Copycats.
Whether ideas, appearance or speech
mere book reading or art-stuff
By imitation, display their weakness to you
Secretly adore u, are epigone bluff
So dear Copy Cat!
You actually making me Glad,
Empower me, making me the ONE
Very few are the Acheytypes
Rest are brainless Apes, hun!
Your stimulated acts, are unsaid compliments
as 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery'
try something original, its good
or I assume u've Outsourced your Battery

A West Side Story!
Fears irrational, dwellers of mind
Timid & uncertain with horrors unknown
Doubts need time to scatter, dispel
And vagueness space, before it's gone.
Alien it was, found best resolve
Was empty-handed, now with fortune overload
There's a light after every dark spell
A beacon so clear, its glow foretold.
Insight's mine, awareness home
Wisdom's a flame, burns bright and high
An odyssey of life, with self discovery
It's prudence and truth, one can't deny.

A share of Success
Your dreams your wishes
On road, in their quest
When fell or lost
Neither were helped nor addressed
Struggles, your share of life
Battles and trials, your fate
As world only invests
In victors, winners and Greats
If in past were alone
Now in heaps of requests
Got any idea? Can you assess?
Everybody wants to share that success
Pay the world in same coin
or its your Karma to smile n suppress
Eye for an eye, is your right
Better to advance not regress.

Family Love!
While working round the clock,24/7
Had this special feeling, for some I'm the heaven
Children and husband slumbering, sound sleeping
Its weekend for ‘em, for me chores peeping
Providing their wants with fresh looks
I'm the Home ministry, a Manager, also a Cook
Was hasty once, got this tolerance unmatched
Love is a wonder ingredient, the extra feature attached
It never lets me down, and keeps me up and green
Day gives a new energy and the Sun new sheen.

In A Fix?
Contemplation in process,
Reckoning still to define
Belief swirls the way
Tide in the stream of mind.
So what! ideas will come and go
Some may hit, others not so
stand up! have courage to differ
lest orthodoxy remains God, so bow
Blessed are the ones
Who imagines and rethink
Translates em into words
Solve koans, brings life in sync.
True! the course never is simple
has more blunders, less shines
Than what worth is a life
afraid of slopes, fear declines.

That Despicable Self! !
Selfish people
With indulgent lives
Denying others
Even vulgarity shys.
Living on lies
Eating on vile
Mean in sight
Despicable smile.
Using nobility
And virtue metaphors
Are at loss
These bigoted trolls.
Rage overpowers against
Such brainless fanatics
Deal very wisely
And method Socratic.

Life's Race
All want, the best things of Time
Burn ourself and always whine
Regret & lament, nothings good enough
Life was hard and too much tough
Magnify the context, Content unknown
Left the meaning of life Alone
Our much is little, more is less
Wants are the Needs, We always Press
Such higher and Intelligent Beings
Who take Life as End, not just Means
Purpose was Happiness, finding Glee
Accessed by some who were free
Rest ran Fast and Won their Race
But Lost to Life, when matched Pace.

Spring is Here
Daisies are dancing
And Dandelions watching
Grass flaunting her green
Winter gone; now spring is the Queen
See daffodiles and tulips
Lilacs or Muscari's pointy tips
It's beautiful transition, but won't stay
Months are March, April and May
Notice the blossomed cherry tree
Blooming Sakura worth to see
Flying around are the honey bees
God I want this time to freeze
Spring brought new life and hope
Eternal Fall isn't easy to cope
So, sit and enjoy nature's spree
Blessing of life very free

I am Enough! !
I remind myself constantly
That learning from mistakes is a rare ability.
Have that strength to overcome trials
Smile in hard times, consider whining a vile.
Keep head high when the world's falling
Miracles of nature, do find their calling.
Wonderful beings with power enormous
Laugh and be grateful, even for small stuff.
Say: I want to live every moment of life
Without thinking of tomorrow, in present I dive.
I am enough and I will be fine
Never let life's bitterness, shape or define.

Age of Distraction
Life busy, accompanying Distractions
Modern technology are addictive attractions
Preoccupation there, concentration lacking
your precious time this self indulgence hacking
gratifications costing your work efficiency
Other times family sensing deficiency
Purpose of life lost & astray
Digital dieting is call for the day
Cue is prioritizing needs and wants
Productive engagement necessary to ascent this Mont
Balancing the family, work n modern life
Existence much wholesome, wellness thrives.
