Mindless Banter
Strings of invisible ribbons tie us to an ancient path of mindless banter…
rounded pebbles and cool water underneath our feet…
splashing us from echoes of swirls…
and carved scriptures and feathered inked dipped tips…
fog and sanity,
lost in the unknown places of the mind.

Thank you all for sharing your wonderful work!
Translation
For that moment…
you stopped listening,
to the ‘foreign’ words,
coming out the mouth…
and you paid attention,
to the eyes…
and those words,
landed on your soul…
crystal clear,
without translation.
* this piece was inspired by all the children we often get to see on TV in the commercials (sick kids or unicef) we sometimes tend to turn away from…but their eyes say it all. And my heart goes out to them.
Greeting Summer
You ran bare-feet to greet it at the door,
like you had many times before,
through the barren streams and moors,
forgetting your daily chores…
with the breeze blowing your hair wild,
you ran with the inner child,
in your heart…
you ran bare-feet to greet summer at the door,
of spring.

Happy Friday!
Those mornings when your eyes refuse to open,
and you wish it was the weekend…
and you wake up with with sigh,
thinking you are just a day shy,
but as the sun hits your face,
you are ready to embrace,
the alluring ‘almost’ of Friday,
happy.
Summer warmth frees your heart…
Embracing sunset,
Feet on cool grey sand,
Waves washing over sandcastles,
Carefree thoughts,
Crooked pathways,
Scented lilacs,
Drifting memories…
Summer Warmth,
Frees your heart.
Illusive
You lose your mind,
to the illusive darkness,
of yesterday.

Glimmer
The faint hue of red splatters over the sky,
as the sun says its silent goodbye,
and keeps its promise to meet the night,
somewhere between the serene twilight,
and I catch this glimmer of hope,
in your eyes.
Liberation of the mind
In the darkest of night,
when the stars were hard to find…
I found,
my liberated mind…
free in the dark,
and free in the light…
free to jump,
to reach new heights….
free to cry,
and free to smile…
and free,
to ponder for a while….
the love I hold for you,
in this liberated mind.
