WALKING BY THE CREEK
__
Cut into pieces of
Being; Bridge across forever
Waits - for the Fall                              - (Shashi)
The end of time's illusion

Everything at once                                 - (BobHartwig)
Beautiful feelings, flowers
Touching twilight                                   - (CraigVolney)
in the Valley of the Moon

murmuring quail                                    - (JimmythePeach)
sings the tree over creek long flown
was it worth its life?                              - (AnnaLipniacka)
Yes, a moment in nature -

All is relative.                                        - (A. M.Frasier)
Fate contingent on free will -
Native impressions.                               - (BerteenaGaines)
Fleeting,ephemeral,like

Water reflections.                                 - (GabriRigotti)
Pebbles pelt disruptively.
Sky untouched -- intact!                      - (Carolyn St. Charles)
thunderbolts, lightening, rain

pound the earth like mad                    - (Gracy Dsouza)
with every trail of sparks
flowers in night sky                             - (Dicere Babe)
Twilight  came back to the man

walking by the creek                             - (Anna Lipniacka)

WHISPERS: Memories and some Haiku...

My latest set of Haiku and some of the memories made and lost… and living in dying… titled ‘Memories’. Hope you will enjoy these verses…


Moon walks the lonely Path
Darkness of night dotted with stars
Hides all tears
__
Under the desert sky
Even fallen stars shine over
Shifting dunes of dying time
__
You sit beside me
Counting countless stars
On my finger tip
__


MEMORIES
______
Searching for lost
Scent of life
I look every where
Is there a meaning
Of this emptiness
Or is there a cosmic design
About to fall?
Is living, all about dying?

Why Sun sets
Why the sea waves fall
Why stars shine
Only in dark
Why the scent of your smile
Floats away, every time
I try to hold,
In my cupped palms

I gather the grains of sand
Left by your foot prints
In my broken heart
I smell the sunsets of your shadow
About to fall
In the spray of ocean scent
In the whispers of sea breeze
All over my broken heart

Remember that ledge of sand;
Where you sat down to count
Countless stars
– Fencing the endless horizon,
Of the dark night?
All still there, waiting
In endless living and dying
Between memories made or lost

There was no space between us
Now the ocean has filled, even that gap
As I sit across in my own desert spaces
That Orion’s belt still shines bright
You know, every lonely night
And I end my dreams with that lovely star
And shatter my living
In a new sunrise, another star

How To Save A Drop of Love

May 16, 2012

WHISPERS: How To Save A Drop Of Love ... and Haiku


Sharing some of my Haiku and thoughts & feelings of right now… Hope you like it.


River flows, Sun melts over the rock
She brings into my arms
– Earth and distant star
___
Dreams, dream dreams
Dying on and on...
– Into living
____
Cut into pieces – thrown apart
By time and space
There are many things wrong with me, right now
___


How to save a drop of love from drying up....
___________
As time takes its toll
As life takes its topsy-turvy turns
Like a river
Spiraling togetherness away from our lives
- Away from the static banks of past
The present flows into the unknown future
Into the Ocean of all - the living and the dead
Drop by drop, as water under the bridge
We all drift apart

Given enough space
Belongingness too, fades away
– Into the sea of memories
The living dead
 Then how to save...
A drop of love from drying up
Drop it into the ocean of togetherness
That was and that is and that will be

Dante's Love Story and The Red Sand...

Feb 8, 2012

WHISPERS: In Remembrance & Moon Haiku...

Today 7th Feb is the day of remembering those who have been with you on your journey for some time or forever. Who precipitated the essence of your living, into the seed within, that will burst forth in flowering, as time passes by. Making the path of living, more vibrant and beautiful for the travellers in your wake... So here I am with some Haiku about a beautiful moonrise and the longer verse “Where Ever I Will Fall...” 

Moon Rise on ECR - Chennai 7th Feb

The beauty is
Not the moonrise, but the memories
Of my heart; Dying apart
__
Moon shines
With all my memories
Packed, intact
__
Moon reflects
The dying Sun
Ocean scent scars
__

The Shore Temple - Mahabali Puram (7th Feb)

Where Ever I Will Fall…
______________
The withered temple waits
Forever eroding
In the deep silence
Echoing within
In the howls of dark nights
Sea, surf and sands
Search for that one sound
Of smile, lighter than the fall
That an autumn brings

Mingled with the red blood sea shells
I watch broken stars
Softly falling like dew drops
Tear the sands of time
White frothy waves, forever retreating
Taking whatever is
Still left beating in my heart
Where ever I will fall,
I will be the seed

Pilgrims of life
Create fire
And sacrifice
