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

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

WHISPERS: Memories from Living



Journey from Past life

To the Future; has been a Present
Revelation of love
__

You paint love
All over my body
With red hues of wet desires
__

Your lips, whisper
Poetry over my senses
Passionate words tattoo my skin
__

I wrote the first part (In Italics) more than a decade ago, which came back to me with an answer, which is the last part of the verse below (In Italics again). In between I have put the living… hope you like it.

Memories from living


Small brush with feelings
Takes a long time
To fade
On the lips
Or on the memories of life

As the moments flow
Towards a destiny that is neither there
Nor here
But within - all at once
There is no path
Just the shadows of desires
That my mind dreams of

Tearing-up my living
Into pieces of past and future.
Mind is bleeding memories
And dreams
Lost in the wilderness of my being
I search for you
For a path of actualizing me

There is none
Past is a memory
Future, just a dream
Present is what exists
Without you – Lifeless
There is no where to go
I am already ‘am’ - That is it

Stars of the deepest sky, know
What is right to happen
When and how
We just need to trust the flow
And let ourselves go
