My Home Coming/ Teacher Teacher Be Mine!

With mid Summer heat cooling a bit
Weather forecast of future heat
Dwindling now and bundling then
My shadows, some in rain or shine
I realize suddenly, that home coming
Is not too far away.. 
Some friends gone and some lost in time
My days within this home that I call me
Will be only memories if not worth a dime
I realize one other thing, that keeps me 
Busy, day or night, of thoughts or plights
That time will come..
When all is lost except hope, to survive
To part knowledge, of love or art
Before I depart, if not to all, 
At least to one,
That may matter
Or none..
Yet in the back of my thoughts,
Causing a nagging lingering pain, 
Yet to be forgotten
I realize, I do not recall you
Nor your face, owing to the time spending
Decades away, since I have seen
May be fleetingly while waiting in a doctor’s office
Or purchasing flowering plants at the nurseries
Or at nearby Walmart doing groceries
Or supplies for my kids projects
That was done ages before,
I forget how you look or how your voice sounds
Yet, at the back of my mind I knew your presence
Or so did I think I found..
But today, I know, for sure
It was a fantasy as before
Played by Him
To lure me to live
In hope of seeking
Until I find Him!
Wow, what a teacher is He! 
Without letting His pupil know
Scaffolding all along
Until the final Home of
Coming to Him!

Shell

It’s a story of a well In a remote place where the kings dwell Girls couldn’t be in a shell No matter it is three Or a week into thirty three It’s a girl, a Shree While still in growing spells Tissues and organs with tiny little cells Bodies that can’t hear bells Pulled out of slumber From the mother's number A bed of dark umber There are thousands Hanging in the deep seated bands With no legs or hands  Into the earth's womb They travel into their dark tomb Mom can not even comb If by chance you hear Baby girl’s cries, as the winds tear With softness of a shear ‘Ma Lakshmi! the baby’s here!’ Alas in her world lasting a mere Couple of cries to hear… She is sent home Into the milky ocean, with an Aum Chanting as she drowns Little does she know The wells In that village show Through the wind or snow Not only to God’s name But to the stars and soundless game Those keep dumping the fame There is no hiding No, nothing dreading from abiding It’s goin...

As Usual, In Your Love

I think of you, as always Telling myself, I am determined to sing Lyrics somehow seem to be missing  Nether do I know the tune or a thing. On days when it rains Listening to the thunder I think of you as going in your  Golden chariot across the clouds The pool of water drenching me I think of you showering with me Rain brings such perfume from the earth Filling the world in its aromatic breeze It is so intoxicating and I can not feel anything  Other than your sweet love that I bathe in As you are surrounding me everywhere, anytime Water drops or whiff of wind gently touching Pigeons are quiet as the night approaches So are the birds that came from distance I see some lonely birdlings crying for food Some are still trying for shelter  Having outgrown the nest they grew in They need a mate of their own So their babies can share the world That you so lovingly  created as you For you protect the beings with life or without, Narayana, name one thing that isn’t you Yo...
