Spring

In spring
The tender leaves spring
And release the coiled mind to spring
And fling
The thing
That till then did wring.

In spring
The little birds sing
And sling the depressed mind to swing
And bring
Bells of joy
To ring and cling.

When In Love

Why does
the flower smile:
the bell chime
and the birds sing?

Why is
the grass greener
the breeze cooler
and the music sweeter?

Ah! It is all
because
I've fallen in love
with her
whose heart beats
in symphony
with mine!

Heaven

Grow old and be an old man like me

When you are surrounded by your grandchildren

Countless they are

You feel you are amidst the milky way

Floating and running

You feel you are the blithe spirit

Whose race has just begun

Light lingers

light lingers in the still of night when no star twinkles
and when no bells jingle
light lingers inthe fire of darkness and in the dungeon of loneliness
aloneness or all oneness is aglow with a light that was never inthe skies

Shout Into My Ears ' I Love You

o universe in your sweet whirls
shout into my ears 'i love you! '
my eyes are small
can't hold you in full measure -
yours too large to take note of me
but shout into my heart
' i love you! ' as i do.

Be Divine

When you step high you are a monument
And you leave the steps below subjacent.

Then you shackle off your shallow ignorance
And gain knowledge and are in loftiness.

Your selfishness is then in obliteration
And Divinity in you is in manifestation.

Ecstasy

Poems! Oh! Poems
You are the calm
To my turbulent lot

And the balm
To my aching heart!

With your soothing touch
You pull me
You lull me
And you cull me!

Fountains of joy
Spring forth
And encompass me!

I'm lost
In the undercurrent
Of ecstasy!

Topsy-Turvy

You would have seen
Flowers bearing fruits.
Have you seen
Fruits producing flowers?
Yes! Nature is made artificial!
How is it? Can you surmise?
It is the art
Of carving colourful flowers
From different fruits!
Nature is turned topsy-turvy!

Vouchsafe Yourself to God

If there's a pot with a hole
Water poured into it flows out whole.

When in water is immersed this pot
Water in the pot is fully got.

In this world money is enough never
But if you vouchsafe yourself to God
Happiness fills you for ever and ever!

A Crow

A crow winged to a woodland

And met a colourful cackling band

That met on the banks of Colorado

To listen to the discourse of Mr Bombadilo

Who boomed across the blue deep

In a white red maroon ship

Faster than light faster than sleep.
