Hide and seek....

Searching

for something I never knew?

Finding

something I never sought….

Life pathways

with laughter and tears wrought.

No bitterness

No elation.

Hidden

where I can never find myself.

In Time.

In Space.

In which I never knew,

in which I never sought!

Forever after....

From where do
soul-mates start?
From when do you
pick up your heart?
How many lives ago?
How many yet to go?
How many ties
done and redone
Life after life after life?
Meet and die, meet and die
beneath the moon and the sun
life after life after life.
A sleight of hand
or a wave of a wand
got us together, closer and closer
life after life after life.
Until  a day, in some one life
we merge one into another.
Thence;
no parting, no connecting
as one is within the other!!

Play-mates

Have You- hitherto;

ever changed 

since a million years?

I have.

Born-died; lived-lied

loved-cried; lost and tried…

Don’t you

ever grow weary?

Of making me

Live-lie; love-cry

Lose-try; birth and die…?

Play on; Do and Undo.

Let me indulge You.

Only;

when You tire,

take me Home with You…!

Avatars in sojourn...

Forget me

if You will.

And set me free 

from Your memory.

For what flower

recalled

who drowned in its scent?

What lover

tallied

blissful moments spent?

Love’s melodies

cascade

over eons, across Time lines.

Soul-mates’ odysseys

braid

in skeins Divine.

Memories fade in Time’s abrade,

yet Karmic ties remain. 

Life after life after life

let my flute trill

to Your wondrous breath.

Life after life after life

will my breath still

in Your Flute.

The sound of silence

(Acrylic on paper;Invert colors)

Silence

drips,

drips

into a puddle of meanings.

Unsaid words

float,

fly away

to an uncaring oblivion.

Thoughts 

linger,

seep,

branching within core.

The dancing flicker

of a candle head

chatters 

in soundless shadows.

As yet another nightfall 

tip

toes

to slumber on words unsaid.

To the echo of

sounds that fled!
