In all departures there is an arrival
If a fugitive evening grabs a moment
asks explanations
I will leave a bunch of questions in the answer
Will anyone give a solution to the web?
The light that is suddenly long touches the porch
One by one the unknown thoughts disappear
Who remembers it?
griefs at those who left the world forever
A mysterious bird is calling mournful incessantly
Any farewell is tied at a distance along the chest breath
Those who were near they goes faraway in the fetus of the time
Life woke up, the noise of the train station is heard
Lovers are reunited rhythm of commitments forgetting painful past separation
One faith survives in departure
On arrival again, the fragrance awakens in revival of a season.
United prayers
Thoughts clouding my mind ever and ever
Days and nights over and over
Do we really think we are human?
We only look alike human.
We created countries, territories, wars
Our existence, nationalities, Identities, rules, systems, victory, defeats
We created races, religions, cultures, ethnicities, colors, hatreds
Do we not realize we created disintegrations beyond humanities?
Continents, Rich, Poor, civilizations, powers, positions
Are these parameters to be celebrated?
Can we not ease the differences forever?
Fetching peace, solace and love moreover!
We are living in boundaries of divisions
Iniquity against the Creator
Iniquity against the Soul
Iniquity against belief of life
My silent prayers to be humane and human
Oh Lord! save the humanity at its triumph.
An Ode: Niagara Falls
The roar of lofty water still I can hear
Oh! The mystery chasing me everywhere!
How it could be so immense and so powerful,
My heart beats to shatter my senses and my soul.
The verdant erosive water splashing in sky high
Mist touches my hair and face cordially to glorify.
The rocks beneath the waves made the falls color in passion
A bubbly dancing girl as ‘The Maid of the Mist’ in admiration.
The breathless motion in my fear when I am too near in boat
To gulp my emotion in a second to discover such a height
Hissing water in a graceful curve spray over the edges
As an explorer I am in ponder in miracle mazes.
A line of rocks to conceal the mountain and distant sea
The birds are howling across the towering neck in glee.
I mark your bold thundering to tell me some words
Always pouring never halts, in rippled gusty moods.
O, Niagara Falls, you are so close and so far,
I am frightful and in appreciation in your eternal wonder.
Shadowed Twilight
The earth’s wall hemmed me
I stepped out of imaginary silhouette
A gazing eye following me thin
gleams in footfalls of mindset.
Soul is prisoned, sapphire lined
crimson lip in wine red love
tosses away simply declined
shattered dreams survived
behind the mirrored image of a dove.
Since I met Keats and Bryant.
Oh I tasted truth in beauty
I hear the voice at early light in walking sight
the statue in shadowed twilight of liberty.
