Is concentrated in his eyes
From where shoots
Of scented emotions
Are sent on a holy mission.

EYES
Eyes are fond witnesses
Of amorous encounters
They carry the films
Which we fondly
Keep playing replaying
Eyes are the arrows
Which shoot down hearts
And plant wounds
Which more than pain
Emit joy even when they recover
A man’s entire being
Is concentrated in his eyes
From where shoots
Of scented emotions
Are sent on a holy mission
The body is a mysterious language
But its text is written
In the eyes which
Like oracles
Speak nothing but a man’s truth.
***
AUSPICIOUS MOMENTS
Life is an ocean
Made of small droplets of time
These are moments
Which are fleeting away
Never to return
However hard you may try.
Whatever happens
May never happen again
If you wish something
And it happens
Leave everything aside
And catch that moment.
For, never shall it return
Meetings with loved ones
Happen but only once
For, stars have to change
Their orbits to make it possible
Men in their ignorant indulgences think
Time will come again
But dear,
Sacred moments
Like the auspicious times
May never visit again.

Eyes open , or closed, or half closed ,
Body bearing the calm and contented posture,
Sitting cross legged ,
A sweet smile dancing on lips,
A wordless communication,
With the macrocosm,
Compassion for all,
Sentient or insentient,
Wisdom manifests itself
Wrapped in ubiquitous love,
Eyes shutters half open,
Touching every heart ,
The very being is enough,
Words seem redundant.
