintillating stars in peace.
                        Among the outworn headstones, the moss knows the lease. 
There's a hushed quiescence here; no birds to chirp up or hive.
            The wind moans, the agony is veiled, and the heart blackens.
      Trusting that I would rest here, bereft of any rich ray.
            Leaving behind all my acrid-gained assets through a name cease.

Novice, Still Am I

Still a novice, 
pushed into world of avarice. 
Hearts gilded with greed, 
beautifully masked faces, so sweet indeed! 
Faces elated under twinkling night, 
welcoming your journey, 
in the corner, plotting, 
cruel indeed! 
Smiling lips, Scintillating eyes, 
feeding on your sorrows to survive. 

Still a tyro, 
struggling to thrive. 
Anima ingrained with misdeed, 
charmingly masked malice, sugary indeed! 
Faces basking under scorching sun, 
congratulating on your success, 
in the neck of the woods, conspiring, 
callous indeed!
Dancing body, singing voice, 
waiting for your sorrow to arrive!

Premium Member Illuming Temples Of Dust

 Flesh is Flesh and Dust is Dust
 though the Spirit Eternal, True and Just
 withered away that Spark Divine
 yet Kindles in Thy Soul of the Most High,
 In Thus, We Must, Illumine thy Torch So Bright
 that the Nights shall testify to this Ineffable Light,
 by Dross comes Fetters, by Knowledge we are Freed
 by Wisdom comes Foils, comes Kings and Queens
 where Temples Ignite, Illuming Great Stars and Dust
 we March Most High, So High, So Robust
 Blazing in Bonfires of Infinitudes
 to shake off the Rust, to shake off Similitudes
 Scintillating Thy Lantern of thy Soul upon thy Great Precipice
 standing aloft upon Thy Spiritual Edifice of Excellence,
 never Diminish that Ember that Shines So Stellar
 for we are All Interstellar,
 beyond the Deluge of the Carnal Mind 
 we ride the Celestial Zephyr for by the Wind and by the Stars we are Intertwined
 so Sublime when we Let It Shine
 where All Is Eternal and All Is Divine

Premium Member Heartbroken

“The fervent garden grieves as the fallen flowers called love 
enwrap the shards of broken heart” – Quote by poet 


A sleek crack in remoteness is split open
in the rocky ledge of your garden
by a sapling growing in splendor, 
free from the confining burden.  

A lone bud blooms uncared,
blushes with the pristine patina of spring  
within my heart like a luring flower, 
called love mesmerizing. 

In your embrace my senses delicately turn
into the rhythm of heart enchanted within,
set the lingering longing so long latent
to sail in the stream of my desire keen.

In the passion sea of my yearning the rapture waves 
shine like swirling pearls of your smile illumined.
With the mesmeric moonbeam lattice of your charm,
its sparkle splashes on my essence entwined.

In the scintillating stream of zooming zephyr, 
as you drift away unconcerned past me, 
and blow a devastating storm of apathy, 
my fervor is fragmented in the debris of ecstasy.

Suffused with the diffused drizzle 
of my fading love in the tarnished twilight,
you disappear out of my sight 
beyond the gloomy garden once a den of delight.  

Your flouting footsteps trample  
my emotive flower as you depart,
its crumbled petals make a wreath 
for the strewn pieces of my broken heart.

Night Journeys

Scintillating lights softly dancing with the moon 
dreamy music playing from the halls of our memory 
this is your story and this is mine 

Tall willowy blades of grass leaning gently towards hills 
midnight fantasies that calm our weary minds 
this is your place and this is mine 

Secrets of lives yet untold beneath the honest stars 
each thought becomes a healing bless of joyful rest 
this is your moment of glory and also mine   

Glide with me towards tomorrow leave behind all sorrow 
join the magic of night's journey and come away with me 
this is your story, and it is also mine.

Premium Member Oasis At Heart of City

There is a …
                      A tranquil sanctuary at the heart of a busy city…
                 Not many colourful flowers, but shady trees, and lush
                                              green bushes, 
            A serene pond with emerald water quivering with rustling breeze,
                      Rocks of different sizes and shapes scattered around - 
                      one reminds me of lying Buddha, peaceful and calm, 
           another -  Buddha in meditation - folding his legs in a lotus posture. 

                          There are a few stone-benches around the pond .. 
                             for lazy folks like me! who savour watching! 
                       ducks and turtles are only water-creatures I could see, 
                                  some fishes…circling around carefree,

                          Wish a scintillating mermaid from a magical world 
                       would appear from the bottom of the turquoise water,  
                                          to spread her charm around…
            
              Sun shining in crystal water …scattering rays in the rippled mirror ....

A Duck sits placidly on a rock alone… as if she wants to bask in the whispering glow of sun!

Premium Member Golden Sunset Breeze

Saw one blazing red leaf on the shimmering Maple,
                         On my way back from a refreshing stroll, 
                         One Red Leaf - indicated the stark truth,
                        Fall is tiptoeing with her secret footsteps, 
                             Luminously veiled autumn not far! 
                      Spotted a flock of migrating Geese gliding by - 
                            Are they already departing? Where? 

                              Ravishing crimson Roses beaming 
                          On the bush besides the wooden fence, 
                 A few sad dried petals sprawl dejected at the bottom, 
                Redbreast Robin in euphoria, still crooning full-throated, 
                   Fleecy warmth of air fleeting away, are birds aware? 
                       Truly intoxicated with the aroma of sunshine, 
                  Even for a moment, do not stop trilling at each other!  

                         Crispy, chilly, wind waltz with twirling leaves, 
                    I smell scintillating autumn fluttering and frolicking,
                       Spiralling, swirling in the golden sunset breeze.

Premium Member Destined To Ride

 I Traversed the Inner Universe Deep Within my Soul
 and Slayed the Dragon Oppressor up on it's High Horse,
 It seemed Prophetic
 To Rise Into the Greater Nature, Balancing Scales for the Cosmic
 Destined To Ride
 Saddled Up, Ever-Onward through the Fire
 Illuminating Attire of Gold, Light and Sapphire
 Ascending Ever-Brighter, Ever-Higher
 It seemed Fate had found me through Perdition
 Reborn into Wings of No Religion,
 Trailblazing Cosmic Realms, Blitzing Through the Heavens
 Scintillating in Salvation for All Brethren,
 Expelling The Darkness, A Revolutionary Exodus
 Illumination is the Calling, I Rendezvous with Excellence
 I Rise like Lazarus through the Muck and Grime
 Lotus Born, I let my Eight Petals Shine
 Burning Flames from the Heart, Sparked the Soul to Life
 I AM Cosmo Man, I Am Star Bright
 And There, in the Abyss where the Great Mystery Dwells
 where Time is as Ancient as it's Magic Spell,
 Above the Threshold, Beyond the Great Divide
 I AM One with The Source, One with the Divine
 Trodding towards The Gates Of The Promise land
 Through The Valleys Of Shambala, The Sacred Heart Of Man
 Where Many are Called, but only a Few Still Ride
 The Wild, The Chosen, Crusaders Of Light
 Summoned  By Destiny, Tribe Of Judah and Jerusalem
 Herald The Trumpets,   Returns The Spirit Of Bethlehem
