Business Closed
A peaceful march
It was planned
Authorities they thought
Will realize their folly
And yield to the demands
It did not happen
Both parties thought
Each was right
Mediation failed
Solution interrupted
And emotions flared
Violence erupted
Business was closed
Never to open.

Success
Add something
Extra to turn
The ordinary
To extraordinary
Try hard
And improve
Let this process
Be continuous
Short's life
Time's long
This moment, real
Let this not be lost.
Easy to say
I know not
And easier to find
What you don't

Come with Me
He knocked at my
Mind's door and said
'What do you think if I ask
You to come with me? '
What a great fortune it is
The Creator's invitation
I had no answer but to follow
Without any hesitation...
It's always a good practice
To leave nothing incomplete
And be able to get a release
Simply at a short notice.

A Wish
Age, it's like time
Keeps on moving into the past
Spoken word, like melodious chime
Mingles into the space that's vast.
I think and I wonder
When will I do what I want to do?
I work, I try and I wander
When will I see things through.
If only I can accomplish
A fraction of what I want
I will feel, I fulfilled my wish
And exit this world with a chant.

Artistic
Artistic
It's artistic
Grace in your movement
Is artistic.
Artistic
It's artistic
Sweetness in your voice
Is artistic.
Artistic
It's artistic
Gleam in your eye
Is artistic.
I'm filled with inspiration
In my dormant artistic pursuit...
With brush in hand
I'll paint your every move

Our Mission
They left this world
Noble souls
They set examples
By word and deed
Life's easy for all
Left ashore
We who live
Must tread their path
Our mission's clear
To leave a world
Both safe and sound
A world filled with
Peace and love
Faith and hope
For all the future
Generations to come
Let trees grow
And rivers flow

Cleaning Lady
She knows where the dirt settles
She knows how to clean
She knows how to wet the floor
And polish it to shine
Power of the vacuum
And reach of the broom
She knows her business
A true professional.
In chaos I see order
I know how the world moves,
Dynamics of dirt
And way things rust
Are hard for me to handle
All in a timely way.
At her hands
The faucets sparkle
Her touch turns
House to home

Observe
Observe closely
Every atom has
The power
Of creation.
Inside a seed
Is a sprout
And a crop
To reap.
Hidden in
Each seed
Is food
For all mankind.
A small
Sewing needle
Represents progress
Of civilization.

Golden Memories
Colors in the rainbow
Violet and indigo
Flowers in the garden
Smiling in the sun...
Clouds in the sky
I wish I could fly
On the wings of my thoughts
To the lands of my dreams...
Towering mountains
Strewn with fountains
Sprawling meadows
With everflowing streams...
Songs of the birds
Waves on the seas
Playing in tune
To the melodies...

Baby Shower
Welcome baby
You ‘re awaited
Hear the cheers
Happiness inside
Happiness around
Happiness sprinkled
Here and there
And everywhere…
Mom takes the pounding
Dad gets anxious
And grand parents
Bouncing with delight
Rare ones in all colors
They gather one by one…
A room full of toys
Not enough anymore.
Here we are
Sharing the moments
