Today, the very life of Life! - Sanskrit Poem

"Look to this day, for it is Life

The very life of Life

In its brief course

lie all the realities of existence

The joy of growth

The splendour of action

The glory of power

For yesterday is but a memory

And tomorrow is only a vision

But today well lived

makes every yesterday

a memory of happiness

And every tomorrow

a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day".






Moonshine..magic or madness? - by Tisha



Oh velvet moon, rising above the city's lights,

Illuminating the slumbering night

Look down on my shattered soul's plight

And lift my spirits to your height

My heart is burning with pain,

In everlasting suffering

I patiently therefore remain

Awaiting your purifying cleansing.
 

Catalyser of passions and illusions,

Satellite of earth, lust infusion,

Magic or madness, fountain of delusion?

Oh what a bloody confusion !


Reflecting icily its light
On dancing shadows on cobbled streets
Oblivious to our plight
And to what or whom it cheats
Springs up wounded hearts to flight
Hair blown, throats parched with thirst
To the recesses of the night
Crying over love's Verlust

By Crimsonwreath


On the dancing shadows of the cobbled street,
My hair wind-blown and humid,
My heart racing against my chest,
in my quest to find you,
expectation, excitement,
at the possible conquest,
of untrodden recesses
of body and mind,
Moonshine reflection,
Magic seduction,
lust infusion
adrenalin injection.
