                                                         Tail transformed to legs

Universe
                                       
                            
         Universe is now well ordered whole interacting entity. We explore and try to perceive through our senses. Was there any Master Plan? Was there any Creator? 
 .
                            Dark void was Cosmos
                                 No Matter, no Energy
                                         No Space set

                                Big Bang exploded.
                                  Energy, Matter appeared.
                                 Space sets, Time was on.

  Matter, Energy, Space were captivated by Gravitational singularity. All were squeezed in infinitesimal small dense super extreme hot state. Cataclysmic explosion termed as Big Bang gave birth to Universe Instantly Universe started to expand rapidly everywhere round.
 . Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Big Bang just released the already –existing Energy.
  .At birth Universe was not ‘Big’, but smaller than a single proton. Explosion didn’t come up as ‘Bang’.It was like a snap breaking sharply 
                     
   Sea of sub atomic particles appeared 
               within one second of Big Bang.
       Protons, electrons, neutrons, positrons, 
        neutrinos and photons all sang.
      As high as ten Billions degree Celsius  
  Bell of tremendous temperature rang
    Photons influenced by free electrons sprang.

  
  From opaque state Universe suddenly turned transparent illuminated by after-glow cosmic microwave radiation. Gigantic clouds of primordial Cosmos particles coalesced by Gravitational Pull.Cluster of stars and galaxies started formation.
    Within three minutes simple atomic nuclei came up. Universe continued to cool down.Thousand years passed to shape electrically neutral atom.
                          
 .Gravitational pull was supposed to control the expansion of Universe. But Universe is going on expanding. Far away are the galaxies, greater is the acceleration to recede. Something other than Matter or Energy is pushing distant galaxies apart.

        This mysterious stuff is not to ignore.
    It is termed ‘Dark Energy’, yet to explore.
          Will the expansion of Universe stop by chance?
   Or, will it ever crush on a Big Crunch ?

Premium Member Stones

Stones...

Some are whole.
Some are broken.
Some are cut.
Some are rough.
Some are coloured.
Some are shaped.
Some are smooth.
Some are jaggered.
Some have patterns.
Some can skim.

But all will sink...

Stones...

When I see them,
I see beauty.
I see uniqueness
And character.

The human heart 
Has, at times, been 
Termed to be a stone.
More often than not
Expressed in a
Negative tone.

But some stones will
Put smiles on faces.
Stones are possessed
By all races.

When I see them
I see durability.

I see how
I could be
Like them.

For stones are not
Defined by their appearance
By their source.
They remain unjudged
If used as weapons
For a force.

Stones are what 
They are.
Admired by you 
And me.

And we value them
By what we see...

Stones.

Premium Member The Magic of Worthwhile

Writers write to master the minds
like mine to master, be thines,
5th century Greek writers Patriarch
Herodotus, Thucydides and Plutarch.

They savor the flavor, 'Land Battles', be
Persia and Greece, intro 5th century.

Persian priests', called it magosh, then,
Greeks termed the word magoi when
it changed to mageia and then magika,
hence, precedes that illusion, magical. 

The battle itself was a point of focus,
but in reality, 'twas an uprising tempest,
all that matters merely meant confusion,
purpose the word, magic, sort of illusion.

At the start, a keen preceptor will take,
while the rest, smoke and mirror, mistake
goal to amuse, jam and jelly seize a fainted
a riddle connects the dots, numbers painted
a true picture of the taken as the takers smile
'MAGIC', those who knew & misknew, worthwhile.

Tomorrow

"Tomorrow"



I put my hand on your heart
You put your hand on my heart
A tender plot written in 3 lines

Nothing said
Nothing missed
Nothing guessed

Revolvers shoot sharp silent guard
Piercing words are played like a golden harp
Love is no science 

Tomorrow begins it never ends

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dawn_chorus_(electromagnetic)

1.2.1
The electromagnetic dawn chorus is a phenomenon that occurs most often at or shortly after dawn local time. With the proper radio equipment, dawn chorus can be converted to sounds that resemble birds' dawn chorus (by coincidence).

The electromagnetic dawn chorus is believed to be generated by a Doppler-shifted cyclotron interaction between anisotropic distributions of energetic (> 40 keV) electrons and ambient background VLF noise. These energetic electrons are generally injected into the inner magnetosphere at the onset of the substorm expansion phase. Dawn choruses occur more frequently during magnetic storms.

This phenomenon also occurs during aurorae, when it is termed an auroral chorus.

GREEN SEA : SEA-GREEN
     

                            
   Luster of Bluish-green sea waves is termed sea- green
        Raman Effect explains perfect special color as ever seen

       Turbulent waves are rolling, roaring with loud sound
        As if thunder bolts are striking down the grey cloud

          Mangroves with brown stems in tropical sea as coastal fence
           cluster around in deep dense bushes yielding wild essence

         Algae, red seaweed are farmed abundant in sea water
         Cook and eat the nutritious food in lunch and dinner

       Touch hard crust of white Ice berg floating on ocean
       Ocean is nothing else but the wide sea-extension
•	       *       *    *

       Wonderful bluish-green luster to glorify on sea glows to glorify,
       but loses intensity in horizon where sea meets the sky
        Sudden sea-storm rushed blowing whistling sound
       Clear sky turned grey with dust particles all around
      Brown algae floating on sea water spread weird smell.
      Swarm of tiny kreels are chased and  by large whale
      White sea-foams are bubbling on crest of waves in galore
      With gentle touch they fade away and thrashed on sea shore.

The Second Child

The newborn baby,The Second Child
In the Home which just turned four had arrived
and that girls life of three already there
didn't make her approve of 
His sudden appear.

Of how was the attention of whole round of busy crowd
at Him from  NO despair
And of how she felt Jealous and confused
of her mischiefs now termed as a rebellious dare.
How could she explain that things were not fair
to whom could she tell the latest tales and the
building fear.

The hands she wanted to return,
were busy carrying him.
What could she tell of
how it felt sitting far amongst the crowd 
and to touch him , she was last.
Inspite of that his introduction needed to be explained 
before anybody else,for Him to first let Her accept.

The explanations still had to be given
of if him she needed to protect at night.
The Scariness of darkness haunted her too
and her hands also fought for someone to hold up tight.

Of if the warmth of her love
She said He neede the most ,
Was it a decision to keep the girl
in the cold alone.

I am sure  He slept with no grief 
because 
He wasn't the One awaken from
The loud whistling wind and striking thunder storm.
And I am sure 
He didn't cry on the road while returning home
by looking at a friend taken to arms 
when in the Sun ,he was standing alone.

I surely could tell 
Mother , You couldn't make to both places
I feel that's why,
Priorities changed and 
somehow that  Girl became The Second Child.

Oh we

Oh we righteous striving to cease being sinners
Do we fight with the aim of being winners 
When the fight goes on and on
Seemingly a curse on every eon 
That to find earthly favor and treasure 
The upright endure labour and pressure 
Pressing with weariness and attrition 
Aiming to edge us out of culture and conviction 
Make hard the good and easy the evil
That the ungodly may be termed civil 

Sight is easy but faith is best
So shall the Christian enter into rest
The battle belongs to the Lord 
His Majesty and Might that we cannot afford 
Affords us to be still and know 
As He bolsters our faith and makes a public show 
For us and for those who ask “Where is your God?”
And so are we comforted by His staff and rod
That ye shall stand and witness His deliverance 
And the testimony always lace your utterance

The Redeemed

THE REDEEMED:

She didn't wish to promise herself,
Only to fall as a premeditative sinner.
If she could just be a neighbour's keeper,
She's considered to be a good woman.
She was just an innocent girl with a wounded heart.
Her virginity was broken like a tempered glass,
Causing her strength and self-esteem to fall flat.
Her goals and dreams were marred and dried.
Although she guaranteed herself with pride,
Because she wanted to become a professional, 
Whose dedication and service would be instrumental. 
But her plans were wrongfully alined,
After she became negatively sublimed.
Making her have a deep fall in deadly ditch,
Which can never be termed a good niche.

"The church girl is now a ghetto dweller.
The nice lady is now a sex worker.
The only child of that noble parents,
Is now a skeleton in a cupboard.
What exactly made me go wayward? "
As she kept questioning herself with falling tears.
It all started when she mingled herself With some obstinate peers,
With the intention not to imitate them,
But rather to help them come out of their fears.
They later crowned her as the smoking gem,
Since she became enthusiastic than them.
Fortunately, she's now a new soul,
Whose life is graciously yoked,
With the blood of the Holy Lamb and the Holy Spirit.
And she's now the professional she wished to be.
Hallelujah...She's saved!

Premium Member MOON

 
        Opaque opal white Moon showing pallid face at noon.  
        Nascent crescent descent Moon peeps at dusk reflecting reveries 
         Maroon Half-Moon rises arousing ripples of romance
       Clouds at platoon trying to put astral veil of mist.
       Giant gorgeous gibbous Moon glazes to enrapture night.
     Abloom Full Moon in spoon full charm makes lovers lunatic.
     Couple may be  hypnotized in gaudy glare.

     In respective orbital path on certain Full Moon Night,
      Sun-Moon in- between Earth, come in a line just right.
      Sun -Moon- Earth paired all together in perfect alignment,
       Lunar Eclipse will occur :
       Technical term 'SYZGY' has been set.

    Under thinner -most shadow of Earth, if Moon slips,
     Eclipse is known to be Pen Umbral,
     If partially shadowed, it's Partial Eclipse.
    Fully shadowed Eclipse is Total.
     
    Total Lunar Eclipse now being called Blood Moon
  as the Eclipsed  Moon is not dark or dull losing glamour,
    but exhibits rusty red hue glow looking boon.
    Sun spectrum through atmosphere displays reddish colour.

  Ensnared in eclipse Full Moon slips through shadow of Earth
    leaving behind sullen silhouette sunken in starry sky
   Blue Blood Moon in scarlet glow winks in frolic flare to mesmerize.
         
    Full Moon closest to Fall is termed ‘Harvest Moon’
   That’s the seasonal time to harvest.
    Next Full Moon the ‘Hunter’s Moon’ comes very soon.
    To go for hunting is the best.

    If the Harvest Moon shows Blood Moon at perigee,
   the closest position of Moon to Earth,
    One tenth larger and thirty percent brighter to see.
     Spectacular ‘Super Moon’ most worth.

      If consecutive four ‘Blood Moon’ appeared
       Rare occasions of lunar performance !
     The event is known as ‘Lunar Tetrad’.
      In between eclipse to come has no chance.

            Watching ‘Super Moon’ I felt lucky
           Then, have I gone lunatic? 
        Enjoying marvelous cosmos beauty,
         I feel  just romantic.
