Haiku 

[ Written by me in 1986 ] 

 

1
The river dances ahead
with Joy for meeting
the Ocean, the Vast.

2
I look into the sky,
blue and vast,
absorbed in its infinitude.

3
O the setting Sun,
you bring unto us
the sweet hopes for tomorrow.

4
O the crescent Moon,
the faint promise of golden Light
out of darkness.

5
The full Moon floods
this burning earth with the nectar
of the sweet dream light.

6
O the lonely evening star,
forerunner
of the coming multitude.

7
Dark clouds came covering all sky,
and left showering on earth
drops of Grace.

8
Those distant hills
almost lost in the horizon
look like ancient dreams.

9
Come, O Tempest,
and destroy,
for the advent of the New Creation.

10  

The silent horizon and

the chirping of the birds :

a joy in contrast.

 

11

O distant mountain,
a hermit meditating
through millennia.

12
Sweet little birds,
winged angels upon earth  
of joy, beauty and freedom!

13
The white herons
pass across the sky, 
manifesting the Divine.

14
The unseen cuckoo sings,
emanating
blissful sweetness all around.

15
The Sun rises, dispelling darkness:
the inner Sun
shall rise in us.

Haiku II

[ Written by me in 1986 ] 

 

 16

 The flower is 

 beautiful, ethereal: 

 but the root is in the mud. 

17 

 Flowers blossom,

 and amid all discord,

 bring the message of Beauty.

18 

Flowers blossom and spread

fragnance —  man has not learnt —

his follies smell foul.

19 

Flowers blossom for the Divine — 

 

man plucks them 

 

to garland his ego. 

 

20 

 

Flowers blossom and

 wither out shocked at 

 

 the ugliness in our world. 

 

21

 

 Flowers blossom, 

 

 for the Earth manifests

 

 the Divine hidden within. 

 

22  

 

 Flowers blossom and bring a Hope : 

 

 our cryptic heart lotus

 

 may too bloom.

 

23 

 

 Flowers reveal Beauty 

 

 for in the heart of Matter

 

 the Supreme dwells.

 

24 

 

 Flowers !

 

 The Grace of the Eternal Mother

 

 responding the Earth's call!
