Nepal Poems

Nepal

Nepal
Nepal I know little of this country, nestling
Among colossal mountains
It used to be a kingdom, but the king was so
Autocratic that he lost the job.
Later on, I have this from memory, one of the princes
Shot the royal family as they were sitting down for tea.
This didn`t help him to become a king,
I think he is

Premium MemberHimalayan High

She found a job near Annapurna and when she trekked around a turn
It was like walking into a wall of beauty, awesome like a burn
It sometimes stopped her cold; this display words could not surpass:  
Alpenglow on distant peaks, flags on a mountain pass.

Her ancestors lived by Polish rivers, but none were like Dudh

Alone in the earth

In this vast expanse of blue and green,
I stand, 
alone,
not a soul to echo my thoughts against,
nor a shadow to mingle with mine under the sun.

Here, where the earth stretches infinitely,
where the sky kisses the horizon with a lover's tender sigh,
I find myself an island in a sea of space,
solitude my only companion.

I wander through

Culture of Nepal

Amidst the peaks of the Himalayas,
Lies a land of culture and beliefs,
A world that's rich and diverse,
Where ancient traditions still breathe.

Nepal, a land of many hues,
Where harmony and unity reside,
Where diverse cultures come together,
And a vibrant tapestry is tied.

In the valleys and on the hills,
The people of Nepal call out,
With songs and dances, and temple

The Only Way: a Love Poem Inspired

I only love to love you, oh my heart,
From the very start, it's been this way,
With each beat, I feel the spark,
And I know my love is here to stay.

Your smile, your touch, your gentle voice,
Are the reasons I wake up every day,
My heart sings, I have no choice,
For your love is the only way.

Beyond the Veil: Grieving the Death of a Loved One

The body lies still, no breath to take,
A loved one's gone, a heart does break,
But where does the essence of the soul go,
Beyond this life, do we truly know?

Do we grieve for the body, now at rest,
Or for the spirit, forever blessed,
Released from the bounds of earthly pain,
Free to roam, to love again?

If we could

The Art of Baking

I measure out the flour and yeast,
And knead the dough until it's creased,
I add some sugar, salt, and butter,
And let the mixture rest to flutter.

The oven preheats, my hands are set,
I shape the dough with no regret,
Into a loaf, a roll, or bun,
My expert hands get the job done.

The aroma fills the room with bliss,
And

Virelai: the Beauty of Nature

Amidst the woods, the rustling leaves,
The soothing sound, a soul receives,
Inhale the scents of nature's bloom,
A healing balm that lifts the gloom,
Nature's beauty, a sight to see,
It fills the heart with harmony,
With each step taken on the sod,
A peaceful calm, it brings to God.

The waves that crash upon the shore,
A symphony that I adore,
The salty

My Baby

Pay attention to the complete charge,
the complete charge is the most extra impute of all.
Criminal, complete charge.
Down, down, down into the darkness of the complete charge,
Gently it goes - the unscheduled, the duplicate, the surplus.

I saw the the brown containerful of my generation destroyed,
How I mourned the brown bottle.
Now chromatic is just the thing,
To get

Honey

I saw the the unshelled seedpod of my generation destroyed,
How I mourned the peanut.
Does the peanut make you shiver?
does it?

I saw the the lemon edulcorate of my generation destroyed,
How I mourned the sugar.
Does the sugar make you shiver?
does it?

When I think of the sweetness, I see delicate words.
Now old is just the thing,
To get me

Without presence of

Give me freedom to survive......

Shopping In the Clouds

You’ve walked those streets a thousand times and still
                      You end up here. Regret none of it –Dorianne Laux

     Those streets are now narrow ones that wind into each other

Premium MemberNepal's Daughters Isolation Huts

Asphyxiated and found dead
Raped and found dead
Unsure what happened, and found dead
Nepali women found dead

Snake bitten and found dead
Eaten by tigers and found dead
Left in a small dark menstrual hut 
And found dead

Nepali women found dead
Shunned and labelled unclean
Ostracized for the wonderful way
God has insured they can have babies

Asphyxiated, raped, snaked, and frozen
And found dead.

A Woman

A woman is strong.
She is loving and wise.

She endures,
She moves hearts,
She laughs and she cries.

She nurtures,
She commends,
She supports and she mends.

All for the sake of her children and friends.

A woman does all this,
And yet,
She suffers the dreaded menstruation.

In modern countries,
She can go to the store and buy things like tampons,
Tampons and pads.
Then she'll be on
