~ Be My Poetry ~


Originally uploaded by HORIZON

If you know how much I missed you
Would you allow me to write you?
I feel that I’m a pot so empty
In airy thoughts that fills it
If I could scribble you in happiness
Then gloss hope like a painter
Words to float in colors
And on your empty space
The darkness are sparkled
In countless glittering stars
I was calling
On you, through my emptiness
Not to fulfill the void
But to carry me within its surface
So I accept all the layers
On whatever life is gifting
In this understanding to rise beyond all
Now you know how much I missed you
And all the phases I’ve been without you
Just be my poetry
Allowing me to write you

Living Again


Gonu came into our live
Shattered so many lives
The rain that we so much awaited
Flowed into us immensely
From mountains, strong river flowed
Digging its road
Snatching what ever is on its way
Wrecking away our homes
Leaving us out of shelter
To begin our lives out of scratch
Yet it can not wreck us apart
We are united for our country
Still most we are united for each other
Gonu, know that we are in acceptance
Of all God's ways
Gripping on nothing else but faith
As you came and gone
Know that you have not snatched our lives
We stand here Living again

Cyclone Gonu Oman- Muscat

Many thanks for asking about me. Im well with my family. We left our house before the storm. Coming to our house was so hard seeing our country in wreckage. However, its the people who makes the country, everyone standing by eachother was heartfelt. Pending the pieces is taking time, its being here for one another will sure tender the pain and agony away.

Thank you all for taking time to ask about me....

On the beach of life
Life is calling me
To take each step of it
So slow as it comes
It falls, incidents
Just like my veil
On my shoulder, settling softly
I have to carry it through
Wind whistles, airy tunes
Through this beach of life
Fiddles every hair of existence
With all this, thoughts are drifting
And here I am
Watching my waves
Taking turns to end
I inhale, beauty and sores
Of what life has touched
The wind continues to blow
The waves trails back and fro
Of whatever life stores
