Give God the First Place…
Place God before all things in life;
Love God because He loves you more;
Ask God and walk on Heaven’s road;
Please God by keeping His commands.
Pray God to show the way on earth;
Plead God to be your guiding Light;
Prove God your love is from your heart;
Tell God to keep your soul sin-free!

Unfairness
This world is grossly unfair;
The heart of man is unfair too;
All opportunities are unfair;
There are not many things fair, one can do.
But there’s just one most fair One who is God-
With love unfathomable and just a rod;
Yet, man unfairly blames the one God!
Does not man’s unfairness look rather odd?

A Christmas Prayer
Born in winter’s chillness;
In a far off manger;
O Sweet baby Jesus,
I adore you.
Born to be crucified,
And die for all our sins;
Redeemer of mankind;
I surrender my heart.
Lying on a bed of hay;
Bringing joy on Christmas day;
Giving peace to world- all say;
The truth, the light and way!
Forgive my sins, O Lord.

A Song in Melancholy
I have no soul to share my joys and woe;
I have no one to tell my grief, sorrow;
I ask myself, “Have I asked things far more? ”
But this is how my life will have to go!
I have no one to share my ken and so,
I have to talk to myself or forgo;
What can I do if opens not new door?
I have to put my ambitions in store!

Christmas is Nigh?
I’ve heard of Santa,
But does he come
On reindeer sleighs
On snow-clad roads?
I’ve heard of Christmas,
When born was Christ,
To give joy, peace
To men on earth!
I’ve heard of Jesus,
The Son of God,
Who died on cross
For mankind’s sins!
But do we know
What Christmas means?
We must share our love
With all around.

God, Give Me Back My…
God,
Give me back my joy;
Give me back my good friends;
Give me back my good old days,
When I was just a boy!
God,
Give me back my peace;
Give me back my will-pow’r;
Give me back my piety,
When I had no disease!
God,
Give me back my heart;
Give me back my faith / hope;
Give me back my love of Thee,
Which I had from the start!

Happy Pongal,2012 (in poem)
May harvest crops of rice and sugar-cane,
Raised up by human toil and sun and rain,
In cooking-pot well blend with milk, honey,
To boil over bringing joy, health, money!
May Pongal kolams show this in great hue;
May clothes anew and festivities too;
May Maker bless humanity full view;
May Pongal show our faith in God that’s due!

I Think, ...
I think, I think some things bit uniquely;
I think, I ink some things bit differently;
I think, I link things bit mysteriously;
I think, I wink and blink like most others!
I think, God wants me to think differently;
I think, God wants me to ink uniquely;
I think, God makes me sink my grievances;
I think, God bestows on me nuances!
