Rainy Day – haiku

Rainy day. It’s dark

Outside, so damn cold of breeze.

I need a lantern.

Kutabur Debu Cahaya

Kutabur debu cahaya
Bersama salam dan langkahku
Demi jejak kemanusiaan
Bagi seluruh isi alam.
Berurai air-mata….

Sungai-sungai sebagai urat-urat darah
Yang mulai tersumbat,
Menyempit,
Buntu…. Samudera pun kehilangan tuah dan birunya.
Tersedak Ibu Gaia terbatuk-batuk, bersedih melihat anak-anaknya tiada berhati.

Duh Gusti,
Ampunilah aku
Yang tak mampu membantu titik-titik mungil bercahaya terkungkung rantai dan kerangkeng.
Letih dan terluka
Batin dan badannya.

Duh Gusti,
Merdekakan kami.
Aku dan titik-titik mungil bercahaya itu.
Merdekakan inti hidup kami.
Sehingga bahagia walau kami dihela hingga pertolonganMu tiba.
Sehingga ikhlash walau kami dipaksa hingga kehendakMu tiba.

Wahai, titik-titik mungil bercahaya….
Kuseru doa dan belai mesra.
Salamku salam ruhani yang akan membungkusmu dengan kekebalan
Dari segala derita.
Kuatkan. Murnikan. Tataplah langit seperti kutatap ia.

Kudekap Ibu Gaia,
Kuhembuskan debu cahaya
Dan titik-titik cahaya itu berpendar, melebar dan merayakan kebahagiaan.
Salamku salam ruhani
Wahai titik-titik mungil dalam dekapan.

Puisi ini kupersembahkan bagi para satwa yang didera kekejaman atas nama kesejahteraan manusia. Terkirim bagimu kekuatan dan kemuliaan selamanya. Sayangku….

Ibu Gaia, teriring doa untukmu jua….

Salaamun qaulammirrabbirrahiem….

I Travel To Live – tanka

Learning, love, Poetic

I travel to live
To revive the life and place
With my soul greeting.
Roots, trunks, leaves, flowers tell me:
“Your footsteps leave light and scent”.

Under umbrella,
Running am I to a shade
Sheltered protection.

Metal in colors – haiku

Learning, life, Poetic

Adorning body:
They see a witch in pink and
Metals in colors.

Suddenly I see a witch with so many jewelries in her body, colorful metals of many kinds and types: not sure if they are gold or silver or copper or others. What I see is a beautiful witch with beautiful and colorful metals.

Oh I can see many gemstones, too….

Learning, life, Poetic

Are tearing silence. Green worms
wriggle then fall down.

Symbol – haiku

That’s so called symbol?

Diving – haiku

Bob, Learning, love, Poetic

In a rough dark sea
She is diving all alone.
Tridacnas await.

There She Is – haiku

Bob, Learning, love, Poetic

There she is. Crouching
Behind a log. She’s waiting
For fresh flesh dinner.

Are we a tiger crouching? Or a deer grazing in the greenery…. Or both but with love?

Flying – haiku

Learning, Poetic

Sky is the limit.
Bird is soaring, zooming down.
To watch his strong branch.

Sometimes the journey is to nowehere but to go back home.

Important? – haiku

Bob, Learning, Poetic

Thinking of a thing
Only one sole thing. A waste —
Of time or important?

It’s when I’m healed

Learning, love, Poetic

Hugs of letting go —
Said “let’s go to each vector.”
It’s time when she’s healed.

Circle – haiku

Moving a circle,
Connecting two dots: She is

Purified Soul – haiku

Learning, love, Poetic

Flesh, blood won’t ascend.
Your sacred, good breath and deed
Are reaching Heaven.

May you be good beings with good Karma.
Atma namaste….

Rike to the Earth & sacrificed Beings.

Laa ilaaha illallaaahu Allaahu Akbar….
Allahu Akbar wa lillaahil Hamd.

I live – free verse

Bob, Learning, love, Map It!, Poetic, This Person, Those People

I live forever,
When it I who lives forever.
But I might only live for 70 years,
When it is I who lives for 70 years.

I decide to live forever,
I who is riding planes – many different planes
Travelling through time and space.
Give me life
One at a time.
Then live forever I do.

But this plane will not make me forever for you.
This plane decays by time – this time.
This plane deteriorates by weather – this space.
I won’t live forever in this plane.
Then yes I won’t live forever.

Thanks for being with me when I’m in this plane.
And see you again with me on another space and time because we live forever.
Just know me then you know when we meet again.

I’m happy forever in joy.

Fish – haiku ended with a free verse

Learning, love, Poetic

Fish in frozen pond
It is swimming to the sun.
Hopes for hotter air —

Fish, water and sun —
Forming a natural cycle —
Win life together.

Fish, can you feel me
Stir the water to get you
Out of frozen pond.

Fish stare at my eyes.
They beg me to stop and go,
To find other funs.

Fish….
Me….
Life….
Like
Fish….
Water….
Sun….
Can I play with this life the I want?
I know I can.
But like a fish that can’t live in frozen pond – waiting for
The sun to melt it down.

I am a fish in a life full of water under the sun.

A word – haiku

Learning, love, Poetic

Pronouncing good word,
Parrot is nodding its head.
When word is just word.

What does a word mean when it is uttered by a bird, it only repeating what it has heard from environment without knowing what it means. It means…. Meaning is not everything but it is more essential than just the pronounced lining letters.

Life, teach me about what essential when I pronounce a good word as I am not a parrot or any other copiers.
