Lessons of Life (LOL)

(Hey LOLers!  This poem is written by my English teacher whom I always look up to..... What better blend then my IDEAL WRITING about my LOVE? ^__________^ ) Dance a dance O Mighty One Let it be one paralleled by none Gazing at the distant skies, my hopeful eyes, Wait to see thy tantalising twirls; thy unique and unrivalled style  Spin oh spin; dance; O dare We’ve heard you dance without a care. In my dreams I did hear once, The thunderous tapping of thy feet I tremble… quiver at the very memory  Yet revere thee and thy  Long and matted, knotted tresses,  The snake swirling around thy neck And even more thy awe- inspiring, the Third… majestic gaze. Dance your dance… Divine One They say, you’d dance and all will bloom We’ll see a new beginning; a new moon I wait for the turn of events, ever so patiently What’s the delay O Heavenly? Churn this earthly, worldly grudge And restore the eternal balance of life for once I wait

He is life. I love Him. I'm Destroyed. And, find, only destruction my way ahead. I'm not Destroyed because He doesn't love me back. I'm Destroyed because He does. My Shiva, The Destroyer. He, my Lord, destroys for the Greater Good, He'll destroy if He loves you, they say. And I, The Ego, so worldly, let myself be Destroyed. He wasn't destroying me. He was destroying for me. I destroyed myself. I'm not powerful enough to save myself. I'm just weak enough to destroy myself. Each time The Destroyer destroys for me The Ego will destroy me. There is no way out, no safe way out. I can't be rescued from myself. I'll be hurt, I'll be Destroyed. My love for The Destroyer is Eternal. What better, Than The Destroyer and The Destroyed put together? I'm Destroyed, But, I'm His. And, that hurts, But, that's exactly what I want to be. His.

He wanted to be mature, Without hair above his lips, He could do it, He was sure, Before the time slips. Catching a fish from a pond, Showed the honorable sign of maturity, And improved his daddy’s bond, With him, he had the surety.  Abhorring to be caught by the chin, Detesting being called a baby, He wanted to grow up like his kin, Fully fledged he wanted to be. Looking at the glistening water, With his sparkling eyes he sat, With a whole lot of matter, And a fishing rode on the mat. Glancing upon his aim, With wasn’t really visible though, He wanted a fish to claim, His maturity he wanted to show. He thought of the priceless moment, When he would brag of his victory, He won’t render a hint, Of the catch’s mystery.  Brooding over the liberation, From being a kiddo, he tried, To catch a fish for commemoration, And put it in the water bucket before it died. He daydreamt too much With his hands in that of hi

Their roads crossed. A definite time, measurable journey and limited aid. Pre-planned incidents, and unseekable strength. But, their roads crossed. Tied to strings, to the hands of Him, puppets they were. They met because He intended them to. A definite time, measurable journey and limited aid. Yet, they met, to yield something greater. Out in the heat, tired and exhausted. Walking their paths, with their own motives. Struggling through it, until the glimpse of a shade. A definite time, measurable journey and limited aid. An old tree with each leaf so defined, Exhibiting it's power to render a cool shade. And, hadn't they walked bravely enough, To rest under it and converse to get closer? "I want to gather the power to complete the journey" Her aim was well defined like the leaves, His was like the waters in the roots, "I want to go up, to my maker."

I saw others on the branch too, they were there to fly, I was there to learn, to practice and try. They all have 2 wings, I didn't have the other, I resisted for a while, but, then, I recalled mother. All I wanted to convey, was that I was wholesome, It was no misery, no laughter stock, And, the time had come! I stumbled, I admit, I tried and I failed, Yet with mom as my other wing, Strong I was hailed! Again and again, I did try, I fell, I got up, Trying to touch the sky! Seeing others on their own, I did back down, Only to come back again, with more motivation and less of a frown. Stumbling, falling, getting up, went on for years, Till one day I could fly Leaving behind all my fears. I flew silently, But it was a loud gesture, No one spoke that day, covered in silence's vesture Yet everyone heard, What no one spoke It was in the air beneath my wings, And it's effortless strokes. I was independent, That's what they hea
