 A LOOK AT LIFE-87 BY-Smruti Ranjan Mohanty              HE No one was with me No one is with me No one will be with me Except Him at whose lotus feet  I have surrendered my life. Karmic debts and deposits  Sorrow, happiness and anguish  Over the years  My love and tears Longing and relationship  Had been but marriages of conveniences  Permutations and combination for a better deal No one was bad, no one was good No one my friend, no one my enemy  Nothing but my priorities Defined me and my relationships My relationship was as transitory  As my passion and  infatuation  Only for a period of time  Wilted like night jasmine  Love, romance, relationship  Everything has  changed Everyone faded Including me But not He who is beyond time He has been there since the day I am  His love and concern has never changed My relationship with Him  is as fresh  As it was long bac...

 SOMETHING I LOOK AT-28 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANY I feel guilty when i do not listen to conscience and act as per whims i feel guilty when something wrong happens for which the reason is me I feel guilty when  i avoid duty deliberately and remain engrossed in my life and its beauty i feel guilty when i lavishly spend while my immediate neighbour is in dire need of it I feel guilty when i put a mask make thousands of compromises die and reincarnate time and again  to live life the most ignoble way I feel guilty when i am not true to myself see and tolerate injustice keep mum and enjoy the comforts of life as i wish I see innocence suffers justice denied i feel guilty when i behave as if i know  anything and find excuses for my dignified silence Sunsets and shines life goes on but i carry the burden of guilt all along being too sober and gentle i expect others  to raise their voice and bring that better tomorrow which is none of my concern copyright@smruti ranjan 23...

 A LOOK AT LIFE-84 BY -SMRUTI RANJAN MOHAMTY   THE HEART THAT BEATS Do you have a heart That beats the same way as mine? Do you have the eyes That only see me The way my eyes see you? Do you have a mind  That never roams  Hangs on to the object of love That is me? Do you love me the same way  As I love you? Does your love for me Is for yourself  For mutual reciprocation Or for the object of love That is me? Is your love at a physical level With the mind steering you Your emotions and passions  Or beyond it At a level, you yet to know? Have you gone beyond you And completely lost in me To explore me, fathom my love for you Or still in the grip of passion and infatuation? Does your love make you complete  Or hinders your journey Towards me, love and eternity  How can you enter into the kingdom of love Unless you go beyond yourself  Body and mind To completely identify with me The object of your love?

 A LOOK AT LIFE-83 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY       TILL THE HEART BEATS Till the heart beats Air comes in and goes out Blood flows In the veins and arteries  My Lord! Let my mind and will, Intellect and reasoning, Feelings, emotions, and possessions  Which are all yours Be at your lotus feet. Until my memory betrays me  My reasoning leaves me Till I forget  You are my father I am your child Let this body and mind Be at your feet  My father! If my love and longing for you  Is true and genuine  Never let time  Dispossess me of my only possession  You and your love Snatch away the smile on my lips Snatch my memory and reasoning  Compel me to forget you To grope in unlimited darkness  And leave this world  When you are not in view  Take me in your lap When I am fully conscious  Looking at you Listening to your voice Talking to you the way I have been talking to you Over the years Smruti Ranjan Mohanty© ...

 A LOOK AT LIFE-81 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY        A JOURNEY INSIDE For a few Life is not a race Not running in a haste For an image  Life is a journey  Sitting with an erect spine Closing  ears and eyes Organs of senses Calming the body, mind  One moves along the spine Raising his  consciousness  From mundane to the sacred  From poison to the elixir  Feeling the subtle vibrations  Deep inside For a few Life is listening to the beats Emanating from the heart  Feeling the rush of blood in the arteries and veins  Sensing  Prana Vayu  in cells and membranes  Listening to the music of life The divine OM coming out Rhyming with the vibrations inside  For a few Life is listening to the breath The air coming in and going out Watching the process as an outsider Without being involved. For a few Life is meditating on the Chakras In the spine to unlock the lock  between the brows  On the ...

 A LOOK AT LIFE-77 BY-SMRUTI RANJN MY MOHANTY        MY WORLD Do I have anything Except for your love? Do I need to have anything Anyone else When you are with me Bathing my body and mind In the perennial stream of love? What if If they do not love me? Do I need anyone's concern? With all your affection surrounding me I feel as if I am the king of my destiny  The monarch of what I see When you are around  I have the whole world Joy and ecstasy revolving around me  I feel intoxicated  With the  wine of your love No desire to come out of the spell  To face reality before I say my final goodbye. It is your smile That gets me going  It is your presence  That is so soothing  You stand majestically  In between heaven and hell Life and death For me nothing matters You are the means and end The path and destination When you are near There is no death Even the shadow of death is far away Only love and life all the way. My...

 A LOOK AT LIFE-76 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY      ECSTACY UNDEFINED  When you touch me It is spring in all its colours When you touch my heart I hear the symphony of love The primordial sound  The divine Onkar  When you touch my mind It becomes a garden of love When you touch my soul It is joy infinite  When you touch the whole of me It is a rare romance  Ecstasy undefined  I forget me and the world around All negativity disappears  Disappear ego, hatred and jealousy  Disappear mine and thine Pair of opposites Time and space The whole  universe melts I lose myself in the cosmic dance  What remains is you and your love  Ocean of your love drowns me And I become You, the timeless You The ocean of infinite love and bliss  Smruti Ranjan Mohanty© Picture-google

 A LOOK AT LIFE-75 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY Is it wise risking life for nothing? Is your life completely yours,  Or others have a stake? Have you ever thought  What you mean to your parents, To your wife and kids? What will happen to them If you leave them in the midway? Are you so selfish and arrogant  You are not at all concerned about those  Who love  and live for you Is risking life for the sake of risk  Worth taking? Is surrendering to tobacco, alcohol  And drugs add to your life Or take the juice out of it? Is using a cell phone while riding Helps you better manage time  Or takes you to a dead-end  Is life for momentary pleasure Or something else? Is life so meaningless To be wasted on nothing  Think about it! Before your idiocy costs you dearly  Before you land your family In a pool of sorrow  And snatch away their smiles Leaving them living dead to Live the rest of their lives.
