Short Mara Poems

Shreds of oak tree in faded gold
Drift on my life-scenes, wishes untold.

Oh Mara
Goddess of evil
And illusion
Come sit
With me again
Your face
Although it changes,
Is always recognizable
You know that
I can not be fooled
I’ll take what you give me
And spin it into Gold...

Autumn shedding leaves
to eternity - my love
flowing back or forth

memories restored;
Amaranthus in my mind
exhibits colours

I'll be back next time -
nol-la-mara in my hand
from the southern world...

Hiding green eyes with lace

Her presence fills the room

Hauntingly alluring,

Hypnotizing the night

Hearts blinded by deceit

Held captive in charades.

Each ripe moment streams on
Through a jeweled prism--
And my being feels cleansed
To gush along the tints
Of polished dawn waking.

Alas! 'Tis the lionesses out to hunt 
And the Mara antelopes out of luck 
That trouble your vision, me friend. 
Come, let's quick to our tent, 
Lest the crouching queen, 
And the scheming king, 
Find us in the wind
Curious friend
Of the Mara
Come
Oh...

Follow me through this journey
There's no hurry
We are on God's time
And that's everlasting
So make peace
Set sail
And wash your cares away
In time, you will see the bay
It's full of serenity
That's all it needs to be
Follow me...

For love or money
  Mara told her mummy
I'll sell my soul 
  for purest gold

Her mummy shivered
  What have I raised
Mum well understood
  This was no phase

Sure enough
  Wedding bells soon rang
Jewels and gems in Mara's eyes ~
  Bill of Divorcement in hand...

Think we are humans. 
You are wrong.

Look at your palms. 
Count errors recorded there.

Do you see the ones against humans? 
Are they few?

Take a new stand now.
Why not register as lion citizen?

Which Game Park is your nation?
Serengeti, Maasai Mara, Queen Elizabeth?...

Dilbar jani ao cricket khailain
Mein karun balling tum batting
Har ball pay chaka maarna
Har ball pay out hona
Har ball pay tum haarna
Dilbar jani ao cricket khailain
Mein karun balling tum batting
Yara mara kar lo setting.
Note.Setting is the key to bond.
Lesson.Humility is must....

Though midnight long, I sail the winding glide
As this my instinct wakes for cherished time
For every moment gone I cannot rest
A promise sent, of love by the Westside.
Lost somewhere--- hands grip in prayer,divine
Beloved, find me upon fate’s request!

Being a recluse,
I have lost track of sun’s hues
and the flavor of meadows
in snow. Bronze doorknobs are cold,
frozen like my rusty, numb thoughts.

Must I remember
how they were slain? The wails come
to haunt those bleeding midnights,
when tears flooded a room
opening doors with shots of fire.

Catch me, mend me, break my fall
Can't take another step without trust
Won't accept sugar without substance

Catch me, mend me, break my fall
Guide the wind, smooth the storms
Make each day glorious

Catch me, mend me, break my fall
Promise to be there, stay true
Embrace me, keep the dust away

Catch me, mend me, break my fall
Make me yours
I don't want to be one of the fallen

Glide with me
down through blue coral mounds,
froth of your wavelets  bathes my shoulders

with a cloak
draping my moistened arms
as we glitter like translucent stars;

till notes float
where  cool pleasure ripples--
drenching hungry bodies on the grass

like a bend
spread in caves  of delight
rowing with gentle moans of one tide.

If your heart harbors Bodhi,
You can become a Buddha,
If your heart harbors purity,
You shall soar o'er wicked Mara,
If your heart abides by Sila,
You may master the Dharma,
And if you are met with dilemma,
Crave not and turn it into Prajna!

You smile, you grin and no one sees your sins

You laugh, you play with no one there at the end of the day

The masks we wear are uniquely prepared

To keep the world guessing and hide our despair

Black, white and all alike experience life's crushing blows

Young and old, we are all the same because we all fear the untold

At the end of the day, no one can say that we are not all equally equipped to live bold

I'm lost without an anchor
I'm alone in a deep blue sea
I'm surrounded by beauty
But I just cannot see
My world is very turbulent
Full of blessings, lessons and to be's
I strive for equilibrium
I strive to be free
There's a new me in the making
It's extraordinary to be taking
New journeys, new paths, new places far from my past
I'm excited, I'm afraid, I'm curious and I'm shaken
But I know what is promised
is just too good to let pass

The coda of mourning jays vibrates
In bittersweet tracks when daybreak scans
An almost whipping backdrop, hushed
By low warbles from birds’ paean;
Indistinct as dusty sketches—
Throaty on a lane of funeral’s last rites;
Where the hazily drawn view turns bland
Moistening wail of eyes with a muted song,
Tunes stale, while jays drone on the horizon.
