‘a love story- a harmony / of, / shadow of light / playing /hide and seek’
Engulfed Love
Dancing Hibiscus,
beautifies
already eclipsed earth
rare cosmic trance,
a love story - a harmony
of,
shadow of light
playing
hide and seek,
amidst
musical vibration of primordial sound
flowering the infinite sky
alluring the moon,
dreamy stars
to join
the ring of fire
slowly aligning
in yogic romance.

Buddha’s Daughter
Every night I turn into a butterfly
loving the blue moon light
I fly, fluttering up in the sky
to meet the honey bees resting in their beehives
interlocking combs near Adam's peak
I bow to the
sacred footprint
Buddha left - in the sacred mountain
of lucid dreams.

Nirvana
An immersive art installation in the silvery sky,
strawberry moon-delightful garland of glazing stars,
contemplative shimmering lights,
the super bloom, ultimate bliss,
a spiritual landscape- against the backdrop of infinite void,
gripping emptiness of cosmic meditation;
mysterious milky way - many paths - profound philosophy
mystical silence of a purple night - royalty, grace, liberation.
