Love beyond all

Full of mirth, manna from heaven, pure and oh! so lofty
Neither riches, nor power can mar, for, true love is ever free...

Whispering, cajoling softly and oh! so subtly encouraging...
Presenting wings, standing by, true and undemanding... 

A million lives for selfless love's one oh! so tiny moment...
A million breaths for that perfect and pristine sentiment... 

Every struggle, every torment of hades oh! so agonizing...
For the elixir of love - eternally healing and tranquillizing...

Momentary and yet eternal, humane and yet oh! so immaculate...
An emotion never to cease, every soul to heaven elate...

Magic in us

The little bird in her nest sleeps, unaware of the sky above that it needs to conquer...
The seed hidden under the earth, knows not about its destiny as a mighty tree...
The turtle eggs in the beach lie there, oblivious of their future amidst the deep currents of the mighty ocean...

The magic of the stars, the cool pleasant presence of the moon, cannot make up for the nourishment given by the hot Sun...

The cycle of days, the recursion of seasons, a birth of a calf, hatching or an egg, the flight of the birds, the tiny shoots that emerge from the earth, flowers blooming...
Ah.. the magic of the infinite almighty...

Magic when the lightning strikes the bare ground and the energy captured by the earth...
Magic when lava from the volcano cools down to yield new nourishing lands...
Magic in the oyster and the conversation or an irritant into a pearl...
Magic in friendships, magic in love, magic in nourishment... the magic of me and you...

Water, wind and Gaia together as a mighty tree - bound till eternity...

Water,  wind, Gaia and tree..
Love and sacrifice.. Eternally free....

-------------------

He came to her, falling from the lofty high!!
Pure, fresh, pristine and oh!  so shy!
There were others,  but he paid no heed..
He loved,  though she already was with a seed..

Taking aid from his friends that went breezing by..
And the brilliance of happiness from the bright sky..
Sacrificing for his love with no doubt or fear
He nurtured the seed of his beloved earthy dear..

While he rested in peace, having fulfilled his destiny..
The young one, sprang forth, a miracle oh!  So tiny..
His earthy mother's child and  named after another..
Yet preserving deep in his core, eternally, the nurturer..

Testimony of a silent observer...

I saw rivers run clean and streams of kindness from hearts flow
I witnessed distrust, doubts, pettiness and feelings shallow
But for every sad doubtful one, I saw manifold ones so kind
I saw humanity spring and surge - a pure soul, heart and mind!

I saw birds fly, and thoughts clear, unbound and free
I saw trappings too, of dogma and divisions of society
But for every shackle, I saw many boundaries broken
I saw freedom, harmony ricochet lucid and awoken!!

I saw the forests grow - the mirth of budding innocence...
A new awakening, of thoughts and of ideas a congruence
I saw a new bright dawn in majestic Gaia’s Life story!! 
I saw renaissance anew, in its eternal splendour and glory!!

The girl and the rain

The girl in white, holding the blue umbrella, walked along looking quite pretty

She walked tall, her head held high; oh! very sweet and yet a bit snooty

From the heavens, the rain came pouring, driving everyone to the cover

Opening the umbrella, she stepped into the street, she didn't belong in the corner



As she trotted along, nose in the air, a strong gust of wind came rushing down

The powerful gale turned the umbrella inside out, making it look like a large crown

Away from the corners, nowhere to hide, under the downpour the girl was now stuck

Her attire all wet, water dripping down her hair, she ran in, cursing her luck..

A broken tune

The bubbles that once seemed like brown caps on soldiers swimming in muddy waters

Now remind us of pollution, filth, dirty splashes, stains and splatters

The paper boats are long gone, gone, are the carefree jaunts in rains

The downpours now bring forth the dread of peak traffic jams and pains...

The sky and the earth are the same, so are the waters that come rushing down

Yet, this heart of mine that once sang out, now makes me worry and frown

Bewildered, I delved, high and low, seeking that long lost happy tune

Found it, broken and strewn amongst, memories thrown aside as picayune

Are you me

Into nothingness, she stares on! Searching all the while...
Expressionless eyes stare back, as she attempts, in vain, to smile...
Her pain she hides, in the protective fortress of her broken heart...
Holding on to some strange hope and a tattered dream, long ripped apart...

Her perfect features and porcelain like skin, to a life gone, give a testimony
As I walked away, that undead breathing cadaver whispered, "are you me?"
