Two Poems: 1. Silence; 2. Body

Join date : 04/06/2013

1. SILENCE

Flowers don't bloom
in tribute to
builders' apathy

the trees are dying
they too know they'll be felled
or the heat will kill

the concrete rises
calamity too will rise
none talk the ruins they bring

2. BODY

The body is precious
a vehicle for awakening
treat it with care, said Buddha

I love it's stillness
beauty and sanctity
here and now

sink into its calm
to hear the whispers in all
its ebbs and flows

erect, penetrate
the edge of life and loss
return to wholeness

Ram Krishna Singh

Poem by Shoshana Vegh

Mourning

You see a smile
I see tears
Continuing until the crying stops
Never leaving
The water came after me
Without stopping
As it is written
"For a whole year you will remember
And after that for the whole of your life
When the rest of the remainder
of your flesh and blood
relatives have departed."

The …

Angels Bless Us In Sleep

If you would touch my eye lids with the tips of your fingers
for the remainder of my days I would see only the good in the world

If you would touch my body with the tip of your tongue
All disease would be vanquished in one second of time

If you would call my name it would be music to my …

Poem by Ernesto Kahan

From a mother to her special son

advance our time
in the tumultuous darkness
of my waking dreams,
in the gentle look
of your mystery

you made me your mother
in eternal persistence,
ocean of nights,
devotion in wakefulness
and irresistibly true tenderness.

Sing son and ours, reinvent...!
On the long way
where the …

I surrender to you

A night without contours
My consciousness fades away undisturbed,
I can’t speak
I looked at you
Your body twisted.

You were surprised by the …

Poezi nga Grigor Jovani

SHTËPIA E BREDHARAKUT

Shtëpia jote nuk ka mure rrethuese,
as porta të mbyllura,
dritare me baxhure.
Nuk ka as themele, të ngulet diku
në tërë atë qiell.

Rrugaçi Diell!

Poem by Jagdish Prakash

UNDEFINED

Abyss of abstraction
Stretched from nothing to nothing
A gap within thoughts,
Thoughts of void, a grey horizon
Like an asphalt laden road
Lying shamelessly between bare footsteps
Under immensity called sky
Hanging precariously over space
Challenging thoughts, challenging colours, challenging silence, …
