Haiku ~ Blood

Red liquid, life
Source, precious to all
Rust slug when dead !

Blood red skies
Forbode unfettered rain
Calm, before the storm !

Red hot passion
Burn the sheets
The body, cool !

Bloodshot eyes
Flash the glitter
Ruby reflection !

Bloodcurdling cry
Water to ice maketh,
Fear explodes!

Poetry • Fragile Peace and A Shadow of You !

Fragile Peace:

Such a fragile peace we keep,
Like the gossamer weave,
Of a spider's web !

All it takes is just a whiff,
Of a sound ~ a vibration
Of clashing emotions!

The crashing of silence,
By cruel reality
Sear the bonds,
Of the true love we seek !


Shadow of You:

A shadow of you
Crossed my mind
T'was a mere wisp,
A tendril of thought
Fluttering through !
Trembling fingers
Reach out, greedy
To hold you there!
But time has won
Its silken round,
For slipping away
Is that shadow of you !

For HAIKU HEIGHTS ~ Cacophony


temple bells clang,
cacophony waketh Him,
arise, Lord, bless us !!

overheated noise,
in silence, cacophony
of screaming thoughts !!!


For A 100 Words on a Saturday ~ I was born ...

I was born ~ to be unborn !!!

To be free from this endless cycle of births and deaths !

Who knows truly, what eternity means? To be a part of that 

infinite whole, with no beginning and no end ? Yet, we believe, 

that the soul is eternal, that it aches to be one with the Supreme

Being. It is our deepest desire to be free from this cycle and one 

way, is the path of Karma, of good action !

I was born to be a good human, do good and be free ~ unborn,

in eternal bliss.

A Closed door ~ 100 words on a Saturday

I see that shut door; in a strange, surreal dream. Am intrigued ~ what mysteries does it hold within? A few ginger steps forward, keeping my thudding heart at bay. Should I, says the head? Oh, go ahead, says the heart! Perhaps, it holds the secrets of life, or the mythical places of my imagination?

But, open the door I must. For the wonders of hope that lie behind. I open the door, am swept into a magical place of blessed eternity, I had imagined. It struck me then, you are what you believe! You make your dreams come true!
