Days are smiling brightly in cadence of ankle-bells;
With a garland of rays, timely comes the Charioteer.
Flower buds, unblown and sleepless,
Breath bated, yearn sincerely to get near.
As often as I think that far away go I,
He who always binds through love-ties,
In my ears He speaks: "Listen to songs aplenty:
Everybody, on the light, they beam.
"Which place is remote? Nobody is distant;
All remain mixed with cognition's ocean.
In a unit consciousness latent is that acquaintance;
It drifts in the midst of ecstatic reverie."

When I'm blue
Monday, May 30, 2022
An end to the charade
In the courtyard of form's sea,
You were consequential, oh the Unembodied.
With rhythm and melody, taking as family,
You attracted everybody.
With star after star the heavens are filled;
The air blows sweet and gentle.
The kash sways neath a mild wind,
Its gray-white wings extending.
Knowing You, it's not simple;
Love alone attains acquaintance.
Too-much-talk remains muted,
When finding You near.

This wretched beast
Why did You hold me dear?
I've no merit...
I've no merit, I've no wisdom either...
What then did You see!
You granted the sweetness of sympathy;
You wakened understanding.
You gave success, You gave prosperity;
For I had been lonesome and weak.
You brought into a human body;
Onto thought You lacquered honey.
Then, a desire stirred for getting,
I just went and forgot Thee.

When the fair winds blow
You appeared
In my grove at this tardy hour, inauspicious.
Flowers mine all have started dropping;
Petals go on withering in the dust.
When there had been blossoms in the garden,
It had been awash with colored sweetness.
Then You came not, You deemed it improper;
Understanding Your game, difficult it was.
Once more will my flowers bloom;
Will new color and perfume rise in what is without hue?
Will my love-tree get infused with green shoots;
Oh won't You come to a bright Elysium?

The genuine You
In this same fount of effulgence,
To make bathe, oh Who came?
With a gold crown on Your pate,
On a flower garden You applied paint.
Having met, I think I know, I distinguish,
The respected Gentleman, love's representative.
To scatter motley mental states,
Arrows You loosed from a rainbow.
When there were no hues, no tints,
This beauty, where had it been hid?
And why indeed this Man of light–
Life You filled through color's flambeau.

By virtue of Your light
Crossing the dark sea today,
Who are You that came, oh Psyche's Enchanter.
I am unfamiliar with You; Yourself I know not–
But I know You possess attributes resplendent.
O'er the course of ages hopeful I'd been waiting,
Neath light and darkness, with everything revealed...
But You appeared not beside me, not by any means,
Oh the Moon, with Your heady luster.
To the extent of love, I have yearned for Thee,
You of bygone days, for the tune jangling...
Life's lantern, on its lampstand set a-blazing
To apprehend You time and again.

It just won't work
Holding You in high esteem
On the sky of my psyche,
Such ambrosia was exuded and came falling,
Profusely and privately.
I imagined: Ignoring, I'll go on;
I'll find peace in delusion.
But I saw there happens not oblivion
With this same thought echoing.
You exist, I exist–
All else I've forgotten;
There's no third one, any other,
With attraction of a honeyed quality.
At my heart's place hard-to-reach,
With ringing of cognition You are there;
Please come down into my thinking,
Contemplation's meditation-seat.
