a journey

so here i am
in"the land of serenity"
so i see my dream came true
so i felt my hands getting numb
unable to press through
the ink flows less
and the words are deformed
not so well constructed
the rocks fell down
as the wind blew
and the days pass by
i stopped writing
put a glove on
tried again
but nearly failed
this life
could it be any simpler
or such is its being
when amongst all there is
to cherish and to live
to see and to breathe
to absorb the warm beauty
of the valley that now lies
amongst aged and as far
as one could remember
have lived these mighty roars
that make not a sound
as the wind blew
the rocks fell down
they made not a sound
as the river crossed another
an age long journey
and the stream flew
they still flow with icy hands
knocking over pieces of dry land
where they left the unforgiving sand
that stood now daunting the valley
i stopped again
drifted a while
took on my favorite path
and came here
the valley where lies
beyond my deepest conscience

this love so beautiful
and not too
did these trees forever stood
the way they now
staring into your eye
spreading each branch
so witheringly they look
yes they haunt
when you see yourself
amongst the life that bloomed
luscious and living they stood
when the cold penetrated
and quietened the hemisphere
only the wind blew
now so loud
face wide open
like a shadow
that was set free
and danced here and there
all by itself
into the valley
where the wind does
accompany the river
till one could resist
from being tempted
to retrace the path
that was left behind
in search for nothing
nothing that would make a difference
or would it maybe
if tomorrow i go back
to find
that shadow
would it dare to come
would it momentarily
blind my vision
as the wind blew
and as fast as it could
would it blow too
my mind
now scattered around
like a hungry boar
searching for something to feed on
life could it be any simpler
or this is how it was going to be

the snow came down the valley
like little white pearls it flew here and there
covering the dry land with beauty and love
slowly it descends in the quite of the night
leaving not a need for the morning sun

Spring...

when did you seep in
as the ice melted
after months long winter

and wasn't it just a while ago
when the snow fell
and the children danced
while the women laughed
and this beauty
that lay right before my eyes
got covered and lost its charm
like the mystic brown tree
covered in a blanket of snow

when did you seep in
oh shy spring
melted the snow
right before my eyes
did i realize?
did i hear the sound
of the birds passing by
did i feel the scent
or saw the colors change
from rusty brown and white
to red blue and green
who did you ask
before you came by
with your melodious song
ringing loud in my ears
like echoes of each passing day

when did i see the river flow down
changing to water on empty ground
a patch of dry land
moistened now perfectly well
when did you plant the seed
did i realize
when the first flower came
and scented the valley
did i see the blushing tree
slowly spreading its leaves
and the warm shy bud
playing hide and seek
until i turned my eyes
so it could blossom to flower

who did you ask
before you came by
i was perfectly seated
in my winter cot
soothing were winters
the doors well shut
under the fire light
did i forget to close them
and slept through the night
while the summer breeze
crawled into my room

the bird came flying
from a distant land
sat on my lap
taught me how to sing
the chirping songs of spring
in admiration i looked
with question in my eyes
will you come and go?
and leave me to fall

fall shall come by
as the spring came unknown
for such is its being
said the chirping soul

who did you ask
before you passed by

worry not O Maid
i shall pass too
before you shall know
the flowers will shy
and the leaves shall fall
before you doze off
fall shall come by
and put you back to sleep
in your winter cot
