Daring Time

You granted me childhood
Allowed me to err

You showed me life
Revealing the secrets

You read my soul
Unwarranted love

*******

You took a path
I could not follow

A right reclaimed
and granted
a thousandfold

*******

Time, re-created,
Is now a gate onto the future

And beyond that gate
Your future has now begun

Ama Dablam – Mother’s Necklace

Mother’s necklace

Evening star
On canyon rim
Orion’s image
In Nepal land
A mountain’s love
Were you, my child

Motionless trees
Stood the sky
On moonlit nights
For you, my child

Horizon your prayer
Waterfall your music
The splendor cathedral
Your life, my child

Ama Dablam, a necklace offered
To me, your flesh and blood

When you said, a day resplendent
Fatality broke your song

In Loving Memory Poems

Nostalgia

as i look him in the eyes…
leading me in the pinnacle of faith dancing with reverence…
saw the cloud eating him away…
neither he fought it, nor he stayed…
saw him fleeting far from me gave that smirk and wave “goodbye” too…
he took my heart, but live within my soul…
i couldn’t reach him anymore.
walking away just that though i still want him to stay.
he got away with everything i have, without leaving a piece.
nostalgia…
seeing Euphoria…
