WAR AND PEACE





Everyday news come with photographs those hold news of war, blasts, tears, from places where morning has sequel of smoke, sarin or chlorine gas fomented dreaded paces. Cactus loses its beauty, peeled bags full of bones, tied with yellow grass threads, (although everyone does not want to let everything go with anger and apathy), and bodies of children horribly contorted, lifeless, and wrapped with white papers.  Places are there where sounds of guns roar for decades, followed by another warned moments, and deserted lands, exodus of refugees, more and more and more. No one knows when and where peace will prevail for shake of humanity and other values of life, hope, existence, for constructing gardens where downpour rains, green grass to sprout, no difference between mine and theirs, and we stop fuming up anger, agony and stop seeing human being dead by war and let life go with colors and dream, like flying of kites in delight of lights, in the vast sky, and its darkness is a beauty of wonders, and sky is not an urn full of ashes.

SONGS OF SHRI KRISHNA

Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna,
Krishna Krishna Hare Hare,
Hare Rama, Hare Rama,
Ram Ram Hare Hare,

They sang words
About Krishan
To fill all hearts
With blessing of Krishna,
Happiness in mind,
Misery to be abandoned
To remain gleeful
With kindness to the world,
Not binding in a room,
But to travel with peace,
Across home and the world,
Without disguise,
But free with everyone,
To endure pathos,
To live with energy and dream,
Miracle is in our hearts,
And we can dwell in melodies of life.

LOVING SILVER SWAN: Short story slam week 49

Between two silver swans, a fairy lady stands, a simple beauty to guide light for those who are wild at whims of hazy understanding.

She stays in such a way that one can think of lovely appearance of peace, sticky dark may disappear from this fairy land, into the sky, and no fear stays, one can live with honor, its process bears no anxiety, and this comes effortlessly by the way of singing of swans, in a garden of charming trees, settled down at this exotic place without vanity.

This serenade of mystery of beauty, in fairy morning, creates future of life, with songs of birds, over conscience of love, along the life’s intention, with hope of dwelling peacefully.

Dreaming for a while
We stop at a place where
Fairy queen equals
Inequalities and binds

Images with dreams.

MOTHER DURGA

As artists are making the image
Of Devi Durga, I salute Mother Durga
In Her all forms and heavenly gestures

For peace and happiness on the earth.

THE (BETEL) NUT TREE IN PRISON

With mind tangled in so many issues
It turned up to thinking maximum drills

I think to cut my head to tear up cord
To remove warring zeal and paramount shrill,

Eyes go outside window to find freshness,
It is the ripe nuts in the tree caught in prison

Of brick culture and brick sketching around,
As if the nut tree convicted to concrete structure

And it has to obey laws of brick diagonals,
Yet it gets food and water, and stands bold to produce

Its fruits amid walls, tearing upon the modernity
That image pierces me to think about ethos

And I may have points to say, yet I have context
To imagine and build organs of growing relationship

All around my enclosures, wherein I may be fruitful to
Assure the world that mind is wise to bring peace.

DEVOTEES OF GODDESS DURGA



The grandson lonely
Moves for what can be
His terms of protection
On the pandal of Goddess Durga
Who mounts on Her pet lion,
In Her legendary win in the war
Along with four children, on Her altar,
And we worship Her for peaceful living
With Her gracious presence
With Her blessing upon us,
She stands for all blessings,
Upon us with our dreams
And Her wining zeal,
With movement of judgment and colors,
With glory and promises,
With glittering light of mind,
From the baby to the old devotee,
Obedient to acquire consciousness,
For defending honest sacrifice,
In the searching of love and peace,
In the battle of good and evil,
On the long way of perfectness
Of becoming well being,
For living with peace and happiness.

REFLECTION OF LOVE


Beautiful things,
Moving in spirit of dream,
Are needful to loving persons,
As if window gives entry
To the vision of flower,
Whose beauty is true,
In real belongings, and in dream, too,
And love is like wakeful singing,
Into mind, and kissing is a term of living,
And it takes time to know love.

If something is slipping away,
It is the mind that swings in vision,
And a look into flowering appearance
Will bring beauty of love,
Every touch will bring peace,
Over body and mind,
And everyone will learn,
Love is an essence, and
Nothing is missing in its presence.
