Rounded Rays

rounded rays, ringed rain
rusted reflection, rueful roses
rivers rugged, roosters red
ridged rosewood, Roman rocks

Live life to the fullest

“One clear moment, one of trance 
One missed step, one perfect dance 
One missed shot, one and only chance 
Life is all…but one fleeting glance.” 
― Sanober Khan

Oh there it goes

fleetingly,

swimmingly,

gently,

Lesson

Let me sing it back to you
the serenade
how it travels far and wide in the
strange lands till you hear
it’s an echo of your lonely heart

Journey-A Question

“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and he’s not the same man.”
― Heraclitus

A grandeur of illusion

a miracle of sorts

trailblazing your dreams

and circling and creating

that swirls in your eyes

Lessons

Winds, in a caress blew

    leaves in new fears

Nights, in winds drew

    stars in new tears

Snowballs

The snowballs come
The grizzly bears look up

A sledge upon these feet
Armed with a fur of wisdom
Finds edges to glide between
foxes rushing down in hunger
in these round furs of snow

Empty Spaces

Pain, you are the answer
You show the empty spaces, around me
You show the empty spaces, within me
You show the empty spaces, I thought were full

Three Lives

as I see you, up there
in quiet meditation
count every step
every pause, every atom
you vibrate in soft touch
this universe, in hands

Your Script

in your length, of life
you give lessons, of depth
your soul stuffed, in a hard shell
carols its heart, till the last breath
living for nothing, but to give

Mouse, of the wild

O mouse, of the wild
Mystified under the bush
Do you wear a shadow
To cover your fears

Present

as moments present, flutter their wings
shiver they not from icy past shadows
cringe not ever from fires tall, to come

Lesson Of The Day (To Self)

it is time now, of sunset
to empty the mind, recollect
unroll those thoughts wound
from the long day you found

Strange Lessons to Unlearn

I remember you
when I forget myself
when I become nothing
when I am a medium

A Grass And Shrub

To expect, to see reality
Diverge in meaning
As do a grass and shrub
Teaching life in lessons

Wishes

I met a girl the other day

To her I asked,

“What is your most fervent wish?”

She looked at me, puzzled.

“Whatever do you mean?”

said she

Others’ Mistakes

As I write about life

I stumble upon many mistakes

From choosing a shoe to a wife

Bloopers every man makes

We are said to learn

From our error

But it is hard to discern

Running away from life’s horror
