Nothing and Everything
Nature needs diversity
in order to exist in its natural state—
nothing is the same
Within its kingdom
the lion is no greater than the bee—
everything is the same

Tanka ll
we aren't god's gift, but
rather its aberration~
mother's laugh echoes
across the eons timelessly
at our empires of sand
rather its aberration~
mother's laugh echoes
across the eons timelessly

झूठ की अहमियत
सत्य तो शिव सा सुंदर है
पर झूठ कीअहमियत भी कोई कम नहीं
वह भी शिव सा ही अथाह है
अकल्पनीय...

THE PRUDENCE OF A FEMALE
THE PRUDENCE OF A FEMALE
When l saw her blue eyes, at once l knew
they were the masters of my easy heart.
She looked at me with jewels soft and bright,
a look whose depth was of a profound well.
What sort of vague, abysmal depth she showed?
All around was well lit, a summer day.
Her eyes well scrutinized my witless look,
and weighed the senses that my eyes conveyed.
And then, they cleared and eased a sweet reply
that my eye message was a welcomed one,
but prudence was a main part of her mind
mainly when she displayed such...

He who gets to play last
Beware of the fairy, she promises much:
"The battle is won when you take and you take"
But sometimes it is more a subtle touch
That winners choose and the fools forsake
The armies stood facing each other
Their eyes are filled with dread
For only one waits victory, for the other the cry
The king is dead!
And so begins the battle
The flanks and ranks advance
One army begins to slaughter many
The other makes it a dance
For greed is not a master
For greed is a blind fool
As one army goes down
It also gets...
"The battle is won when you take and you take"
But sometimes it is more a subtle touch
That winners choose and the fools forsake
The armies stood facing each other
Their eyes are filled with dread
For only one waits victory, for the other the cry
The king is dead!
And so begins the battle
The flanks and ranks advance
One army begins to slaughter many
The other makes it a dance
For greed is not a master
For greed is a blind fool
As one army goes down
It also gets...

Paradise
I captained a trip on a sailing ship
Across the rough and rolling seas
Looking for a place away from the race
Where I could do whatever I pleased
I passed an old man from the promised land
Who offered these words to the wise
It's not as they say if you go on that way
It's the same place in disguise
He said, "Paradise, well it ain't that nice
Go back from where you came
Cause unless you're blind you're gonna find
It's not better, Just more of the same"
I tried to sort as I sailed into port
All the things...
Across the rough and rolling seas
Looking for a place away from the race
Where I could do whatever I pleased
I passed an old man from the promised land
Who offered these words to the wise
It's not as they say if you go on that way
It's the same place in disguise
He said, "Paradise, well it ain't that nice
Go back from where you came
Cause unless you're blind you're gonna find
It's not better, Just more of the same"
I tried to sort as I sailed into port

Theourx theories are Green
Green isn't just
A color it's the
Color of watery fields thru
The morning hoir of
The summer months
In the early winter
It turns into an apple
Like the page of the
Office curtain
Through the
Threoux of the country
Valley in the ball of
Ocean City
Like last day of Friday
It is not colore for the
Pale but for the bright
Side of the just shewt
I write this on my
Wooden table
Well I like the
Green grey
But a light
To bring up mornings of
Hay sun
Summertime hymn ...

Deeper Things
Each first light, misty
opportunity disperses
our sleep into routine—
unveils the art of kaizen
We strive for perfection
in the everyday mundane—
brewing a pot of tea;
clearing our sacred space
asking not that others change
to suit our needs;
but, that we walk more patiently
understanding deeper things
~
