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

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Random Truths’

pull out the skis
in this scorching heat
that’s really just a tease

food that agrees
with vego lifestyle
is likely not Chinese

a ship on an open seas
people getting sea sick
by a little bit of breeze

when one has an expertise
in whichever profession
they can ask for higher fees

selection of green teas
drank around the world
loved by the Japanese

we need mature trees
oxygen from our air
plus pollinator bees

secrets locked without keys
passed down by devotees
universal truths like these

i still eat butter and cheese
until i deserve it fully
don’t call me vegan please

carpe diem
it’s not too late
the day let’s seize

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Overweight’

an update!
what we ate
could relate
to our fate

there has been a debate
that what is on the plate
illness can create

how could one translate
kind words of a mate
saying we carry extra weight

our appetite does dilate
we start to eat at eight
stop when it’s too late

exercise we sure hate
to wiggle like a fat bait
then meet the same fate

yet! it is not in us innate

I willfully state
it is not too late
new habits to dictate

the promise is great
to change our fate
we cannot wait

for a better date
or be too overweight
to fit the heavens gate

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Secret Mission’

life for a mission
without permission
missing a spark
stumbling in the dark

contentment with now
searching for the sacred how
pulling on the magic string
hooking up new crochet thing

what is the secret code
that will reveal the road
to self realize my potential
my life so quintessential

the best of me is yet to show
connecting to spirit in the flow
my yearning for the words of souls
now on the top of NY goals
