Nell Haque

Are you the one
who all those bells is ringing
who fills my eyes
my head, my heart,
with honey
and at each dawn
awakens me
in the sweetness
of heavenly madness

A child girl
A clear mirror
wondering eyes
born yesterday
Will be a woman
a wife a friend

What will you make
out of her
Will she be a portrait?

Someone you hate?
will she be an enemy?
will she be a mate?

Interrogated
Sex estimated
wife
kneaded into dough
amassed

Stimulated
Intimidated
made into bread
measured and weighed
Roasted and baked
unheard
Wombman.

The land was dancing
the noon’s sun played its bugle
Happy the moments hid
behind the hours
as we stayed
for a while
togethering.

I was the mouth
you were the syllable
you were the itch
I was the scratch

Afternoon’s shadows
stilled the dancing joy
and the seconds
heavy chilled
lifeless
the gathering

Firm in the path
The little joy
lightens the way
as goes along

Pouring twinkles
in each heart
love on their faces
makes smiles laugh.

Swiftly the winter days
Rinse their glum

At the harbor
Spring will soon be here
In bloom

Drunk in love
With loving
Stringing metaphors
Staggering
I am

Silvery water
Turns into mirror
Shining holds the image
Of the sky

Anticipating sweetness
I see the seagulls
Twirling and dancing Above

The lone boat glides
With the lone rower
Across the silky waters
Good bye…

Nobody had entered
In his hidden might
They called him a pauper, a tramp
He wiped away tears
From the wrinkled faces
Of women and men
He loved evenly
Everyone

From moment to moment
Intently changing
The wrong into right
He was of no account!
Nobody

The Grail, The Cup
The Sapient, Excelsior
The Christ

When your drop of love
falls in my body
of reverberant waters
you will feel as I feel
that you are the sea

From your essence
from your heart’s core
in a place deep within
will spring forth your love

Palpitating your flesh
sweet will run
through your chest
the honey of a bliss

The essence of your passion
ascending to your eyes
you’ll pray of joy with tears
on my altar of love

I am the one who draws
from you the Shadows
and speaks to you in silence
the one who gives you breath
the one who breaks the hours
to create timelessness

You are the dewdrop
that got lost in the night
I am the one who waits
playing at the sea shores
waiting for your return

But someday
you’ll return to my shore
I will hold you to me
and an ocean of love
in my arms we will be

When your drop of love
Falls in my body
of reverberant waters
you will be what I am:
The sea, the sea, the sea

We know there is a point
where nothing ever was
everything is always is…
We meet in the now becoming
never arriving between
we know we’ll never get there
getting there always is.

It is love almost unbearable
that dissolves time into being
it is now every where
because everywhere is
Soon all else will disappear

When I feel isness to be
your burning look stands
soon all else will disappear.

When I look around transfixed
with Him, I feel everybody
with Him, I am everything
touching the hem of His garment
stringing moment to moment
we make the present to be.

My chest is hurting
because your love
my heart is learning
to be a cup
because within,
my body knows
love makes us one
alone, alone
the earth around
green of fresh clover
encircles me
loving sweet rings
spin me softly

I gave no credence
that we might be
integral parts of
one sole Being
I gave no credence
that power-love can turn
a stone into a heart
to allow a glance
to all the marvels
of what we are
by only opening
simply the heart
your regal beauty
ray of white light
one heart we share
there is not you
there is not I
together one
unending love

One heart we share
that makes us, one
swiftly the heart
Opens and closes
Over and over
