Artists Beware!
Beware of artists:
for they know the
difference
between
creator
and
creation.

Reaching Out
One complimenting the other,
the The Unlettered Bard wittily sums up what Reaching Out elaborates…
plus
some
Drop by
the food is
good
😉
I don’t write blog posts. I write choreographed presentations.
I want you to
feel
not
think.
Spend time.
Let the music take you there and read my (voice over) narratives.
I guess I’m writing short stories without realizing it!
Wow!
Why am I always the last to find out?
It’s an audio/video production
naturally
For quickies – The Unlettered Bard
Quips in rhyme
in time
wise cracks at self
in line…
Sometimes doodles rhyme
Reaching Out in mime…
Maha Sona trumpets like a herd of ten elephants

Maha Sona
in case you wondered
why
These weblogs are naught but the ground I walk and stand on to address the world:
sky
high
Only in spirit
shall we rise
that
high
My Shahadah
Declaration
Bearing witness:
screaming the truth
through
loss
or
gain…
Small things go a long way from up high
Trembling
stumbling
laughing
crying
never faltering:
always
thankful
glee
…
my
high.
Fulfilment
of
duty:
The elephant
must then
lie down and
die
…
without
sigh.

Say
hi.

Lifting Veils of Ignorance

My Money Tree (Rondeau)
Hard currency
My money tree is made of gold
And always has the funds to hold
The dreams I have to make them true
With just one swipe, well maybe two,
And fits into a wallet fold.
When I was young and first enrolled,
The rush was strong but well controlled.
I always fed it well when due,
My money tree.
But somehow I became too bold,
Nice things on sale were often sold.
A deal, I thought, but deals accrue,
And so they did and made me blue,
And now I’m left to shake and scold
My money tree.
State of The Union
Love it 😀
It is a state of mind
And a state of heart
It is the state of the union
That is state of the art
“All great and …
True… 🙂
Know Thyself
Superb!
Right For Me
Love the way he puts it… 🙂
Your laughter changed my posture
It changed the way I walked
It affected how I saw things
And the things about which I talked
Your smile opened up my heart
It breathed new life into my lungs
It puckered up my lips
And twisted up my tongue
Your giggle changed my direction
It spun me into a tizzy
It sent my emotions soaring
And kept my feelings busy
You grin opened up my eyes
It gave them a sight to see
It showed them who, and where
And what was right for me
Misreading the Qur’an
Trained psychologist, experienced Middle East reporter and Accidental Theologist, agnostic Jewess, Lesley Hazelton, steps up to the crease to set the record straight with an excellent delivery on how to read the Qur’an…
A definite ‘MUST WATCH’ for both Muslims and non-Muslims alike!
🙂
Lesley Hazleton: A ‘tourist’ reads the Koran
So, who was this man, who was inspired to recite the glorious Qur’an 1,400 years ago and become the centre of controversy dictating, as it were, today’s world events from beyond the grave?

The Accidental Theologist rises to the occasion once again with another MUST:
Read The First Muslim By Lesley Hazelton.

I Will Pull You To The Surface
God speaks to us through many ways… sometimes, it’s a poem written by a complete stranger, who becomes nearer to you in that moment than those closest to you…
When you are losing power
I will give of my strength
When you try, but come up short
I shall grant you the length
When you struggle to find direction
I will instil perfect purpose
When you are drowning in denial
I will pull you to the surface
When your intentions collide
I will separate light from night
When your sensibilities blind
I will lead you from wrong to right
When your possibilities dry up
I will drench you with new vision
When your dreams do not pan out
I will bring them to fruition
New Colours
Marlon speaks to me… what a blessed poet! 🙂
When agony rings the bell
And apathy closes the door
I will open empathy’s window
And polish fulfillment’s floor
When sorrow takes the wheel
And punishment pumps the brakes
I will put you on a flight
Over anguish and mistakes
When loneliness rains down
And desolate clouds cover
I will fill you with a rainbow
Of new colours to discover
Purify My Love
Just my thoughts!
Marlon couldn’t have said it better…
Love his stuff
Purify my love
Strengthen my will
Deepen my commitment
Make my mind still
Sharpen my logic
Round out my heart
Shave off my excess
Give me new start
Flatten my fears
Dispatch my defence
Lift up my life
Make it make sense
