Angel Wings

There she was
Born on angel wings
Held close in her
mothers blanket love
wrapped in daddy's
strong arms
and an even stronger will
to protect this angels
future dreams
and great values to instill !

Yes , she was born on angel wings and
a pocket full of angel dust
she sprinkled around...
each tome she blinked.
Her cheeks like puffs
of pink blushing clouds
isn't this some angelic stuff?





                                                                                                                                                              💓

There she was , an apple of
her siblings eyes
held in their tiny arms
holding their secrets tight,
seeking the comfort
they will know all their life :)

She came out a fighter
Fierce spirit
Like mother and dad
Yes, she was born
on angel wings,
with divine light bright,
and a million blessings !!!

God's embrace !

You whisper my dreams to me
on a silken thread of eternity
against the black velvet sky.
you caress my ears with
this gentle breeze
and soothe my ruffled thoughts      
with ease,
unuttered words from the depths of me
spring forth
cocooned in your Grace
like a newborn wrapped tight
in her mother's embrace.

Faith they say is elusive...
for me it is as sure
as the sky is blue !!

As my mind slips into
its monkey antics
away from the edge of sanity,
you anchor me
in this world of tricks,
as your hands become
my love trampoline
catapulting me
onto higher realms,
seeking new heights
of understanding ,
clamouring only for
you
and soon
nothing but you exist !

(W)hole again !

So there it goes
this magic I felt
has left me
shifted,
sifted through times sieve
Silly promises
of love n such
melted into nothingness
Love , what is left to believe ?

Left you and me
forever transformed .
Bitter - you say !
Maybe ?! or
For better .... I say ,
For a softer moment in time
to catch us
sew this torn life
piece by piece,
like a jigsaw puzzle
So this heart
can gush with emotion
once again
feel the depths of the ocean,
that existed
before you.

With you gone
I find myself...
Yes 'Find' myself
Finally and forevermore
being restored
into the whole, God
meant for me to be !

The Seeking

Of all the places of interest
you stopped by my street
hearing the Adhan,
the temple bells
Eyes looking out at the horizon.
Searching for me
Skyward ....

I am never hidden!!
Maybe, only in ignorance.
breathing life in every being
I am here
All this while right by your side
hand in hand
Oh - never far from my beloved,
who are the closest to me
Those who burn like slow ambers
on the coals of hard edged life
Purified to lift higher their souls
to be the light of lights
for many others
to believe !!

Waves of Beauty

And then , as you speak of the ocean

and of perfect beaches

of sunsets set apart by

 oceans of time.

This time brings us to yet another 

shore of beauty,

waves lashing against 

the beauty of each other ...

memories of fingers interlaced 

warmth of the setting sun 

On my skin

your fingers in my dark hair 

weaving passionate poetry.

Of colors of ocean blue

crimson red

of dipping sun to sea

merging 

becoming one 

As your lips dip down on mine

Time Prism

Reflective, refractive , fragmented -- 

life memories

prism of time casts a varied hued spell

of splintered images 

 shadows of  colors  vivid , stark ... bits then pieces 

Splashes my present blankness 

Photo Credit:  ArtByShe-be

pure , innocent white that engulfs 

unborn images of my future 

cocooned in its womb.

safe harbor 

until time catches another moment 

refracted 
dream-catcher --
prism time!!

Prayer Raindrops

Evening sky
Melts into raindrops

Photo Credit : oil on canvas - ArtbyShe-Be (2006)

seeking firm ground below
Quenching - dry earth thirst
cleansing - treetops and me !

Joy madness beats
to the drum of raindrops
in my heart
Beloved, do you hear it too?
Your heart thunder of emotions...
as this sacred prayer
upon your lips
waits to explode
heavenward - it flows
your head bows
in reverence
dawns

Prayer -- Raindrops
raindrop - Blessings
This full circle of life
surrounds you and me
mere instruments
of His Grace

So we may rise up
in prayer
to meet Him
on fragile wings of love,
through each other
inspite of each other
hearing His Truth
seeking His word
making His love between us
dissolving like raindrops ....

Is there any other way to be, beloved ?
