Short Befriending Poems

The moon shines brightly
Forever in the night sky
Befriending the stars and sky....

You hate me a lot
Yet I do respect and love
You like, love or not
I have not learnt how to hate
Befriending I have only learnt....

Beware! 
Because befriending beasts
Besets bad boys.
Being bad beguiles beautiful brides
But being bold bedevils bimbos
Brave bigots beseeches beliefs
But being a barging bard is being brief...

Not welcoming death
but befriending its shadow
whose blanket I wear
in this carrying wind

The brother to life
who spawned all existence
his eyes are my wings
—flying into the night

Child feels so drawn,
Liking, befriending.

Preteen feeling so innocently,
Crushing, admiring.

Adolescent feelings of promiscuity,
Attraction, infatuation.

Adult feeling of committing,
Loving, dating.

Soul feelings of destiny,
Promising, marrying....

We 
So
In like
Befriending
Nurture encourage
Bonding midst the frequent God loving kindness and witness
Being friend whom sticks closer than any other even a brother Alleluia

having accepted limitation
owing to relying on the ego
as we so choose, so it is
thus believing we are form
we live life in deep trance

how then may we escape
when we are both the all 
as also this earth entity
how else oh worthy hermit
but by befriending silence...

Why oh why won't they just leave me be
Sleep is my only release
& even that's been shy these days
It's steady & constant; non-stop noise
Never is my mind at ease
Drowning then out works to no avail
Arguing with them seems to make matters worse
Tried befriending them, but they always disagree...

The Art
The bugle of the sun
The guitar of the moon
Blending in the dreams
Befriending the hemoglobin
The Art
The filigree of the sweetheart
The tickling by the word craft

Winds allay into an easing breeze
Befriending with earlies eve

This soothing shade
That mends the healing soul,
The light of darkness
A childs un-crying

To all the astray and unattended,
To all the guarded and befriended,
A gesture is given;
Not unlike the softness
Within the evenings breeze...

Beyond despair
new light is found
where wasted moments
live again
Befriending capsules
lost to time
the air forgiving
free of sin
Beyond all hope
there lies a wish
where cherubs promise
saving grace
And hopes and wishes
are reborn
as memory resets
—love embraced

In the midst of
nothingness,
Searching through
darkness,
Embracing
loneliness,
Comprehending
vagueness,

Befriending
uncertainties,
Playing with
vulnerabilities,
Absorbing
obscurities,
Appreciating
difficulties,

Drudging
malfunctions,
Living with
illusions,
Addicted to
intrusions,
Slave of
temptations,...

as we dissolve in the now continuum
a sublime ethereal divine fragrance 
engulfs our consciousness like a mist

the source is not out there but in here
in gratitude stuporous presence savours
the subtle bliss inducing beauteous elixir 

there’s nothing to be done saving being
befriending stillness and thus becoming

I grew up way before my time
Taking on motherly duties as if these kids are mine
Helping Grandma out when papa died
Helping Aunties smile when they feel down
Talking to uncles every now and then
Befriending sisters 'cause
Fathers not around

But through all my learning they never 
Taught me how
To Be A Teen 
Someone help me please........

How still is our stillness if thought forms arise,
each flicker having origins in ego,
a flaming ember, which never ever dies,
unless we’re empty and completely let go,
which if be the case, befriending the vast void,
we shine as light of Self, pure and unalloyed,
whereupon the universe bestows a verse,
conjured thus without any need to rehearse?...

Jabberwock, oh jabberwock, how misunderstood you are
Fierce men come by to steal your head, but only leave a scar.

you yearn not for blood, but love I think,
a scratch beneath your chin.

But when men arrive with swords
you fight them on a whim.

Ignorant they are, dear wocky, scaly beast,
can't blame you now, my jabby friend, for making them your feast....

Trek poles wending
Peak ascending
Trail keeps bending
Effort spending
Gnats offending

Stormclouds rending
Cool rain sending
Flowers tending
Clean air lending
Sunshine trending

Now descending
Hikers blending
Smiles attending
All befriending
Hike soon ending

Sleep descending
Sweet dreams sending
Muscles mending
Smiles unending
Next hike? Pending!...

Love Guru

I wanna be a love guru
Clothed in white
Chemical free
empowered by endless possibilities
In a limitless sky
Exiling mortality
With its ugly realities

Yeah love guru
Creating my own truths
Walking disguised as youth
unlocking age old wisdom
Befriending the universe

Always smiling 
Spinning in a pink panther-ed swivel chair
Bare feet
Flowing kinky hair
Halo of innocence...

There are so many paths that we’re spoilt for choice,
each religion claiming it alone is true,
yet all admit that love’s the pulse of God’s voice,
so shifting from head to heart, blessings accrue.
Let’s keep it simple hermit, why complicate,
for if we truly wish to reach heaven’s gate,
befriending silence, lets plunge into the void,
that thus invoking grace, delusion’s destroyed....

Emptiness
Is eating me
The evil
Is seeing me
Everything i am
Is nothing i am
Am i beating it?
Or is it beating me...?
To live, is to win.
And death is for dead
But living like this
Be not for the victor,
The ultimate dread.
Am i living a lie,
Or is it living me?
No friends ahead
Best friends to the end.
Befriending the darkness
Bitter and red
My friend is the blackest
My hearts gone, but dead....

he stood and watched
while our self esteem dropped
and we started following the rules of the white man

befriending the yellow man
didn't do us any good either
the smartest amongst us sit,study and calculate
get the nation ready
for a time when the tables will turn

our little ones are ignorant to our cause
because they have been watching too much tv
i call upon all my kinsmen
my dark skin can't take this....

Our rainbow body, in heart is concealed,
covered by layers of fear, hate and lust
but when we’re by love healed, truth is revealed,
here and now within this form made of dust,
whence we walk mindfully, upon earth’s crust.
Befriending silence, dwelling in the void,
delusion of lower mind is destroyed,
paving way for our form to be transformed,
revealing soul’s light, pure and unalloyed;
rainbow in full view, as scriptures informed....

there was a young lad name of squee
whose friend was a teddy named shmee
his neighbor crazy
his mother was hazy
his father just hated that squee

there was a man named jhonny c.
who went on a murderous spree
he often spoke scary
and felt he should carry
the burden of befriending squee

zim is an "invader" from irk
whose completely obsessed with his work
he also is crazy
his robot is CRAZY
i'm happy it's back on t.v.

please don't sue me...

I have it all here,
Yet it's you want I near.
My heart still believes
You to be a dear part of me.

What more do I need,
When I already have
Everything indeed?

I have a dream,
Yet something that first should be
Redeemed would be
My generosity and honesty.

Bringeth me renewed feeling
You have done through
Your deed of befriending me.

I have it all already,
Though truly you are everything
I have searched for,
For what seems to be an eternity....

The evening fresh, 
stars allure, 
birthed- ground-breaking. 

To look back, seems feeble
forward, Vigorous.

It is almost too late, 
I have hollowed a place
for each hope I carried, 
trickery twisted imagination. 

The sky littered, 
calling...all visions to death, 
each cup of soil, 
warmth
befriending faith with roses
daisies, 
as I walk away, 
nurtured.

There are no more stones-
upon stones, 
upon stones, 
only hours perhaps, 
devoted....
