The Lotus..!!

We own a pond of heart within,
Albeit full  of our numerous sins,
Yet, a lotus is about to bloom,
In the depth of serene silence.
Lotus seeks for its lost identity ,
In the solid darkness of ignorance,
Yet no dirt ever dare to impure,
the divinity of the gentle petals.
The destiny of pure lotus is certain,
It cant remain in its confinement,
It tenderly seeks a way out,
To emerge as a winning spirit,
It awaits for the glimpse of light,
For a perfect flowering of bliss.
Sweet fragrance of pious lotus,
carry the truth of our existence,
It unfurls to sanctity of nothingness,
when soul put forth its infinite rest.

Cosmic Journey..!!

Infinite journey of spirit 
in the guise of formless,
wheels of time rolls on 
from mortality of births.

Wings of karma carry 
the unknown weight of destiny.
Boundless ways of birth 
witness streams of life.

In the sphere of timelessness
the prolonged spirit anticipates
it's glorious last ride 
the right of deathless being.

Ether of soul expanses
to eternal vastness
and sips nector of ecstasy

while quenching thirst.

The Awakening..!!

Beyond space and time,

through celestial veil,

an enigmatic sojourn unfolds

a path paving towards salvation.

Embrace of the unknown,

in the womb of mystery,

search for unseen from seen,

and finite to the infinite.

Illusions are decisive

conclusions stand still

truth glow underneath

marooned with ignorance.

Silence roars against noise,

cascade of contradictions.

vacuum rip-off boundary 

paradigm of false delusions.

As grip loosens, shadow fades,

clotted ebony unblock ways,

invisible stain vanishes,

as colossal truth unveils.

Galore of awareness explode,

capturing moments of rhapsody.

Herald of golden bliss sparks,

as soul rejoices to the awakening.

An Icy Memory ..!!

Beautiful meeting of hearts 
blooming and flowering 
On the lap of brief spring.
Love reigns as sparkling crown
On the illusion of eternity.
Pace of season rushes
While tides of time drifting
All the promises are falling
exchanged by ecstatic hearts.
Albeit, perfume of unique love
fails to stop the wind of change
that dilutes every bit of excitement
And vanish the traces of charm.
As life goes by and wind pass by
Feelings become frozen as warmth lost
It remains a cold memory
In the depth of a frozen past.
The sigh ask in silence as darkness
Shall it melt with a future embrace 
Or shall it remain as an icy memory?

Untired Wait..!!

Long have I held your love
never once it got honoured.
My smile remains in confinement
inside bud of a bruised dream.

Your memory warms my hope
thus melting my frozen tear.
How I gasp, stillness of silence?
still it drops un-uttered sob.

I listen to the passing wind
to hear your vague murmur.
Fragments of moments' scattering 
lashing over heart's shore.

Each anguished sigh decodes
messages that refuses to reveal.
It gets vaporized in the forms
of retrieving waves of time.

Yet tired gaze search everywhere
for a trace of frail shadow.
Despite stretched in vain
as if surrendered in defeat.

But I recognise your firm footsteps.. 
Fading in the passing distance..
It makes my bosom so heavy, 
denying an inevitable farewell..

As breath awaits for your fragrance
that passing through near distance.
Heart refuses to stop its pursuit
as my hope became an 'Untired Wait'!
