A tumultuous time came unushered in my beleaguered life that writhed in the crushing clutch of destructive agony. My heart broke, bled with desperation in pining pain, found no arms stretched to be embraced by solace. At the edge of hope as the helpless mind sorely got the unmistakable signal of the beginning of the end, it surrendered to...

Assuming there are more brilliant ways, That our life takes twists and turns like a maze, Yet do we have influence over unforeseen plans, For our future and the way it evolves and spans ? I believe that our...

He stood, arms, legs, outstretched, seemingly biding in that lambent light against, darkening grey where summer heat and storm are oft colliding; in some time, the rain will come, yet not today. Ancient dust will settle on his naked breast slowly bake between the Sun and human sweat; as his shadow slowly shifts from East to West he knows, again, his payers...

The young are prone to blithely say, “Time’s on my side,” but youth’s no promise one will long on Earth abide. “He died too soon,” we say beside a young one’s grave and ponder why God opted not his life to save. Those who have not achieved all they desire in life sometimes blame others~~even God~~for pain and strife. Let’s flip...

My mind shudders at the memory of a dark day in my life when our son, a late boon into our arid life- (the one born to us after twelve years of long waiting,) was admitted in the ICU, almost lifeless after an accident when he was just four. After being dropped by the school...

My dependence on walking cane, makes me older than my 80++ age, I wish I could walk more than sit for hours, Enjoy the walk along the ocean shore and greet the waves. I would love to be an active adult, Dance in the parties, swing few shots at pickleball game. The time of Providence...

Did I ever know that I would be born? Did I decide my psyche and physique? Why is a rose shielded by a sharp thorn? Providence creates each creature unique. I think of building a castle for me. I end up assembling a thatched hut. When I, like a sparrow, wish to be free An unknown force, from within, keeps me shut. Untimely...

Oh, come, gather up close to hear my story. Of how ancient navigators crossed the sea to glory. Going between Pacific islands with fantastic skill, Using Providence to guide with nature's goodwill. “It’s chance—they will never find their way." “No compass drawn, no map to mark the day.” “They drifted and then caught some lucky breeze." "They stumbled blindly, blown...

There will surely be a guide ~ charting my path, protecting, and leading me to my destined destination in life. As if it were a promised payment God made to me from heaven. A visible hand tucked out from an invisible tucker, In a canoe on a river ~ gently rowing me along its flow. Many near-deaths averted, Many of life's debts miraculously paid, many...
