EMOTIONS OF NATURE

SADNESS

Let the rain shed tears of pain
And leaves of the tree wail
Till the all the leaves are shed in the wailing
Let the glory of the sun be hidden by the clouds
Can there be sadness in the nature
In the sacrifice of the dewdrops
Who gives his all to the leaf
In the love of sunrays
Let the earth tremble with rocking emotions
And the clouds hurl torrents of rain
Let the river flow in the uneven
Where its path is stopped by human tresspasses,
Let the silence of the morning
Be a mark of forgiveness
For giving death to the night,
Let the triumph of the mountains
Give way to unending outpour of volcanic tears
The unending mystery of sadness
The pangs of pain is felt
In the empty arms of the seashore
That lets go of the clasping of the waves
When the long yearning
For the waves breaks its heart
In the sudden departure,
When the leaf of the tree
Falls in the arms of the earth,
When the falling star
Doesn't gaze back in its journey
Where the life would come to an end,
Nature is sad today
Can you feel it.

LONGING


Longing for that smile
That castes its magic on me
The longing of the poet
Words of rage, words of glory
Words, words, words,
Like the flow of water
Held hostage to the blockades
Can you feel the gigantic force of the water
Dwelling up in its long stalled movement
When the power inside it
Shall explode someday breaking forth from the wall
In the power of intense force of the will,
Come to me the power of
Long held rage
That spews out the power from inside the volcano
The heat of which cannot be resisted by feeble minds
Let the earth shudder in all flow of emotions
Where the mother shall wail in its shaking
And humans shall run away for shelter
Stop the cyclone
And the trees in staunch defiance
Shall be forever uprooted from its roots
Where the winds shall howl and cry
In the rage held for centuries
And torrents of rain
Shall beat upon the earth
Unstoppable,
Gaze at the sky and
The lightning shall strike
And burn the creation in ashes
While the heat of the sun
And the cold of the night
Shall give life to the intensity of a dying spirit
When life of nature shall
Be revealed and the longing shall be restored
Admist the sudden quiet of a cold morning

HAPPINESS

Can you feel the tenderness of the nature
When the cooing of an bird marks
A respite to the night
And the morning is honoured by salutes
Of birds in utter unity
While the rays of the sun
Give its hand to the sky
That spreads its arms in all directions
While the breeze plays with the branches
In all gentleness of child
Unaware of the colours of life
Can you feel the love of the lake for the moon
That waits all day
To be united in the night
A gentle mother looks after her child
In the singing of a gleeful song,
Are there listeners ?
Yes there are ,
When the cooing of the birds
And music of nature rhyme
And love attains wings
Flying high
Unending to a place
Where the soul have never reached
But the heart rhymes to the unseen chord
Where only two fluttering hearts
Yield to the beauty of love
Can you feel the magic
Of love that lights up the yes
In the darkest of nights
When the clasping of arms
Fills in the long held void
To find the sudden emptiness
Filled with in your presence
Come to me
Like a music that flows in my blood
In forever love
Can the night be forever
Where the dreams of my lover
Shall stay
Admist the quiet
And heavens comes knocking in my door
In the form of your divine vision
When the fruits of thousands of my lives
Find attainance in your acceptance
When the sudden tears are nothing
But the outpouring of a long lonely soul
Now finding a new life by your love,
I felt lonely alone
But your presence gave me the strength
In the weakness of a dying solitary spirit
And the music of your eternal voice
Rings deep into me when
The words is silent,
Your voice rises amidst the quiet
Now so beautiful seem the repercussions,
Give me the long held desire
A lonely soul cried for long lonely hours
Finds pain subdued by your presence
And the wish for your love
Given sudden life
In one eternity of an hour,
When the purpose of my life was revealed
And the philosopher of life
Blessed the heart with wings of utter
Flight in the uncharted terrritories of love
In the inspiration of thy longing

SILENCE

Silence have come
Do you feel it in my shadow
A soft music playing by my side
Like the whisper of your love
But where are you
In the bustling of crowded streets
I search for you but in vain
In the woods
I roam to seek you
But find the grass looking at me
The silence of the long lonely nights have seized,
I look for you
Come to me in the sudden awakening
Taking unawares when thy presence
Shall sustain me of all perils
Inspire me to reach the heights of fame
Let thy love be my power
Where I would achieve the grandeur
Of a long held wish,
Give me life through your love
And I shall be unstoppable,
Give me your laughter
And I shall be invincible
Till thy silence lingers and cuts me inside,
Look in my eyes
And I shall be gripped by mysticism
Where life shall be revealed in all colours,
Let thy hair float
And my dreams shall fly sky high
And stand in defiance to the sun
Where he shall bow to me
In the night
And the moon shall
Bestow upon me the honour of the universe,
Who else but you shall be my success
Beneath whose veil have I waited
For thy smile to lift it in forever crystallity
Lead me into another world
And let the suppression of the thoughts
Give way to insatiable flow,
The hunt for words lurks in the darkness
But the mind have risen
Come to me in the long lonely nights
Fill them with thy vibrant colours
Floating me into the sky
From stars to stars unending
And back to you
In the fairytale of thy worship
