Chapter XI — The Bhagavad-Gita
Chapter XI takes readers into one of the most visually striking and emotionally transformative moments in the Bhagavad-Gita. After receiving deep philosophical instruction, Arjuna expresses a longing to see Krishna’s divine essence with his own eyes. He seeks more than words—he desires direct perception of the universal force behind all existence. At the beginning of this sacred vision, Krishna responds not with abstract reasoning, but with an act of divine generosity. He bestows upon Arjuna a…-

Curly Locks
Curly Locks opens with a gentle gaze upon a child, so young and untouched by the world, nestled in the safety of early innocence. The poem reflects on what, if anything, such a child could understand of pain, hope, or the quiet ache of growing older. There is no worry on that face—no trace of the burdens that life eventually brings. Instead, the child’s smile suggests a soul still basking in a simpler truth, one not yet colored by regret or complexity. The speaker wonders if this child, so full of…-

Ballad: The Troubadour
The Troubadour begins with a solitary musician standing before the towering walls of a castle, his melody reaching beyond the stone to a heart hidden deep inside. Within the grim confines of the dungeon, a young maiden, stripped of liberty but not of hope, clings to the distant sound of his song. Though unknown to one another, a bond is forged through sorrow and harmony—one grieving, the other driven by compassion. The troubadour, with no title or authority, makes a solemn promise not to rest until she…-

The Pleiades
The Pleiades appear early in the night sky, clustered like small glowing eyes that peer gently through the darkness. There is a quiet intimacy in the way they emerge—not as distant, unreachable stars, but as close companions of the imagination. To a child lying awake, the stars become a playground of myths and dreams, delicate enough to be mistaken for toys left behind by angels or drifting sparks from some forgotten celestial forge. Their faint light doesn't blind but comforts, as if reminding us that…-

Ballad: The Reverend Simon Magus
The Reverend Simon Magus explores the curious case of a clergyman interested in purchasing a lucrative religious post, all under the guise of humility and virtue.

The agent describes it as a rare gem—comfortable, peaceful, and highly profitable, with the current holder approaching the end of his long life. The entire transaction is framed with an…-

VERSE: Discouraged
Discouraged begins with a gentle discovery—a tiny stream barely visible beneath layers of moss, its quiet murmur inviting curiosity. The speaker follows it with innocent wonder, seeing in its path a reflection of hope and quiet promise. There’s companionship in the stream’s rhythm, and an unspoken agreement forms: the journey toward the sea will be shared. As the stream dances past heather and tumbles through hills, joy blooms from the unplanned exploration. It’s a journey both outward and inward,…-

Vacation Time
Vacation Time stirs a vivid image of long-awaited freedom, especially seen through a child’s eyes. It begins with a boy trapped in the closing weeks of school, where every clock tick feels exaggerated. His mind, already playing in open fields or beside gentle streams, barely stays in the classroom. He pictures sunshine, the thrill of being outdoors, and the end of pencils and recitations. When the teacher’s voice breaks the daydream, it feels like being pulled from a place far more alive. Each school…-

Chapter
VERSE: GOD’S GIFTS
God's Gifts opens with a quiet, solemn truth. When a soul is entrusted to the world—pure, delicate, and unknown—its future is shaped less by fate and more by how it is received. The poem explores this delicate dance between divine intention and human response. In the first tale, a child is brought into the world, faultless and new, yet burdened immediately by society’s neglect. No kindness is offered. Instead, judgment, poverty, and shame shape his earliest days. His growth is surrounded not by…-

Ballad: The Reverend Micah Sowls
The Reverend Micah Sowls begins his story as a thunderous voice from the pulpit, railing against the theatre with a fire that nearly scorches the air. His condemnation is not just moral, but theatrical in itself, delivered with such dramatic flair that even the most indifferent listener might mistake it for divine revelation. Behind this righteous fury, however, lies a quieter ambition—Sowls speaks not only to warn souls, but to impress a bishop seated among his parishioners. His sermon, borrowed from a…-
