An end to hostility
Hostility can never cease or end
If peace initiatives are not taken or feelers sent
It may go on worsening the situation
It may have distrust consequences if allowed long duration
Who has benefited from long hostile atmosphere?
Have they been able to create permanent sphere?
Has it paid any dividend for the times to come?
Only hatred, misery, pain and sufferings to welcome
It has helped only war mongers
We have struggled and remained as strangers
They have proved good businessman and managers
It has brought havoc, destruction and produced ravagers
They have vested interest to see that nations are reeling under poverty
They must remain under their subjugation and never emerge as mighty
It doesn’t augur well with their national interest and hence inflame the passion
Unrest, bankruptcy and misfortune force them to go in for submission

A belief not common
What is common in us? This question baffled me most
This had destabilizing effect and was proving fatal at tremendous cost
How was I going to settle it to lead simple and straight life?
It had sharp edge and was tearing me apart as if operated by knife
Why we had different pattern of life and almost lived poles apart
Why did we perform and prayed from different angle and still remained part?
The religion was different still prayed almighty with same zeal and looked apparent
It had same basis, spirit, contents and flow of thought with same current
Mind was occupied with single aim that is to say to attain the salvation
Nothing was different and it remained same for all to live with the situation
Everybody wanted to lead the peaceful life though the approach differed
Human race was to survive still as the inherent mechanism suffered
If God had wanted the same treatment for all, he could have given one color
Why all flowers were created different with almost fascinating fragrance and odor Customs too differ to please the God but aim one to seek blessings
it is still awesome to feel different and cause so much stressing
Race, color, skin may differ but there ma y remain pure soul

An unwanted call
People remember at eleventh hour and make a call
They don’t bother about time and ring a bell
It is their way of dealing the matter
At the end we are only looser
We may loose our peace of mind
Their lame excuses may not look so kind
It may be so much important in their opinion
It may be enough tow rack the bonded union
Why it crates flutter in mind when there is knocking?
Why do we regret at not locking?
We don’t blame anybody but argue
Think of many things which are not due
What does mid night knock really mean?
Does that mean sign of victory and simple win?
It creates panic with the fear that it may bad news
Why to loose sweet night by listening to the views?

An obsession
I have so many things in my possession
diamond, gold silver has not created any obsession
The wealth is multiplied without any efforts
the laden ships are still landing at ports
Everything is taking place at very ease
but it does not give me joy or please
People address me as wealthy man and tease
I am eager to use it for noble cause and release
What makes man to enjoy the moment?
the beautiful happenings around or hectic movements?
the worldly affairs or natural climate
which of the things stay near possibly to state
The noise atmosphere and wordy duals appeal no one
it has never found favor with poor, rich or any one
I had everything in my possession
still i prefer to stay away with clear obsession

Child abuse
Why should they not be publicly hand cuffed and paraded?
Why should they not be exposed and their tales narrated?
Is it not the shame that they lose their sense and molest the child?
Why our civil society and judiciary show some leniency and go mild?
I have high regards for the aged people and pay the respect
They should search the souls and immediately need to introspect
Why it is that flower which should see light of the day is simply crushed?
Why it is that they are subjected to humiliation throughout life and pushed?
May be we suffer from sick mind and do not care for its readdress
It is expected they act in exemplary good manner and earn respect in plain dress
They have their own role to play as senior most citizen and guardian
They are the one who can legitimately claim as true custodian
We come across cases where some of the female children are abused
I do believe in sanctity of position but such things can be refused
It is product of sick mind that tries to surface and comes to fore
Such ghastly acts put us to shame and are never witnessed before

Final adieu, Jackson
Final adieu Jackson
Our heart felt so much sadness to offer you colorful wreath,
We were all soaked with tears on your death,
Heart beats witnessed rise and fall and stopped to breathe
Millions cried all over but there was nobody to soothe,
Oh, legandry figure and king of pope
We had high regard and high hope,
You had excellence and found arts to rope,
Sadness, happiness and misery were ready to cope,
You crated music which was eternal in essence
Sentiments ran high and you lived with elegance
Music, concerts and program made you always tense,
Your message of Life couldn’t be delivered in any sentence,
World really faced from music starvation and alienation,
Music was dying out and there was no more innovation,
You came on earth to offer new creations,

Spare me
No, she is unwanted and not welcome
Do away with her so she doesn't come,
Worries may be more if she takes birth in home
Better terminate the pregnancy and have the chance for free roam
This is the situation that prevails at the time of baby child's birth
She is unwanted in family as awaits no love and warmth
We discriminate between new born and have narrow views
Do the parents really need some education and reviews?
Was I not borne out of love and affection?
Were they not eagerly awaiting and had so many expectations?
I was luckiest child t be borne come out
I heard the conversation in womb and talk about
I used to hear bird's beautiful song,
When we used to go for walk along,
All lovely talks while watching beautiful pair
I was breathing in place which was not supposed to be wrong

Everything is fair
Everything is fair in love and war,
Prove your intelligence and excellence at par,
Even if no means to ride in car,
Entertain friends in shopping and visits to bar,
Boy may think it is simple game too lure a girl,
Great adventure as if to lay hands on pearl,
Attempt in orthodox way to impress upon,
No success in sight but still carries on,
Not to be too harsh on them for such move,
Persuasion with little care and fears to remove,
Little failure may prove them lame duck,
Nothing may succeed like successful work,
It is adventurous age that needs ample time,
Priorities are different and goal not prime,
Nowhere to go or nothing in sight but still big target,
Not always ready or in position to forgive and forget,

Traitors of today
Traitors of today occupy imminent position
Well orchestrated songs in praise for composition
Establishment of personal rule over millions of people
Can not look forward for anything good and are unable
What have they to do for their own country?
Rob, steal, cut backs and commission in form of money?
Add vows to already worsened poverty?
Can any one tell us when this will end misery?
I have all praise and kudos for their divine talent
We have tears in eyes but nothing more to lament
What else do they deserve to invite us for comment?
We prefer to be mere spectator and be silent
In ancient time people were hanged to death
For crimes, murders and ill gotten wealth
Today it is considered as an adorable art
Academicians, politicians present themselves as smart

A good return
What poor get in return for their poverty?
Sweet words, insult hatred or pity?
Do they deserve all sorts of humility from their own brethren?
Is it not betrayal of trust to God or matter of great concern?
Rich may get what ever they want in return of money
Poor may always remain helpless and lonely
There will not be any body to speak him with love
Still many are there for them ready to serve
“I live in the hearts of poor in disguised manner”
You may not know it at all but will come to know sooner
It is their blessings that may help you to ward off the difficulties
It is better to obey His wordings and work for all niceties
If you are gifted with talent, intelligence and wealth
You may always be concerned with beauty and health
You may not go near to patient or leper for service
Sometimes you may fail to attend event such as demise
