When We Meet Again
One day---
When we meet again
I’ll give you flowers grown in my heart,
Fresh and pure, and without blemish
Nourished from the fountain of my eyes
And songs from birds that know my love for you
Butterflies that pour out their fragrance,
And the wind and sun that watch over you
As you sleep in eternal beauty.
Some day----
When we shall meet again,
We’ll romance in the garden of tranquil ocean,
We’ll sing with the symphony of Mozart,
Our voices so loud and sweet,
It will awaken the dead,
And the sick and dying will find strength,
And the afflicted and despised
Shall learn to forgive and love again.
Tomorrow, like yesterday---
When we meet again,
Let all glory and praise
Be to the love that conceived us
From the word of the spirit
From the emptiness into flesh
That feels, loves, hates,
And kills and rebels,
But never abandoned
By the merciful hands,
That mold life from clay.
Forever, we’ll be one---
When we shall meet again,
We’ll be the blooming flowers
Whose sweetest fragrance pours
From the water falls on the mountain top,
Pouring down with sweet music
Dashing upon us, just two
Bathing in the quiet stream, hugging
The corners of the deep valleys
As the sun strolls quietly by,
Changing the colors of the sky
And the shadows painted on the valleys.
We shall never part----
When we meet again,
Like children of innocence
And purity of heart and purpose,
We’ll play in the clouds above the skies,
And sleep in the bosom below tranquil streams.
Day after day, blessed with each other,
Rich with each other,
We’ll know happiness through each other;
As we awake from deep slumber,
To embrace and know life’s greatest gift,
The love we’ve for each other.

This poems ponders about what is really important in life---gold or charity of heart! |
Beautify Your Spirit
Beautify your spirit
Not with gold and silver
But with a charity of heart.
Enrich your body not with—
A pretty garment
But with a veil of happiness.
Given to you freely
Not from the greatness of your work,
Because no measure of your hand
Can account for all the grace
And happiness you freely enjoy.
Understand that no matter
Your achievements and glory
True happiness is a gift—
That‘s given to all ---
Not because we are good,
But because life is worthless
Without a glimmer of happiness.
Thus, open your hand,
Share your bounty and happiness
With your neighbors –
Even with your enemies,
Just like the soothing wind dancing
And singing across land and sea,
Brings you hope and happiness
Even when you don’t deserve it. |
We all have friends, but you're lucky and fortunate if you have one that loves you unconditionally like a mother's love for her child.
Friends
Friends that I adore
But one----
You lie besides me
In the soft awakening sun.
You bring out the child in me;
You forgive my foolishness,
You make me strong and mighty
And set me free like a bird,
Yet, it’s only in your arms,
I know freedom.
Friends I envision,
Only you---
You see in me what others don’t
You share my jokes, my yoke,
My joy---my darkness,
And my brightness,
And in spite of it all
You’re my rock of Gibraltar.
Friends I pray to have
But One----
Blessed with patience and tolerance,
Gifted with beauty of angels
Walking among us with humility,
With her fragrance of roses,
And a candle lit room
Burning through the darkness
As if million of bright stars,
Lighted up the heavens.
