Random Encounters
Random encounters…
Chance meetings
Life changers
Unexpected greetings
Interrupters of life
Uncaring guests
Random encounters
At their very best
Devices of change
Creators of strife
Random encounters are…
The spice of life

Draanen
She wants to know more about this boy,
He wants to know more about this girl,
And like what is seen around us in the name of modern society!
But i am Draanen in the land of joy.
A random love,
A random poem,
A random story,
A random muse,
And like the joy of your heart!
But falling in love is part of us on this earth.

Happy Encounters
Love songs of earth
And fields made
Flowers of new morning birth
Sky tinctures that never fade
A heart of a beating secret
Full of love to you
Nothing in its ways to regret
From inside colors true
Love songs coming by
Every dream of oceans wide
The azures space and sky
In cloudlets drifting and glide
Every thought that comes to be
From hope we know
The world of songs playfully
Like dawn of dewdrops glow
Love songs in each new go
That gives life a new meaning
Every day's ordinary show
From roads of its enduring greening
Spinning slowly on and on
With flowers on the sideways
Past dreams that never are done
In their many shading's lays
Happy encounters
In every step and way
Happy encounters
In gladness you give away
Moments to remember always
Happy encounters
To share and to take
Happy encounters
To enjoy and to awake
With gladness for every day
Moments to remember always
*(Poem to my song, Happy Encounters)

You Could Meet Somebody
(chorus)
You could meet somebody, you never know
From brief encounters habits grow
Into giant oaks that hide the sun
Life in the shadows ain't no fun
It's easy getting up there
Never think of coming down
Not hard to say 'i want you'
When you're floating on a cloud
But you know that lonely feeling
When nothing's going right
'cause it's only the beginning
Of a cold and sleepless night
(chorus)
You could meet somebody, you never know
From brief encounters habits grow
Into giant oaks that hide the sun
Your only chance is to turn and run
It's harder getting up there
And it's painful coming down
And now you can't see clearly
Beneath the thunder cloud
And the loneliness gets longer
When nothing's going right
And things ain't getting any better
With another sleepless night
(chorus)
You could meet somebody, you never know
From brief encounters habits grow
Into giant oaks that hide the sun
Your only chance is to turn and run

O! many a shaft, at random sent, Finds mark the archer little meant! And many a word, at random spoken, May soothe or wound a heart that's broken!

Great Mind
Is it feasible
When I babble
That I fanned fair
Alphabets at random in the air
And they came to caper
And settled on paper
In the form of the Muse—
A poem to use?
When even for this work of a dot
There exists a mind of sort
Is it tangible
To say ‘tis a gamble
That the stars in ether
At a random chance did appear
The Universe, Galaxies and Cosmos
All formed on their own from a mass?
Can I thus pronounce
And the Great Mind denounce?

Even scientific knowledge, if there is anything to it, is not a random observation of random objects; for the critical objectivity of significant knowledge is attained as a practice only philosophically in inner action.

Random Time
I have been searching my eyes for half a day
this is a lonely place
The sounds dont break in the box
The're just sourrounding your voice,
Trascending random-time.
Yeah
People are driving to Solomon's Thief hole
from here they seem to have the same ambitions.
What do we have to do
to break the master plan?
Why do we ever have to cry alone
when thats not what I thought of life in heaven,
Oh well break the master plan,
Yes trascending random time
I have been searching my eyes for half a day
This is a lonely place
The sounds dont break in the box
The're just sourrounding your voice,
Trascending random-time.
Yeah....
Why do we ever have to cry alone
When thats not what I thought of life in heaven,
Oh well break the master plan,
Yeah trascending random time.

Period Doubling Route to Chaos
It starts somewhere at x and moves to y,
Zigzagging like a random, fleeting z,
While in my heart it seems to multiply
And run away toward infinity.
It starts like some equation in a dream
That sums up all the things I feel in me-
This sky, this night, this moon-all somehow seem
To resonate in perfect symmetry.
This nightclub, where I come to spend my time
And contemplate the female form disrobed
Before the cheering throng of horny guys,
Where I still find a certain glimpse of hope-
A random spark that fuels my fantasy...
And when it's over, all the drunks return
To their dull and unfulfilling lives,
Yet in my mind and heart it twists and turns-
That random switch that's keeping me alive.

Just A Random Poem
These words have no meaning to it
Yet we're typing it anyways
It's not about love, happiness, or sorrow
Yet it's about all those things
Love is not a game, but people still play
Happiness is all we want, but only few of us have it
Sorrow is in all of our hearts, but there is always someone out there to help us out
Like life these words have no meaning to it, yet it still does
Everyone is random in there own way, but thats okay
We see other peoples randomness, but we fail to see ours
But like everything, these words have no meaning,
Because this is Just A Random Poem

Mother of Civilization
Her voice calm like a
Meditation of life's many troubled
All day's in demonstration unharm
Mother of civilization saying "people from
All races, religions walks of life in
It's strife "It was as the, she was looking
Though spiritual eye's of the present
Long ago "I know why a someone, out of
Every fun, would damage such pretty
Flowers, but in this world, there's lots of
People suffering because they don't understand
Life's process of maturing prior to their
Circumstances mentally, spiritually
Physically, due to modalities, of prayers
Is a power, that comes to all humans invisible
From the highest tower "it's frank, precisely
No bland" mother of civilization.
This isn't the house, Jack built this is my
House it was built, by God. "Many people
Are still grappling with old issues of evil
Random chance, illegal drugs where
Pestilence poverty is rampant. "Ghetto's
To educate young children for part of their
Lifetime their income including "Artificial
Intelligence evil remain with eternal
Question of faith, from a life of poverty
Crime, evil sin at random too unformed
Illiterate minds
In my home, I'm queen, my husband is king and our
Children is gift's from God said Mother of
Civilization ending her conversation.

A Variation on a Triolet
And an acrostic
Rumanian Thoughts
Out of such encounters bounds felicitous infinity:
Neat breasts, nice smile, piled dark hair, spirit, blithe and lithe agility-
Kindness of souls in the rise and fall of skin’s familiarity-
O sly the wit engend’ring such illicit ripe infinity,
Hot close-fit rhythms, glitt’ring liquid-eyed amiability.
An intricate virginity? - femininity! Virility!
O Joys, soothed sighs, sweet fountains, softly grinding blest agility
High into such encounters thrusts an intimate infinity.

Random
it was pure random
when i married
you, i thought it
was not true
it was like i was
sleeping and then
i woke up and there
i found myself beside
you and the cameras
clicked and then
we were proclaimed
as married by the
clapping of their
hands and the
clinking of their
wine glasses
pure random
i thought it was
wrong

Signs for Change
Subtly surfing through the whole
Inside, unseen, our chrysalid
Grows to maturity. Though hid,
Now metamorphosis its role
Shall wor[l]ds connect as inner soul
Finds wings to fly without the grid
Of Time's restrictions, nought forbid
Remains to suffocate, control.
Change is not just a casserole
Heated by chance encounters mid
A soup confused, un[l]inked, unbid.
New Year [b]rings changes as Life's goal
Gleams clear, though distant, signals sends
Errors corrects, and bridges mends.

You Love Me Crazy
I found out something the other day,
I understand now, whats going on.
Your willing to figure out
Just what I am about.
My crazy antics, my random acts.
My solom vow, my dear, its that I'm crazy.
You love me crazy,
Just a little off the top,
Just a little bit
Of alot of random.
Nothing short of crazy,
Insane, like a phsyco.
Miricales happen,
And I'm just fine.
You love me like crazy, a little insane.
I figure your gonna find your courage somewhere.
Your finally gonna pick my up.
Take me out on a date, go to the movies,
Or a walk in the park or on a beach.
You love me crazy,
Just a little off the top,
Just a little bit
Of alot of random.
Nothing short of crazy,
Insane, like a phsyco.
Miricales happen,
And I'm just fine.
You better watch out,
I'll make you dance in the rain.
I like doing cartwheels
In the middle of a storm.
Swimming with the rolling thunder.
You love me crazy,
Just a little off the top,
Just a little bit
Of alot of random.
Nothing short of crazy,
Insane, like a phsyco.
Miricales happen,
And I'm just fine.
I like to sing in the shower,
Dance like a gypse in the middle of nowhere.
Spin on the green grass.
I talk to imaginary friends when I'm alone.
I have my own other realm,
I have many spirit family members,
And I love them all.
You love me crazy,
Just a little off the top,
Just a little bit
Of alot of random.
Nothing short of crazy,
Insane, like a phsyco.
Miricales happen,
And I'm just fine.
