it is a cold winter day
we soak in the warm sunlight
a gentle breeze is blowing
everything seems just right
such simple pleasures of life
are bestowed as of God's will
we are but a humble receptor
sipping soma nectar to our fill
we feel no urge to act upon
an agenda our memory recalls
if ordained we will do as asked
even as wayward ego falls
God rows the boat in which we are
wherein we exist as a mist
our presence is soaked in delight
being by Divine Mother kissed

Savouring Solitude
So savouring solitude soothes one’s soul
Subjectively silencing self-control
Supplantingly supplement’s skewed etude
Encompassing—entire—every tableau
Replenishing revalue rue’s the day
In wilderness winnowing’s watered way
Such savouring...solitude soothes one’s soul.

SAVOURING SOLITUDE
Verdant valley in solitary place
Devoid of public, people, populace.
Noiseless Noon: Scorching sizzling Sun to face.
Thirsty eagles quenching quietude.
Shy sunflowers sway, savour solitude.
Symphony of Noon in serenity.
Tuned twined tempted to tranquility.

Form: Alliteration
Surrendering so sweetly to silent
energies ending enduring embrace.
Sojourning into such solace for peace
where wondrous essences regally reign
relaxing the recesses of the brain.
Regenerating from an aloneness
into inner worlds of our own oneness.

Soma nectar soothing, suffusing form
Scintillating currents swathe us in swarms
No name assigned, nomad knowing nature
Negating nothing, neophyte mature
Benign searing bliss spike, softens stature
Vaporised self, seeks but God in silence
Ignition illumining innocence
