Capturing some Pollens!!!

and so it started 

A pencil was sharpened 

A page was brought 

And a story was written

the page was pure 

had a smell of open grass

It held words of love 

Yet the world let it pass 

It remained in exile 

crumbling and getting weak

Yet it smelled like open grass 

attracting the occasional bees 

But one day a bee hovered longer

Just enough to catch the word dust jargon 

And ran it did in the ever changing winds 

just enough to sit in my homes garden!!!

Thoughts

 

Today I Find my Ancestral cookie!!!

Today I Find my Ancestral cookie!!!

Oh ancestral cookie spirit

You are right to forsake my wrist   

I did forget the legacy of our traditonal writs

No longer I can hear notes strung by the old guitarist

Our cookie round with craters

a remaining crunchy heaven for tasters

an ancient art perfected by only some workers

passed along generations, she the wealth, of my ancestors

salads and barbecues still loose charm

by the cookie made from my ancestor’s arm

but me a fool, has put our old cookie heritage at harm 

lost those sweet crunchy heartfelt notes in rush of the frozen farm

but today I unleash my husky and the cat,

the floor is sniffed where the cookie last sat

My hamster is crumb mining around the bed mat

while my parrot scrounges above at the roof hat

Is losing our ancestral cookie my destiny

they say devils in basement are always hungry

221B has also sent their sorry for this divine mystery

As I exhaust my wits and sources to cure this hovering evil melody

Have I lost myself

does no longer runs in me the old elf  

I dive in the remnant fragrances of the cookie herself

As Eureka eureka goes my parrot circling above the shelf

Lie bags of dough and nuts, oven and a recipe book in front of my hut

bake get up from your butt, the cookie spirit leaves her remaining wealth voices my guts!!!

I always wonder!!!

I always wonder!!!

i always wonder

Whether my body houses a soul

I always wonder 

Does that soul feels lonely at times

I always wonder

If it occasionally flies around

I always wonder

Whats the radius of my wandering soul

I always wonder

Whether my soul can reach back on my call

I always wonder

When it reaches back if its happier

I always wonder

Does my soul needs some friends to make it happy

I always wonder

Can what I write collect friends for my soul

I always wonder

Is the soul group just created have a purpose

I always wonder

Then what if these purposeful souls get too intermingled to come back

I always wonder

Maybe then I am not just my soul but parts of others too

I always wonder 

Maybe its yours also who are reading this

I always wonder 

Then who am I

We always wonder!!!

Thoughts of the ocean!!!

i want to wet every grain

i want to wave with each laugh

ripple with each gust   

And race with the sea gull’s calf 

generous with sea shells

miser with the fishermen’s trap

I play with all the children castles And cover your feet marks in a wrap 

I roar with the moon

stay motionless as the hour clock

bubble with the sight of love

And tear with music of the wise flock

an open naked book

your wavy smiles makes my water choke

remember my thoughts

my pages are wet for you to soak!!!

as they talk as the shimmering light!!!

my ears follow the vibrating light of their voice

a mixture of all known dance forms

my sprit kindles as my eyes jingle

its a beautiful shimmer 

auroras in the sky, crystals in the cave 

my ears follow the vibrating light of their voice 

an amalgam of all emotions

their eyes projecting the sails 

its a soothing strong wind

lotus petals in the air, windmills on the hill

their talk the light on water

their talk the light on snow

its a passion of the everlasting fire

its a commitment of the climbing spider

as they talk as the shimmering light!!!

but i am at loss of words by a jute grocery bag held by two!!!

down the street pavement

a mother holds her jute bag of groceries 

slightly heavy to totter slowly

the child reaches a stirrup from her palm 

no noise, no air rush

a jute grocery bag held by two

impression on skin slightly erased

they amble down the street pavement

a grocery bag becoming a fulcrum

for a bond stronger than those cold factory welds

the jute bag inherits a pure soul today

than what they say reside in the streets of the holy cities

some say its a jute grocery bag held by two

but i am at loss of words!!!
