I enjoy simplifying complexity
For I do believe simplicity
Is just complexity turned upside down
And perhaps knotted and twisted at times.
All it needs is an untangling.
In thoughts words and deeds.
While the mind may play games
Simply speaking from the heart
Seeing with the heart
Feeling the sensations that emnate from the heart
Will release the unnecessary knots
And create a path of clarity.

Today my mornings photography muse is this beautiful white hibiscus tenderly unfurling itself in the green foliage..I simply had to click a picture…
There is so much peace
That a white blossom emits
A sense of spirituality
Pervades in its unfurled petals
A guest for just a single day
Who better than this bloom
Gracing my garden today
To teach the truths of life.
Of living life lovingly
Garnering the wisdom of changes
Of impermenance
Its petals. proud & present
In this precious now.
Without worries of tommorow
So much dignity in its beauty.
Perhaps it understands
Transience of nature
In the phases of life
Only too well
While it blooms in peace.

Being tender in the toughest of times
Being gentle and generous with the self
In times of chaos and conflicts
In and around us
Is the way of weathering-the-storms.
Being caring and compassionate
In thoughts words and deeds.
With empathy that empowers
In light and goodwill.
Is the way of gentle heart
Flowing in loving kindness.
Conscious compassionate thoughts within become embedded in the core structure of the being, and what is powered from a strong core radiates outwards with the magnitude of faith and strength.”

A moonlit night
The beach glows bright
Silvery waves, sugary white
As the last of the seagulls take flight
Evening dusk shadows the skylight.
To behold, what a sight
To remember, what a night.

Meet?
Meet where?
You tell me
Is there a place
That is better than here?
A place that’s inviting called WordPress.
An inclusive space for creative minded souls
So meet we will, right here
In this wordy writing space
Time and time again
You and me
Sharing words
Heartfully…
💙

Any fellow writers up for this fun challenge.
Simply write in this
syllable structure…
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Looking forward to reading it.
Every living being,
And every part of our beautiful world
Has survived through time
Overcoming many obstacles
For some it is nature at its worst.
Storms and calamities
Hurricanes and floods…
For others it may be personal
And professional…
The human grit is plain to see
For we are part of nature
Persevering to preserve
Aspiring to evolve.
Remarkable is the spirit in resilience
It finds the wisdom in the challenges
To not just survive but thrive
My salute…
To the human spirit.

Roads of Goa
Don’t know you
How you live and breathe
In these nondescript pathway.
Yet here you are
Vividly present
Colouring the blue sky
With blossoms of contrasts.
Mature trunk and verdant leaves
You strike a pose
You hold a stance
In your unique way.
I see you dear tree
Grateful for your being
For you nurtured many lives
Seen many a solar cycles.
I bless you with all my heart
For healing this world…
For the world may be
You are just another tree
For me you live vibrantly
Evergreen in my memories.
A sight to behold
A vision to thank
In recognition and gratitude
For your impactful presence🙏
A trip down memory lane.
An unexpected yet beautiful burst of colour contrasting the bright blue sky prompted me to click a photo in a split second, enroute a road trip to Goa a few years ago…
P.S.
Sharing some amazing facts about the positive ecological impacts from one fully mature tree, that I came across.
Key Environmental & Ecological Impacts
That I am fond of trees is nothing new… I have written many verses on trees before as well, yet in here I share a message close to my heart…
Nurture nature Nurture trees.
You are doing an important service to help support self sustaining powerhouse of oxygen to our planet.

Today, I came across a beautiful Japanese word called ‘Komorebi’ that depicts…the beauty of light filtering in through the leaves. And I see this picture, that I had saved, somehow seems to fit right in…
Beauty of impermenance
Every ray of light
In these leaves …
Can never be replicated
To exact moments.
Yet there is stillness
In its fleeting moment
In simple appreciation,
And heartfelt acknowledging
Of the beauty of impermenance.

From illusions to clarity
Lighting the lamp within

To the timeless truth
Essence of consciousness.
A prayer integrating the body mind & spirit . 🙏

Infinite possibilities
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…

It’s truly a wonderful way to live inside out.

#smile from the heart
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.
