Life is a dreamers dream
That never returns
But never ceases
It shows no avail to who ever caress it
Never ending tears and never ending sorrows
Fill my mind once more…...

cajoled by love divine sublime
our soul ascends in timeless time
why fret when we are in a dream
delighting in images that stream
hark, oh hermit, to our hearts chime

FOR ME
I thank you for everything you have done for me
Life oscillates around our dream oh thee
Don't you know "To be or not to be"
Nothing we can do nothing we can see

Let the Soul weep as it bleeds
Learn the hard lessons in life
Through the misery and pain
Death never ceases to creep
So never let the heart cease
It's chaotic beat for she 
Life is but a DREAM!!

Life is a long dream,
days, years and centuries
walk to infinity,
deep well...
Living without any uncertainty,
is a course that lasts a lifetime,
and the promise of learning
doesn't make us pull a rabbit out of a hat... !...

Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream,
Merrily,merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream.

Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream,
Oh,my goodness, the stream got rough, 
To get to shore,it's going to be tough....

I know not of life,
         for my life is as a dream.
         And my dreams are as my reality.
         And my reality is that of a greater man.
         A man who cannot be,
         who exists not,
         But in my dreams....

an event precipitates
all options seem to lose
in as contracting heart’s joy
as yet immersed in the transient

our soul rests in the vibrant void
witnessing the ebb and flow
nonchalant to outcomes 
for life is but a dream

How the years have hurried by this century
 so many wild enticing adventures aplenty,
heroes and heroines succumbing 
 to every hope and dream forthcoming
even these senior years are not defeated
 still breathing life to make the dream completed....

Sit
So still,
Wait for her,
And close your eyes.
This dream feels so real,
It's so hard to know why,
You can not here my whispers,
You can not reach me inside here.
I will sit and wait and close my eyes,
I will dream of you until you wake me....

that life but a play

spurred by desire

Will you follow your dreams
Or will just dreams they remain?
Will you stay an ‘as well as’,
Or make something of your name?

Will you stay tethered to the ground
Or will you learn how to fly?
Will you hide in the dark wood
Or will you soar up to the sky?...

I am in a dream,
A dream of going to witness
To a place in my next life.

What I have been hearing,
 A dream of going 
 To an everlasting home of good things.

And the dream is
Of going to the wonderful
House of peace,good and love.
This is the paradise....

Life is but a dream, while rowing down the stream
 Better to flow along in life’s mystery, some call it destiny
 The present is a gift, if you catch my drift
 Watch your flanks, as life & death are your banks
 ‘Cause your reserves are vested in your life preserve’s...

Lament not, oh worthy lama
This life is but a dream
Live in joy, free from fear stigma 
Things are not what they seem

Childlike, given to play
To rhythm divine sway
Keeping ego at bay

Be self-taught
Lament not

Why can't I enter Nirvana 
in one fell swoop
'cause that's what I wanna
to end this endless loop.
Old deeds done--new lessons learned
pre Karma lost---post Karma earned
all things positive--all negatives spurned.
row row row your boat--------------------
Life is but a Dream...
