Going away

Few days of love

Few days of care

Never did I knew

In my face will they stare

Every little talk

And walks we could not walk

Birds singularly watched

Fears were all bare

Wish I could shelter

Made your life better

You’ere eager to sever tether 

Leaving all with no care

Now sometimes I just think

Look at clouds without a blink

Thoughts flowing without a kink

Life calmed after a flare

Manjari

Revelation

Today I had a revelation

Changed my focus of veneration

Attention from callous absence

Focus someone in imagination

Brought in life for certain reason

Crossing paths in different seasons

A tacit pact for no treason

A friend found loyal like a deacon

Find painful, unjust separation

Tormenting memories, no cessation

Highs and lows of emotional passion

Friendship found in new devotion

PS: it is hard to forget the people that you come across in life. And sometimes some people seem to just serve a purpose of bringing you together. 

For Lives to Come

Redwood Burls - life begining

People so many to choose from

Customs and rituals that egg you on

Trying to live life bestowed upon

lacking the one, maybe still unborn

Then soulmate suddenly dawns upon

Life takes a fresh turn from there on

Tumultuous turns turn gentle waves

Scorching sun, hat wide brimmed donned

Fate tries to take my trusty cane

To leave me wobble , make life inane

Can’t give that right, that power to none

For a person new in me is born

Leave one, leave all, take sun and moon

My soulmate remains with me in June

In this life and in lives to come

Soul created  for me, my only One
