Sacred

When I meditate
It is a sacred bonding
Between God and me.

May peace reign

India awaits judgement
on an issue that has ripped the harmony
and polarised communities into ghettos.
Though the judgement ostensibly is
About a land dispute,
The sentiments that are attached
Are worrisome.
The abstract issue of religiosity
May raise its head and claim lives
to justify history.
Let us believe in Man first,
Then God.

Please visit any Indian newspaper site or click here to understand what am referring to.

.....after

And then, it is done
I slip into nothingness
It is sheer Bliss

An appeal

Religious rituals
Take pride of place
While God is hidden
In the holy books and temples.
Religion, just a means,
Has become an end to achieve.
Man is lost
somewhere in the fight,
to decide whose God is better.
A public manifestation
Of one’s private conversation
with God, leads to mayhem.
Maintain its sacred privacy.

Appreciation

Appreciation
is a gesture that gladdens
and brightens the day

Forever

The feeling of emptiness
Reminds of the space that is yours.
A sombre silence fills it now
But the moment I enter the space
Memories jostle for attention
Each one so unique
Of a time we spent together
And of times we spent apart.
I have moved on
so has the world
But you remain.

Apparition

Aromas wafting
From the delicate blooming
Beauty emerges

Time to evolve

Floods and droughts are the order of the day
while Death by Disease haunts mankind
Greed for power ignites hatred
invoking the spirit of God
who is now an innocent bystander.
The time has come
For the emergence of a new ism
As Man flounders in freedom
Unable to live and let live.
Cynicism rules.

Amsterdam

We landed in Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport on a cold, rainy, windy afternoon.  Not a very welcome sign but we soon realised that the weather ...
