FOR MY MOTHER


Let today be the best so far
Today for which we appreciate the breasts we suckled
A bosom upon which we nestled our head when depressed
Into arms we are cuddled when we are sick
She is a gem, who gives us priceless gift of love
Packaged in life we live as offsprings of the earth
While in humble steps we ply the path of life
Even our shortcomings she helps to correct
Today I show my dearest love
For my mama for only and only for her it is due.

STRONG MEN NOT YET IN CRADLE

From the cradle, in cooing and cuddle
Do the strong men learn the infant heart
Farther from the rumble and beat of life full of air
Yet in distress does the labour of breath come
The humble in heart learn to live from simple to great
For if the things of the world are too many
Weighty upon heavy mind
Thus the heart burn of its well-being
As the soul, with sighs and songs, reduce to the ashes it come from
For passion in dreams awaken the sleeping best of us
And in faith with hope trailing do we find company
On this lone path pressed from side to side
The distractions of the age of our days
Divided between fragrance and frailty of failed labour of our bleeding palms
As fragments of days of old best lived
In turmoil and joy as mixed feeling
Fueling our very self with anger against life
Which have reduce into wintry eve
With the warm wind with the noon forgone
Forbidden from the moment past spent

MY LAST THOUGHT.

My last thought shall echo through eternity
Not in vain shall my earthly valour be
Rather in quest does it vanquished
But by this the great heart of mine shall be
Between sighs and pants though strive through
Even if all surrender while faith seemed to fail
 But to my bosom hold tight,
Like my very life, the very thought of this moment esteem

Though the presence may never be regained
Yet the tomorrow is the only consolation we get
To correct the errors of the vain days spent
And today as a link to generations stringed to our loins,
Shall be the memory scripted in this last thought
Share with the time at hand.

The voice from the past calling home
Calling to the generations of the age yet to be
Telling the stories of valiant heroes
Through the resonance of ancient time
Vibrating in this bones of my youth
And in conduct and gesture thus the silent sounds of our forefathers echoes
Through my innocent lips
Made of clay yet glitter in wit
But all said and done, in my last thought shall my life be read
As I course from this stream of reality
Beyond this footfall reduce into solitude from this noise of living
But If the good God grant me the last wish as an appendage to this failing moment
 My last thought shall for nothing but you.

COMMON TEMPTATION

Dangle and dangle the ancient fruit
An apple rich in gracious red
Before the feeble eyes lost
Even in the fleshly skull

Though lie on the glorious bed of roses
The sigh from the plaint passage lure
Across the dark stream she beckons
With batting lashes with her sensual groan accompanied
To her lustful bosom
Sweat in fragrance, yet heaving with damnation
For the lost youth
With bright future to be destroyed by momentary pleasure
In this common temptation.

THE WINTRY MORNING RISE


Could we ride together
When the blazing sun rode on the sultry wind
Or on the blue sky that ember
To glow the morning abreast wintry season
And these cold autumn leaves
Blessed and endowed with pleasant colours
Shed of tree which have stood time
But to wither or die
Yet  nourished the earth with its riche fibers
And waft and lay like Assyrian carpet
Upon a royal path
Which wandered through the woods
Stripping naked by cold weather
When the earth was rich in green or with colours floral be
In this wintry morning rise.

LIFE, A BLESSING FOR THE SOULS OF MEN

Slow and steady the stable feet walk
Sigh and sigh the lung does
Pant, oh pant, the fainting heart
Broken and bled by the time that hurt
So, harsh the sight of the feeble eyes
With tears so hard to shed
Hot upon the lids that flutter 
Because of the dangerous wind that pierce
Prickle the irises thus enough of life has seen
Enough, oh, enough of what sorrow and joy blend
Blend together for the heart broken but mended in its shattered form it be
However think of what future hide from innocent eyes
Wandering the earth with bleeding soles
Crushed and pressed by ceaseless storm

Nonetheless, blessed is the head through briars and thorns wear the crown
Stellar crown studded with bright colours
The man that conquer
The world of struggle and pain
The tiny feet with wintery lips to firstly bear
With foremost shrilling cry
Pleasant for adult winsome smile of expectant eyes
For the patter of tiny feet that crawl,
Life is a blessing for the souls of men.

AFTERLIFE

I walk my days  between sleeps,
Rest my burning bosom between the walks of the earth
Yet in my gasp, even though while life is not in my grasp,
I witness with heaven and the earth the dawn dissolve through the sun into dusk,
All coming forth with the same message:
‘Vanity! Vanity! Vanity, the walk of this earth!’
Maybe, when all in this cycle of existence narrow down into insignificant closure
Even in fairness of sounds and sight of reality experienced,
With the best of us well explored,
At the celestial call
My soul shall spring forth, however,
Not just in the life well spent nor grandeur of moments shared
Nor the fragrance of my mortal experience,
But as sure as my very breath loaned me from above,
Of glorious afterlife.
