Waves of grace, winds of Naam (Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai)

Waves of grace, winds of Naam (Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai)

On the auspicious occasion of Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Gurpurab, this poem emerges as a humble reflection on the timeless wisdom imparted by the first Guru of the Sikhs. Inspired by the profound verse "Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai," which likens the Divine Name to a steadfast ship guiding the soul across the stormy seas of life, this dodoistu adaptation seeks to capture the essence of that divine voyage.

In Guru Nanak's vision, the Name of God is not just a mantra—it is a lifeline, a vessel of grace that carries us through the turbulence of our worldly struggles. The poem follows this theme, celebrating the soul’s journey from uncertainty to enlightenment, reminding us that, despite the trials of life, the Guru's teachings offer unwavering refuge and guidance.

This poem seeks to honor the simplicity and power of Nanak's message: to live a life of humility, devotion, and unity, and to always hold fast to the Name, which serves as the ultimate protector on our spiritual journey.

As we remember Guru Nanak on this sacred day, may His light continue to shine in our hearts and guide us toward the eternal truth.

Showstopper's Yesterday

The 12 inch heel, the confident gait, The measured steps, the sudden halt, The blush on cheeks, the smoldering eyes, The hands on hips, head held high, The silken gown, barely there, A tilt of neck, balanced well, The sultry glance, timed right, Perfect half twirl, played twice, With a graceful swirl, she turns back. The world looks on with stolen breath, Oohs, aahs, applauds, encores. The showstopper’s yesterday, Now hangs in a gallery, Fading parchment, guarded unnecessarily. No shadows of glamour come a-chasing, For vacant eyes and sagging skin, For shattering illusions, hanging questions, Am I never going back?

Faint glimmer in heart

Ripe autumn air’s come to bless. Showering sweet November caress. We could be holding hands and walking, Silent but still talking. Faint glimmer in heart. White winters, no flowers in sight. Frosty December moonless night. And here I am hoping for your arm, To keep me safe, to keep me warm. Faint glimmer in heart. The year twenty twelve is leap they say. Oh! I can hope some more, there’s one more day. Hope for smiling summers with you, Hope for blessings to rain through. Faint glimmer in heart. Dying, not yet vanished, There’s a faint glimmer in this heart. Linking with Trifecta : Week Fifty Linking with Velvet Verbosity : 100 Words

The pain is all gone

It wasn't the first time. And it would not be the last. She could not stand them suffering like that. She asked for his consent. He expressed his willingness in whimpering sounds. And the pain was gone – forever. Linking up with Trifecta : Trifextra - Week Nineteen
