Richard (Narad) Eggenberger Poems
A New Life Begin
I have lost my fascination with the stars.
They yield no light upon the taxing way
...
Soul in Transition
Riveted to the ticking of the clock
Relentless the attack of piercing pain,
...
Seasons of Love
It is the blossom time of love
Where mind a lagging runner falls
...
One Who Was All-Beautiful
One who was all-beautiful in life
Was no less so when death called out her name,
...
A Peace No Sorrow Can Deny
I sat beside her softly dying
In the bright and song-filled morn,
...
Beatitudes of Light
I saw beauty burning brightly in her eyes
Immaculate passion tinge her rose-like cheeks,
...
In Silence Deep Among the Flowers
Hydrangeas wilt beneath the blazing sun
Their drooping heads await the close of day,
...
In Thy Soul's Proximity
Soon the fairy buds of spring will break
And gaily will the scented blossoms dance
...
From Realms of God-Experience
How silently you died
And I, reciter of psalms, deprived
...
Nataraj
I looked into the young girl's eyes
And saw God stripped of His disguise,
...
Joy's Child
He comes as a wave cresting in delight,
His laughter like an infant God's at play
...
In the Truth My Freedom Find
Child with immemorial eyes
Who are the compass of my soul
...
Childhood Prayer
O teach me of birds, the brilliant arrows of flight,
For I would soar like them to greet the sun
...
Robed in Beauty
Though I have wept, held others as they wept
No sorrow can suppress the joy I feel
...
A Sonnet to Aaron on His Fifth Birthday
It seemed the sun in her ecstatic round
On this special twenty-first of May,
...
Sleep now my child and in thy mother's arms
Let the body from its labour rest,
Take flight O soul beyond the world of dreams
Where angels of diviner love possessed
...
Father and Friend
Father and friend as son I mourn you not.
Through all the tribulations of your days
...
Timeless is the Love That Through Us Flows
In your embrace eternal sorrow fled
Beneath the waves; revivifying peace
...
Richard (Narad) Eggenberger Biography
Richard Eggenberger (Narad) is a highly regarded poet and author of more than 50 volumes covering a wide range of subjects, horticulture, landscape design, tropical plant specialist, more than 16 books on poetry, spirituality and more. He was an opera singer in New York City, a tropical plant specialist and his Handbook on Plumeria Culture is a classic. He received his spiritual name, Narad, 'The Heavenly Singer' from the Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry, India. He writes, 'Even as a child around the age of two or three I was in love with the earth and recall the delight I felt when I touched her heart. Innocent and gleeful I inhaled the richness of the grass, the pure air and the sonorities of the singing brooks. One might ask how it is possible that a young child could remember such things but I would answer, 'Was this my first visit to earth? ' I have presentiments of births in ages past and lives in foreign lands no less real than today in India and the United States'. Narad now lives in Auroville, India and is building the Gardens of the Matrimandir around that great structure where it is possible to find one's soul.)
The Best Poem Of Richard (Narad) Eggenberger
A New Life Begin
A New Life Begin
I have lost my fascination with the stars.
They yield no light upon the taxing way
And what romance is left within the moon
When trampled by man's heavy feet of clay?
But breaks another wild and sun-touched morn
With sparkling dew and creatures winged and free
And with the veils of all illusions torn
I am filled with hope and newfound energy.
The flowers in their wise simplicity
Follow their progenitor, the sun
And we who seek a greater wisdom's truth
Must find within our dwelling place, the One
We carry in ourselves, the fount of hope,
The light that burns so brilliantly within
Guiding us upon the rocky slope
To find our truth and a new life begin.

Richard (Narad) Eggenberger Quotes
I will never judge another person until I can see their soul And when I see their soul there will be no need to judge.
Faith is but the hidden knowledge of the soul.
