My Poems

New Year The last day of the year Passes by silently Without a tear Without a cheer

At the gate, All heads turned towards the TV monitors Watching a football game   Except for me   Not interested in sports   Reading my book   Listening to the background Christmas music   Like a blind man among a crowd of people   Which made me think   What do the blind see?   And the deaf hear?   What do the mute sing?

Way back in school   My teacher said   "Everyday, meditate in front of a lamp   Till when you close your eyes   You can see the flame"   For a long time  I confused the phenomenon   With Imagination and Skill   But today I realized   That she was talking about Oneness!

I don't know what it weathered   I don't know when it came   But the wishes inside were still warm!
