The Eternal Sketch

-

 



In the hush where words dissolve, life softly draws its lines,

Silent sketches turning through the veins of endless time.

Each line becomes the language born of dreaming minds,

A shadowed dance unfolding, subtle, yet sublime.

**** 

Breath whispers secrets only listening hearts can hold,

It shapes the unseen futures drifting in quiet spheres.

Each fragile line, a vow that gently will unfold,

To craft the unknown paths beyond our doubts and fears.

**** 

From embered souls arise the sparks of guiding light,

Kindness glowing softly through the depths of longest night.

They stand as silent beacons shaping what is true,

Forming worlds from visions held in something new.

**** 

Through woven threads of time, the generations grow,

With hope and memory in currents that still flow.

Fragile dreams awaken in the dawn’s first grace,

Carving out their paths through darkness into space.

**** 

And in the hush where all beginnings find their place,

Life draws again with quiet, unrelenting grace.

The lines return, completing what they once began-

An endless sacred cycle shaping soul and span.

Lines of Silent Becoming

Life draws its lines in silence, with ink no eye can ever see- unseen, yet etched in every breath, a quiet script of what will be. ✦ ✦ ✦ Lines become the language of imagination, written in the flowing ink of thought, tracing paths where minds may wander, where the unseen is gently caught. ✦ ✦ ✦ Imagination breathes new life into the world, its ink shaping what is felt but never shown- turning shadows into meaning, giving form to the unknown. ✦ ✦ ✦ From life emerge good souls- bearers of a deeper, living ink, quiet fires in the vast of time, teaching hearts to feel and think. ✦ ✦ ✦ From them, civilizations rise and evolve, written not in stone alone, but care- in the ink of hope and memory, in dreams a generation shares. ✦ ✦ ✦ And still, in the quiet between all things, the ink has never ceased to flow- life begins again in silence, writing all we’ll come to know.

The Last Harvest

-
Image
  Sweat falls into cracked lines of time, Dry earth rests upon my worn face. Yet hidden seeds of hope remain; In ash, old dreams still find their place. *** Grey hairs rise like stubborn wild grass; Still I turn the soil once more. Time spits upon my face-I plant again, Though life feels like a binding chore. *** Ancient aches within my bones, Songs of loss I cannot name. Seasons and sons taught me to bend, Yet every wound still burns the same. *** Family and fields-mere strokes of luck, When seasons bless, life takes its yield; But when time turns its face away, All turns to waste, like choking weeds. *** No cup is free from hidden poison; Such luck is rare in any life. We drink what time has mixed for us, Bitter as truth, and sharp as strife. *** Debts rise and fall through our lives; Like tides that never truly end. Like an old slave bowed by the years, Yet still I refuse to break or bend. *** A rope hangs tight ’tween love and demand; We strain like bulls that plough the land. ...

Where Are You

-
Image
  Where are you now, in shadows that I keep? Your voice remains, where silence once could sleep. I walk alone, through memories we made; Each step I take, feels like it starts to fade. The nights grow long; your absence lingers near. I hear your name, in echoes sharp and clear. The dreams we built now drift like shattered glass; I hold on still, though time continues past. I search for you, in every empty place; In fading light, I almost see your face. My heart still asks the questions left behind- But no reply brings comfort to my mind. Where are you now, beyond this aching view? A part of me is lost, and lives with you. Though life moves on, I’m caught in what we knew; Still whispering: “Where are you? where are you?”

The Lion of the Ring – A Tribute to The Great Gama

-
Image
In mud-stained pits beneath the sun, Where battles of will and muscle are won, A titan rose from Punjab’s pride, With steely gaze and thunder stride. From humble earth, his legend sown, A spirit forged, uniquely grown. Ghulam Muhammad was his name, But “Gama the Great” became his flame. A boy of strength, a man of might, Who never lost a single fight. No challenge too grand, no foe too tall, He answered determination's call. Like a mountain unmoved in stormy breath, He stared down fear and danced with death. From court to court, they heard the tale, Of warriors bested, strong men pale. He faced the giants, one by one, And left a legacy bravely spun. For courage blooms where doubts retreat, And victory follows tireless feet. He struck like lightning, swift and clean, With balance sharp as a blade unseen. No boast, no crown, no scripted tale— Just grinding years and iron scale. Each muscle earned, each triumph forged, A silent promise, deeply gorged. This is the path of t...

When a Nation Bleeds

-
Image
Do you hear it- not the gunshot, but the silence that follows, a deafening void filled with unwept tears, heavy as grief that refuses to be spoken?   A nation did not simply lose a man that day; it misplaced its conscience, its soul slipping through fractured fingers. The earth drank blood- not as nourishment, but as poison- meant to water the seeds of peace and watch them wither in the shadow of hate.   Yesterday, freedom danced- a fragile flame in borrowed sunlight, its bangles ringing with hope- a melody of what could be, a promise whispered in the breeze. Today, the same hands tremble- unsure how to cradle the future, haunted by the ghosts of what was stolen.   We thought history was finished- sealed in books and statues, immortalized in stone and memory- but we forgot it breathes- it bleeds- through us, in every silent prayer, in every broken promise, in every unspoken apology.   A father fell- his last breath a question- etched deeply on the...

The Condom is the Conundrum(A Poem in Many Voices)

-
Image
They said in school, in chalk and charts, "Be smart, be safe, protect your parts." We giggled then, too young to see The veil between "just you and me." We laughed at packs with names like "Fire," "Ultra Thin," "True Love," "Desire." The wrapper popped — a rubbered rite, A killjoy in the heat of night. My friend Funny voice: “You got one?” “Yeah.” “It’s old.” “It’s fine!” We fumble through the great design. It squeaks, it slips, it feels like doom — Mood-killer king of every room. But pause — beneath the clumsy jest, A softer truth begins to rest. My poetic and Romantic voice: He touched her face, she touched his hand, Two people trying to understand. Not just protection, but a vow To guard the love they’re building now. Yet love’s not always soft and pure — Some use, discard, repeat, endure. My Dark voice: A stranger’s name, a motel bed, A life unlived, a word unsaid. The condom shields, but also shames — A whispe...

The Hate

-
Image
When one desire another's aim denies, And wills collide, then hate begins to rise. They creep in quiet, cloaked in shame, A whisper first, then full-blown flame. They spark from wounds not yet confessed, A fear unmet, a heart unblessed. They grow in glances, left unchallenged, In bitter jokes, in thoughts unbalanced. They feed on silence, thrive on doubt, Until we scarcely call them out. They bloom in traffic, curt replies, In weary parents' sleepless sighs. In classrooms where the loud survive, And softer voices twist and dive. They whisper in the hiring freeze, In sideways stares and tightened knees. They sit in boardrooms, cold and neat, And trickle down through crowded streets. They wear a thousand, borrowed skins— The flag, the faith, the tribe, the sins. They justify with twisted lore, a cruel, dynamic weapon, Then knock, demanding open doors. They rise in posts behind a screen, Where avatars grow cold and mean. They wear the mask of "just a joke," B...

The Evening Bloom

-
Image
Don't anchor dreams to borrowed ground, Or children's hearths where joys are found. Let love not clip your spirit's flight, Embrace your freedom, shining bright. Grandchild's laughter, sweet and clear, You're a cherished guest, not rooted here. Hold close, but not too near, too far, A gentle smile, your guiding star. Advice, a coin, they may not take, Your truth for them, their path to make. Let falls be lessons, growth unfold, Your guiding hand, a story told. A little space makes spirits keen, Like dusk that softens evening's scene. No daily call, no constant plea, They'll seek your light, in their own key. Guard well your heart, your quiet grace, Let dignity light up your face. Don't parcel out your peace of mind, Till life's last whisper leaves behind. The battles fought, the tears once shed, Were love's pure gifts, now softly spread. No need for thunder, loud acclaim, You played your part, now tend your flame. Gone are the days of...

The Seed of Tomorrow: My Indian Class rooms

-
Image
  In every Indian classroom, where morning light spills, A future takes root, echoing through green hills. Young faces in uniforms, bright with a knowing glow, From humble worn benches, great aspirations grow. Between the chalk's whisper and pages turned soft, A world of vast learning begins to lift aloft. The teacher stands poised, a guiding hand, a warm gaze, Each lesson a spark in these formative days. Not just facts we discover, but pathways we mend, Values like rivers, whose currents transcend. From tales of our past to the sums on the slate, Every moment is sculpting our beautiful fate. This learning's a treasure no moment can claim, A fire within us, burning bright, true, and untame. It's more than just knowledge; it's learning to lead, To challenge, to question, to plant the right seed. Each hand raised in wonder, a beacon in the sky, Each notebook a canvas where dreams learn to fly. Let no "cannot" define what "can" sets in motion, Even when...
