Turning inwards
From illusions to clarity
Lighting the lamp within
Awakening in awareness
To the timeless truth
Essence of consciousness.
A prayer integrating the body mind & spirit . 🙏

Infinite possibilities
Charcoal on black
Art on black paper
The artist is engrossed
Working relentlessly
Charcoal on black
Revealing the light from the dark
Reversing the fundamentals of art
Shaping the light into form
Contouring the edges
White charcoal lifts and highlights
Speckling with light
Black ones adding depth
Matting the shine
The fluid fingers flowing
Almost dancing on paper
Sweeping strokes
Creating softness of light
In contrast they meet
Sharp staccato moves
Accenting tension and texture.
Arresting the eyes.
This waltz with light on dark
And dark on light
In shades & tones
Applying and erasing
Refining in the rendering
Form merges and emerges…

Serenading my senses…
It’s early evening
The sunlight is still filtering in
I sit back, after a walk.
It feels like a balmy dusk
Watching dappled rain drops
Falling on verdant leaves 🍃
Petrichor fills the air
Rising from the earth
Sensing the glimmers of this now.
Serenading my senses, in serendipity…

Smile from the heart!
It’s truly a wonderful way to live inside out.
There is a lot in life to be thankful for .
Sending such an intention outward is an unending hope, that life never hardens, the living with all our heart & soul.

#smile from the heart
Light of dawn
Its presence needs a little wait,
In both patience and perseverance.
To envision the mighty rays
Dawn of its true potential.
In lighting the hearts
Aflame in purpose.
This poem aims to reflect the dawn, by beginning slowly to depict the stillness that precedes the dawn and like an inhale, generate the light building up to dawn and then accelerate to the brilliance of sunshine… hope you enjoy reading it.

Look at the sky
Look up
The same sky that brought the storm
Brings forth the sunshine
What more proof do you need,
To trust that it will soon change?
Whatever it is,
Better times are around the bend.

Grace of Luminescence
On a moonlit night
Embalmed in its luminescence.
Bathed in its argent glow
Graced by the peace in the beam
Radiance lingers in its pearlescent reflection
Drawing us to look upwards
As we are enveloped by its lovely light.
Savvy

A learning mind
A true learners mind never ages
For they have the curiosity of a child
A blank slate where learning can be added
An earnestness in exploration
A trustful disposition
An open mind that allows expansion…
And most of all a readiness to learn
To imbibe knowledge and update the self.
When the mind is ready
The understanding happens
Savvy
Literally magic
Birthing a new world
Giving shape to imagination
Seeding trees of possibilities
Bearing fruits in the passion
Creating energy in the synergy
Making the words come alive
Writing is literally magic…

Take time
Take time to see beyond
To care and be considerate,
To be kind and compassionate,
To wonder and stay curious.
Take time to learn and explore,
To read and discover another,
To revere the precious now,
To stay grateful for every moment.
For life moves forward
As clocks tick relentlessly,
With no respite…
So choose to reclaim time.
Take time for, and with, the self.
To live lovingly than just exist.
Savvy
Who lifts you up?
Over the years
Living life teaches much.
Every person in your life
has an unique role to play.
Sometimes they are necessary for you
at times, you are necessary for them.
Life happens along the way,
leaving lessons fine.
Your emotional equation matters more than you think.
Choose to spend time with those who lift you up.
Those who bring cheer and smile to your face.
Choose your circle, its your right.
Choose wisely and you can be where you want to be…
You have one life.
Choose well…

Who will don it?
It was like a painting
That I could not forget
In the streets of Paris
Where artists paint
In passionate fervour.
The stark shape of lines
Bold colors that speak
Of the creator’s confidence.
The play of contrasts
In the light & dark.
The arresting silhouette
Almost molded to form.
An awe-inspiring design.
Displayed in the window
It caught my eye…
The dress was mesmerizing
No, not in a delicate way
It was quite the opposite.
It spoke to me
Of a certain power play
It had me thinking
Who will don it?
Power in a dress?
A dress can do much for your confidence
You can own the dress and the world …
With the right kind of dress.
Would you agree?
And tell me…
When I started the above poem with the line
It was like a painting…
Did you think it could be about a dress ?
If you did…
Did you think of it as something that flowed with beauty?
And what else would your imagination associate with a beautiful painting, I would love to know.

Space for wisdom
Letting go of one’s space
Is not easy
For it is akin to relinquishment.
Knowing how time and space
And all the other elements
Are never the same again.
Yet these experiences
manifest themselves
In the journey of life
Perhaps one or many times
For in that kind of letting go,
The ego of knowing
And assuming dissolves
Yielding space for wisdom.
Like learning is also unlearning…
Wisdom is wise in its ways.
It prefers space
And room to evolve
For it knows only too well
What is, is not all…
Change is the only constant.
Evolving through it all
Wisdom finds its space to be.
Savvy
P.S.:
These verses found their way to flow, on a particularly quiet dawn in moments of contemplation.
Sensing how letting go is not easy in our clinging to the past, be it the wins
or misses and how wisdom needs space to evolve.
And most of all as a reminder that instead of holding on to the weight of the past, if we only could allow ourselves to be in the lightness of this now…
What is that one thought or habit you’ve had to “unlearn” recently to make room for something new?
