Long Unreached Poems

A tale told by trees, rooted
in the things that yearn
far from sight and light of day
deep within the earth…
Wisdom, cautious, heeds -
woe befalls one who disturbs
a tale told by trees.

Long ere innocence was lost,
drinking deep...

When the first humans walked the earth,
They all huddled in droves,
Hooted and cried to warn of dangers,
Lurking in the mangrove,

Loud voices and echoes, conveyed a return,
Along with a large kill,
A lone unreached tenor, to a...

We owe it to our doctors… 
The ones who took it to be part of Sun Pharma’s greater mission;
 
To prevent disease rather cure
Cure and control if that happens at all;

Hell is a place of eternal torture
With restlessness’ angst and despair-puncture
Sealing the faithless in their doomed future
Midst cruel hatred’s defiant gesture.

Hell is a prison of endless darkness
Where misery’s gloom prevails in blackness
Due to sufferings, despair,...

Hear my plea… consider truth’s earnestness
Bringing to your ear this factual soundness:
I’m Hell --- a prison of endless darkness
Where misery’s gloom prevails in blackness
Due to sufferings, despair, hopelessness
Leaving the guilty in their sins’ fierceness.

	God’s enduring gift enveloping my salvation-scope
		Securely tied around His blessed eternal life’s rope…

A
beetle
contemplates
death- with babies,
each one, him reborn.
Fortunately, love's peace,
gives no yearning or felt angst.
Hell arrives, in a spray can's mist.
Instant genocide, heaven's unreached. 

Jury is out. Are we thought, chosen ones?   
Knowledge born, burdensome...

The patina of dew dazzled on my drenched meadow,
charismatic crystals crowning the convergent verdance
sprinkled your essence in million sparkles of motif,
a tapestry I had spread on the precinct of my heart.

I thought that was what...

Is there a permanence to the meaning of the word ‘greatness’?
Whatever does it mean ‘to be great’ or ‘to feel great’?

May brings desert winds giving a warm Spring when least you expect it...
 Unknown to the letter,
 unreached like pictures

 Suddenly rising up, uncalled,
 Yet pressing on horizons, never defined,
 moving beyond rainbows,
 Pillars...

The cascading stream leaping in swirling ebullience
Through dancing shadows of swaying trees entranced
The spectral dew drops draping the glinting grass tips
Weave lattice of splendor on the meadow bejeweled

It comes again—like a familiar rhyme—
The sweet and tender sense of bygone days
Like this; a promise kept that all will be
All right for friends and family, and me.

I drive alone down misty roads
where the morning’s frost still lingers
on the earth, grass, leaves unreached
by the feeble winter sun 
whose fingers slowly withdraw
into the white blankness
of unmoving air.

The road bends as it climbs between

trapped in unseen cages with unreached goals, 
unravelled deep from heart, played with flair,
their melodies are set free in air, 
rebound from stony walls, flow down streams,
ripple emotions,...

that lingers in her broken heart 
trying to find what was 
and what is now

she sips memories and lives

to write the distinctive story of my...
