Short Morrows Poems

flowers of Spring,
blossom and die;
beauty of youth,
lost in a sigh;
yesterday's dreams,
waving goodbye;
today remains..
'morrows to be...

Two brothers of stature and wit
A business to start, they'd commit.
The desire for fame
Was in their last name
Now Two-Morrows a work in profit!...

we are
        moving
together
       side
         by
            side
onwards
upwards,
our future
         awaits,
one with the other
into
all
    those
       to-morrows

inspired by the theme of The Murder on the Orient Express...

Caress the aching tears of 'morrows
it rains in regret's remembrances,
sustained of sand-like grit 'tween frothy
mimsy and mayhem endeavoring to
rise above the fray within prayer's favor mid
 escaped disconcertion of seeping hourglass sand,
weeping 'neath copious cloudbursts...

Today, A Phantom.
 
Heavy it lays upon my heart,
that today is a morrows past,
what there is now, an end --a start,
heavy it lays upon my heart,
tragic masks when do  break apart,
do bleak, so gloomy shadows cast;
heavy it lays upon my heart,
that today is a morrows past.

When all you've left to share are sorrows
No happy days nor sunny morrows
The grave's been dug, just grief awaits
No time to waste then, fill your plates
Go, hold a wake for what has passed
For life's too short; it doesn't last
When all that's left to share's regret
Move on; look up; forgive; forget...

There is a divine hilltop
Living deep within my soul;
In quiet I will climb it 
Til I reach my peaceful goal. 

All the forests of the season 
Will brush away my past woes
Turn the sand dunes to rivers 
And build rocks of new morrows.
On this hill, I'll grow fine seeds
Like a warrior of life, indeed!...

I SAW YOU LOOKING AT ME

The screech of door
Rush of men and women
Languorous over gin and tonic
Stepping down the ladder
Unannoyed at sharpened blade
Of turmoils of yester and morrows .

Dispassinonate I sun
My numb heart
Then I saw you looking at me
In the murmur of monsoon rain
With eyes sappaire crystals ....

men & women
looking at the hills
seas, mounts, vales
green forests of city-lines
& the blue rives & dives -
are these the treasures
of crocodile shells
everywhere
life looks like smooth shadows
in a mirror of morrows
mauled in today's kisses
or some tiny egg-shells
smashed in hasty disgust
of the disjointed hours....

Oh! A shilly-shally puzzle it is
an oracle's unfulfilled prophecy
a snarl of vagrant kind it is.
A riddle quite hazy to resolve.
May the impending morrows,
untangle this weird rune.
May the tale bearer blurt out
the augury of my future.
Can it be a mirth or gloom?
The all knowing superior deity
laughs at my uncanny anxiety....

Broken tables
And itchy saddles	
But still on
Leaving over this worth
Appreciating all as they come

Lost vigor 
And fallen figures
Yet still on
Throbbing so long
Seeing it afar
But still holding so far

Dark morrows!
Piercing sorrows!
Almost over I hope
And thinking it’s done
Headed for quittance
With hugs for success...

Come with me where wild roses bloom
among weeds in a field of rocks and pebbles
Each day will end with us holding hands at dusk
gasping at the sight of a peach and violet sky
I'll pin a rose behind your ear and kiss your lips
as a soft breeze whistles a love song to the moon
Our yester years will be forgotten then
and we'll make wishes on all of our morrows...

SO SAD
its sad
so bad

to stand
on land

where wood
once stood

ancient
patient

to grow
so slow

to wreck
a sec

lumbered
plundered

fauna
flora

morel's
bluebells

evolved
dissolved

churned
burned

debate
to late

no right
to blight

plan 'A'
no way

plan 'B'
plan 'C'

clever
never

morrows
sorrows...

In my husband's eyes,
shining light beams from his soul
like sirius bright 
behind those eyes, pure love glows
the love of family bonds

In my husband's eyes,
years of memories twinkle
and dreams of 'morrows
his eyes are portals to us
his eyes are sexy to me!

Just one day
Just a bit of patience
Just no thoughts of the yesters, 
and the morrows...
Just a little longer
Just this much!
Just this once
Then I will soar like the eagle that I am
And from afar
I will bring with me that which
Is to complete your life
And quench your anger
Just this one day,
Let me sleep knowing, 
In the illusion of my unsteady mind
That I still am the one!...

Want no mourning morrows
No running lakes by the falls
Want no laughing sorrow
No empty standing by the walls

Don't lock my door of morrows
Don't stretch your hands, where i can not touch

Don't shake your head, i'm no lost
Don't leave me on a lonely walk

I'm tears for rain to come
A drying flower for joy to come
I'm your dream to creaming dawn
A lonely child to a growing world...

He climbs up rhythmically 
keeping his legs
within a ring of rope 
like his life.

Intuition assures
the ripeness; 
life-nut falls down  
from the tree top.

Just a slip
will end in all end, 
but practice
rarely slips.

Though the ways are hackneyed, 
he’s honeyed and free
under his calluses.

Morrows and yesterdays,
he never climbs upon.
He hugs today, green and yellow
like the coconut tree leaves....

Then what's tomorrow
That I am without you
to scramble through a day
That you are gone
What for tonight
Might I might
Find you
That I might meet you
For us to carry on
In the world
Where we are neither
Complicated by such
Trust
Until then when I might
Meet you
I'll be alone
Until it's us
Then when we
Should cum together
Might we look to
The morrow days
Should we speak
Kind of one another
And might
We both behave...

Eating circles in the sky 
I ask you to step outside 
the space. It was time !

I will alter the succession 
of flesh to spirit. 
Sky was overcast, when 
mercury was falling.

The thread breaks. Your 
theory falls without wings. 
Chandeliers  chase the- 
shadows on the walls.

You start collecting the 
tomorrow and the morrows.
There were no more yester-
days. Ashes will stay in urns.

The grass remains wet with dew !

I awake my night with a 
dream,
and set at the day to go and 
let go,
here I am once again sliding 
back to life.

A better rebirth of 
tomorrow's morrows I pray,
for years back I wanted to 
escalate  the thwart wands 
away,
and now am waiving bye-
bye to my yester-went.

Farewell yesterday-
the knock has come to my 
door,
the rain is falling in my door
and to my Lord belongs the 
Glory..
today here I am and so..
what I am

smiling and glorify Him...

Fades strong air away
Nose counts memories
It's an ice-cream sundae
Normally full of calories
Hope that's hiding itself
Resistance of sorrows
Woos that very thief
Clinging new morrows.
Virus that itself clones
Loves its own antidotes.
Melody of seven strings
Just a joining of rings.
A broken sole fellow
Searches for the hollow
Touching every wounds
Those are not healing 
That desired sounds
Me nd you counting
Feeling of togetherness
In eternity encompasses....
