Echo
of Joy
- by ilaxi sudhir patel
Why linger, why turn back, why shrink, my heart?
When life is color and warmth and light,
While I, my thoughts to thee impart,
My soul's pleasure, your eloquent voice delight.
It sure must be, heaven on earth,
When soft sky smiles, low wind whisper near,
Where angels tread, when your voice vibrates,
Sweet echo of joy, Let not heart break.
Words are images of joy refined,
they spill emotion, care and love divine,
Thy soft note is only joy to me,
You're stranger yet so close a feel.
I'll gladly trace some scenes with you,
When bleak storm resist rove,
Strip the spirits bare that wane,
Bury the days I abhor.
Magical scents to a wondering memory bring
dreams of wonder world,
The tones of love our joy enhance,
Let no mysteries unfurl.
I'll leave to depart the world some day,
'Holy' they call my name,
May heavens bring joy, your life to bloom,
Your love will reach you to fame.
Singing
in Minor
by ilaxi sudhir patel
(Appeared in The Asian Age)
I can sing a little minor,Timid as a bird
Why am I living in hex? Even though the Angels allure
In Heaven they call my name,
'Holy', she reaches to fame.
Just, once more, Just see I troubled them,
But they don't shut the door
It's people on Earth who keep playing the games!
Playing games in major, # notes scaling higher,
Blaring loud, aloft, full of appalling pitch,
Tunes of rocking liars,See how they cheat.
'Holy' content aloof, singing low tunes of galore,
Angels tread near, petals scatter on the floor
Wider doors open up, new horizons to scale,
It's friends so dear, who makes you reach to Fame.
Oh,I am a Queen,In a gentle white gown,
Living grand in a crowded town,
A Prince charming comes with a grace,
kisses my tears, slowly takes his pace
I'd sing in major, sharp notes of joy,
This is a limit of my dream,The focus of my prayer,
A perfect, paralyzing bliss,Yet Contend as despair!
BLISS
(Appeared in The Asian Age)
In
all my wanderings, round this world of care,
In all my griefs, god has given me my share;
my vexations past, I still have hopes to case
Wear a crown, jewels dazzle to last.
Imagination
fondly stoops to trace,
The parlour splendors of that festive place,
My journey alone, swift winged arrows of light,
Tempest pause behind, Speedy is the flight.
Let
the rich deride, proud disdain,
A blissful soul, simple blessings attain
To me more dear, congenial to my heart,
Memories cherish, friends to part.
That
light whose smiles kindle the Universe,
Darkness crumble away, leave behind the curse,
Condemned to hope's delusive mine
Obedient passions, will resign,
Alas! Goodness, Gracious, my Heart Opine!
Stranger in Disguise

(Appeared in Print Page, P.Age,
The Asian Age
(15th August 2004)
He'd drink by himself
And raise a weathered thumb,
Towards the high shelf,
Calling another rum.
Recollecting memories
Of colossal joys and pain
Pretty damsels and swaying hips
Living in a dreamy world with great spirits.
He's a pleasure delight
O'er charged with burthen of own love's might
More than that tongue that more hath more expressed,
O learn to read what silent love hath wrapped
Heavy eyelids to the weary night
Dost thou desires be broken
While shadows mock thy sight?
It is thy spirit that thou think so right
O no! Thy love, though none for me, is all oh so right!
A stranger in disguise, passes through the way
Painting my age with beauty of gone days
Methinks no face so gracious is as mine
Adieu, no haste, Memories are but delight!
Hold On There!
by ilaxi sudhir patel
Hold on, I'll be back someday,
someday my dear luv
Hold on, I'll see a smile on your face someday, someday my dear
luv!
I'll be there for you
Dont you ever let go,
I realise that you want me to stay,
So Hold on, Let me come back someday!
You fill my life with pleasures
Hold on, Let me come back someday
To flicker up fire
And fulfil those desires!
Hold on, I'll be back someday,
I'll be loving you still
You'll never know
Just how lonely I'll feel
Hold on, I got to go,
I just cant stay
Oh my luv, I'll back someday!
Hold on, never be alone,
Think of our dreams,
Wait for me till I come home
Hold on tight through the cold lonely night
Oh Boy, hold on, I'll come back home.
Hold on, we build a paradise, Wait for me...Hold on,
I'll be back someday
Maybe in some disguise!!!
Search Sublime
by ilaxi sudhir patel
(Appeared in The Asian Age, P.Age)
Love is in the mind, a search for
sublime,
Sunset and evening star, a clear call of time,
Ancient person, for whom I,
All the flattery young defy,
Long be it ere though grow old,
Lazy, shaky, crazy, cold
But still continue as thou art,
Ancient person of loving heart.
The search is endless, sins galore,
A flame to flicker, life no more
Go soul go, Upon an arrant transcendent
Fear not to touch the best;
The truth shall be thy warrant;
Thy lovers be lost, love shall not
Me thine friend, forever you can opine!
Life - Journey Untold
by ilaxi sudhir patel
(Nominated for Poetry Prize & Published in Voicesnet
Poetry Anthology Book(10) & Receives a 'Poet-Merit
Certificate') - Voicesnet
Like
a Poet Hidden, In the light of thought,
Coin, cash or gold, all monetary plot!
Souls cannot be bought, Life is ever so short!
The rays of the sun, flares so bold,
Moonlight so dim, oh so cold,
Luv is sublime, a journey untold,
Life's adventure, mysteries unfold!
Hell's the place, the heaven on earth
Life's disgrace, ever since birth,
For few this is true,
Nay! methinks, never so blue!
Morning rays, shining light,
All sweet, all time, music chimes
Shades of the past buried in grave,
A future so gold now awaits!
Lord is mercy, he thinks is right,
Ours is jes a Life, full of plights!
Stupid Love
by ilaxi sudhir patel
Thought a Stupid thing to say,
'I Love You' to someone, someday!
You peeped into my world,
Now I think its wise to say,
'I Love you' my sweetheart,
It makes me really feel gay!
Your caring, understanding,
accepting my odd ways,
Never thought I'd dream of you,
drifted in your cool gaze!
You stood there amidst the crowd
As I secretly smiled away,
I looked into your eyes,
I could feel your warm embrace
Wish you'd open your heart
And share your life with me,
Yep, you the one my Prince charming,
Oh I could feel so dazed!
Soul Mate
by ilaxi sudhir patel
Send me the Pillow that you dream on,
And I will dream on it too!
Send me the kisses across to me,
And I will kiss your forehead too!
Wish I could sit with you
And watch the setting sun too!
Wish we would keep on luving more n more
And liven up memories too!
If dreams had wings
I would fly to be with you,
Sit by the edge of lake at nite
And fill Life with pure delight too!
Although its a dream my darling,
you fill my world with smiles
Forever I'll dream
The dream we share all time!

| A
day I entered into a competition to Blog
a Novel in a month, I thought it easier but than, even after a
year, I still have to blog the Book on Romance! I think, it's lot
tougher to blog till one gets to dive deep into the subject. So
maybe, that's my drawback. A great fan of Darling & Romance
picture Books, I guess I could blog my way with Pic Tales...Isn't
this gonna be cool?
Well,
I came across this Blog
of Nikhil Parekh and this happens to be Blogging Poems. He's
an Inspiration and I am sure, all Kidsfreesouls readers will be
inspired by his hard work and dedication that scales him higher n
higher....God Bless him! Here's Poet

A Child Smiles
-
Nikhil Parekh
Only in a world of freedom,
Can a child unfold and bloom.
Only with the sun piercing right
through the dark hut,
Can a child see the wonderful sights of this world.
Only in an ocean of unprejudiced love,
Can a child speak to its heart's content.
Only through the eyes of soft empathy,
Can a child see its true reflection.
Only in surroundings of unadulterated society,
Can a child open its mind wholesomely and dream.
Only when applauded at its tiniest achievement,
Can a child come to know its hidden potential.
Only in lanes without propagation of caste,
Can a child recognize its own identity.
Only in the cradle of happiness
