Union


Inspired by and as a tribute to Russell

Absolute and Independent
Beauty and truth realized
An Existence of abstractness
Above ideas, above desires

Peace of mind beautiful and lasting
An utter calmness prevailing
An experience to live and die for
A sweet reality forever after 

Weakness too has weaknesses
Limitation too has limitations
Austere and sublime it surely is
The Sense of Being more than Man 

Restart

After a break of few months, I'm posting again. When I started this blog, I thought, I would be able to write at least one poem per week. As I realize now, at best I can write one poem per month.  Will try to be more regular from now on. Hope you are enjoying this blog. 

Thank you

Coherence

Has to be so, for it is so real
  Vindicated and is aptly beautiful.
Coherent, consistent and elegant
  Harmony of elements extravagant.

Can't stop wondering if it is staged
  The ray falls where the eye is placed.
How so such order from randomness
  An eternal direction toward coldness.

An orchestra of composable elements
  Unfolds to the majestic invariant tunes.
Emerged new Being is surely coherent
  New tune synthesized -cycle permanent.

The Hero


You got cursed again and again
 In truest sense, they went in vain.
Killed you blessed by sages and gods
 Though his methods and goals at odds.

 Someone else's thumb you didn't need
   Only thing you knew was to give indeed.
 You had a shield that meant to protect
   That you gave to someone with a pretext.

Your teacher was sleeping on your lap
  Suffered the insect biting, saved his nap.
He woke up and gave something in return
   A cruel curse that you will forget the lesson.

In the name of Dharma they fought the war
 You had a word to keep and a trust to fight for.
They changed their ways and won the crown
  Generosity had gained synonym of the noun.

Life

We Live.
Despite horrors and threats,
Despite fears and uncertainties,
Despite weaknesses and limitations
In every man and woman,
We live, We flourish. We are Life.

Note

Hello

  This is my place to learn poetry. As with any other art, poetry needs practice to achieve perfection. Will try to post something like once in a week. Though I would not try to limit the subject of the poems, it'll mostly be reflections of things that happen in my life.  Hope you enjoy your stay here.

 Thank you for visiting.
