Give Peace
Each person in this world
Has special qualities of gold.
Real concern for all is the need
Let us try to emulate and them heed.
May all haunting troubles come to a halt
May all bickering and disputes from us part.
We shall do our best and together live
And shall peace to all persons give.

Wisdom
Inside a room of darkness
enters a vile robber.
Inside a room of brightness
he doesn't penetrate.
In your mind have discernment
and hold the light of sagacity.
You'll then be in enlightenment
and with Goddess Athena.
Evil thoughts therein will ne'er exist
In luminosity wisdom in you will persist.

The Bee
THE BEE
The busy bee
From tree to tree
Makes us see
That a body wee
Has also tremendous energy.
From the tree top
And from crop to crop
The bee does hop
The honey to prop
Drop by drop.
Like the bee to feel
With enormous zeal
And buzz with even keel
And to meticulously deal
Dear God, before thee, I kneel.

Kasthuri!
Where have gone?

Seems an age
When I can't
Be beside you

With you

To KASTHURI
POEM-6
Oh! Mighty, Almighty!
How grateful were we to Thy ways!
When the two of us
Thou impinged by Thy Grace!
Oh! Mighty, Almighty!
How best did Thee we praise!
When the two of us
Together did Ye raise!
Oh! Mighty, Almighty!
My eyes are swimming in brine!
For the two of us
Thou hast parted, for me to pine!

Be The Flower
The lovely flower
in bloom
Reminds one
not of its doom
the day after
when comes the end
of its life's chapter!
Very happily
is the babe born
Though it is to be torn
one day or the other
From this world
of it's father and mother!
Then, why O man
should ye dote
on your life's span?
Do thy duty
as radiates gaiety

Abolish Ego
There's no man in this world
Who without any trouble is mould.
For one reason or the other
You are in trouble sooner or later.
The main reason for your fall
Into the sea of troubles—all
Is because of your inflated ego-
If totally abolished—this ego
You will be made free from all troubles, you see
And would in happiness for ever be.

The Whole
The waves are ne'er discordant
with the mighty ocean.
Even a small wave sent
is a part of the ocean
and when a giant wave looms large
even then ‘tis a part of the ocean.
Through our lives misgivings barge
into the affairs of mundane tension.
But even as the waves roll
when the final bells toll
our exiguous life's soul
mingles with the whole!

Radiating Happiness
Lovely flowers gaily bloom,
To dispel gloom
And loom
Happiness.
Beautiful birds joyously swing,
And sweetly sing,
To ring
Happiness.
The silver moon slowly peeps
Over the ocean deeps,
And seeps
Happiness.
The cool flowing water-fall,
From the mountain tall
Does install
Happiness.

Write I Must
To write I am forced,
By an angel, sweet;
My blood fast coursed,
To give a treat.
To my dismay,
I found nought to write;
My mind in disarray,
Is drab downright.
But write, write I must,
For my daughter darling;
Let her savour the crust,
Lest she go starving.
I know her appetite,
This poesy would whet;
So a little bite,
Would not make her fret.
