ECSTASY

ECSTASY

We were restrained by the demands of sanity,

Otherwise we would had a gala time in a state of frenzy.

Far from being a novice, I am master of poetry,

I suspect my critics couldn't my merit see.

It is the sea of happiness, so carefully tread,

It is not a walk through the market, or common street.

When tide of happiness rises, what Dialogue can one has with heart?

In that state, take this precious pearl as good as lost.

A simple discipline becomes a deep art if practiced often,

All actions become habits some day,

Everything ripens and blossoms.

Ecstasy coursing through my heart,

The angels sing beautiful song.

When lies ecstasy hidden in human heart, nobody has seen;

Who knows what and when that emerges behind the screen?

In a state of ecstasy he has fallen for a fairy,

Many had gone mad really!

In this world, love has become a fiction.

There's no cure for this addiction.

Except for faithfulness, Beauty has everything else.

HOPE

HOPE 

Of courtesy, mercy, kindness, consistency-- hope knows nothing. 

Too well she knows satire and slant, sarcasm and fling. 

I am human because hopes are my being's essential part. 

Our hope is a veil between us and realization, 

But for this, there would be illumination. 

Who can feel the plight of the boat wrecked sore, 

Whose only hope is that some planck floats along and reaches the shore. 

They hope and do what they wish to be done, 

The handsome people listen to none.

I hope to fulfill all my desires but I know nothing. 

And it took me a long age to know this simple thing. 

I found my cherished hopes but on the way, 

What things were lost to me I can't say. 

One day, life will be honoured by mankind, 

This one hope I nurture in my mind. 

Forget the hardships of the day, focus on your blessings. 

What is done can't be undone, 

But you can take the lessons.

Be hopeful be hopeful my dear.

LIFE IS MAGICAL

Life is magic with miraculous birth,   All the living things that inhibit this earth.

Each day is a new horizon, full of taste and colors, that life brings with it.

Let life be the way it is and let yourself be the way to you.

Breath into life and let life breathe you.

Life can be a simple affair, do not complicate it with needless bother and useless care.

I know how joy of my heart flies, without  some reason nobody cries.

Change your thinking to charge your life,  as your thoughts control your life.

To brighten your life,  you must widen your heart.

Wherever you go, carry your  happy heart..

Count up the joys and not pains,  think not of losses, but of gains.

Keep the clouds back,  gaze at the sun.

Thus life will smoothly with you run.

The world is light,  you float on a breeze,

As if the world moves on the rhythm of your feet.

Yes LIFE is MAGICAL.

THE PANDEMIC - 

Pandemic is like a messenger of death which is killing silently but severely,

We have no time to stand and stare helplessly.

You are not the cause of any mischief,

It is because of this pandemic that the town is filled with grief.

The pandemic is so severe, such a scourge,

That it took people away in their sleep.

You have once in a lifetime opportunity to stay at home,

To watch your children closely and lovingly.

Stay strong, spiritually, mentally, emotionally,

Slow down, introspect, organize your priorities.

Discover your values, limit your desires,

Spend time with aging parents, watch life closely.

Many fell breathless last night & some died.

Look at the people, praying with tearful eyes

.

No one is responsible for any pandemic, its only our deeds,

We have disturbed the environment for our greed.

Thousands lives have gone and many are suffering with deadly pandemic,

OH GOD! accept our sincere prayers, take away the pandemic.
