COLORED DREAMS

 COLORED DREAMS

Humans search for comfort a lot.

Seek luxurious life realities alert,

Limitless hunger for prosperity,

Borderless land asks for security, (1)

 

Astonishes human appetite fire,

Love the Earth, humans acquire,

Claim the ocean and the sea fail,

Occupy the mountains, the river well, (2)

 

Amasses gold, silver, and jewelry,

Dig mines for diamond life, ivory,

Green eyes, animal life in danger,

Hunt and poach, inherit anger, (3)

 

Depleted forest, or diminishing,

Bald mountain peaks, surprising,

Verdant valley now barren field,

Humans' lust thoughtless shield, (4)

 

Lost fresh air, blue stream, hurt,

Stolen perpetual silence is alert,

Sickness diseases crop up sadly,

Life fights to survive, act madly, (5)

 

Tenet altered adulterated drift,

Torments the heart realize a gift,

Repentance, a healing process,

Humans succeed, efforts impress, (6)

 

Green Earth and conservation,

Peace and happiness relations,

Douses smoldering anger calmly,

Transformed is humanity balm, (7)

 

Finds the essence of short life true,

Smiles colored dreams life view,

Sunrise, inviting branches glory,

A forgotten past erased worries. (viii)

RIDDLE SURFACE

 

RIDDLE SURFACE

Life is mysterious, hallucination, option,

The difference between fact and fiction,

The seed dream carries a fruit flower,

Branches and leaves unfold, shower, (1)

 

For whom are humans sad? rebellious,

They torment the lives, capricious,

Proclaims a protagonist plays villain,

Clarion for peace, war human slain, (2)

 

Trumpet for nature, health, foster,

Drink poison, inhale pollution fear,

Muster courage, relentless in a fight,

Modern life, garbage waste, sight (3)

 

Mourns the death, garland ornate,

Throws bay, newborn to connect,

Plentitude of food, lavish lifestyle,

A hand begs for a morsel of food, (4)

 

Eyes glisten, shabby, torn clothes,

Yet they smile, play, and are worth

Life, the metaphor of survival, ends.

Extinguishes apparently, defends, (5)

 

Growing cattle trees, spectacular,

Slaughter for selfish life, particularly,

Humans drink cow's milk detect,

His choice of dish, beef in quest. (6)

 

Not talent, merit, sanctimonious,

Color, birth, or religion, omnibus,

Promise to break a quick drama,

Drink O heart, dance a panorama, (7)

 

Unspoken words circulate precisely,

Riddle surface the fact is a surprise,

Kith and kin love and hug wealth,

A lone life all evaded long length. (viii)

DREAM AND THE STREAM

 DREAM AND THE STREAM

 

Surreptitiously, the heart wishes a story,

Failure and frustration confluence history,

Desires devastate the heart, occasionally,

Flower blossoms, honey bee phenomenal, (1)

 

The upheaval and downfall continue well,

Accommodations and acceptance prevail,

Failure and fallacy starkly contrast witness,

Hues of dew bright sunshine yet impress, (2)

 

Friend turns into a foe, changes the mind,

Soothing words, healing touch fail to find,

Years after wounds heal, embraces dwell,

Diminish the animosity, anger hurts, quell, (3)

 

Sadness and sorrows revisit quite often,

Happiness and love accompany life,

Bitterness and a better life, a dilemma,

Dream and reality, possibilities, know. (4)

 

Dream flows the stream is placid, quiet,

Net effortlessly desires a sunrise duet,

Dazzling streak of light, enumerate vividly,

Change the fate destiny bends actually, (5)

 

Coconut, tall, bread, and water signify,

The human toils, the fruitful day notifies,

A stream, water canal whispers,

Materializes dream face reality lovely, (6)

 

Nature and nurture, human life to prosper,

Early morning to evening, he discovers,

Class of fact and fiction fallacy perish,

Life is the struggle vanquish cherish, (7)

 

Slumber commit blunder or plunder,

The stream and dream flow induce,

Proactive life procrastination reduces (viii)

TROUBLED HEART

 

TROUBLED HEART

Immaculately dressed, smiling guise,

Sorrows and sadness grow precise,

A tormented soul wishes to express,

And eyes speak volumes of distress, (1)

 

Silent, sober, polite swallows poison,

Humans face obstacles, fail reasons,

Infinite strength to meet challenges,

Cruel is the fate to smuggle a revenge, (2)

 

Hope is the boat to escape the river,

Sink without a cause, life drowns here,

No cries, a wish for immediate help,

The harsh future unfolds sadly, shape, (3)

 

Unspoken words, churning thoughts,

Blank eyes speak nothing; no results.

Harmony is a fiction, happiness fluid,

The morning dew dazzles love shield, (4)

 

Broken dreams pale in color remind,

Life moves through a cavern to find,

Lost the path at a loss, contemplate,

The sojourn of life, an example, fate, (5)

 

Impermanent are fame and fortune,

Believes human destiny opportune,

As water bubbles burst, fact defies,

Wild mind turns senile, mess belies, (6)

 

The test of life, a lesson, an experience

Humans grow mature tackle sense,

The cloud, shrouded mind, dissipates,

Cleanse the suspicions, doubts, wait, (7)

 

Patience is the key to survive, impact,

Pacify troubled heart, stability first,

Discover the treasures, love golden,

Forget tumults, a bright life molten. (viii)

NIGHT ENDS AND WHISPERS

 NIGHT ENDS AND WHISPERS

The sun sank in the western sky, hues,

Tired limbs, humans rest, hearts accuse,

Fabulous future unfolded and imprint,

Events of the scintillating day, instinct, (1)

 

Met fame and fortune or admirations,

Life is pivotal, crucial, a denomination,

Profited a lot, lost, totally the paradox,

Temptation capitulate mind the influx, (2)

 

Linger remnants of smiles, happiness,

Encounter agony, tortures, distresses,

Miracle, the bruised heart healed well,

Peaceful slumber steals quickly prevail, (3)

 

Freezing night, chilling wind, full moon,

Silence rules, shimmer leaves the boon,

Warm blanket, fire in the hearth glow,

Delightful dinner, inert body yet show, (4)

 

Lost the consciousness breathing light,

Unfolds dreams lead to kingdom white,

A hundred thousand lotus bloom, love,

An imaginary paradise, utopian it drove, (5)

 

Perpetual happiness or pleasure thrives,

Infinitesimal anticipations hope to revive,

Missing hurt spirit, bruised heart sings,

Views the azure sky, life watches its wings, (6)

 

Far off from fear, burden, responsibility,

Pass the spirit through clouds, beauty,

Endless hope, limitless dream touches,

Night curtain is down, a soul searches, (7)

 

A streak of light yet sunrise announces,

Get up, O human, be alert and trounce,

Night ends and whispers, another day,

Dreams fade like morning mist dismay. (viii)

CATCH SIGHT OF PEACE

 

CATCH SIGHT OF PEACE

The river of life is wavy and turbulent,
Crocodile fears underneath, potent,
The horror of a flurry of flood current,
Life fights desperately, flows virulently, (1)

Obstacles, problems, escape, remote,
Sheer courage and power promote,
Torrential rain, thunderstorm frights,
Human life sails zigzag, future bright, (2)

Rudderless lost destination objective,
The boat of life moves smoothly, strive,
Many a dream and aspiration anchor,
Reality, the disaster erases the matter, (3)

Not humans, friend or foe, animosity,
The soul sails diligently, shows beauty,
Alone in the unknown world, surprise,
Lack peace and happiness yet precise, (4)

Violence, war, anarchy, or animosity,
The dirt of the river denies security,
The heart prays for sunrise in distress,
Bright sunlight spread fading darkness, (5)

From the muddy waters lotus bloom,
The Earth gets united, prospers soon,
The orange-red sky turns azure, attracting,
Flocks of birds flying, chirping, in fact, (6)

The lifeboat finds direction, explores,
Face criticism and suspicion deplore,
Stable and stubborn life fight winner,
Found solace perfectly, sight enamor, (7)

Netting wishes for the future, nearer,
Catching sight of peace, life at the shore,
Inexpressible experience or pleasure,
Precious life finds tranquility, treasure. (viii)

INVITATION AND SMILE

 

INVITATION AND SMILE

Moistened eyes watch plights hide,

Drink tears silently, all help provide,

Touch the inner chamber of the heart,

Sympathy gains momentum in fact, (1)

 

A touch miraculously heals soft feel,

Humans cry for others. often reveal,

Erase remorse, tickle spirit to smile,

Take enormous effort to erode defile, (2)

 

Share the unequal burden or panic,

Listen to bruised heart, state tragic,

Conveys the promise to assist well,

Confess commonality of pain dwell, (3)

 

Confide the sunrise tomorrow pink,

Assure impatient souls forget to sink,

Desperation is a self-destruction drive,

Gather courage and strength derive, (4)

 

Narrate life is hazardous and revive,

To meet perils, troubles, and survive,

Swim across turbulent water, shore,

Save the precious life, dreams allure, (5)

 

The fallen flower and uprooted tree,

A seed answer to creation time free,

Dream broken, and reality alters life,

Discolored sky, the Sun sweeps strife, (6)

 

Muddy water of the pond, the lotus,

Fragrant shows purity, not ominous,

Honey bees collect nectar, fly: darts,

Patterns of butterfly wings and art, (7)

 

Book of life, tear, inspiration, light,

Luminous invitation and smile elite,

Defeat animosity, suspicion, and change

The mysterious world and life haze. (viii)
