“Oh, he’s cute…” “Just that?” “Or what?” “I’m lucky enough to live with the most evolved souls in the universe. They also give me a filter to assess other beings.” “That sounds interesting! How?” “The research and its results will be more than interesting to you. I can only live with a person who understands … Continue reading Understanding

Changing vision …..by Zelda Rene
Time steals my eyes as
Ageing loudly ticks months, years
(If ears miss, don’t hear)
Clarity of vision dims
Physical sights swim…submerge
~
Adjustments tire…yet
Unexpected treasures gleam
Heart’s blindness redeemed
Spiritual sight grows clearer
Sterling vista, nearer Home

See the whole wide truth ……by Lady Lee
Don’t be frightened to see the whole wide truth
Not by denial or closing one eye
Shine a light on you child, enjoy your youth
Things happen for a reason, don’t know why
So just enjoy the ride for miles and miles
Be enlightened come what may, don’t be shy
Sometimes high, sometimes low, accept trials
Have to reconcile all contradictions
With some stat, we’d do it with own styles
We’re entitled to live, that’s our mission
Just don’t be rude and cause pain to others
We all have different definitions
Open our eyes and see all life’s wonders
Even if the journey’s not that smooth
See all the flaws, cultures and colours
We’re only human, we don’t know the truth
We could only try but then we could sigh
The right way or not, and then we could choose
So in the end it’s up to us to choose

A wise decision ….. by Larry
‘
‘Everyone’s life has a
Bunch of knots,’
Deasy told Brennan.
‘Smart fellow chooses
His knots wisely.’
‘Besides which,’ Brennan replied,
‘He has to be wary of
Knots others try to
Foist upon him.
Those are never the
Right ones.
They can never
Be untied.’
threads tied on branches of a revered tree promise wish fulfilment the tree awaits return of seekers to untie knots In gratitude the tree awaits disentanglement to sort out good from bad It has given away non-judgementally A need to be fair unfulfilled ….. https://dversepoets.com/2021/03/22/quadrille-124/

ऑंखें बंद कर लूँ तो भी तू नज़र आता है
टूटे आईना-ए-अना में तू नज़र आता है
हुई मुद्दत हमें तेरा विसाल किये हुए
फिर भी हर कल्पना में तू नज़र आता है
कोई हमसे पूछे क्या मज़ा है जलने में
परवाना हूँ शमा में तू नज़र आता है
कभी तो तू छत पर नज़र आ ज़ालिम
यूँ तो चन्द्रमा में तू नज़र आता है
मिलता है हर शख़्स देने तसल्ली अमित
या हर सांत्वना में तू नज़र आता है
