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…
Savvy
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
Storms rage and ravage
They lay waste the efforts
And destruct many a lives.
Yet they rise, only to fall
When the storm subsides
The world picks up the pieces
Of the then and now…
To build again in hope
That tommorow is another new day.
But storms that pass, often leave imprints;
Of traumas in those testing times
Of fear in the back of the mind.
They appear in dreams
Almost as if it is reality.
They create confusion in the sanest of times
But when the heart knows
That fear is just the mind
Playing its tricks again.
It becomes brave
And continues to beat stronger
And life dances to its beats…
For it has survived the storm.
Rest all is history 💙
Storms have a way of playing with our life even when they have long subsided.
The brewing storm in our thoughts and dreams may seem fearful yet they also bring perspective to empower ourselves.
I write these verses inspired by the reading the title and verses of this poem, this morning. Thank you 🙏 poeticmobility.
And the image here is from my Ai artwork collections, for I somehow feel it belongs here as well.
I leave a question here for you to reflect upon…
Every life has survived its own share of storms
Leaving much wisdom in the learnings behind.
What lesson has your heart learned after the storm?
Savvy Raj
Reaching out to the radiance
That lights my being
Feeling the magnificent way
The glow paves my path.
Seeing the grace unfold
In all its glorious resplendence
Aligning with its presence
In the breath I take.
Witnessing life transform
As darkness gives in to light
Sensing the space of lightness
As energy balances its flow.
Soul of my soul
Your omnipresence I revere
As you work your magic
Through me…
Savvy
The way of peace is not in war & conflicts
The way of peace is in heartful awareness, as much as in mindful living.
And for peace to sustain itself…
We need to evolve with awareness
We need to recognize the truth of our interdependence.
We need to adapt ourselves
To the changing times.
It will take a realization of the interconnects between
individual well being & collective wellbeing.
Anf it certainly needs acceptance and aligning with the dynamics that peace brings forth …
For peace needs embodiment through conscious choice & practice as a way of life.
Make the way of peace
A way of life.
Savvy
Is Sustained Peace Possible
A lack of tolerance, inequality, indignity, racial discrimination, body shaming, gender bias, atrocities on women ,child safety issues as much the forest fires and global warming and not to forget the threats of terror,war and more.
We are simply making it more difficult to live in this planet with each other by our egoplays, taking one another and our world for granted and need for domination without a consideration of the consequences of our actions.
Why can’t we coexist in peace and in strength of unity in this beautiful ball of blue?
After all it is the only one world we have.
There is charisma in calm
It’s the power of calm
In life’s highs and lows.
In calm lies confidence
Invoking assurance
Being calm in a conversation
Evokes the energy of stillness
Emits vibrancy devoid of agitation.
In the calm there is depth of awareness
In the center of calm
Is potential to assimilate
No matter the chaos
You find equilibrium.
When was the last time you felt the charismatic power of calm?
What does calm feel like to you in this now?
What is the distance between you and your sense of calm?
Where & how do you think you can find your calm?
The morning moments
My morning moments have the preciousness of calm for me.I choose dawn to intend the calm for the day ahead. In the quiet moments of dawn where the world is still sleeping, I find my creative state of flow. Although I have been able to connect with my calm through the day, the vibes of this part of the day resonate so much. The early morning sets the tone of the day for me.
How do you relate to the calm of dawn?
How do you sense the power of calm?

Pockets of peace
Are powerful healers
That you can invoke
Anytime, anywhere.
Identify your pockets of peace
In a day, times that feel peaceful
Is it early morning, noon
Or is it evening or night?
What places makes you feel at ease?
Mountains, oceans or forests
Or do you enjoy a quiet open space…
Like looking at the vast blue sky,
Or the twinkling stars at night.
Do you breathe easy in silence,
Or do you feel lonely for some company?
Does, being with animals birds and nature
Feel peaceful to you?
Alone or with company,
Find your pockets of peace
And sense the connection
Whenever & wherever.
Savvy
Peace within
Peace outside
Is the ideal to thrive on
To sense peace
Inside outside
Is always a work in progress.
In caring to choose thoughts well
Action emnating in goodwill
Changes the narrative
From doubts to clarity.
Let peace reign
Inside outside
Savvy
When mind is over matter
It reflects in every cell
When you keep the faith
Living in gratitude
And be thankful…
Life becomes beautiful.
Choice rests with you
Live life lovingly 💙
Savvy
Trust is what holds us together
Faith leads our way
Belief begets action
Hope brings limitless optimism
Care creates consideration
Truth brings credence.
Love bonds boundlessly
Each creates the values of being.
Savvy
A calm composed nature
Allows space for response
An agitated mind & heart
Creates room for errors,
Of judgment & misunderstanding.
Patience is a virtue
An undervalued skill
In cultivating patience
You encourage a moment
For reflection before response.
To be patient is an opportunity
To be able to lean into the silence
And glean fresh perspectives.
For every moment is filled with it..
In seeing every moment,
in the journey as a step forward
than a race against time.
Is about cultivating patience.
Creating conscious peace in mindful ways.
Savvy
Are you feeling the rage
Of a war within you
Is there a fire flaming through your veins
Is your heart thumping beyond your control
Are your thoughts so muddled that you just can’t think straight?
Well my friend, trust that this too shall pass
For your anger is self made from the agony
Of living life with frustration.
All you need is to acknowledge time as your best friend
For it shows you a new way in time
From reaction to response
But do you want to be responsible
For your self harm or healing ?
For your anger is destroying you.
Think about what ways you can flip the script you are telling yourself.
For its your thoughts and feelings that fuel your emotions, time and time again.
If your heart is hurt remember to think and align your heart with your mind.
If your thoughts are the reason and that anger is bubbling up your brain, know your heart is far expansive that you know, feel from your heart the love and forgiveness that stems from it. And align your thinking mind with the emotions of unconditional loving heart .
If both your heart and brain are a fire ball of fury then too you have the wisdom of your body. Train your body to move and realign yourself to help you step out of this phase.
Remember the potential for peace rests with you always.
It’s just a matter of acknowledging it. And bringing it into practice in response than reaction.
Peace is within you
Your infinite potential always included the peace that you actually are.
Savvy
I wonder
When the world will feel safe enough…
To trust the day that is unfolding
To be assured there will be peace
To feel secure, wherever we are
Till then let’s keep breathing
And being present in the breath
And in hope all is well.
Savvy
Allow yourself spirit to emanate joy
Allow the body to feel its contentment
Allow the self to embody peace
Allow the heart to open itself to possibilities
Allow the self to move in space and sense the freedom it offers.
Just be and allow
