This time too....



maugluk.photosight.ru

Well I know
this time too
shall pass
All that once 
held firm
will loosen
as it must.
Things will
look different
and life will
seem more
placid than what
it seems now
from the midstream
I will have moved
ashore, assured
Yet I must live
this moment
and hear that 
throb and that
pounding of the 
heart and be 
one with it and
let it be.

Edifices



geneoryx.photosight.ru

Something you cherish
and want to protect
and preserve
in this strong edifice;
Remember it will
outlast you
and be a burden
to your successors.
So think of what you 
are trying to protect.
Everything goes down
the pipe like rainwater;
every cup that you fill 
is meant to be 
emptied.
The flesh that is taut
today will hang
loose tomorrow.
So respect the freedom
that every moment
brings with it
and fly with it.

Discovery...1



geneoryx.photosight.ru

When you let
your guard down
your defences aside
your pretences flung away
you discover not
what you knew all along
but you discover
that you can face
the truth
for you are the 
truth of 
that moment
and the world
of that moment
and the joy
of that moment.
Discovery
is the act
of owning
up the beauty
of every moment.

What use luxuries?



rzachar.photosight.ru

Things remain the same
Meanings have changed
Mind is tired of playing
games with itself
playing hide and seek
Luxuries meant
to spin illusion
of well-being when
faced with naked
truth that Love
is for self
and Passion for 
the flesh.
Now it's so much
more fulfilling
to be at the source
of all images
and just to watch
pain dissolving
and names melting
into pure nothingness.

Surprised




maugluk.photosight.ru

What supports 
the support 
of life?
The soft murmur 
of the flowing water
or the hard
riverbed smoothened
by flows of centuries?
It's hard to tell.
The strong pillars 
of this edifice
come from the earth
that was scented
by the petals
of the faded flowers.
The spirit that toiled
to make the edifice
was enlivened by
the fragrance of beauty.
What supports life
is the life that lives 
in the life.

Work of art



shibinanadegda.photosight.ru

What's Art but
an expression 
of one's deepest 
yearnings?
Nature yearns 
for oneness
with its creation
and so splashes
itself all over
without a plan
and envelops me
in its beauty.
And here I am 
expressing myself
in muted notes
and muffled voices
and guarded steps
my deepest desire to
give birth to
all that is beauty
and truth
and strength. 

Humbling



A-Stisovyak.photosight.ru

It's the one that made
things hard and soft
living and inanimate
light and darkness
To be in its presence
every moment
is so humbling
as i feel so soft 
and tender inside
when I explore 
all that I am
in my flesh and blood
and in my awareness of
all that lies here 
and now
and beyond the hard 
rocks and the
beauty of sun's rays
that can be soft and warm
and also searing 
and scorching.
It's so humbling
to realise that
I too can be soft 
and yet strong.

Tied up in



annieparfi.photosight.ru

Not knowing when
you get tied up
in shadows of 
your glorious past
Every sinew of your success
turns into a rope
that ties you up
Every line of aesthetics
becomes 
anaesthesia to the present
Every gesture
that spoke of grace
now arrests the throb
of pain
Success turns
narcissistic 
before you know
what hit you.

Beyond time....2



s_sot.photosight.ru

I am with this moment
living it fully
amidst the noise and the din
of everyday living
breathing slowly
feeling every muscle
taking the breeze on my bare back
it caresses the nape of my neck
sensuously
and then suddenly
my mind goes back
to all those
sensuous touches
and
living
of the moment
slips out of
my hand
and they say -
Sands of Time.

Aplenty....7



nehoroshy.photosight.ru

Who can fathom
nature's secrets -
Rain forests
in one continent and
deserts stretch
across another!
I bask in her glory
for what she has blessed me 
with

My empathy ran 
far and wide
and got the better of me
in hiding Nature's gifts.
Before it was late
I saw
Nature did not 
hide its 
gifts.
