After all.......iv

panskaya.photosight.ru

What's the point of looking
back
when so much lies ahead
and in me?
What's the point of ruminating
over broken glass
shattered dreams
cracked mirrors
stabs in the back?
They are meant to be.
I am with me in this moment
and I am with this moment 
in me and
I am with you in this communion
and I am with communion in you
at this moment
and that's enough
for nothing needs to be 
done
said
thought
imagined.

Only the living and the life.

After all......iii

Those moments of bliss
took me in
and in
and further in
and now after all
is said and done
I want to savour
every moment of
that blissful eternity
and simply dissolve 
into it -
no more struggles
no more entanglements
and no more disappointments.
All this love
helps me discover
and re-form myself
in contentment.

After all ......ii

They said it was
the usual stuff -
betrayals, desertions
hurts and denials,
Each one was a lifetime
of misery, unhealing wounds
until I chose to take a new birth.
All that drained out 
thoroughly 
leaving only the strength
in my cells
and the light in my eyes
and the ears that listen
to the music in every heartbeat.
After all I am living.

There was light....i

romanmordashev.photosight.ru

Chirping woke me up
and it was still outside
dawn yet to break
Stepping out
to wrap myself
in the exhilarating breeze
I realized 
it was still dark:
that darkness before
the soul soars high
above passions
that darkness
in which you guard
your sacred wishes
waiting patiently;
and just as I chose to 
retrace my steps
there was light
from the dawn break.

After all

yaga.photosight.ru

After all was said
and achieved
and celebrated
there remains
the notion
of a void:
what next?
what more to life?
what more from life?
Then it hits you
the hollowness of the question.
Don't add living to life
Just cancel out the notion
of the life there.
It's here and now
and you are living
and that's all.

Aplenty 4

Photographer: Okinin, photodom.com

To deal with this
incredible opulence
of beauty 
I turn to 
nature:
the trees whisper
their secrets to me -
take, not grab
spread, not stamp
grow, not groan
and share,but not shear.
I enjoy the abundance
and not splash it
and love the 
attention that I get
knowing it will
last only so long
but it's the moment
and the exhilaration
that would belong 
to someone else 
after me.  
Beauty is indestructible.

Aplenty 3

In fullness of time
everything ripens
to fruition
and everything blooms
to perfection.
I have ripened in flesh
and bloomed in
my mind
and now find
it so tricky
to contain it within.
I just want to flow
and overflow
and give
and unite
with all that is inviting 
and appealing
in this vastness of beauty
and truth.

Softness 5

Treading softly
not to disturb 
the grass
that rustles softly 
in the breeze
dawn and dusk;
I recall so many 
dawns that promised
softness of life
and rustled by
while I busied 
myself in the bustle
and saved my 
soul in castles 
of safety.
Stepping out 
now with 
nothing to protect
except my self
by my self
I at once
am in touch 
with all that 
fertile land
in front 
and inside
softly.

In Love with Life 7

yaga.photosight.ru

So much of the blue ocean and more
so much of the open sky and more
so much of the effervescence of the waves and more
I am breathing free
and the breath is freeing me
of all my delusions and miseries
- all washed and then swallowed 
by the great ocean of love:
I love this life 
and to be living is bliss.

Softness 4

yaga.photosight.ru

The sun smiles 
softly
the sea murmurs
softly
The waves splash
softly
I murmur to 
my soul
- calm & ease
quietly loosen
the knots carried and kept
hidden
and from somewhere
deep down
in the softness of my flesh
there is a hint
of a smile
grace and 
bliss.......

Softness 3

And when I saw the 
incredible richness
of all life surrounding
me
I wondered how
I will hold all this in
my slender mortal frame -
softness then whispered
to me:
you aren't a container
you are beauty
just take in all that you care for
and let it melt inside you and 
become a part of you
and let it flow 
and let it enrich 
all that you care for
and love.
Let love blossom.

Softness 2

The soft light
whispers secrets of
its own soul:
every moment stretches
into eternity
so pay attention to the continuity
of that moment and this moment
here and now
with all your cells
and let not temptations
bother you
There is beauty incomparable
in the softness of light
touch yourself
and touch it and let it spread
inside you and outside you
and let it dissolve with you.

Softness 1

sergio800.photosight.ru

A quiet pause
after much adulation
adoration and
admiration;
I felt it needed
to be kept aside
lest it burdened 
and trapped
my spontaneous flow;
to simply touch 
the softness of 
all things soulful
and savour its
timeless beauty;
I think softness
deserves all attention
from all my senses.

Another World 2

sanji-hit.photosight.ru

Insouciance
after days of deprivation - 
we met & merged
into that unknown realm 
of dissolution;
Among many things
I left behind
and let go 
was my old 
weatherbeaten
soul,
which had become 
a robe
to cover my nakedness:
desires denied
impulse ignored
yearnings yanked off
and love locked.
And now is this
another world 
right here
inside me and outside
and its growing to 
envelope the whole universe.
and it's another me

Another world 1

sanji-hit.photosight.ru

Dreaming of another world
in which 
dreams turn into 
reality
instantly;
no dark thoughts
no evil designs
no temptations suppressed
and no self destructive impulses.
I fly on the wings of love
seeing green fields below
golden harvests of health
harmony
and happiness
rivers of affections
valleys of tranquility
.....and then I dream 
of wakefulness!

Tempest 1

lEgor.photosight,ru

Not that this is the first time
but it's peculiar that I got
caught in this tempest
- a making of mine;
Passions raged almost
vengefully
I had to trample upon 
the world;
then it rained and it 
dawned -
a morning of futility;
exhaustion of dealing
with the worldly and
the wicked;
and then the tempest played 
on my mindscreen
and I am now gathering
all those pieces of mine
- discovering how precious.
