Morning Unfolds
A soft wind lifts the curtains.
light spills across the wooden floor.
dust spirals in lazy circles
and the quiet hum of the house
feels like a gentle heartbeat.
I step outside
the earth smells of wet grass and stone.
a bird’s song cuts through the stillness
small, specific, lively
and i bear in mind I belong here.
The sun melts my skin
the world extended,

In the deep silence of the night, when the sky unfolds its mantle
In the deep silence of the night, when the sky unfolds its mantle,
I drift, dreamlike, among constellations of thoughts that embrace the moon,
A solitary soul, like a forgotten temple beneath falling stars,
Waiting for you, the eternal traveler, to be its light and solace.
In the labyrinth of shadows, where the timpani of time silence solemnly,
Seek your

Inspiration
Somewhere between when sleep overtakes
and then when I'm not really awake
as if on a film running through my head
the reel unrolls a story unfolds
and I never lose the thread
tho' the plot may be somewhat bizarre
from whence I know not yet never forgot
I find words appear in my mind
from way over yonder out of the blue
and

how destiny unfolds
before enactment of an event on earth
creation occurs in a subtler domain
call it what we will; it’s there our will takes birth
like blessings from heaven falling down like rain
so what this deep truth is, once we here unearth
ego spawned fears and desires are to rest lain
for we know that we’re one with the universe
navigating

End of the World
It’s the end of the world, babe
Since the second of May this year
Nothing can save us, maybe
A miracle, but it’s unclear
As it always happens with miracles
They get lost on the next day
Which appears to be satirical
But a few can see it this way
It’s the end of the world, now
It starts from this very date
Write a

HimaBindu: A Star in Winter's Night
In icy peaks, your name is born,
Hima, a whisper of winter's morn.
Bindu, a droplet, pure and fine,
Together merged, a beauty divine.
Like snowflakes gently falling deep,
Your heart remains, in slumber, keep.
Bindu's tiny form, a universe holds,
Reflecting dreams, like winter's tales unfold.
In frozen landscapes, your soul takes flight,
A gentle breeze stirs, on a winter's night.
Himabindu, a name

The transformation of the poet into an artist unfolds like a hymn
The transformation of the poet into an artist unfolds like a hymn to the defiant spirit,
an age-old story with familiar themes of the literary outcast,
where alcohol and poverty dance frenetically in the shadow of tumultuous love,
but at the heart of this storm lies a silent flame, an unwavering devotion,
to the written word, a warm and

Under the vast vault of the night, the story unfolds
Under the vast vault of the night, the story unfolds,
A silver river winding through deep dreams,
The moon, a silent dancer, spins on the canvas of the sky,
The breeze whispers prayers that have traveled through time.
The waves of life carry us like leaves on water,
We, travelers without a compass, gaze at the infinite sky,
We invoke a

2025 future unfolds
A future unfurls, like a canvas so bright,
2025 arrives, with promise and light.
Cities soar high, with towers of might,
Sustainable dreams, in morning's first light.
Robots roam free, with artificial hearts,
Humans and tech, in harmonious starts.
Virtual realms, where love and art entwine,
A world remade, with innovation's design.
Electric skies, with drones buzzing by,
Green forests thrive, with a renewed

Autism's Secret Now Unfolds
In the world where this secret dwells,
One truth shines bright, my tale to tell,
Autism, a spectrum vast and wide,
In its embrace, I've learned to hide.
Level one, a gentle dawn,
With minimal support, they carry on,
Independence sings in their heart's refrain,
Navigating life with grace through pain.
Level two, a deeper shade,
Where voices tremble, and fears invade,
Substantial support becomes

as it unfolds
she had youth on her side
and couldn't care less
the world at her feet
oblivious to what's out there
perhaps lurking in the dark
like rose-coloured lenses her filters
paint for her a contorted reality
and she smiles and she laughs
almost delirious in her delusion
nothing we could or should say
we just watch holding our breath

In labyrinths, shadows dance and flicker, a chessboard of time unfolds
In labyrinths, shadows dance and flicker, a chessboard of time unfolds,
Where dreams, like pawns, march solemnly through mist and silent groves,
And every queen, crowned with sorrow or with joy, knows the ancient moves,
For life, the hidden grandmaster, preordains each step our spirit beholds.
Under the canopy of night, constellations carve uncharted designs,
A chess game enshrined in

My solitude weaves the paths of the night that unfolds beneath my footsteps
My solitude weaves the paths of the night that unfolds beneath my footsteps,
And when my eyelashes fall heavy - a puppetry of worlds dims in their blindness.
In the frown of my eyebrows,
The Moon transforms into a sidereal onion suspended above the crests of the world.
I gather universes in my pockets, bring in my palm the

In the fabric of spring, the map of life renewed unfolds
In the fabric of spring, the map of life renewed unfolds –
A vibrant painting in a blend of young shades of birch, acacia, and ash;
A symphony of colors that come alive in the effusions of triumphal dawns;
No fading like it – each ray reawakens the verdant glade.
Beneath the steps of Spring, the flowered carpet, dust

witnessing life flow unfold
to retain heart’s glow
it helps not to know
our fate foretold
what counts is this
soul’s vibrancy innate
letting not fear forms bait
presence suffused with bliss
