Rebirth if any

Rebirth if any

I will not enter into the worldly life

If I remain as poor as I am now and here

I must not see my wife and children pale

For want of consumer goods

Unless God provides us with the tinsels

that are the fashion of the time

Iwill not opt for worldly life if I am born again

Oh I want tinsels and not gold

I will exchange gold for tinsels

The Kids Of The World Assemble...

the kids of the world assemble..!

&

the kids of the world assemble

at the edge of the seas,

hilarious in endless thrills

that sands and surf feed them with-

the seas reciprocate in more equal measure

to the charming calls and invite

of this innocent worriless world-

Love ever, Hate never

The first quality of a devotees form
Is Advesta Sarvabhutanam
According to Bhagwad Gita's saying-
It is -One who hates no being.

The Gita asks you to give up selfishness
As it comes in the way of oneness
It wants us to let go of expectations
And not make demands and impose restrictions.

We have devotion to the Lord—people profess
But conflict-ridden relationships, they seem to possess
Purely professing Love to God—is little devotion
But the ability to love all—is the kind equation.

Two Things

Two things that come and go—
Happiness and Sadness

Two things that will never leave us—
Fame and Stigma

Two things that will not come back—
Prestige and Life

Two things that come on their own—
Youth and Age

Two things that follow us—
Virtue and Sin

Two things that cannot be contained—
Grief and Desire

Two things that cannot be avoided—
Hunger and Thirst

Your Company

The iron in the flush burning fire,
A gleam and glow does acquire;
Fully transforms and is afire,
Losing its dense solid attire.

If you ‘re caught in the nasty mire,
Of the low and mean whom none can admire;
In life, to step higher you cannot desire,
And to ascend to lofty echelons you can't aspire.

Let us ever be in the company of gentle nobility,
Who will haul us with them to high dignity;
Raising us to tall standards of versatility,
And to higher echelons of respectability.

Beauty

There is a beauty born from the calyx of ugliness

Whose eyes are cauldrons of deceit

Whose apparels liken the messiah of democracy

Whose nose has some affinity with the nose of Einstein

The beauty born can be espied in the wars for democracy

and in the war for development

and in the pall of pollution

The Earth will find its beauty at its height

when man will abandon this earth forever

for lizards and snakes and llamas to live evermore in peace

I sat like a mountain

Yesternight I sat like a mountain

wrapped in a blanket of darkness

The eye couldnot see anything

The ear could hear the sound of silence

And my head seemed to be drugged

deeply plunged in some sensation

undisturbed by the world of getting and spending

I felt a sense of totality where there were no words

When i awoke from the reverie

I learnt that I am a living entity

That Gentle Touch..o My Love!

O MY LOVE!

don't you know how long

i yearn for your soft touch-

that gentle touch of your fingers

upon my closed eyelids?

if only could you realize its power

to melt my miseries and grief,

caressing me into the skies

of serenity and rippleless rest!

your touch is the first song

Creation Has Taught Me A Lesson

creation taught me a lesson.

&

nature photography has taught me a philosophy

of mountainous proportions in a language of silence-

if you deeply desire to merge into nature's grandeur

you must reduce yourself to a dot and featureless even,

and the glory and the inaccessible peace would be yours-

Somewhere In Some Desolate Corner..

somewhere in some desolate corner
crouching on the shores of mind
someone may await daily my poems
with an undying passion
and as a curing touch on wearied heart -
for that one i write in endless streams
whose name, sex, face and voice,
nothing i am aware of-
may be a thousand years hence-
to that expectant one i dedicate my poem-
my heart would throb with that soul
my vibrations would merge in perfect harmony
winging past gladly the sweat of centuries.
