For you a message does await
Designed to determine your fate.
Expedition,
Of new tradition;
Recognizing God is always great.

By horse-cart when Santa Claus rode,
Through our untarred yoyo village road,
Axis like a dough disc,
Broke; Santa was at risk;
Lo! His expedition got slowed...!

expiring experienced excited and enticed enthusiastic emus
extracted exact experimental explosives from exfoliated flues
exasperating exam-free extraterrestrial expedition views
extraordinary x-rayed exclamations exuding as clues....

The expedition of fine love
Is always rewarded with wine
Never to be overwhelmed
Cautioned to bitter
But its outcome is sweet
For in a heart shelters
The dew of a tear
Carried for mercy
Showed for comfort
But in all this we miss
A step and the wine is left spilled...

SOLE EXPEDITION

Night falls,
Thought calls,
Staring walls
like blinking dolls,
Fixed eyeballs,
Frameless vision
but ageless mission;
Motionless, lolls,
Progress annuls,
Full empty halls,
Alone & stuck
to walk
the solitary walk.

They were Meriwether Lewis and William Clark,
Her name was Sacagawea.
On an expedition they did embark
Finding the passage to the sea.

Down the Missouri they traveled, 
Then slithered 'round the Snake River bend.
Rocky Mountain weather and sickness battled;
At the Columbia River they'd end.

My Autumn`s dream

I seek comfort and passion
which flow like white honey from heaven
months I`ve prepared for this great expedition
I seek comfort and passion
~this cosy fall,my heart tinge with full expectation
unlimited love abound without restriction
I seek comfort and passion
which flow like white honey from heaven....

W-e go on a safari 
I-n the wild place on earth; 
L-et the equipment and caravan 
L-ead us to a million mirth. 
I-f we go on a safari, 
A-ll we have to do is prepare; 
M-ake a good expedition of each and every hunter. 

S-un starts to rise once more, 
O-n the twenty-first of February; 
L-ight has begun to show, 
I-t's time to go on a 
S-afari....

Part man part creature this spirit, fallen, from her skies..
Nineteen fifty-nine an expedition discovering His child floating
Gallantly down Love's reinish river ? Wrapped in a cloth of many colours
Black pearl eyes gazing past her wickers wedge; by and by beloved, their baby....
Mixed metaphors prodigical doors; chromosomes xxyz ? Part man part creature; Spirits....

A garden beneath the soaring sunrise-
Somewhere in nowhere
Lingers on~ in no-mans' land
A Majestic and glamorous scene-
A master piece with a picture green-
Landmarked with meadows within that nowhere-
Watered with blue waters perfumed in streams of gold.
Inconspicuous on a mystical terrain-
Lying hidden from the curious men
That explorers, wouldn't rather refrain....

There was that bloke: 
That war poet?
Rupert Brooke
He apparently said; and I quote

I suddenly realised that 
The 
Ambition of my life has 
Been - since I was two - to go on a military expedition 
Against the Turks

That's a bit much, isn't it?
Like a cup of
Oniony tea

I will beat Thomas 

And if you got into a car
The instructor wouldn't
Say 
To you, "Well
What do YOU think?"...

If you want to sign up for the Jupiter mission
Here is the catch: you have to be serious.
And you have to have $100,000 you are willing to lose
Because if the space ship blows up,
Or if the expedition is cancelled,
Of if the sponsor takes the money,
There are no refunds.
Only two people signed up.
A mother and son.
Who could not read the small print
Where all of this stupidity was printed....

With a spark to get the goal,
I set myself ablaze.

Discoverers are rovers,
Misread as directionless.

Trendsetters are drifters,
Misinterpreted as irresolute.

Innovators are venturers,
Misconstrued as frivolous .

What a falsified perception about me,
Of being an aimless wanderer,
Like a toy car striking wall and moving wayward.

I am on my way to my expedition,
With a zeal of reconnaissance ,
Voyager I am !!...

My eyes are my spears
in bushes of opportunities
they lead me with confidence
but it is only good scenery
and plateful of edibles I get
I do eat with my hungry eyes
my hands are too short
and legs not fast enough
to identify and catch real games
every hunting expedition
with empty hands I return
but with satisfied eyes
that mean nothing to my life
in this land of opportunities
that belong to me not...

No plot of ground to serve a bed
Against the dark you lay your head
For expedition much abused
Contemptable in your afteruse

Defiled by Adam's selfishness
Your face unrecognizable
A mute remains of ravishment
To world unreconcilable

A dying bird with broken wings
Your fate lies with unloved things
Too weak to cry out heavenward
You close your eyes from pain!

(Be exalted Lord, who designed this bard
To refrain from all things sane)...

You should never be afraid of your dreams...
Just because you can not see the rainbow, majority of the time 
things are not what they seem.
Follow your passion & alleviate the doubt.
For every expedition there's a reward at the end of the route.
Find your purpose & pursue it with vigor.
And threw the storms stand strong, don't blink, & don't wither!
Be the impetus that God has created you to be.
Let God's will be done & you shall find your destiny!...

Sanmati, my source, is completely mine
As she never missed going to shrine.
Nor does she move slowly like a bovine.
Much was done to munch through byline
Against me or her to bypass or to confine.
Thanks to expedition that made her whine
Inner talents, flairs, bents and gifts fine.
Jain are we: active is she; before deadline
All her work is complete – quality divine.
Illegitimacy! Come thou and pour wine
Near those who still soar for heavenly design....

The commanding officer with forceful strode
Beleaguered by the blizzard, nonstop we rode
In the sweeping expedition within deserts
Heavy masses on our back with an extraordinary load
Once an unyielding fortitude, now walking on with backs bowed
Reasoning with intellects bearing
Casting nuisance in a foreign tongue, sheep’s following the goad
Plead with the omnipotence to forgive their malicious seeds sowed
Looking up to the 7th heaven, screening the supremacy of Karma....

Tardigrade in the Miniverse

Have you ever seen a Tardigrade?
I doubt it, they’re microscopically small.
Described as Moss Piglets or Water Bears,
Shortish and plump, certainly not tall.

They wouldn’t make very good pets,
But do look kind of cute under a ‘scope.
Mountains to Oceans, even in Space,
Extremist survivors able to cope.

Have you ever seen a Tardigrade?
An expedition on a miniscule crusade.

Initially you were fragrance
Wind used to give me your address
Then you became a name
Streets were known by your footsteps
Then you became eyes
It penetrated my days so badly,
That I had to bury my time
Then…you became a face…and then breasts…
And this expedition cost me my innocence

And before I could have find a trail
A dense jungle swallowed me.

Now you become, home of a naked tribal man
And whenever people shout your name
I become aware of my nakedness....

THE NEW YEAR – LIFE RACE


A  NEW RACE BEGAN  

AT THE STROKE OF TWELEVE

ALL HEARTS WERE AT   HOPE

THINKING THE FORTUNES AND WOES

SOME ARE PRUDENT SOME ARE WOOLY

SOME ARE EASE SOME ARE RUFFLED

THE FIRST EVENT OF THE YEAR


FEW STARTED GRADUALLY

OTHERS ENTHUSED RAPIDLY

EVERYONE WAS EXPLORING

THE KNOWN AND UNKNOWN WORLD

IT’S A LONG GROUNDING

FOR A SHORT EXPEDITION.

When I was eighteen
I entered her virgin land
She absorbed me with esteem
But there was no success at hand

I struggled to raise my head up
To sail above the obstacles
To keep the mantle up
From the unknown expected miracles

Success distanced herself
From the vicinity of the humble
Food, rest, pleasure I rejected myself
Determined and prepared for the rumble

The rumble for greatness
To stand out among equals
To lead a life of happiness
When the expedition is over...

How can I define to you in a rhyme
My pain, melodically, acquired with time
How can I make anyone feel what I feel
When all I know are lies, nothing is real
Let me bring you down with me
As we walk through the fires, tell me what you see
Let me throw you to the loins blindfolded
Stand your ground and see how long you can hold it
Give me 18 years to destroy your worth
I’ll be in your brain til you regret your birth
Only when you have to hide like I hid
Will you know the pain that I did...

An expedition began years ago,
Devoid of a significant Destination,
Christened LIFE.

Making headway, 
Encircled by plenteous acquaintances,
“EXPERIENCE” is the upshot.

Progressing ahead,
Corollary of capability,
Precise judgmental ability
Is the effect of “Experience”

Cautious progression,
In profession and personality;
Sensible Relationships,
Overlooking the covetous,
Dedicated and ingenuous,
Undoubtedly a boulevard to “SUCCESS”

Is this really what we call “LIFE”?...
