What do you know what you are for me! VI

                          

 What do you know what you are for me!

     You are the bliss of my past

     the precious gift of god

     the jewel of the holocaust.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my loves virgin land

     I‘ll never walk on the quicksand

     of deceit and pretence

     you are my life’s sense and essence.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my Gita Bible

     you are my moral principle

     the serpent and the apple.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     When you fume in seething anger

     my world burns in flaming roar

     I run to pacify my heart’s core.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my bow and arrow

     you are my conch and flute

     I learn the difference of wide and narrow

     from your war –peace route.

 

What do you what you are for me!

     When I shall be ready to go

     I want you alone to bid me adieu

     when my breath ceases to flow

     I will enter only you and you.

What do you know what you are for me!

                                 V

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my long nights enemy

      thief of bonhomie

      moony night’s dream.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     your smile awakens my soul

     your words make me roll

     towards my goal.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my garden path

     soul’s benign worth

     and my divine wrath.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

      You are my victory garland

     you are my honour highland

     and my river bend.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

      You are my rosy love

      you are my cooing dove

      you are my deep life’s treasure trove.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my life’s stone wall

     my nightmares stall

     my beings end all.

What Do You Know What You Are For Me! IV

What Do You Know What You Are For Me! IV

All rivers seas and streams

dew drops on the dry grass

your shadows and images 

are all real to my senses

true and trustworthy always.

What do you know what you are for me!

Your worries and hurries

laughs and mood swings

provoke me to love you more

I fly on your wings.

What do you know what you are for me!

 I envy the road dust

on your feet

I rise to wipe your sweat

from your lovely feet.

What do you know what you are for me!

You are the last horizon

on the edges of ocean

you are the surge of passion

in my dry bones.

What do you know what you are for me!

I love the sheen in your eyes

the rose in your lips

when you stand apart as nature

my heart mirthfully leaps.

What do you know what you are for me!

  What Do You Know What You Are For Me!

                                        ( I )

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my morning star

     the glistening pearls on grass

     first rays of the rising sun.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     The primal wave on the shore

     the rising birds first twitter

     flamingoes soaring the sky.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     The first sight at temple door

     the first prayer of true love

     clashing cymbals and throbbing heart.

 

What do you know what you are to me!

     Beauty’s bold statement

     carnal energy and music of spheres

     the signature of holy fragrance.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     You are my soul’s otherself

     a naughty divine elf

     the pathway to salvation  

     the medium of reincarnation. 

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     My blood’s scarlet flow

     my lovelorn soul’s limpid flow

     my love’s gallows blind sacrifice.

 

What do you know what you are for me!

     The energy of my life breath

     the life blood of my health.

     the warmest lap for my death.

I Have To Say Something

 

Today I wish to say

I am full, complete

swelling with my wants

desires, frustrations

the ebb tide of my oceans

are spilling over the brim

of my suffocated soul.

 

If you ask me how I am full

then listen -

My sentences are complete

with speech rhythm

mind rhythm vast and full

overflowing with a lull.

My treasury of pain is full

untold unshared voided splendour

my splintered life's sorrow too

is brimming full.

 

What's not there in my world:

conflict between truth and falsehood

love and betrayal

and the joy of tears

in the endless night

of endless worries

my heart is filled

like full moon tide

when and how in the

full moon night

I never know...

I myself cannot count

the numerous zeroes

in my bank pass book.

 

Then why should I say

I have nothing

I have the hulla ballu

in my daily life

of issues and themes

beyond your dreams,

it's my own property

not stolen nor borrowed

my evenings are crowded

with friends and relatives

the evening dies in chats

and swollen faces.

 

This is life:

somewhere the river dries up

elsewhere the storm

sweeps away life

the heart cracks

and again joins

with the new fevicol of compromise.

The desert sands sway

in the aroma of the thorn flower.

 

My body have

spring and summer

a touch of snowing winter

I am the queen of seasons

unblemished offering for deities

How can I say then

I am incomplete, empty?

 

My emptiness is also full

like gods unseen tears

I am full in love and separation

if anything is incomplete

that is absolutely my own

there is no word for it

no language is yet invented

No regrets for all that.
