Were stoic to hear they tied the knot

Like Atlantis lost in a portal of astonishment.

Mortals forever wandering on-wards lost in the mountains of existence....

 in hiding ...
May I never be
my counterpoint ...
that I don't die
before understand
all my astonishment ...
and that I don't live
those disenchantments ....!...

Life is the most glamorous song...
When he writes poetry
the astonishment grows... the truth,
brightness and harmony...
The whole life rejoices

so much beauty 
in this world 
that I must blink 
with astonishment
to hold back my tears.
If I could not blink 
I fear, sixty per cent 
of who I am, 
would leave me, 
in their abject eagerness 
to kiss the earth....

each pulse beauteous 
as we look on in astonishment 
at the renewal continuous 
bliss holding us in contentment 

all the doing is done
although we are not the doer
as ego comes undone
aligning with divine as the mover

At the moment I picked up ideas
they looked clear but they weren't
disappeared from my scope
well verses, no rhymes... nothing
, my work was useless
much to my astonishment...
poetry has its moment
It's a bird, a wandering lightning... !...

An Astonishment...
A Dispute between,
My mid and conscience

Yielding me to astray,
Annoyed my studies,
Twenrty-Four hours daily...

When?, Where? do myself retrieves,
Condemned as an introvert,
That Holds my prosperity?

GOD...Please Help Me!.....

Astonishment and wonderment
Childlike innocence attitude
Outpouring joy effervescent 
Astonishment and wonderment
It’s our soul’s native element 
Reflecting love’s beatitude 
Astonishment and wonderment
Childlike innocence attitude

spoilt for choice
we notice not
beauty in diversity
clinging instead to
narrow prejudice
signalling stupor

innocence beseeches us
to rekindle the reverberations
of astonishment and wonderment 
at play and in unending renewal
both in here and out there...

Miss Bellmont, you know the type,
expresses everything with hype.
At a gala party not long ago
her bra strap suddenly let go
as she danced the ballroom floor.
To the astonishment of all guests,
she described her falling breasts
as an avalanche on Mt. Rushmore....

our daily chant
we call prayer
is repetitive

we die a little more
slipping into stupor
on each immersion

where’s wonderment 
joyous astonishment 
of childlike innocence 

meld with the deity
in a fusion of hearts
nothing less will suffice

Volition steering attention
Our actions of doership
Let currents divine gain traction
Making love our flagship 

In childlike wonderment 
Each breath astonishment 
Imbibe the bliss current

Poor option
Volition

Nothing, nothing is vain until the fog has lifted 
I have been brave, whom did you love? 
I left her standing next to the morning originality 
Adrift in the country in mild astonishment 
Chanel paintings, magazine oils, and museums  
Recognize mundane hellos 
The pen and the writer...
