Connections just happen (poem)

Moments of connection happen,
they can't be planned or wished.

Then, why am I wasting energy
in chasing  dream interactions?

Why fear? (poem)

I stepped out for a walk on rainy day, when it was not.
Soon, it started drizzling and I turned back to return.

The dhani-dhani drops touching face, made me smile.
When I started rushing, they directed me to slow.

I looked up to the sky, and felt the falling droplets.
Then, I feared leather slipper & hair, getting bad.

But, when I saw the snail, birds 'n' plants "cool".
I crossed my home and continued to walk.

Yeh jo mind hai na..., wishes and plans a lot (poem)

When my husband hugs our son before leaving,
my mind is thinking, he is coming over to me next,
but he steps down, saying he may be returning early,
I am sitting in my chair, planning hugging when he comes.

Yeh jo mind hai na..., bus compliments hi dhondhta rehta hai(poem)

When I am dancing to my favorite folk music,
I think about a childhood friend, I danced with,
Then I see us dancing again at some local festival,
And being complimented for the performance by all.

The healing power of "Kiss" (poem)

My 10 year old son showed me his hurting nail,
which was hit by a ball thrown towards him at school.

When I touched his finger, he "oouched" out loud in pain,
I immediately kissed his finger, he retrieved it as if shocked.

I explained, "love heals like magic", which his big mind denied,
but after an hour he came downstairs to tell me, it no longer hurts.

I looked at him with questioning eyes, "Now you agree, kiss worked?"
He said, "well, it could be....", but to me it was proven, pretty loud and clear.

An act of honor, erases a feeling of dishonor (poem)

My 15 year old daughter, shared her "good news" of the day,

that she was chosen as a sophomore of the month out of 500.

My heart opened and I honored her with a pat on back and hi-5,

In my next meditation, my buried feeling of dishonor got cleansed.
