Circle of Thoughts 10

A vision a verse by Savvy Raj
Thoughts may seem powered by their own momentum
A concentrated effort of combining thoughts
Perhaps connecting these dots
Is not a random exercise after all.

Add belief add faith
add trust, some hope
The power to choose one thought over another
Is the intentional shift called a conscious choice.
Savvy Raj

Caged Birds

I stand here by my window looking outwards
In a house across the street are pairs of newly caged birds
Parrots , sparrows and some fancy exotic birds all in a single cage
I knew in that tiny contraption, they were filled with ultimate rage
Maybe their wings were cropped and space scarce
I have seen their movements change in due course
They’re a restless lot , their struggles relentless
But their desire to fly is boundless
To the owners, they are just beautiful pets
A sense of ownership , something to possess I guess
But to these birds, this is sheer hell
How in happiness would they possibly dwell?
Birds are natural dancers
And they are such graceful prancers
In fact everything alive is meant to move
To be nourished in frredom for it to grow
it was never meant to be still and stuck in tiny places
That is why God made this world so huge with expansive spaces
It was meant to fly free
It was meant to be.
It seeks fulfillment as it flies
Across the sky and watch the world go by
I hear their songs of sadness as they chirp everyday
They aren’t singing tunes of hope, life for them is bleak and grey
Its more a woeful cacophony than a melody
Perhaps as the time goes by, they will learn to live by
And accept their new surroundings
But alas what a waste of wings
If only they hear the plight of these hapless birds
And sense the sounds of silence, what a waste of life’s joy in flight
Cos their clipped wings can never flap in delight…
Whose loss is it anyway?
Is what the world might indifferently say
And perhaps justify as karmic cycle being repaid
Alas! Isn’t another vicious cycle being relaid?
Savvy Raj
Sharing these reflections written a year ago when I was living in the city of Mumbai where hearts are big but living spaces small like any other bustling city. I have moved on to a much greener city and today it is truly a blessing that my terrace opens out to a protected patch of forestland and I often find myself refreshingly awakened early morning, hearing the cheer of the chirping birds .
On a rainy day I can often find a peacock perched happily on the branch of the nearby trees. Seeing the joy in the flight of these birds and at times getting lucky to catch a sight of delightful murmuring of birds in the horizon definitely makes my evenings truly enthralling. Savvy
Wonder of You!
Wonder of You! A Visual Verse By Savvy Raj
Have you ever wondered about the divinity of the Creator?
In the blade of grass as much as the man.
The atoms arranged to efficiency
With a difference of the sheath but with a life essentially.
Designer Magnifique! Beyond knowledge beyond wisdom.
Source code of life itself … Creator who created you?
Dawn to dusk…Desire to deliverance
Attribution to Retribution
Beyond time… beyond Eternal
Tireless and Relentless,
Of Passion at play!
Simple and Sublime, patience so humbling.
Ultimate Designer and Creator of Souls
Root to Pinnacle
Salutes of Gratitude!
Bows in Reverence,
Of the ubiquitous omnipresence!!!

A Waltz with Nature

An invitation to dance
with nature in all its glory…
Connect to its abundance
And reveal its many a untold story!
Embrace its enchanting greenery
Relate to its healing ways
Regale in the beauty of the scenery
Rejoice in every swing and sway…
In these blissful interconnects
Realising its infinite wealth
Acknowledging the pure energy that emnates
Through every conscious breath!
Savvy Raj
P.S The above picture speaks to me to treasure and respect the beauty of nature in all its glorious hues…
And in the crispness of morning and the warmth of sun kissed light
In a garden so charming a dancing heart takes flight…’Savvy

A Sense of it all!

I am because you are & we are because they are ...
Let us all care to value the strength of the interconnects in the interdependence.

Sense of Infinity

I stand here amidst the stillness of trees,
Gazing up at the enchanting evening sky.
I watch the crimson sky fade into oblivion,
Hail the twinkling stars sparkling like diamonds in array,
Enshrouded in the misty cape of pink and blue sky.
Even as these autumn trees play their part
In bringing the vision closer home,
Captured in their silhouettes
Is magic in the sky
And the mystique of the forest
Amidst it all there is delight that dumbfounds.
Of awe and amazement and of wonder in the whimsical
But most of all is the connect to this now
In just sensing the beauty of this, one moment in infinity.

Circle of thoughts: 7

Earlier Verses from Circle of thoughts : 6
In expanding circles & connecting with the world
Increasing awareness increasing understanding
The energy in the synergy, calling to action
Collectively changing, a conscious expansion.
CIRCLE OF THOUGHTS: 7
Considering in the contemplating
Correlating in the connecting
Coaliting and compounding
Collecting to conjuring some more.

About the Author:
The Healing Touch
Have you really touched someone today?
Have you been embraced with expansive love?
Have you felt like reaching out with all your heart?
Have you held another’s hand in your hand?
Great is the healing in a caring touch.
One handhold can lift a broken spirit.
One hug can heal another soul.
One step to reach out can tug at another’s heartstrings.
One touch of kindness can make all the difference.
Great is the healing in a caring touch.
Both life and living can at times turn cold
When the children grow and empty their nests,
When life becomes too busy to be,
When relationships start to lose their meaning,
When tired body leaves one forlorn,
When thoughts seem to turn anxious,
When moments seem to drag,
When a sense of utter loneliness prevails,
Whenever there are feelings of helplessness.
Remember to reach out and hold a needy hand
As the power of healing is in a caring touch.

A tap into Gratitude.
A mail to me this morning made me stop and smile and tap into gratitude with all my heart.
It was from my reader and friend now over the years, Robert Mason, who has been extremely supportive of my journey through the visions and verses.
A share of kindness and appreciation can be the spring well of creativity.
A few lines in dedication to this kind and caring soul…
My dear patron,
Your compliments inspire me on my path
Your words encourage & your belief supports
Recently you asked about my art, vision and verse …
You asked me, where I create from
You asked me how long it takes to form.
You asked me from where warmth and positivity spring forth in my words.
Life they say, is the best teacher guide and mentor
Perhaps in the siftings of life and living
The colours of my art emerge.
Perhaps the sounds of words felt deep within
I sense again, in the verses I write
Perhaps the blow of incessant hot and cold winds of changes
Mellow my words with moderation.
Words are powerful I deeply believe
As I had written somewhere earlier too
In faith hope and trust
I care to send out my thoughts
That they may shift the perspectives
Of another’s thought to turn to the positive.
That they may bring the very same contentment
in the reading and sensing
to awaken the spirit and let their souls shine
With love and gratitude
In the realization of all that is.
That I feel deep within.
Beauty of it all is
That life continues
To be a great impactor
In the winds of changes.
There is much to understand and know
New learnings, new knowings
That teach as they are happening now.
The trick is to be open
And allow it all in the flow
To assimilate and acknowledge
This wealth of wisdom between you & me.
So I thank your questions here to me
As it awakens my spirit now
To brave new frontiers of creativity
But with deep responsibility.
Thank you for the pause in my thoughts
You invoke with your caring query.
Significance of creative endeavors
Arise first from curiosity and care
And that propels new paths and purpose…
In this journey of life and living.
Savvy Raj
