Cleaner the heart, better the judgement. Clearer the view, of anything in review. On top of your sins, a simple life begins. Complexities subside, stronger is the stride. Clarity in your thinking, potent is the effort. Beautiful is the green, of the plains that mimic youth. Swaying is the blue, of the sky where thoughts …

The definition of Happiness.
The air is wearing thin, Into perennial love. The walls of your milieu crack, And crumble to bring in eternal joy And life. And light, as it falls on a crimson rose. Its fragrance richer than its red, cocoons the Earth. A wave of the ocean forms a circle, as the moon sits on it …
Wasted life
The Peepal stands alone in this farm. Golden rays of the Sun fall on a silver ring, making it slightly more valuable. Stacks of hay are placed under the tree, where a squirrel is seen and no more. The sky is blue and pristine clean. There is no wish for a God, no need for …
Departure
Release, for it will fall in time What’s in a clutch vanishes in mind What departs from life, if leaves a scar Was held to hard, or too far For it’s religion to know All must go It should bid farewell to a human heart Let go, it’s the foremost art.
Wreck
I chose the field instead of a mansion. An open blue sky instead of the safety of a ceiling. Laying on overgrown grass, I wish I could melt into the invisible.Golden sunlight washes my face and to anyone not knowing, I am a blessed man. Butterflies ,and dragonflies float in the air. A soft breeze …
Departed
There, a butterfly surfs on the air. It knows not where it goes Or where it came from. Effortless to my sight, It’s wings are in uplifting flight, It asks not why it is here, Or wishes for a life after life. It counts but this moment, For beauty in the now, Is the truth …
Vow
Take you dancing to the infinite skies, Your heart it’s joyful, tears on your eyes. Like lovers on ice, With movements precise, Our love it survives the World. Your ingenuous hope, rests as a telescope, To the day that waits unfurled. Your soul it sings, like the Sitar strings, As Life is as love to …
As Creation did Unfold
All nature seeked a heart,A home to hold her art.For beauty is borne in breasts,Her limbs sought room a stretch.As her hues she did display,The heart uttered, to lose its say.In the fragrance of this soul,As Creation did unfold.
Words
These words, they jump out of the pageAnd into the atmosphere.They Swirl and curl and twirl to the boundariesOf this limitless sphere.These words they reside, pop up and hideInto the expanses of our mind,These words are love, These words are lifeThese words are resourceful mines.Now, there a line flows, from the holder of woesAnd takes …
Answer
Let the light shine through your eyes,And into the outside world gleam.I pray you live your dreams,To know they were not your answer.
