What was meant in skies
16 August 2017
Wayward steps
Take me through the rythms
Taut and learnt
Through message
Of teacher to the pupil
Wide eyed awe of new
Grant me holes
I will pierce through you
For lessons
To gush forth
Pupil and teacher awash
With nature’s lessons
Sing me ode
Engulf me darkness
Fray me stone
Lit alone
They practise tearing to hone
What was meant in skies
Reading of the poem:
Tower of Light – David Arkenstone
Redress of Human
8 March 2017
Pretender
Relieves the offals
Acting out
Recitals
The greatest comedy made
Unintended shade
They play grounds
Of staged inventions
Oscar to knave
Eyesight gave
On cowardly acting brave
For mind frame to pave
Changing Times
Caution to spaces
Between Core
And places
Where I teach my Self lessons
Redress of Human
Reading of the poem:
Virus – Björk
Vertebrae By Vertebrae – Björk
Triumph of a Heart – Björk
Reviving heartbeat
26 December 2016
Paint my lids
A streak of teardrop
On backdrop
Of laughter
Getting worse getting better
Changes unfettered
One o One
Metamorphosis
Lessons learnt
Pupils burnt
The eye a raging fire
Knowledge a pyre
Flame to grow
Prometheus dam
Holding back
Rivers rage
Wisdom for none to assuage
Aching of the sage
Shape my buds
To taste of honey
Flowing slow
From the flow
My chest now filled with the glow
Breaking point of seams
Riddled dreams
Orange tangerines
Bitter sweet
As I eat
Core and more through flowing streams
The memory gleams
Whistle low
Softening the blow
Drunken feet
Take to street
Where we strangers known will meet
Reviving heartbeat
Reading of the poem:
Letting Go – Nitin Sawhney
Homelands – Nitin Sawhney
Breathing Light – Nitin Sawhney
The beautiful gallows on Cape Canaveral
11 September 2016
The silence of rivers speaks to the tallest tree
Its roots of millennium touch the hollow of Earth
The lessons of tedium help the mind in rebirth
The passage that quivers leads through slices of me
Foregone are the shivers the new tides set me free
In moon the selenium spins promises of dearth
Enriched the uranium times renewing the firth
In history’s givers printed code of the Three
We gathered the shadows the precious mineral
The crowds lined with haters cobbled stones drew the way
The women like widows advanced our funeral
The beautiful gallows on Cape Canaveral
When yesterday’s craters wrought the guesses today
The blue wept like willows the despair general
Reading of the poem:
I let Love in – Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
To be by your Side – Nick Cave
Where the Wild Roses grow – Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – Kylie Minogue
Come undone
27 August 2016
Whirling Times
Teach us winds’ lessons
Old treasures
Forgotten
In chest with papers rotten
From centuries past
Unbroken
The spine a pillar
Houses built
Without ground
Scarce the love to go around
Intentions that wane
Hearts we shun
From webs they have spun
Searing wings
Come undone
In pursuit of happy nest
Place for bones to rest
Reading of the poem:
How can you mend a broken heart – Al Green
For the Good Time – Al Green
Let’s Stay Together – Al Green
Starlit rush
4 July 2016
Liquid gates
Open through the night
Ghostly hush
Starlit rush
Look into another world
Where stories unfurled
Spirit bound
Millenary oath
Smoky eyes
Bees and flies
Gravitate around me cloak
Rings of the lantern
Portals shut
The dream now dissolves
Back to ground
Inner growth
Only witness of lessons
Willingness to learn
Reading of the poem:
Stardance – Yakuro
Bringer of the light
16 February 2016
She sits calm
Pondering life’s ways
As Time flows
Like rivers
Our souls go through highs and lows
In dancing waters
Sometimes fast
Sometimes inching ants
We let rants
Broken past
Separate our hearts that beat
Quick admit defeat
The knowledge
It comes slow steady
Into minds
Waking souls
Of the chosen few ready
To live on the edge
He lived thrill
His words harsh mouth shrill
Skull beating
The heart numb
Errors of past repeating
His memory played dumb
We light skies
With crazed fireflies’ glow
Or dead stars
Throbbing lies
Bursting out of mind’s control
To clean mess takes hours
The clock sighs
As it counts seconds
Turning slow
Centuries
Two were to bear it the flame
Now one scurries lame
Phantom twin
Runs lone for the win
Ghostly foot
Joins the race
In pairs we face less disgrace
Battered time relay
He turns meek
His lessons now learnt
The soul burnt
Forged by change
He offers strong other cheek
Forgiveness not strange
Each other’s
Tutor and pupil
Lessons pour
The heart’s fill
Winning humility’s sight
Bringer of the light
Reading of the poem:
A big thank you to Hector (https://fromcoldtofire.wordpress.com/ ) for his introduction to Paolo Nutini
One Day – Paolo Nutini
Don’t let me down – Paolo Nutini
No other way – Paolo Nutini
Recover – Paolo Nutini
Scream (Funk my life up) – Paolo Nutini
Better man – Paolo Nutini
Extra sensitivity
26 November 2015
The nights carried me
Into realms of otherland
Where my twin soul dwelt
Daily wanderings
Living split lives in between
Waters and fires
Mother welcomed me
Scented jasmine in her hair
Evergreen her breath
Her fragrant solace
An Island within the grey
Laden with colours
I bared my chest’s ache
The weight of a million lives
Unloaded treasures
Mother grant me breadth
That I may carry with me
More than just the Three
She looked at me stern
The lessons of tomorrow
When will you then learn?
My chest fell silent
The burdened heaving display
Of all left behind
From the man the chest
From the Tree the bark’s essence
From the green the best
Her voice in my head
Statistics of the living
The morrows in lead
The journey in sight
Two worlds crouching side by side
Between dark and light
A life, just one more
I pleaded, voice a hoarse pitch
One pure to the core
Precious the morsel
A few lives parcelled in Time
Scars of my battle
Mother the remains
Scattered broken I will mend
Will heed not the pains
She frowned displeasure
Not every soul is treasure
Think wheat and the chaff
Hark my child your gift
Extra sensitivity
May be your worst curse
I heard her reproach
Ears that failed to comprehend
Numbers to encroach
Sorrow in my soul
I packed my Heart in bundle
Prepared for the trip

Forgive me Father
31 October 2015
.
I did not birth here
But from fall from your light’s Grace
On me it shower
.
–
All was by your will
Even sunflower burned bright
Your prophecy True
.
.
Seven stages played
We all took a role Being
On your blue carpet
.
.
Rebel son I stood
Hidden to world’s mortal Eye
In graceful attire
.
.
They call not my name
Yours taken in mere conceit
Clueless they rumble
.
.
Your seven veils taught
My lessons my battle scars
That Soul may redeem
.
.
Moth calls but the Flame
Yours taken again deceit
That I may crumble
.
.
Take me home Father
Knead into you Mother’s Heart
Show me your Mercy
.
.
Make it double One
That I may join undead
Take from me this Flesh
.
.
I give all to you
As I must die completely
Renew your Glory
.
.
Forgive me Father
For I have loved mortal flesh
Forsaking spirit
.
.
Bring me to morrows
Where only Love would subsist
Lost in your blue shades
.
A life is enough
12 August 2015
Forty seven years
Middle Ages’ lifetime felt
When life span bloomed less
Footsteps in water
Discovering way ahead
A life behind flowed
Writings on chalkboard
Memorising the lessons
Every minute earnt
Wisdom came timely
Heart expanding kept seizing
Opportunities
Reign in no Karma
Wandering spirit in Earth
I shall tread it once
A half floated by
And more wonders peeped yonder
From the green orchards
When you’ve lived it well
With heart’s petals blossoming
A life is enough
