Helpless Present
Why today
Shining Sun
feels disabled
To erase black
spots in time space
Inner darkness
is crying loud
Why
Cool &
soothing moonlight
Is caught in a
fix to satisfy
Inner
sub-conscious mind's vision
Why
Water! The source
of life is carrying
Flowing with
structure of death on its chest
Why species in
water are still thirsty
Why
The East winds
seem pouring
tears
Perhaps forgot
to sing songs of love
Songs in
separation echoing in air
Why
Mother Earth is
dripping tears in distress
Carrying the
load of our cruel attitude
Concrete
sky-scrapers are swelling
It's lush green
fields & pastures
Light will flash
When our inner
flame may get lit
Sun of soul will
rise to shine
Moon of minds
may sprinkle cool rays
Love & peace
may dance all around
(c)Jagjit Singh Jandu(Jit)
As I Feel & Wish
Living life
In all its
phases
Enjoying all
ecstasy
And painted
sorrows
Scattered over
all stages
Lived all
Colours of
relations
And close
friendship
Found none to
care
Selfish motives
confront
Tried to pour
out
All pains
through my verses
In a hope to
shun all darkness
It engulfed my
being tight
As pages if life
got painted muse
Feel fed up
With everything
I loved or lived
Just wish, you
bless me
That my beats
feel laced with
Recitation of
your sacred name
Maybe it
spiritual
I wish to
experience you behind
The closed lids
of my eyes
Feel ecstasy in
watching you
In your infinite
shapes & colours
(c) Jagjit Singh Jandu(Jit)
Sleep & Suggestion
Sleep has never
been
friendly with me
Ideas floating
in mind
Memories
flashing bright
Your remembrance
Always soothes
my mind
And my being
feels at heart,
Ecstasy in
playing with insight
You asked me,
sleep with peace
Read your poems
was the plight
My soul lost in
an ecstatic dance
It was You in
virtual substance
What a strange
suggestion
Intoxicating
& full of passion
As if my poems
are sleeping pills
Ease my mind,
save from peril
A great honour
to my poetry
Blended with
love extraordinary
Words were
simple but soothing
No sleep, but
love roses start blooming
