MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Relax Into It’

the dark circles under the blue eyes
speak for years of sleep deprivation
now relax and breathe
our soul family is with us forever

the heart is where love resides
beyond the pulsing muscle
vibrant body is a safe haven
for the ever present spirit

raw music in the back of the head
the clarity as it comes through
the bold notes and trumpets
the unique symphony

be it our solace that all once ends
the end of the drama is here
the judgement day is in the past
stop the worry and relax into it

let the emotions burn then subside
little bit at a time there is no hurry
stay in the present moment
relieved there is still more to be

becoming new again

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Darkness Burst’

convoluted stories part of my life
a moment of silence then a roar
water gushing down the cheeks
all of a sudden burst of laughter
unexpected, unprepared, intense
something came out of a dark closet
transforming its dark corners
with its shine
calling it the light
delighted

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Newly Discovered’

safe not sorry, I write my story
sitting upright I feel quite alright
rhyming is not in anymore
I read somewhere tonight
when one tends to be a herbivore

so I scratch my head in disbelief
now I could not imagine
to become a writer of haiku
words pouring out too many a line

in meditation there is no time
let me get out of the controlling mind
and let the words write themselves
without further edit
let us see if
anyone actually read it

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Once’

once we see the light we cannot unsee it
once we push through we find the way
once we dream big small dreams merge into one
once we get into the flow the river vanishes
once we see through the drama life becomes fresh
once we draw on strength we find more of it available
once we develop new senses we become a new being
once time disappears the once becomes now
and now what
