Throb Poems

Question Mark?

You are now dead, but
still in my head.
What should I do?
You kind of reflect in my eyes
when I close my lids.
The deceased can't talk, but you do in my ears.
What's happening? It's so weird.
My throat gets dry when I swear
I will let throw you out from my brain.
My veins throb when I say, 'I don't want you.'
Is this a video game or someone playing a prank?
Am I brave that I still battle with a soul?
Or will I find peace, or will it shatter me into pieces?

Tickling each tissue
Of my tender heart 
This throb of
My thirst for you 
Teases me
And tears me apart

Dewdrops Throb
One misty dawn a rose was kissed
The kiss of love, full flush
In magic of a morning tryst 
Her joyful soul became bewitched 
On her face shone a scarlet blush
Dewdrops from her eyes rush.

Rose tells her secrets to the trees
She knows they understand
Praying down on her bended knees
That the love she’d found never leaves
Asks God to lend His helping hand
Dewdrops from heaven land.

Tears that come from deep devotion 
For the one of her dreams
He is her poetry potion
Healer of inner commotion
Inside her spirit glows in beams
Dewdrops slide down in streams.

The rose pirouettes all day long
 Dancing for joy and love
Singing to her favourite song
A choir of birds chirping along
Busy bees buzzing o’er foxglove 
Dewdrops throb high above.

Bliss throb heightens, as we look on
Awareness self-aware
Each moment die and are reborn
For life, nary a care

Our attachments recede
To God, our will we cede
Erst ferality weed

Aura brightens 
Bliss throb heightens

Bliss throb rising, our form enveloping
Unbound is joy, in dance of innocence 
Delighting benign currents cascading
Mindful cognisance of subtle nuance

Inner balance, invokes divine cadence
Nodes within aligning, love caressing 
Grace essence felt by inner sentience 
Bliss throb rising, our form enveloping

Heart inviting, magnetism delighting
Egos penance, this carefree dalliance
All embracing, smiling child so playing 
Unbound is joy, in dance of innocence 

Heavenly fragrance, fortifies patience
Accepting our life force slowly ebbing
Erect stance reveals its luminescence 
Delighting benign currents cascading

No doing needed, on earth journeying
Save stillness and silence continuance
Fickle fears ceasing, fearlessly flowing
Mindful cognisance of subtle nuance

Divine effervescence, our quintessence
We are here for loving, giving, growing
Lower mind urges, keep at a distance
Trusting Gods touch, allowing enabling
Bliss throb rising

The Throb of Silence

the sound of silence echoes more... 
than all the noise of loud uproar

Premium MemberThrob of Bliss Scintillating

I write upon my soul, imprinting my desire,
birthing thereby, karmic cause and effect;
this truth veiled, during earth visit,
due ego delusion,
manifest as belief of my separateness,
leading to cyclic joy and suffering.

In silence and stillness, consciousness discerning
underlying cause of stuporousness,
as my thought borne agitation,
of habits that persist.
No sooner my flaw within, I did so detect,
consigned ego to the funeral pyre.

Thought rested, ego faded, heart was yet afire,
love enabled, divine aligned, stance erect,
transcending lower mind limit,
in void of cessation,
myself abiding in self-aware awareness,
ensconced by throb of bliss scintillating.

Hermit! Embrace, hold and release with ease
Allow vibrant bliss within to renew
Flowing with nonchalance; a gentle breeze
Hermit! Embrace, hold and release with ease
Recognise ego as cause of disease
Each moment pristine, like the morning dew
Hermit! Embrace, hold and release with ease
Allow vibrant bliss within to renew

Beat about the bush no more, oh hermit!
Listen to the voice of silence within.
Ignition in renewal, pulse perfect!
Simply go in! Rest imagination.
Shed off oh hermit, all inhibition!

Thirst for God connect, is all that it takes.
Handle all ego urges, which calm shake.
Rely always on divine assistance.
Opt for love alone and ego forsake.
Be free and joyous in divine parlance.

Joy,
Sorrow;
Both cyclic,
As is all else
In the external.
Simple recognition
Of a pulse in renewal,
An open secret in plain sight,
Compelling us to explore within:
Inner sound current, divine light and bliss.

The pathless path thus begins with a thirst,
To see the truth clearly in plain sight.
Resting instruments external,
Distilled attention flowing,
Devoid of resistance,
We go in within
In surrender,
To behold
Vibrant
Bliss.

The energy path of tantra is direct and unapologetic, as also unmistakable. Thought rested, we vividly feel within, soma nectar navigating an esoteric path of its choosing through hidden nadis within our energy grid. Upon union of polarities at the heart centre, a magnetic bliss ignition renews unendingly within the central Sushumna channel. Each lifetron stands independent, collaborating with all in a beauteous dance divine. Give it any name but we are no longer the same.

Electricity
Vivifies form day and night
Captive to delight

Spiralling around in pattered grooves
Oblivious to throb of bliss that within renews

Immersed in delusion discontent
Strangely yet hoping on for happiness permanent 

Go in oh hermit into the heart
In bliss as ignition within each moment restarts

Heart Throb

I slurped at the buttery sauce.
It dribbled corner to corner.
I said “Serve it at bed
With fatty pork and bread-
And hide it from the coroner!”

Delusion being merely stagnation by indulgence in narrow cravings of the ego, which once we forgo by polarity rotation of awareness energised attention, our unclinging stance of free flowing innocence, vitalises & rejuvenates the core of our being in stillness sedate.
