The Artist & The Art

I’m here to appreciate the artist & the art
To honour the talent & to honour the spark
The joy, the pain & those precious wisdom drops
The words, the voice, the choice, the colours & other forms
The expressions, the imagery, the music & the dance
A blessing to connect with the beings in the skyline path

I’m here to share my poetry I chisel & carve
Experience, realization or just a simple thought
The deep ocean & the wildfire in the chambers of my eyes
The unknown, the known, the light & the dark
The memories, the moments, the wounds & the scars
Poem is me, I’ll express it till the day I’m gone

Living one moment, even or evenly odd
The graphical representation of my BMS chart
Body, Mind & Soul balance subpar or at par
Algorithm that I follow with the senses so raw
All good rhythm if we listen mindfully from the heart
Wishes & love from me to you all ✨❤️💫

Formless Trees

I’m gliding high with colourful birds on either side
Freestyling on the fly with my broadened wing size
Airing natural rhymes in an infinitely open sky
Holding ball of fire with calmness in my fluid eyes
Beaming rays of light through the shiny translucent blinds

Bleeding diamonds once felt like the breaking point
Shockwave was running into me when I was paralyzed
Countless spots in my shell suffocated me numerous times
Realized one day that steep falls were designed to slowly rise
I’m able to see that patterns & forms aren’t the real I

The gorgeous beauty of the moon in the magical night
Walking on partly visible path in the now is pure enlightenment
The spiritual energy is creating the magnetic ocean tides
Unknown depths I’m reaching when I tune in to inner shine
The new sides I’m sensing when I keep redying to be alive

Transforming cutthroat screams to the meaningful voice
Sanding inner wall that was clayed with layered noise
Dissolving deeper scars with the mindful sacred silence
Blowing on greyish site to ignite sparks of life
Manifesting formless trees on the naked & barren soil

Lightning Rhymes Review by Pragalbha Doshi

I’m humbled, deeply touched & honoured by sharing this amazing, beautiful & heartfelt review with you, of Lightning Rhymes by Pragalbha Doshi, of Infinite Living of my debut book – Lightning Rhymes…I’m filled with the feeling of WOW…what a way Pragalbha has written this review…a profound gift to me…my gratitude to you, Pragalbha ✨🙏✨

A screenshot of the review
Here’s the full review:

“Navin Manik’s poetry and poetic prose give us glimpses of the kind afforded only to the one who is touched to the core of their soul and then allowed to return to surface. I am overwhelmed with appreciation for how present his words are to the moment-to-moment flow of life from inside out, through, and through.

Lightening Rhymes is a treasure to hold in my hand, as I read page after page. This is the poetry of the kind that comes unannounced and breaks one open, one by one, or perhaps seals one back, one by one, depends how we look at it. I recognize all those themes and spaces from where, as if a triumphant mourning happens through poetry as each one trickles out of our being – Navin does all of it absolutely exquisitely. His poems are an experience of a Fullness of Nothingness that moves within into a stillness – very impactful in written and spoken form. They are brilliant expressions of the stark experiences of our inner world.

It feels a great contentment for the gift of Navin’s poetry, with such unique rhythm and incredible beauty, to be out in the world.”

I’m grateful to each & every one of you…for your wonderful support…for your unconditional love towards my poetry…I can’t describe the feelings when I see & read that my book is bought, read & then reviewed…I would only humbly ask you to buy my book if you connect with my rhymes…Lightning Rhymes…It is available in both paperback & eBook editions.

Lightning Rhymes Review by Jeff Flesch

A few days back I received a mail from this wonderful being…an amazing poet, that goes by the name – Jeff Flesch |@fleschj…Jeff had tried to submit this review of my poetry book – Lightning Rhymes on Amazon several times…but due to some kind of glitch/issue, it never showed up…so Jeff decided to email me this heart touching review, which I’m sharing with you all…My gratitude to you, dearest Jeff…I’m simply delighted & honoured 🙏✨❤️💫

Review of Lightning Rhymes by Jeff Flesch:

“Lightning Rhymes, by Navin Manik, is a tour de force of poems that enter into the reader’s heart, blossoming like wildflowers stretching towards the sun of spiritual transcendence. Navin’s poetry is raw and powerful, connecting spiritual experiences to nature in a way that leaves the reader breathless, and in want of more. The feelings Navin evokes throughout the book are stunningly descriptive and can resonate with any human being on this planet, for we’ve all been to places Navin describes. Deep pain, trauma, heartache, anxiety, depression, etc., are woven into the language inside of these beautiful poems with an expert hand. Likewise, Navin expresses deep love, hope, and the beauty of human connection throughout his verse. I highly recommend Lightning Rhymes, it is a book that will resonate in your heart and mind.”

You must know that I’m grateful to each & every one of you…for your love & amazing support…it truly means a lot to me…please keep supporting me & my poetry 🙏✨💟💫
