You might wonder, why I keep writing you poems 

Day after day,

one after the other.

A belief, word by word,

a sentence would travel the miles,

Unraveling a message of love.............

AN UNSENT LETTER

Near and dearest love,
who drove far away,
Your wealthy health, ensures strength in will.
A year gone with the fall of The Green lass, since,
words spoken meant stories different, entire.
With the setting of The Sun today, an era passed too,
Yet, space between us, remembers boundaries well built.

Though, absence of you, rockets the ranging ambiance,
My pulse has a faint trace of your smile; still.
Long nights do rattle the coiled strings of memory,
to day-light concealed, a muffled cry caught-
midway, cloaks my throat, sourcing hollow guts.

The world reminds a little much of you and,
my weakened heart weeps an ode;
forgetting not, the good times together.

Ah! Pen a letter, my hope lies there.
Like the dark clouds full with rain, I am
mindful thoughts on what might have been us.

Papa likes Yanni too, recently;
He would have loved you, definitely,
Share the same cup of music, maybe.
Oh! My mother liked you already;
Recite the hymns together would you both have.

Scripted on solace, a family would have been, ours.
That choice right, bended, looted the-
portrait of a home woven, have I never forgotten.
Forever will I remember the well hedged amber eyes, that shone bright, I know.

And may you always stay blessed rightfully.
As this love from the other side, can never demise;
Letters that reach you not, are written perpetually;

With love,
J.George

L'Amour

Why enthrall at the decoy of L'Amour?

Ah! din't you notice that Cupid is blind and winged?!

Marvel at the split paint, an art to some eye.


Unstrung is your lyre of hope, sombre your music.

Drowned, your mirth in yesterdays dirt;

Living the illusion you spun with care.


Alas! When he flapped his large wings,

you lost appetite to become a bird.

Voices of fear by night, faces of dread by dawn.

Caught in the fire of reality, a sparkle you ignored.

Now, the heat of embers dry up the oasis of your comfort.

Why did love stop you from loving??


Rejuvenate, reincarnate, revive.

blind to hull and liberty weighed on shoulders,

he flies, searching a home for stay.

Ah!din't you notice, that Cupid is blind and winged.

Discern the truth your mirror reflects in this universe.

Overlook quondam with valor and mettle.

Trust the stay attached to your mast, in thunderstorms.

the current will guide you, being your patronage.

Pluck your broken strings, heal the wounds of his bow.

Paint the torn canvas green, attend the hearts waiting.


Rejoice in the gifts he showered.

Know him right, before owning him tight.

let not love stop you from loving anymore..!!!

Seasons

When the first Winter wind grazes your hair,

Remember! O Remember!

Nightmares can be frozen forever...

When the Spring weaves your day;

Remember! O Remember!

What was once doomed, can always bloom....

When the Autumn shades, hides your way;

Remember! O Remember!

The path is still out there, waiting for your steps...

When the Summer wind takes life away,

Remember! O Remember!

Dusk and hurts are inevitable.....

But,

When the gentle rains touches the parched Earth;

Remember! O!Never Forget !

Nothing Lasts Forever...!!!!

What was once doomed, can always bloom....!!!!!!!

A Tiny Step

One at a time, one at a time, they will soar high;
Parting the grounds of comfort.

One at a time, one at a time, the stars shall twinkle;
Bedazzling the bleak canvas of night.

One at a time, one at a time, blossom, itself discovers;
Blooming spring of flowers spreading fragrant joy.

One at a time, one at a time. Now, let me take steps few,
To the castle afar, amidst the jungle thick.

One at a time, one at a time, May I set me free,
All that is caged, cobwebbed desires of distant corners to light.

One at a time, one at a time, may I learn to trust again.
Hoping, hope in the paradigms of an ordinary day.
One at a time, one at a time, will I live again fully, yes….!!!!
One at a time, one at a time, will I soar high,
Parting the grounds of comfort..!!!!

Lullaby

Let your eyes be damp no more.
Let this smile linger forever.
Those memories be entombed in time.
Emotions sealed in heart, sleep to its beat,
Lulling you to a world of hope.
Hush!! Mon coeur...

Let your lullabies be the rains

But not your silent tears.

Hold on to this night once more, dear

Tomorrow they will be long gone.

A new dawn of sunshine in wait.

Hush!! Mon coeur...

Let me take this watch over you.

Shut your eyes tight with trust.
Light is lurking behind the darkness, baby.
Dream for there is an animated life,
Of love behind those blinds.
Hush!! Mon coeur...

Let my words guide you for a while.

The door is open, enter with no fear.

You will be alright, I promise.

Sleep darling, even pain needs its slumber.

Hope sand bliss are on your way.

Hush!! Mon coeur...

Let the darkness take its treat.

Stars are whispering your name right.
Let the winds carry the song for you.
Wherever you go to, let the night
Sing you home, make you feel better.
Hush!! Mon coeur...

Let the hurts forget its host.

Life is but a mysterious gift.

Magic and miracles do exist, my love

Sleep the strain away baby, let the night

Bless you with her mysteries.

Hush!! Mon coeur...
