Spirit of love

Eyes wide open, yet can’t grasp its form,
Ears attentive, yet its melody is unborn.
Beyond mere touch, it resides,
Yet touches all with its invisible tide.

Not a mere glow atop the hill,
Nor a shadow lurking still.
Within, yet everywhere it roams,
Binding hearts, making them free to roam.

In this world, love’s spirit does flow,
Make it yours, let its essence grow.
With him, along, make your journey soar,
In the embrace of love, forevermore.

Ladder

Success, failure, steps on life’s ladder,
moment, a delicate balance, matter.
Firm feet grounded, stability found,
Fear, hope, two sides, profound.

Believe in self, respect the world’s embrace,
In balance, your journey finds its place.

Sky

In hues unseen, the eye’s delight,
In melodies unheard, the ear’s respite.
Flavors fade, the tongue’s embrace,
In silence, thoughts find their grace.

Amidst the clamor, he stands tall,
Unbound by the world’s enthralling thrall.
His heart, a vast and boundless sky,
Welcomes all, without a sigh.
