'Slippery When Wet!!!!'

Thoughts can be slippery, 
when acted upon,
we can stumble
and tumble. 
And our equilibrium is gone. 

Our peace is disturbed 
and our soul gets peturbed. 

Best to put a sign out,
when those thoughts materialize. 

'It's only the truth,
that I'm here to realize.'


The Truth of Truths.


Selfless love is the truth of truths. 
When we foster that love,
we become living proof, 
that selfless love,
is the fountain of youth. 

With that blissful love,
that we've fostered from within.  
We become living proof, 
that our selfless love,
is an infinite love
and our eternal truth.

7 Reasons to be Happy when it Rains.

1. Being a witness to natures abundance. 
2. Getting to drive through lots of puddles. 
3. Not having to mow the lawn. 
4. Seeing waterfalls where you never imagined to see waterfalls. 
5. Having an excuse to not do a lot. 
6. Having an excuse to eat continually. (all be it a very flimsy one.)
7. We get to witness nature playing to a different tune, a watery song that has us swoon. 




God's Graces.

Please let my love,
be a love that embraces. 

Please let my love,
love all that it faces. 

Please let my heart,
see it all, as God's graces.  





My Love.

Please let my life be shaped,
not by a fear of my love being rejected. But by a fear of dying,
having not expressed it. 

(I wrote this after a conversation with my Mum, who was expressing to me her regret at having not spent more time forming friendships. And less time cleaning the bathroom.)

It's Not a Race.



Don't sneak or creep, 
prance or shuffle.
Don't tiptoe, through life. 

Stride with purpose, 
walk with confidence, 
dance with joy, 
skip with laughter, 
trek around obstacles 
and bow with gratitude. 

Be diligent with your prep,
be brave with every step. 

Be patient and travel,
at a steady pace. 

Life is a journey,
ilife's not a race.

Lord Shiva


A halo of gold surrounds you,
as you sit silently, in your abode. 

Nothing comes close,
to the strength you invoke,
as you sit silently there on your own. 

Words can't touch the power,
that emanates from your being. 

No picture could capture the entirety, 
of that force, 
that's far beyond our seeing. 

Only a sound comes close to describing,
the silent fury, that lies dormant within. 

Only a sound could capture the beauty, 
that set this whole universe into a spin. 
 
It's the sound of your drum, 
that is beating
and it's beating in time with our hearts. 

It's vibration bought about this existence
and this vibration, holds nothing apart. 

Lord Shiva my words can't describe you,
they can't describe, 
what I'm feeling inside. 

Please awaken this Shakti within me,
so that I might experience more,
of your light.

Radical Change.


Why do we have these feelings of destruction? 
For our planet, 
for ourselves, 
for the trees
and for our health. 

Why do we harbour these feelings of destruction, 
for the very things, 
that are our only wealth?

Is it because we're greedy and shortsighted and in humane?

Are we misguided and ignorant
or are we just completely insane?

Why would we destroy the very things, that maintain us, 
that feed us and relieve us, 
that grow us and help. 

Nothing is permanent in this transient world.  

Every moment holds the possibility, 
for radical change. 

Just a thought can save lives
and help the planet revive. 

What thought could we have,
that would help us to grow 
and to change?

What thought could we have, 
that could promote a radical exchange?

An exchange of old values,
for some that are selfless and true. 

An exchange of old values,
for some that are well overdue. 

Let's not leave it too late,
to reverse our behavior. 

Let's choose health for our bodies
and health for our minds. 

Let's choose health for our nature
and one that embraces mankind. 

Longer Than a Glance.

I could love you in an instant, 
if luck were to grant me just one chance. 
A chance to hold you in my arms, 
for longer than a glance. 

You've such a sweet and fragile beauty
and it dances in your eyes. 
It also dances in my heart
and has it expanding for the skies. 

I could love you in an instant, 
if luck were to grant me just one chance. 
A chance to hold you in my arms, 
for longer than just a glance.
