Rien à faire

Rien à faire

my only affair,

seated under the nameless tree

...not waiting for anyone, not even for me!

A pleasure at last I am nested here

nothing else to hope, nothing else to fear.

Thoughts that rest, still move the memory steps,

how naïve I had been with goings-on insane!

The world’s fast asleep, I am wide awake

it’s dreaming for someone through steps that are fake.

Leaves of love browned, are falling all around,

my bed of failings would turn them green, right on this ground.

Something dances inside me, singing all along

I think I know the steps, I think I know the song!

With hands wide open, I turn round and round,

all words then end my real me I found.

It tells me to banish hatred, worries, wars, anger

Until the time it’s over, rien à faire, rien à faire,

rien à faire,

the sole affair

in between

I was looking at a waterfall

Ceaselessly, at the white

Falling and falling

Oneness in the action...

So near was I,

Fresh!

I could smell the flow,

Feel the force.

After a while

my eyes and ears focused

the fall dressed as a fountain

rising and rising...

spreading its freshness

in the air

as its sole offer...

beyond a point

nothing!

Did I not look-see?

Yes, I did!

Then how did they marry!
in this blissful bridal symphony

The movement

only the movement stayed,

as a unique sound, a forbearance

the source and the destiny

in silence

alighted from the journey

Life!

I sensed

moving in between

hidden birth and death

Background

When you play your guitar

Stars blink, moon smiles

The sky shines in the dark

As you tune in from behind.

Seeing this my heart sings

With the ears mellow my eyes

Un voleur gets the miracle wings

In the melody, wanders and lies.

Relinquished

A year has gone by

I did nothing

My life went unsung

With it still,

In your trees

Birds chirped

Flowers bloomed

Said a charming hi

How kind is your world

In which this fallen tune

Is a part

How warm

Greif! For what

I know not

I rejoice in the space!

Moments welcome,

Pour in my flute,

Your sweetness

The constant

You are not afraid of my memory,

Your love is stable, constant.

When over will be my story,

Another journey will step in an instant.

Farther I go from you,

It is only my shift, distance.

You never moved in the blue,

Desert you wouldn’t ever your glance.

In my choice, this poem of a game

Recall ends only to begin

I win for a time, time and again

Fearless in the ramble, you lose only to win.

Twins

The golden lock

Peace is not your whiskey

It is not either your sex

It is that one little key

For most challenges complex!

You have a way with those pretty words,

For them, you end up in petty wars,

No matter how mighty you think you are

You kill your selves like powerful cowards!

Pray you sit with your selves and think,

So your willies and lusts are over for good

Peace as it were, is waiting to unlock and blink,

Winsome words tarrying to charm, just as they should!

The silver key

Moonlight unlocks

Embraces trees, grasses

Brooks, waterfalls, fountains

Unabated, illogical romance

In the music and the dance

Intoxication and love-making

Spreads through the leaves

Smiles, and flirts with the breeze.

The troubled world overlooks, blocks

Eye for an eye, its words, proverbs

Live in the dark,

Its frozen ears don’t listen

Cold eyes hiss, don’t see

The warmth in the air kissing

The quiet so clear, unworried and free

Missing it is for long, the silver key.

Survivor

I am a survivor

in the ways I float and meander

life is what I marry and choose

I am not dying to win,

nor succumb do I if I lose.

I have no worth,

no shame saying that aloud

away from the wing of words –

a plastic arena that’s bold and proud,

beholds my wind as meek

lapidates it with every unwilling brick

a game that clouds the unsure and the weak.

love's alive in my trip – in my warm world,

it would forever garland my ring,

without feud, skirmish

while people will kill for people's sake

with anger, rage, revenge – I deem as far too fake,

borders, fences, minds will never cease to please

glooms in the brain, never to heave a sigh...

yet peace is just as much at ease,

never to perish

lost or won, with or without worth as it might be

me and my journey, relaxed and breezy

will live through the knot, forever bond and tie.

Truth falls in place

Even in the gutter or litter

I smile, I will to be, I glitter

Even in pages of differences and deaths

I ask you to live, my whiff gives you breaths

Even in the hands wheezing wrath, mayhem

The raging flame inside wills to write a poem

This is the truth, truth it is, this is!

Even words out of place, long to feel the breeze...
