Premium MemberWithout Words Which May Displease

How then shall I show love for our sisterhood?
Our mother’s baby birthed on this joyous day
A festive time   with wishes  ‘happy’  and  good
No balloon  filled  room,  cake,  gifts on display
Belief systems stand first  it’s well understood
So, in all due respect and come what may                                                                                                                 
Just poetry  for YOU  showing how I care
Without words which may displease God, I share

Without salutary words which may offend 
In toughest of times with me you’ve always been
Soulful eyes  I’d run to,  my hurt you’d suspend
One hundred, forty four thousand for heaven
My selfless sister shall   be one in the end
Devotion  has  earned a  palatial inn
Forever dwelling on a pure restored  earth
A poem for you this day mother gave birth

Premium MemberSpirit of December


When December stills souls with its quiver,
Erasing shadows who make life bitter.
Warm hearths silence the heart’s crispy shiver,
Stardust blesses with joy like soft glitter,
Wonders who December will deliver.
Frost’s quickening is no counterfeiter.
Where Winter hastens are soft glowing skies.
Home to cardinals praising with their cries.

When December whispers on graying nights,
Promising its secrets shall grow inside,
Where the soul will remember sweet insights,
Gentle lights unfading can’t be denied.
Singing to lithe Autumn – her last rites.
Writing poetry of faith who’ll abide.
In a sweet voice, her splendor will remind…
December welcomes peace who can spellbind.

When December stirs the moon to glowing,
Stars play across the night, dazzling desires,
Leaving the heart with love overflowing,
Twilight drifts across dreams, troubling wildfires
Calming words of hope from an all knowing,
He cast the stars on skies, never tiring,
December brings Christmas, the birth of love,
Sent to our spirits from heaven above!

”Doing nothing follow love’s intimate scent ~ 
Unwrap life slowly, like a birthday present”
            ~ quote by poet


To have x-ray vision, piercing veil of time,
may not be a boon, since it stifles surprise,
dulling the magic of innocent heart’s chime
and of joyous rapture on the upward rise.
Living in the now, as we heavenward climb,
allows God’s blessing and mercy to baptise
our soul in whose luminescence we delight,
knowing not beforehand, hues of aura bright.

Rhyming Verse

R-hyming verse written
A-nd poetry spoken have let
Y-our heart and soul open,
N-ot minding the woes and fret,
A-s the wide blue heaven
L-ets not your memory forget,
Y-our both eyes have read first
N-othing but the rhyming verse.

Rays of the Beacon

R-ays of the beacon delight 
E-agerly your heart and mind; 
Y-our eyes see no twilight, 
N-ight is just left behind. 
A-s the sun sets things aright, 
L-ight above guides the blind; 
D-awn breaks at the horizon 
O-f the rays of the beacon.

D-awn breaks at the horizon 
O-f the rays of the beacon.

Personal Experience

P-ersonal experience teaches, 
R-eminding one of past error; 
E-very wrong turns into success, 
C-orrecting the fault with ardor.
I-n search of particular progress, 
O-ne learns lesson with vigor; 
U-sing the practical difference, 
S-eeking cue from personal experience.

Just Clear Your Eyes

J-ust clear your eyes and smile, 
O-pen your heart to million mirth; 
S-top crying and view for a while 
E-very wonder of lovely earth. 
F-ly high and go the extra mile, 
I-t's the sky you see since your birth; 
N-ever miss the vivid sunrise, 
A-s you just clear your eyes.

Hear the Voice

H-ear the voice of the Almighty
O-nce He speaks His command; 
N-ever ignore the Lord's glory, 
E-agerly learn to understand.
Y-our life shall be strife-free, 
L-iving in God's helping hand; 
Y-ou really have no choice, 
N-othing but hear the voice.

Name In Ottava Rima

N-ame in Ottava Rima form 
I-s also in Acrostic style; 
C-ombination is truly warm, 
O-pening the eyes to smile. 
L-ovely lines make no harm, 
L-etters are not obnoxious or vile; 
A-nother word that brings euphoria 
I-s the name in Ottava Rima.

Joyful Heart

J-oyful heart beats in harmony, 
E-ven though it feels the pain; 
M-inding not the saddest agony, 
E-very dark cloud and rain.
L-onely tears turn into glee, 
I-nclement clime doesn't remain; 
T-he happy days always start, 
A-s you possess a joyful heart.

Moon and Sun

M-oon and sun both glow
I-n opposite time of the day; 
C-omforting the forlorn sorrow, 
H-aving brightened the gray.
E-ach sea tide gets high or low, 
L-ight and warmth always stay; 
L-ife's satellites won't be gone, 
E-njoy the glint of moon and sun.

Dry Season

D-ry season is just aroundthe corner, 
O-bliterating the wet clime; 
R-ainy days are about over, 
V-ile weather turns into summertime.
E-arly light leaves the winter, 
L-ovely dawn becomes more sublime; 
Y-our eyes see the rising beacon, 
N-ew morn smiles at dry season.

Joy From Poetry

J-oy from poetry is given, 
O-nce the message is known; 
A-llowing your mind to open, 
N-ot letting your soul be alone. 
A-ll the words that are written 
L-ive in the comfort zone; 
Y-our heart receives in glee 
N-othing but joy from poetry.

Child of Nature

C-hild of nature prefers forest, 
H-aving vigor to climb the mountain; 
R-efreshed and replenished, 
I-f she drinks from the fountain.
S-he loves to soar high in zest
T-oward the wide blue heaven; 
E-levating her life to a venture, 
L-iking to be child of nature.
