Mother earth

Sneh Singhvi
 
I am filled with beauty
And wonder.
With it’s orange glow,
The rising sun gives me
Warmth in the morning.
The orange glow
Spreads all over me,
Bringing out my beauty
In a thousand folds.
 
People get up early,
Before dawn,
To go down
The deep valleys
Or climb up
The tall mountains
To see my beauty
Mingled with the orange.
 
The birds are singing in
Sweet harmony
To celebrate the day.
The buds are opening into flowers
And bowing their heads
Honouring my beauty.
 
The trees are awake
After a lazy night’s sleep;
Ready to soak and drown
In day dreams.
 
The waves are moulding my mud
Into lovely shapes;
Rushing to touch
The vast and silent shores.
 
The oceans are
Shimmering orange;
Breathing in and out,
Off my sandy banks.
 
 
 
 
The blue water surrounding me
Is the secret to my beauty.
Keep my water dashing,
Splashing, leaping, and flowing in
Circles around me.
Cherish it.
 
Please don’t let it dry up.
I won’t be able to
Survive without my water,
Nor will the beauty and life
Living on me.
 
Dusk is here.
After a hot perspiring day
The sun is gliding down ready to
Take a dip in the cool sea water below.
 
The skyline is scattered with
Gold dust.
The drifting clouds, soaked in reds, pause to
Catch a glimpse of their
reflection in the blue waters below.
 
Within my silent self,
I feel the heavy weight
Of change.
I shiver.
However, I also feel the love
And kindness
Hiding in people’s hearts.
It takes weight off me
And I feel light again.
 
I hope you would
Take good care of me
And keep me spinning
In space
For a long, long time.
 

I surrender back to the start

With the first song at dawn, the world is brand new,
The sun bathes the buildings, the sky perfectly blue.  
The world is a mirror, what we so choose to see, 
Is an honest reflection of our reality. 

So as this new page is turned, we can look to the sun,
And realize our journey has just begun.
The path may be covered with thorns or gold,
Our experience is determined by the reality we hold.

The past is now over no need to look back, 
Those experiences made us richer, it's futile to focus on the lack.
Every moment is a gift from the divinity,
Each hardship a lesson, to teach us to be free.

My pain and my wounds opened my heart, 
I carry no pain or resentment, I surrender back to the start. 
To present the most authentic me to this beautiful land, 
Which bows at my feet and lends me a hand.

Through my darkest day and my longest night, 
I searched to find the most burning 
light. 
And as the truth unfolded and taught me to be.  
I learnt to love and honor me. 

As those mindsets of old have crumbled away,
I put in place the strong foundations that will show me the way. 
I will always turn my head to the beautiful light,
And leave behind the negative energies I used to fight. 

No more energy vampires will suck my soul, 
Taking me miles away from my most cherished goal.
Discipline, perserverance and focused thought, 
Will carry me to the highest mountain, the loftiest fort.

As I line up my challenges, one by one
And conquer each task, I bask in the sun.
And grow in stature, grow into me, 
Become an instrument of service, to help others to be.

A silent voice of kindness and love,

Like a beautiful bird kept in a cage,
Like a lion that wants to roar but is too afraid.
Like a fish that can no longer swim,
Like a roaming elephant that does not know where to begin.

Like a mother waiting to give birth,
Like god waiting for peace on earth.
Like being at a train station on a snowy day,
You wait around forever, then it never comes your way.

Every moment can be viewed as heaven or hell,
From the ego, or the heart you cast your spell.
One makes things magical, twinkly and light,
The other painful and heavy, an eternal fight.

What brings out your beauty from inside,
Those talents, your genius you so choose to hide.
A silent voice of kindness and love,
An internal surrender to the voice from above.

If I am honest, humble and true,
Provide service to others, the best I can do.
That will present my best self to this beautiful land,
and touch the heart of another by lending my hand.

Your life is a mirror

Studying the great laws one by one
Means my journey has really just begun
The universe works in the most beautiful way
To reunite us with all we have to say

When the pain seeps from every pore
When the body is weak, so incredibly sore
When the teardrop hangs deep in my soul
When I feel millions of miles from my greatest goal

Know that pain is the disharmony from the inside coming out
Those fears and impurities that constantly shout
Like an operation on the mind
It may feel harsh but it's incredibly kind

We were all built perfectly, strong and true
What we manifest comes down to your belief in you
Your life is a mirror of what's inside
Those impurities will never hide

Until each one has been shown the light of day
They will hang around and have their say
But if we truly believe in the abundance of this land
The gods will obey and lend a hand

Why does my heart continuously bleed?

Storm clouds rolling in
When does this freedom win
To smash the mold, uncover the seed
Why does my heart continuously bleed

Patience is the gift, the lesson is the truth
Honoring both will be of most use
You are exactly where you are meant to be
To learn the lessons to live harmoniously

With your most painful wound comes your greatest gift
The lesson if you take it that will give you the lift
To the higher realms of our existance
Choose to loose the resistance

Ground your feat firmly to the floor
Find your internal flame, your beautiful core
And let it speak to you kindly and embrace your your soul
As divinity glides through your spirit taking you swiftly to your goal.

Trying to hide

Stormy clouds rolling in,
Emotions raw, where do they begin.
The darkness has began to descend,
How do I turn to face it and make it my friend.

The switch has been flipped, the temperature raised,
Why do I react and feel so phased.
Where do I find the buddha deep deep inside,
He is ducking and diving and trying to hide.

I will catch him in the palm of my hand,
that naughty buddha he must understand.
Why does this witness inside of me tut,
As I pout and posture and start to strut.

A silent warrior you may choose to be,
But not when faced with tragedy.
That is when real warriors are brought to form,
In the wildest of winds during the harshest storm.

Deep into night

Falling embers, a burning flame
A voice inside whispering your name
Light and love and mystery
Surrounds my flame when my spirit is free

A candle burning ever so bright
Early morning and deep into the night
Gets cloudy when my energy is low
I loose my my inspirational light and inner glow

Quieting the mind and the heart
Sitting alone in the dark
Can be my bliss or my pain
Depends how I choose to play my game

Listening silently to the body is an honor to fulfil
Whatever is not working must be nurtured and allowed to heal
Surrendering to this place as tough as it may seem
Dispells the tension and restores your connection with the supreme

When you are off balance look inward once more
And choose your divinity which is humble and raw
And silently express gratitude for the gifts in this land
For every soul we must lend a hand

He will never leave our heart

I bow my head when they whisper his name
His legacy, his honor his eternal flame
Emanating warmth and love with every breath
He will never leave our hearts in life or death

His beauty and wisdom so profound to see
Which lives on every moment through his legacy
In the eyes of the children he has nurtured and grown
Who have always felt loved and never alone

And the five brothers, those beacons of light
That stayed close to Babajee in the darkness at night
Reflect the honor and courage of his beautiful soul
Fulfillng his eternal wish, his enduring goal

As generation after generation stand tall from his love


Even though he may be miles away
He brightens my smile every day

I want to be free

Clocks ticking I see the sun
My real story should have already begun
Heart open, dreams up High
Why is time just passing me by

Weak and lifeless heads in the shade
Questionning choices, paths taken and decisions made
Heavy head, heavy heart no time to just be
From these restrictive chains I want to be free

A land of softness and gentleness and harmony
Where every spirit can dance completely free
As things break our heart we open up more
Even if we come out bruised, broken and sore

Diamonds are made under extreme force
Go with your intuition then you will have no remorse
Your time comes closer as the intensity takes hold
It is up to you to choose your moment, strike out and be bold.

Dust yourself down

Weary and worn I drag my feet
Bitter and torn I face defeat
Downtrodden my heart is low
Lifeless and restless without my glow

You have lost your magic the suns in the shade
The burden is hard your resting place made
Unless you decide to quietly search in side
Those questions have answers they just choose to hide

Every moment you have a choice
Listen to the whisper of your internal voice
One of beauty and honor and authenticity
Wants you to dance without restriction and be completely free

Your body is tense your limits have been found
So tread carefully with love till you reach steady ground
The best sailors are made in the stormiest sea
Take control of your ship and sail harmoniously

And as the waves crash against you one by one
Your resilience grows your work is not yet done
So pick yourself off the floor and dust yourself down
You make the world smile at you so why do you frown?

Your inner glow

When your heart begins to weep,
Slowly and silently in your sleep.
Your mind has chosen to make it so,
Departing from your true nature, your inner glow.

At every crossroads we determine what's right
We can follow the ego and take on the fight.
Or we can harmoniously flow with the greater source
Give up the fight, have no remorse.

As a forest fire cleans out the old for the new,
It is only feeling your pain that will bring you closer to you.
So let the world break your heart,
Because it begins to open slowly so you can make your mark.

And when a seed is given room to see the sun,
A beautiful flower begins to emerge your journey has just begun.
And when you start to feel it's rays warning your soul,
You can not help but glide effortlessley to your beautiful goal.

what to say

I don't know what to say
Speachless and overflowing overwhelming emotions
Are taking my breath away
Paper to table and pen to hand
Transcribing this energy
Words attempt to understand
Love is endless infinite divine
Fear loosens it's cruel poisonous grip
Dying giving rebirth it's due time

"your greatest life has only just begun"

The journey can be long and the path extremely wide,
From the fears of the self one must never hide.
If they are brought outside into the cold light of day,
Those demons of doubt can never have their say.

So position them in line, standing straight, standing tall
And take them on one by one until the enemy begins to fall.
Patience, and time and clarity of force,
Ensures the soul will be elevated, you have no remorse.

Then reach deep inside and find that subtle voice,
That must be given it's freedom and it's choice.
Because only when we listen do we begin to learn,
Our outstanding talents, the passion that makes the fire burn.

So when the army of fears have been sent marching home,
The Angels of truth come visit you when you are alone,
And tap you gently on the shoulder one by one,
And whisper "your greatest life has only just begun"

When the tears start to burn

When you want it so much, but you know it's not right
When desire takes hold, but you have to stand and fight
When you love someone why do you have to let them go
Why does the world seem so unfair every time you say no

Because deep down inside there is a burning light
That stays flickering and strong deep into the night
The all knowing feeling of what to do
Never question or doubt it, just always stay true

Every time you succumb and accept second best
You compromise your soul, your body can't rest
So when the climb seems more than you can endure
Trust the challenge is worth it even though it may be sore

Your brightest day will follow your stormiest night
Your Hero,s welcome follows the bloodiest fight
And when you reach your summit just take a seat
And appreciate the strong warrior you have become in the face of defeat


Amidst the most painful moments
When the tears start to burn
Is a beautiful time
If we so choose to learn

Soldiers became Heros in the bloodiest war
Man becomes victorious
When he falls to the floor

Because what he does in that moment
Shows his real quality
Does he play victim or take ownership
So he can one day be free

The world is a shiny bright mirror
reflecting you perfectly
Just depends if it is a warrior or a prisoner you so choose to see

where I need to be

Aligned in force things flow so naturally,
moment by moment moving me where I need to be.

Like the river flowing so deep,
like a child resting so peacefully asleep.

The spirit soars into the sky

moving alongside the birds as they delightfully fly.

Purity and contentment a simple song,
after a whirlwind peace brings beauty all day long.

Am on route to see my highest
energy source I am humble and blessed.

you can find your space.

When the waves are crashing at your door
and you want to scream i cant take it no more.

Find your heart and your soul in the quiet in the dark,
there was peace before you can make your mark.

The forces of this earth are testing your bounds,
in the most difficult moment wisdom can be found.

Never let those energy vampires start sucking your soul,
taking you oceans away from your finest goal.

Precious gems are formed under extreme pressure
against the assumed thoughts of others one must never measure.

Listen to your internal compass your energy is low.
When your time is short, each moment should bring you back in flow.

So breathe in the mystery of this beautiful place.
your destiny is set in craziness you can find your space.

The sacred bell of my heart

Into the wishing well I fell deep into the sea.
Current of my search complete you are drenched in me.

Captain oh my captain
Tell me how you see.
Rocks from waves in the dark of night it's all a mystery.

North you send our flippered friends. South ships big or small.

West you undress the evening sky. East heard my soul's call.

Sounding sounding sounding
Tell me can you hear.
The sacred bell of my heart
ringing for you my dear!

Ding ding
Angels sing
Alelueya

Ding dong
Don't be long
A map I'm sending to ya.

Cross the river an row up stream till you see a light.

Cross the foot hills in the light of day an climb with all your might.

Once you rise above the clouds and see the angels dance.
Close your eyes and prepare yourself for an ocean of romance

keeping me on track.

Dragons blow Fire
Sharks predators of the Sea
Lions stalk this Earth
none of these scare me.

Spiders are creepy crawly
Vultures in circles fly
Crocodiles with sharp teeth
don’t scare though they may try.

Hurricanes and tornadoes
Chaotic as they are
like earthquake I feel them
yet like a shooting star.

I let go I surrender to all that seems to be real.
The masks the illusions projected on this life's reel.

I walk in courage cause I know you've got my back
I feel your rhythmic steps beside me keeping me on track.

If I fly up too high

If I fly up too high
Would you reach into the sky?
And lead me back to this earth or would you let me die?

Or would you let me reach heaven and wait till my next birth.
So we could play like children with frankincense and mirth.
We could hike the lands, deserts and mountain tops,

Sit together in stillness where all clouds would stop.

If you sank into the sea and did not know which way to go,
I would dive after you and together we would flow.

Upon the waves in moonlight till the sun rose in the morn.
We would reach the beach and swim feeling fresh and warm.

If I fly up too high hold my hand wave goodbye.
To all we've known and thought we know lifting beyond arrow and bow.
Through the cross under om ascending to our paradise home.

In you I fly so high there is no earth no sky only shades of blue.
Excuse me for being obvious but
I'm in love with you!

when you miss the goal.

As the tears trickle down and passion burns inside,
When faced with true wisdom and love one can never hide.
Everyone is sailing their ship in the beat possible way,
if the waves are rocky and you fall of course that's ok.

As the tension builds the intensity takes hold,
to turn the mirror on oneself is the only way to be bold.
In every moment we can create a heaven or a hell,
awareness is key passing emotions one can tell.

So picking yourself off the floor when the going gets tough,
to be ok with it all when you are overwhelmed with stuff.
When you have sampled exquisite moments and it's ripped away
and the moment is died he just steps away.

No explanation, no nothing it's supposed to be fine,
distance and compassion for self it takes time.
So coming back to the start and taking the first step again,
with the focus on value and love there will be more pain.

But what doesn't break our heart doesn't capture our soul,
the biggest lessons are learnt when you miss the goal.
When you are all used up and completely spent,
let yourself die once more in the arms of the heaven sent.
