Short Undiminished Poems

encircled by thought 
no matter how well meaning
emotion not love
love undiminished with time
purring bliss rapture sublime

bliss always remains undiminished
but we mostly notice it not
heart insatiable, is always famished
trapped in a narrow thought slot

desire disables
silence enables

where are we?

unreciprocated and even unrecognised 
it mattered not for the beautiful rose
as it exuded a sublime fragrance 
undiminished till it’s dying breath
standing thus erect till the very end
mourning not the petals fickle fate shed...

is the plateau
in as it appears to us
mundane and commonplace

look again, oh hermit
let us infuse in the void
our agendaless vibrancy

may undiminished remain the sparkle 
of our soul’s innate luminescence 
in a time stretched continuum

We are his honorary VAN GUARDS standing afore.
We know not of graves nor dimness of light of senses.
Lo' there we prepare these shores undiminished in
Dusk of night. 

For thee BEING OUR HIGHNESS UNBLEMISHED.
And they cometh all  fRom the greatest distance.
SHAKE thy HEAVENS.  QUAKE THY EARTH.
At THY WILL
TIME IS NOTHING...

Hope is a wide-eyed toddler

happily drooling in anticipation

of once again taking tentative steps,

swaying sideways, staggering,

falling forward,

down on bruised

knees...


only to be back and up again 

on fumbling tiny feet,

determination undiminished,

innocently undaunted, 

toddling tirelessly

again, and

again !...

The Blazer’s Put Away

The blazer’s put away now,
The medals in their drawer;
The polished shoes and formal tie
Back where they were before.

Commemorations over,
Reunions all finished;
Stories spun, marching done,
Old friendships undiminished.

Bands no longer play now,
Applauding crowds have gone.
But every day, each in their way,
Remembering goes on.

Each stars relentless splendour charts a
course to keep the path of true love shining
bright. 
To bring you ever closer under the velvet
skies of universal moonlight. 
Distance shows no mercy. 
Longing never subsides. 
Absence spreads its cruelty with each turning
tide. 
Hanging by a thread of feeling that wings its
way on the word of love. 
Undiminished by the passing times fondness
ever stronger there of..........

we push and pull
without striving
in tranquil calm
enjoying the game
till the scorpion stings
then anguish binds
dragging us down
into darkness 
until we rebound
restoring equanimity 
but in the intervening space
between delusion and illumination 
the impressions imbibed
if viewed with nonchalance 
ends the purpose of earth life
since awareness is undiminished 
beholding itself in each wave
as life ebbs and flows

all aspects of our self
beauteous is each hue
bubbling spontaneously 
letting vibrancy renew

undiminished is elation
equal are dark and light 
for God is omnipresent 
heightening bliss delight

every breath is a miracle
as is rhythmic heartbeat
the vast void conspires
that love may love greet

unfettered like the breeze
soma nectar freely flows
all nodes within come alive
as rapture unbound grows
