A poem

 PORTRAIT 

Oh beautiful dearie portrait,

That who created thee,

In boundless marvel; delight eternal!

Alas, not known

How graceful his fingers be!

To trace your curves in charm profuse

Like a verse in splendour aflame 

And in sparkles of colours abundant.

If with him I could meet,

Would bestow my mind's sky to him 

The soul in love, the pain in kiss off,

And the dismay and dread endless

May infuse to his spirit

To get another portrait anew!

NO HARM TO SERENE LOVE

You are mere a call away;

But I can not call you

You are so close to my heart;

But I can not invite you,

Since it would harm

The heavenly charm of my romance.

Though my heart wishes to beckon you,

Even in my sleep; I can not call you.

It is the truth ever be that

My spirit has been longing,

And I’ve been searching for you

Ever since the birth of my soul;

Before the cosmos itself formed!

And at last I find you

And you are only a call away;

But I can not appeal you,

Lest it would harm

The tranquil beauty of the serene love!

THE EBB AND FLOW

THE EBB AND FLOW

The guiding star is retreating

The shore is far beyond the horizon

And unseen; darkness thickens,

Storm and tides roaring,

No helping hands appear;

Nor does any ray of hope.

You are unaccompanied

And you yourself are the yacht

None to row, none at the wheel

You are alone, you are fainting!

Hark, you captain of vessel,

Behold and watch over keenly;

Where this storm unleashed from?

Where these surges rose from?

The ebb and gush, tides and gust

Are really not around you;

But within your turbulent heart!

Be calm; be attentive at the helm

All these commotion will die out.

TUMBLE-DOWN DREAM

TUMBLE-DOWN DREAM

You fondle over my heart,

Your arms around me, embracing

The fragrance from your hair, tantalizing

And your heartbeat, musical

Your whisper with lust,

All pour sweet honey in my soul

And into my depth it flows.

Your embrace, gentle and loving

Bloom around me

Like stars glitter in constellation.

I am elated to ecstasy and bliss

And the time is still

As sweet kisses shower

Into my lips; a thousand.

The cosmos is in silence!

Suddenly I’m awaken into severe reality

And I realize all in futile

I am engrossed and swirled

In the sweetest dream I ever have!

IMMENSELY RICH

IMMENSELY RICH

The morning sun shines for me

Birds warble and I rouse to see

Blossoms bloom in valleys,

Orchards bear fruits in plenty.

Comrades of mine outspread their hands

The bondage of relations, even strangers

All the same fill my empty cups.

Yet repudiation crushes the heart,

The silver girdle of love

Is still around my soul.

The whole cosmos offers backing

To romance beauty around

And it glitters my passionate being

Into heavens far beyond!

I am immensely rich!

LIKE SUNSHINE YOU ARE

You are like the daybreak

The dawn with newness always

Like sunbeams red and pastel

Scattering over fields; awaken

Everyone from slumber

To vibrant stretch of life.

You are like the noontime

With heat and wind together

With sweat and dust severe to bear

But showering lifeblood rich!

You are like the twilight

And like the night you figure,

Though with smiling stars

And dazzling galaxies

Still with the warmth of daylight

And with the hope of daybreak

And you are like the rainfall

Showering thanks to the sunlight

And like the moonshower you form

Reflecting sunbeams in silver

And again, yielding lifeblood,

You are like the rising sun.

You give me your life blood

And make my heart clean

Like the sunshine over mist

All with your precious love

Though nothing I’ve for you!

DOUBT NEVER

I trust not the blinking of stars

The sunbeams only as images I feel!

Though I see the moonlight silver

My mind sense doubtful

The nature’s gift I suspect

The flowers, butterflies

And even the song of the cuckoo

I doubt; the fragrance

From gardens, I feel nothing

The silver tides and cobalt ocean

And the sky in blue, I distrust

Days in bright, darkness of night,

I doubt; voyage of time too I disbelieve

Birth, death and life, I question.

Ground and paradise, I refer not

The great designer, I mind never

And even I am doubtful

Over my own soul’s being.

But doubt never; on your love!

And qualm nil I feel

In your marine eyes!
