Butterfly
Motion alone is real
Ever propelling
My wings luminiscent
And child like passion
That I feel in each midge astir,
Life-fugitive, infinite
That wakes its mates
In my withness, my here
Unaware who I am
that It calls to me.

Tortoise
Short of legs but not insight
Eyes awe bound
Belly earth borne,
Back home packed
Gait monastic
Native of no land,
Call led crawls, sense fed-
A bite here, a munch there
Bidding Time to slough out
Of this shell clad life.

Sleep
Torso bed lain, consciousness slain,
Freewill shorn, inward borne
By the wakefulness I trust within,
Though all senses stand still -
Never wondering what is real,
Dream wound or dust woven- me.,
For only to the senseless
Is this sense revealed.

A Rose
Without any chart save your trust
In soulmost beauty
Is all your science
And your only heart born
Art which alone transforms
What is devotion
Into the rapture of a rose,
Leaning with the wind
At my window as a connection
Between immensity and me
.

Sorrow
Whomsoever my sorrow i told,
He moaned and told his hundred
And one.
Wherever i turned my eye
Rarely met one whose sight
Made me cheerful so distracted
Are they all by objects of world's
Flattery whose morsel
Is sweet,
Taste manifest but fire hidden.

Moon's Fate
Mother rhythm borne, sunlit
Torch, diurnal round bound,
Recurrent becomes her resurrection
As elusive her Time, obedient
To which orbit all Nature's
Marvels bar her way to for Ever
Unlike mood moulded man's
Soaring soul, heaven attained,
Reveals higher.

Clock
Unmoved, move hands shaped twain
Wound in metal optic nerves,
To wisdom, beauty, love and youth
As if all heaven condensed, allied,
With stealthy minutes creep
As eternal breath itself, alive
That owns not man's dominion
Yet he owns to it his passing years.

Cradle Thrill
Hard to still my thrill
So fast returns my babyhood feelings
As all heaven condenses in the feel
Of my baby's warm little hands in mine
Whose thoughts compared, all
Other thoughts are nought and
Despite a mere moment, the measure
Of such moments century fulfils.

Glimpse Of Love
Born of faith
What's life in its fulness
Unlike other states
Love is not transit
But infinitely lasts.
It's soul's inward power,
Has a reality but no form,
Holds no memory of a wrong,
Heart alone feels
When desires and wishes
Phase out to become love itself.

A baby's view of abortion
I came as tomorrow
Swaddled in innocence
To your warm womb
Mother……
Without your choice
Or mine
Destined to up date
With time
Our human tree
But before love
Grew into flesh and words
What is unfinished creation-
A precipitation of blood
Became my transcendence.
