Skies are cruel
Buffet white clouds accrued
Crossing rolling by
Royal premises shy
A holy dissension
Regal skies blue
Now the darken white dew
Storms clouds picturizes
Sadden by the hues, so polarized
Before the storm
Sets in blows
midst the white blanketed clouds
A show
Look over there a
…blue hole.

Honorable Mention Placement in Contest
For Blue Hole Poetry Contest

October is the season of fall
Everything from tree does fall
Solitary it stands calm and tall
Epitomizes highest goal of all
Bare tree represents state of liberation
No procession, thoughts, feelings
Mental stillness, no earthly dealings
Happily witnessing soul salvation
October picturizes death and life
All born will die it does say
Only to be reborn another day
Transient is everything in life
Don't be attached it clearly does lay
Practice equanimity in dualities of life
Hold on to hope in all your strife
Keep faith steady, don't let mind sway
Eternal soul is your real entity
You should not bother about triviality
About world you should maintain neutrality
And try to realise your soul, your actuality,
