| On the way to Heaven...Part 2 |
[Sep. 8th, 2006|01:00 pm] |
As I behold the promised land
My heart leaps with joy
My mind is blank
Drinking in the view
Gently rock me to sleep
Oh wind from the poseidon deep...
Hypnotic
Making
time
fly
From branch
to
branch
Till the heavens
start crying
Barefoot
Sand in between my toes
Come take me
Toss me
And throw me back
For I love this world too much
To leave it behind
A prison will be a prison
Even if disguised as a Ruby Red Palace
Made of blood red sand
Bringing back memories
of the glass palace
Shimmering
In lands far away
The fountain of youth
Can't help me
If you hold me prisoner
And kill my spirit
I can only look afar
At the harbor
Waiting for news
Of my Motherland
A majestic looking post
Standing tall
Against the ocean
Waiting
After dark
For fairy lights unbidden
The fairy lights come
Bringing with them barbs
Unbidden, but foreseen
They catch me dreaming
And I fall
Into the surf
Into the blue sea
The Old Man of the Mountains
waits by the path
Watching
Waiting for the One
To guide him
Across the heart of land
Meanwhile the brook rolls on
Tumbling
Changing shape
Not knowing that
The love of her life
Wont know her
Farewell sweet brook
You quenched my thirst
And my spirit
The things in your heart scared me
My breath nearly escaped
But now I am
On my way back
Take me home....
Country roads...

| On the way to heaven... |
[Aug. 31st, 2006|11:43 am] |
Destination: Ganpatipule
When: August 11-15, 2006
Route: the famous Bombay to Goa NH 17 route
On the way out of the madness that is Mumbai...
The Gods give us their blessings...
The lone tower...
Half finished dreams, half a view
I watch over the sleeping valley
What secrets do I hide in the mist and in my heart...
Call of the siren...
Rest your weary feet and eyes
Be mesmerized
Linger
Never leaving
Granite souls...
Chhota sa ghar hoga badalon ki chhaon mein...
Innocent, I smile
At the stranger
I know she captures my soul
But i want to see
I want to experience
I will fly away one day
Come on to the secret path
That leads to the garden of eden
Come join me while i toil
Making food for the gods
Come help me carry the nectar
That shall quench their insatiable thirst
At last I reach the final path
The one that shall lead me to what i seek
The foaming waters below
And the fertile earth beside
Weave a perilous path
I tarry...
I soak...
Will i fulfill my quest?

| To further Osama's cause... |
[Aug. 21st, 2006|10:57 am] |
Passengers are doing profiling of other passengers these days, deciding who can fly with them and who cannot according to a news report from The Daily Mail
Wonder how many such incidents it takes for a person to start believing in Osama's cause and cross over....
What is amazing is the number of highly educated and cultured people who think that such incidents are ok.
Their argument being "People do such things when they are afraid"..
What comes next? Special flights for all south asians?
Or maybe ships ahoy?
*Gah*

| Promise... |

There is a promise in the air
The wind beckons
Blowing, restless..
Leading the way
It speaks of
Places to be seen
Trails to be followed
Mountains to be climbed
It speaks of
The wind in my hair
Of azure blue seas
And white sands
It tells me about rains
Outside my window
A book in my hand
And a cup of tea
It promises warmth
A cozy hug
And some time away
From the madness
There is a promise in the air... |

| Flight... |
[Aug. 1st, 2006|05:44 pm] |
I am weary
Of living in a cocoon
Where the silk
Is not mine
I want to fly now
I want to make my own wings
Vein by vein
Feather by feather
Color by color
Gossamer light
To lift me
My spirits
I want to fly now
Who knows
I may fly into a wall
Or into the bright blue sky
Who knows
I want to fly now...
