Short Internalizing Poems

The end of an era is near,
Collapsing like a falling bottle of beer
Sterilizing, internalizing the drunken horde
Never again shall there be a day like it
As the waves crash we near its shores
One front in front of the other
The land feels different
More stable
Silence beckons as seagulls flock in form
End of shores...

INDIA 2014.

Inclusive and internalizing for ages
New-tech-nation of  Nirvana-seeking sages
Democratic but mired in dissent that rages.
Integrity its new ‘mantra’; equality
And liberty , watchwords , along with amity.

Inheriting a great heritage from a hoary past
Grabbing   modernity’s gifts, it is  growing fast.

I can. I do. I will. I am.
I repeat this.
Just try! Someone yells.
Trying never works, I argue.
I can. I do. I will. I am.
Internalizing things always works.
Even if you fail….
Failing is not in my vocabulary I argue.
I can successfully do or I can successfully realize it is not for me.
Trying is a word I refuse to acknowledge.
Trying and I can’t.
Two things I never say.
I can. I do. I will. I am.
Confidence alive and well here....

Ever winding, ever circling

Flow to the centre and back again

The ripples create their own world

Internalizing your pain

Remembering a Lover

Moments within seconds


Centering  down.... Slowing my breath

Spirit touches spirit

The softness of your lips

Sensation of your tight embrace

Faint memory of your sweeter scent


Ever winding


Ever circling.......flow to the centre and


Back 

             Again..................
