Quotes about enigma, page 6
The Ending
No ending of the story. The loose thread hangs.
Journey again starts at the termination.
The smell is something of enigma.
I am again dissecting the body of a stale corpse.
Fever is rising with jokes Thin sheet covers
the ugly face with blisters.
A disconcerned person burns the phosphorus.
The darkness creates the ghosts of history,
two thousand years of knowledge.
Still the niceties of culture are to e observed
and firework started
to celebrate the end of an era.

Ava Garder
Ava Garder, the movie queen,
Who breathed her last in 1990,
At sixty seven, has been pronounced
The highest specimen of the human species.
A sexy girl, a sexual symphony,
A hot number, a goddess, an enigma,
A very, very wild spirit,
The one who broke the rules all the time,
And the outburst of the celebrate men
Who had lived at her time.
She had gone famous to infamous,
To notorious and to a menace
And had a pitiable death.
One doesn’t know what future awaqits.

Alan Turing
A man who truly left his mark,
A war hero at Bletchley park,
His memory we must cherish,
He proved vital to the British,
Problems that seem overwhelming,
To be solved by Alan Turing,
Keeping the war effort on track,
With an insight that others lack.
Averting what the war forebode,
Helping crack the Enigma code,
In a time of sheer defiance,
The birth of computer science,
One talented mathematician,
Set with a most crucial mission,
He helped a victory in war,
Progress his work did underscore.

Softly Singing
He names the songs he sings,
When liking is not loathing, and the breath
Falls like an enigma called a comet;
A ray of light hangs in the distance, facing us.
Meeting eye to eye is an endeavour,
Worthwhile is the exploitation,
Dwelt in sorrow and esteem, just another sign.
Maybe thoughts gather creation
Forming wisely, gained by the created beings.
How expensive you feel in this splendour!
How does the comet soar in your mouth
When you sing softly to yourself
And brandish the sword so won?

My Mysterious Flower
Fragrant -Mauve, Purple - Flower
Violet my best flower
You make me at ease you give me Power
Lavender Flower - Mysterious Flower
what a relaxing scent! There is No More Stress
a field of Lavender thwarts a deep Sadness
You're my balm - you soothe my annoyance
Just one deep breath- I go into a trance
your enigmatic color, make me pensive
meditiative
contemplative,
introspective,
reflective.
I wonder the Lavender scenery
I dive
no north, no south, no east, no west
I am your faithful captive.

Pistil Of My Poem
Beneath thy tremulous leaf of thine heart's carpel,
Sentiments of pollen adjoin love's stigma
Where thine ovary and ovule mature into love's enigma
And seeds flower into fascinating fruit.
To smell its sensuality and become unknown to me
Myself and thee, in thy pistil's mystery
Ambrosial and fragrant we be rapt thy scent
And fast we love, by thy heart lent
The elixir of my poetry, the passion of mine garden
The place where am Born and sweetly bard in
My love the pistil of my poem
In thy heart my heart my poetry is shone

Cradle the Lion's Grave
The meandering Lion, impaired by a trance
Of feral instinct and hedonistic impetus
Torn to avert or succumb his fated tragedy
But only festoons the lion's unwritten fable
Ensconced by the eaves of pure enigma
Slithering the ornate tangling forlorn forest
Whilst the Moon stroke the fiery wisps
Of his cynical golden tresses and bastion
Grazing on his poignancy to submission
And scintillating a cordial theme park
Clandestine with a selfish feisty carnival
From the Lion's lacerations that stalls
Upon the labyrinthine forest's walls.

Once Upon
Robbing the silence of heights
to undo the whole sky, you lean on
an enigma to become reverential,
elevated by an absurd system;
I was still pursuing fidelity
in the rubble of meaningless life;
not faith, but certain urge to follow
the doorway to unknown, something to be done
for the hungry child’s scream,
the truth that was not there, nor with the
inclined gods of tomorrow. Then where
shall we meet in the grazing bones
of new born human culture?
The instant music of death wish lingers on a moon
and then flies away in a kiss.

Two Rings
He gave her a ring shown on black velvet
She wore it daily till her death
She gave him a locket ring
With scrolled letters and hint of heavy gold
He wisely knew its danger and left its wear to son
So this marriage through their years
That went of two score minus three
One with ring and one with out
This was a marriage that grew more true with time.
One last word, young lovers of our different age,
You would do well to ponder the enigma of a world
Where rings could count both for so little and so much
A world in which there was no magic in gold.

Yonah Is Not Standing Where Only God Is
YONAH IS NOT STANDING WHERE ONLY GOD IS
(WRITTEN AFTER READING AVIVAH ZORNBERG'S CHAPTER ON ‘YONAH' IN HER BOOK ‘THE MURMURING DEEP')
Yonah is not standing where only God is-
He is praying from his belly
He does not want to live-
All the great fishes and the great sailors of the sea
Cannot understand what Yonah cannot be-
The time has come
The moment is here
God alone can answer Yonah's fear-
Nineveh is saved with twelve-thousand men
But Yonah's gourd has disappeared again-
Life is a longing and life is a prayer
Life's an enigma though God everywhere.
