MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘No Heat’

warmth emitted by a heater
legs in woolen socks
steaming hot cereal drink
in a thermo cup

three layers of tops
keeping the body toasty
surviving the elements
with no central heating

peeking outside the door
kids in shorts and Ts
playing around the pool
water almost frozen

different comfort zone
when one was a child
no weather forecast
could break the deal

funny part of aging
the heart keeps warm
cold hands and feet
having the chi on ice

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘July Down Under’

holiday spirit
winter in the sky
seasonal festivities
christmas in july

vego feast making
knife very sharp
tiny cookies baking
let’s live the carp

snowflakes falling
on green grass
roos hop around
lake turned into glass

local markets
full of food
chopping boards
made out of wood

beanies and gloves
crochet socks
everyone loves
presents box

small or large
nobody cares
without charge
who compares

Poem ‘July Down Under’ read by the author.

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Unresolved’

looking for solutions
to heal the heart
vibrant sound bath
returns me on my path

chanting beads
relaxing sounds
watch the flame
peace will come

forgiven to all
except myself
still too hard
on this one

obsessed with
the inner voice
holding the reins
playing old beliefs

immersed in silence
sitting in stillness
finding a solace
in each breath

further more
searching
for the wisdom
of the sages

into infinity

Poem ‘Unresolved’ read by the author.

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Be Who You Are’

mediocre life
from job to bed
selling your soul
raise the bar

load a camel
cross a desert
refuge in an oasis
who needs a car

fragrant spices
lamps and oils
awaiting at an
exotic bazaar

coins and trinkets
for a rainy day
collected and stored
in a glass jar

find your guru
under the bodhi tree
who do you think
you are

search on google
still not sure
sit in meditation
go beyond far

a chair or a bed
get inside your head
undergo an operation
without any scar

kundalini rising
if you have no clue
do your research
it’s rather bizarre

convincing as real
conscious energy
is what we are
god and a superstar
