Methinks it does good for certitude

Methinks  it  does   good  for   certitude,
Singing   and   merry   and  do  good
Be  a  good  Samaritan   always;
Be  it   Yule  or  New  Year,
“Be  his  merry ton”
Ringing     and   dancing;
Song  bird  in my balcony
“Craketh  a  merrie   note”                           
Methinks  it  does  good  for  certitude.
Wortes  to  the pot – my  garden 
Carries   a lot,  cure   and   serendipity
Methinks  it  does  good   for certitude.

haiku

1) speedy  gale
 arresting   many  a  pulse
  stopover

2) branch falling
  creates  a  space  for   balcony
   gluttonous    View

3)  on  the  blade 
  Of  grass  sprout   many  a
  Strong  write

4)  the wind blasts
       staying   only  the  quill
          steady

5)    carrying    tiny   pot
    of  chronicles   spiraling  
     on her  head

6)  silk  saris  hiding
  millions  of  living  deaths

     hot   and  dry

He is a good shepherd

He   is  a   good  shepherd

He  is  a  good  shepherd 
Who will not  abandon the  distressed,
Lost  and   long forgotten, even if  snows
Heavy  and  thick  and  he is  a good
Shepherd  who  searches pastures   anew.

But   a   lamb  from  afar   woefully  wails
butcher  and   shepherd  are the same.
I see it    run   and  bask   behind  a   mound
Innocent  and  scared; searches  for  its  clan.
A good  shepherd  protects  it now.

Not  only  the  sheep, lamb  and   flock,
The  shepherd  and   cowherd and  us,
The mortals in the  inhumane   coil,
We  all  run   the  race  under  the gates
Of  Heaven, cross  and    jump our
“Stubbled  grass”  and  mud.

He  protects  us all  ever   and  anon,
If only  cling  to   His   heel   and   Mercy.

haiku

          uprooting 
  speedy  gale not    menace
  but   a   mentor.

 Modified :
  dreadful  gale
  a  club on its  way

 trees   uprooted.


fierce  gale
angry  tap

Ancient thread of our Roots ( Guardian)

Ancient    thread  of  our  roots   (Guardian)

We   all  return  to it,
Return  to  what, the  recurrent
Question   and   answer
 Like  spread cotton  seeds.
 A  silent  return,   as  if  
  a   resurrection  or resignation
To  the  roots  of  ancient  past
Of  primordial  wish, innocence,
Perpetuation   and   progeny;
Until  our   bodies  are  covered
With  the  homespun   thread of
Solidarity, flag  nodding   farewell
To  another   region. Muscular
Lover  drawn  and  submerged
to the  soil.

In my selfsame room

          In  my  selfsame  room

In  selfsame room of
my  choice   and  compact  style;
a  room  of  my own   Like   and  Make,
many  voices  creep in   like  jamboree
to  tune  me  to their    enticing  notes ;
it  is  a    room of  brick  and  mortar,
may  not  be  a    room of permanence,
but  methinks  ambiance  of permanence
of special  quality  prevails there.
Time  the  healer, Time  the  walker,
Time  the preacher, waiter ,tester, teaser
All  walk through  today the  Time
Silencer  and  abreast  frozen tongue.

Frozen Times

                      Frozen  Times.
   Sit  in  the pop corn  show
   Revel  at   the  tasteful  beauty
 Orderly  arranged  in  colorful  jars;
 Your  jerkin covers  you in
  Un forsaking  fidelity.
 Your   green  memory 
 In  its  rehearsal  plods
through weary  days,
 Prolongs   with you.
We    climb   through  hard
Blocks   of  multi   layers  of
Iceberg   of  our   times;
These  are  frozen   avenues.
In  the   frozen  times 
in the  congealed  hearts
our plight  of  Karma
hides  unable  to  take
its  wings  of  flight.
we  are in  frozen days.

In the midst of my writing


In  the  midst of  my   avid  writing,
Dictated  by  My   agile tap of
 Notes, Muse and  silent voice,
In  the midst of     Life,
 In the process of my dreams
 and  delving  deep into  the
  mysteries of   Nature,
  be it  a  wolf  in the paper
  be it an animal  with growl
 I dwell  in the “delicious dizziness”
 Of  my writing  oeuvre.
 My  wolf is  a  passive  spectator.
 I let  him come.
