Keshav Kumar Phokeerdass Poems

in a life of darkness
in a heart of loneliness
man always search for compassion
and acknowledgment for being alive
...

I am here now...
At the porch of a cliff dominating the sea...
Above me, lies a heaven still dormant....
The soft whisper of the leaving night still fills the air...
...

Man, born from the five elements...
Made to love in the image of the almighty...
Graced with perfection of all beings...
Be it with intellect, strength and emotions...
...

The first bump makes one feels uneasy...
Thoughtful of why, when and how...
Suddenly, an unknown being becomes unique...
One tries in vain to figure out the unusual change...
...

Tonight is a special one
One full of mysteries
One full of secrets
Secrets still well concealed
...

I always thought I'll be alone
Left to this world to lead a lonely life
Then came you
Someone to count on
...

And god said:
'If angel has a place to live other than the heaven, it wld be in the heart of man'
As only man has power to cry feel the most humane emotion during despair
And in moments of hopelessness
...

Wrath is only sign of a burning soul
A mind fighting to seek peace
Disturbed by a continuous war consciousness
between instinct and logic
...
