The Many Arrows that miss the Mark ~ New Poem by Nachi

Posted on May 24th, 2008 by Nachi : Poet at Heart Nachi



there are many moments and days in life..

when one feels..like to be an empty bowl.

a bowl that carries no meaning, no purpose

except for the time when its filled with something.

like the time when one writes a poem..

it feels to have come full attaining some meaning, role to fulfill..

it could be vanity still..or vain hope...

to give as much significance to self..and whats brewed in ones heart..

*

how many arrows of a bower can miss the mark??

one awaits its turn to come to any such meaning, purpose in life

to feel having fulfilled a sense of becoming and being...

to land every arrow in ones bow to the perfect sweet spot...


one sees the magnificence and grace in the world.

the many creations that are created in true love...

and one asks...when is it going to be me?

when is it going to be  time to be eloquent, graceful and spirited soul...

when will such time come, when the incoherent words,

and silence in in ones heart will turn into poems...

poems that would stand in resonance and light,

as a testimony of the light and grace inside this heart...

its too painful to have loved and yet have not known the language to love..

to have cared..and yet not be in reckoning for ones heart...

to have loved in vain...

its as if there are other relevant things in life

of the many myriad faces of life..

which is the one that meant for this heart..

let this face be known to me...let it be filled with hope,

laughter, heart and a drop of divine element in it..

is all this heart can hope for..and wait for it to  be revealed

**

The many arrows that miss the mark... is a honest reflection of a life ravaged by abuse, shame, mental disorders..the many unplugged holes in a life.


I dont know if the poem is any good..but the title is so beautiful and apt..just perfect to illustrate the frustration, the element of errors, mistakes, more errors, and mistakes..that take place in any such life that has more stumbling blocks than grace and faith and love...placed by the divine or the choices of a soul beforehand...


it is very annoying to see everyone hitting a mark and just being so utterly wasteful to reach anywhere near the mark...


it is so damning to be unmindful, unconscious, unprepared, unloved, surrounded  and disempowered by the unknown..


one can only hope..with sadness in ones eyes..that somehow there will be a time when the arrows will hit the mark...when meaning will unfold..wholesome will gather around...when one can really feel ones self and be proud in joy..


not coming here for pity party...wouldnt make any tall claims of owning up the heart or being the only one to walk through darkness...


just honest reflection, sharing to make...

Nature calling to Man ~ Poem By Nachi

Posted on May 15th, 2008 by Nachi : Poet at Heart Nachi
Endangered_4725d9ea55d80



where will man's greed will take him
will he leave any shore untouched by his greed?
now all the earth is all ventured by him..
will he aim for the moon?

how much long can the nature wait,
for man's heart to come to sense
before its too late..
to return back to the world,
that she handed to him to care..

is there any place in this world,
where nature is allowed to be living peacefully,
where man exists

the trees cant fight back..
the mountains cant hide..
and the animals can only be a mute spectators
to the callous indifference of man
who thinks he is superior in light to all

who'd tell him..that a blade of grass
matters as much as him..in this world..
every animal that's slaughtered,
every tree that's butchered,
leaves an empty space
that can never be filled..
not by numbers anyways..
the day man will lose compassion in his heart
for all the animals, and the plants..
will be the beginning of his end..
for only as long as there is any such thing as love in his heart
shall there be a world for all to live..

Tears ~ Poem By Nachi

Posted on Mar 20th, 2008 by Nachi : Poet at Heart Nachi

tears





The world seems so much bigger place than what it is
for it holds so much pain inside it..
tears of past, present and future times..

generations upon generations..
leaving behind the waves of tears shed & unshed
lasting through the tough walls of time..

Tears of different times infused to be
as sea runing through the earth..

It does not matter whose loss it is
and for what the heart cries
the sweeping sea...takes everyone in its stride

some sooner than the others
some wait for a while..

knowingly or unknowingly
we all come to be with this sea
one by one..


leaving traces of footprints
on the sand of time.


***********
I saw a movie once..as a child..about the life of Native Americans /Red Indians..and how they lived in their times.. The movie depicted their life..so beautifully..showing their stuggle, the bond of love, relationship between them..that people from todays world can only imagine about.. their pains..that seemed so real..relevant, resonating with our life as in today..

Times may have changed..earth might have spinned million more times since back then..and how deeply connected, rooted we are..to this earth..related to our forefathers, and generations to come..in the same bond..



It was all so strange..to connect to their bonding..to know it was, is lasting..and to know of their pain..of sometimes world comes to a big bang..to crash into crumbs..destroying life..to give away to new life..

 Sometimes I feel that maybe the Pain, tears felt, shed by generations of past, present and future..comes to be the sea..of salt water..maybe it lives through time..and rains on our life..and we take it on..from there..to live it as our pain..our tears..our loss..and the nature reinvents itself..renews itself this way..How mysterious, strange, yet somehow logical to heart it feels to be connected to the pains, tears, loss of a wo/man thousand years before us..and thousand year ahead of us..and of all those who live with us..presuming a destiny of their own..how inseparable we all are..and yet how it is that we do not even know, think, feel it is to be so..

An Excerpt From Dances With Dragons ~ Anitra Freeman

Posted on Mar 17th, 2008 by Nachi : Poet at Heart Nachi
dervish dancing






To love truly is not to love others more,
or to love yourself more,
or even to love God more,
but to love Life more ~ to love the life of the heart,
more than the life of the shell.

The greatest act of love is to do what you dare not do,
to say what you dare not say,
to think what you dare not think,
to feel what you dare not feel.

The greatest act of wisdom is to live without easy answers,
or even without answers at all,
in order to live with more heart."


Anitra L. Freeman - Dances With Dragons

I Am ~ A Poem by Nachi

Posted on Mar 17th, 2008 by Nachi : Poet at Heart Nachi



meditationhandspainting



I am not the picture on my passport..
I am not the marks on my marksheet or
extra comments in my Certificates..

I am not the stories that people spread about me..
I am not in judgments of pointed fingers or facts of any kind
I cant be put into numbers, labels, or types and orders.

I am not in knowing and cant be known by knowledge of mind..
To experience and meet me as and who I am..

know me through the knowledge of your heart..
which asks for no knowledge to love someone of its kind..

I am an experience, a wave, a choice that of a tear or a smile..
I am a flower, tree, or butterfly..I am the sea and the open sky..
or the wind that caresess your hair..

I am that what I love and what I am afarid of...
I am Me..anything and anyone what I want to be..

Don't tell me who I am..my limits, my scale, my size or who I can be..
Love me as an experience, give me the freedom and the space to be me.

If You must know me..Give me a Hug and a Smile..and share a caring word to let me lead you to a place, an experience called as "me"
