sookdeo manansingh manansingh Poems

My dream is like a journey
to the moon
where i can enjoy the timelessness
of my being
...

I am delighted to sit amongst students who practice art
each with a unique piece well -crafted and so smart

some on a canvas blending colors of paint
...

Freedom atlas!
their voices have been heard
o the chains from their feet removed
they no longer will answer to the whip
...

Deep within the silence of my soul is a light
that accompany me through the darkness bright

like a flame balancing in the shadow of time
...

Poetry has flowed in my veins since writing in school
and I wanted to share my love like a bath in the pool

I would pen on paper to express the love from my heart
...

I am overjoyed
I am overfilled
my cup runneth over
...

I am a sage living with humility and truth on earth
I have a vision to accomplish my purpose of birth

the castle I build will house the treasure of my dream
...

Let truth and non-violence be the watchwords of the day
my word is the breath of life and this is how to pray

let my voice be heard in heaven as I spoke to the Queen
...

Father to son (Sestina)
I want you to become a sage
to spread the message of light
this is what I dream
...

Hidden in the closet of this garment is the light of my soul
with the power to unfold the mystery invisible to the world
I am a child of intelligence to recognise the divine spark
even to see what a bird whisper and when a dog bark
...
