Help Australia

Seems words have spurred
of the stories i read
the characters i drew
how probable and true

the rocks and marshes
futile with bushes dancing
lone warrior in the battle
no armour only cattle

the leaks of light
the hues and cry
the watery eyes
the smoky tongue

Burning furs
Sight Blurs
Hug a tree
Or die free

I do pray
until the mercy
slight near the poles
to save our souls

Hourglass

Lately, I realised that we weren't the same sand on the beach but the trickling sand in an hourglass, estranged by time.

The Mystical Wand

I wish I could stop you
From using the cylindrical paper
That stands between your fingers
With pride ; to be tapered
That sanguine tip
Gives me a wave of grumpiness
Evoking a poignant feeling
With no known healing
I wish I could save you
From the silent ember
That settles in your chamber
Ebbing your strength
Of inhaling length
I wish I could stop you,
I wish I could save you!

Meteors

Wishing stars are somewhere falling by
While side by side we lie;
Twinkling or winking they may wry
While we take a relieving sigh.

Mysterious Drag

I dont know why I circle you,
I dont know who hauls better
Each day I wane for you,
Hoping never to see you again
But what's this connection
Which revives me anew...

Freefall

Walking through the silent nights
With stillness of city wind
Sneaking through the illuminating lights
With thoughts in my mind

To escape from something inevitable
Like falling leaves of autumn
Plunging into an untold fable
Smelling earth;sodden & solemn

Strange restlessness crawling & overpowering
Waves roaring & rolling furiously
Dragonflies flapping & hovering
Celebrating transition merrily & gregariously

I did notice the sudden morph
With distant migrating chirrup
Transition like flying away swarf
Sandy sanddunes & slipping syrup...

Go, Get a Life !

For just one thing;
Equality O Equality!

He fought;

For just one thing;
Unity O Unity!

He lost;

For just one thing;
Dignity O Dignity!

He changed;

For just one thing;
Justice O Justice!

He lived;

For just one thing;
Love O Love!

He wished;

For all five things;
Humanity O Humanity

Complicated or Deceptive ?

Wondering about the simplicity
Of How things work out
Let's smudge the doubt
As I explore my city

Stepping into its outskirts
With the perfumed wind
And the stars sequinned
Parallel to expanse vert

Zigzag goes the bridge
With people flowing on
Before day is gone
Finding home like midge

Syncing steps ; Still grounded
By the unending complexities
As confused as Kitties
Pre-existing answers yet hounded!!

Known Strangers

Seconds passed into years
Long before me, he stood
Like rustling leaves, in woods
His eyes met mine
Our hands touched and felt
While I studied his burnish line

As if we met just yesterday
Looked as stage artists
Hiding emotions & mist
Everything around, was obsolete
Words dissolved & lingered at the same time
Throbbing feelings & heartbeats...

Riddle

Is he the one, I ask
I don't know how we met
I remember the football & net
May be he greeted
Or just made his way out
Next to me, he seated
While I adored his clout

Such a lively & cheerful element
Whom I tried to circumvent
Strange yet unavoidable
At the same time
A character of a fable
Or undeciphered rhyme
Are you the one, I ask....
