Blessings

I hear the word in hymns
The word spoken with emotions
It is associated with happiness
Because it carries joy with it

I was told it comes in different forms,
One has their own unique form,
As the creator created us in his form
We all shall know and embrace our unique forms

Patience we are bound to possess,
As only we can suppress the desire of short cuts,
And learn to receive at the right time,
No man knows the right time,
Don’t try to act like it’s a lame man’s time
It is the higher power’s time,
For his time it’s not our time

You cannot track Blessings,
As they do not announce their visit,
You cannot cram their knock,
As they do not tick like a clock
But always have a space,
Where they can find comfort and release their sweet scent
When their scent fills the space
It takes out the bad odour
Suddenly you are easily approachable
That’s why they say when you have them,
You attract good things

Life is in simple things

Have you ever heard the pitter patter of feet
Of children playing in the street

Heard the rumbling of thunder in the night
Enough to give you a fright

Stopped to smell the roses in the garden
With guilt, almost asking them for a pardon

Life is in simple things
With all the joy it brings

Have you ever caught raindrops on your tongue
When spring has sprung

Did you ever watch the sunrise
When birds in flight arise

Have you ever felt blades of grass under your feet
It’s pretty neat

Life is in simple things
With all the joy it brings

Have you ever smelt rain after a hot day
Although you’d wish for the sun to stay

Touched a caterpillar on a leaf
A butterfly is what he will become, what a relief

Have you ever walked along the beach
With waves as angry and almost with a lesson to teach

Life is in simple things
With all the joy it brings
Live it

First sms to khentsane

words are failing me to tell you
how you have inflicted
flames of joy and happiness in my heart
I don't know you and you don't know me
but I'm willing to get to know you and
also share with you what I feel for you
I have never in my life felt like this
you have mesmerized my heart with love

The sound of love

The sound of love

Love is a sound
A sound in my head
A sound which makes
People dance and scream
Loud with joy and pride

“Listen to me and feel me
I am truly yours
Love

I am a sound that is wild and
This soothes your soul and heart
I am love

I am music in your ears
I am beautiful and inspirational

From your hair follicles
To your toenails
You can feel the vibration
Of my sound
I am love

Tears tearing down with
Fresh sounds and melodic moods
Feel me I am truly
Come with me
You will play on the piano

I can be an instrument
You can sing with me
I am love
And I am in love with sound”

Love is a sound

Shadow of the night

Seated beneath the tree
Of that night, I remember
You promised me
Only me for you
And no other for me.

The witnesses of that night
Birds still singing in joy
The moon brightening the village
They have kept their promises
But through my daughter
You left for me yourself.

Just like you did
Beneath another tree,tonight
Perhaps she is there
Listening to you
Making night vows
That dawn taketh away
This night she has to remember
Just like I do in tears
Looking at the shadow of that night.

3 little butterfly’s

3 little butterfly's
As white as snow
flying past my window
Again and again
Turning circles up and down
holding all the joy in the world
going again and again
following winds course out of sight
following the rhythm
and enjoying their life
Enchanting my eyes
just like a dream
You came past my life
Bringing joy to my sight
3 little butterfly's came into my life

The day of birth

The day of birth,
A day that stains the soul with joy
A day that lightness a soul with peace
A day that brings forth a crack on my face
This is the day, the day I was born.

It is the day that maid me, me
A day that gave birth to the soul that I see
A day that lives only for your soul
A day that shall never slip from your mind
This is a day that I remain in heart

Great wishes are granted
Joy lives deep in our hearts
This is a day, a joyful day
Candles are blown, and age is gone
I wish for this day to be every day

It’s a day that shall never be a repeat
But a day that repeats every year
It’s a day that shall never be a review
But a day that reviews it’s self
It is a bday, to you and me a birthday

Here, there and everywhere

Some degree of trepidation it takes to be fond
of unsighly snakes of various makes;
some unfrozen water's left in the pond
concealed as fakes by ice & flakes.

Some residue precariously remained
when trading joy for distress;
some anonymous are found amongst those named
and some wakefulness despite weariness.

Some degree of pain results in spiritual gain
and warmth, youth & vigour are cradled by old & cold;
in repetition again obscure realises main
reminiscent of many tales told.

Some sun still hides behind thunder so loud
as not one, but many in sorrow opt for shroud;
some lucidness is in sleep & weariness in awake
as equal in importance as make & break.

Some shapes materialise in straight line bend
and some restful truth evades lying;
some stangers are but yet an unmet friend
as here, there & everywhere life's left despite dying.

kids

I played with young ones today
I saw the joys of life
Of memories long lost in my soul,

The happiness an ice cream brings to their eyes
The reckless abandon of mess all over their face
The sheer ecstasy of the smile you receive
When the kid sees you looking at their messy face
What bliss.

All this delight is a insensitive reminder to me
Of my unfruitful kin.
My supreme fear is rested its head in my haven.

So Moms and Dads when you feel you have had enough
Remember to buy your masterpiece an ice cream
And behold your joy
This is love bartered out of life.

let me be there

Let me be there with you

When you happen to cry and could not see my face,
Let me stretch my hand and give you my faith,
Let me trap the fate and plant your light,
Let me hold your hand and trick the hell,
Let me help you, when you are out of plans.

If I could’ve happened to meet you in the road,
I could have passed you by,
When the robot turned red,
I could have survived with your smile as my rod,
I could have shouted the word green as read in your notes,
Meeting you in my heart was a root that is unrolled,
For in my history I never went through this route,
For in my songs you are the story,
Feels like I met you somewhere before, in my soul.

It was not my choice to love you,
Yet my soul chose you as the one,
I could not go without you as my song,
But if I have to be a loser in my voice,
Please do not let me lose you as I sing,
If this is the same world, we all share,
If those were the same stars, we would see,
And when signs sink down,
You would say,
If we rise together, we would smile
Then we won’t be miles to agree,

We only have half a night to dream, but
We have our whole life to feel,
We still have a lifetime to share,
To sit and line our sights to the sea flows,
Sing the same songs with the birds,
Dance with joy in the sun,
Listen to the world as it rotates.

So when I ask you for direction do not lie,
Direct me to your heart as you smile,
Let me come in and draft my days in your heart,
Let me come in to design my love with your light, please
Realise my cry as I try……,
Release me from this prison in time,
Relieve me from   pains of this place.
I’m here to built you a palace with peace,
To erase your pains with bliss,
To heal your cries with kiss,
To tease you smile with me.
