Best Heartiest Poems
In the meadow a frosty morning chill
Greets a lazy, rising autumn sun until
Warming rays melt the remaining dew
Heavily-clad, I shall think of you,
As I start my morning walk to the hill.
The path is slippery, requiring some skill
I am especially careful not to take a spill
In these moments, I shall remember you
In the meadow.
‘Tis hard not to notice the cold-snap kill
Since I love the meadow, it’s a bitter pill
All that remains is the heartiest feverfew
With crystalline hints of bold derring-do,
Strolling along, I shall think of you still
In the meadow.

Spring Sonata
When the queen of seasons serenades her sonata
And the spring sun spreads its soft shine on earth,
It`s time for daisies purple and blue to take birth anew,
For lilies pink and white to spring out from slumber
And daffodils yellow to garb on a new dress.
When the spring shine gently warms the air far and wide,
It`s time for camellias deep red to parade their blooms,
Vie with the splendour of tulips orange
And spy the frolics of skillful bees
Stealing nectar from the midst of flowers.
When the sweet breeze of spring sings its song,
It`s time for flowers to display their pomp
And their brilliance to all observant eyes,
Pervade the air with their delicious scent
And radiate the joy of life and living.
When the spring morn creeps in at dawn,
It`s time to lend ears to sparrows
Tweeting and twittering at ease
Amidst robins chirping with grace
While scanning the air with flapping wings.
When the moon and stars of spring slips in,
It`s time for sages to stare at the shine
Subdued by a slight breeze that caresses the skin,
And for staunch lovers to stitch sweet sugary dreams
In the stark silence of their silken couch.
When the gentle night of spring steps in,
It`s fitting time to scribble a serenade
To hail the gracious queen of seasons
And offer to her heartiest appreciation
For bestowing on man her generous boons.
“Are you sleeping still on Bed?
Have a view of gift ahead,
Oh, the Eid crescent is above your head,
May this beautiful eve turn you crimson Red,
Accept heartiest greetings and tweet,
Because Can’t I buy the bunch of Sweet,
May thou feel head over heel,
And enjoy this festive with full zest and zeal,
Embrace, hug, and switch off all disputes,
And be the human of piety attributes,
This poem will go on and on, So
Keep on enjoying Eid with chirpy brow! ! !

It is better to have loved
and lost
than to never have loved at all - - - - -
You then get to taste
the full spectrum of emotions
that define us
as human beings.
The highs of being in love
to depths of breakup
Joys of companionship to
reflections of loneliness
Exhilarations of a relationship
envelope mildest hours,
trespass upon sanctities
of heartiest seclusions
dripping by lackluster
innuendos perplexed within
tripping feelings surpassed
by joys of indulgences
tempered with illuminations
of times past.
Narwhals, Is Chivalry Dead?
Narwhals cycle arctic coasts
amidst the icepack
ancient seasoned routes
swordfights, competition, Spring
female conquests are courted
mystic spiral tusks
alphas chose the heartiest
basking in the sun
coastline guides the species well

Hearts hear happiness breathing
Heavenly hope free of grieving
Hesitating a healing hearth leading
Home that happens to be heaving
Harm that has heard the pleading
Haunting hastening toward the meaning
Horse and buggy that hauls a load
Handles the hollow form of the code
Heartened heart who has always rode
Hoarded heavily inside their abode
Hoping to heal the heartiest ode
Having hopefulness which has flowed
Hallucinating a haven that might explode
Horseplay which leaves all of creation
Hope of a second chance to avoid temptation
Heaven happens to heal every relation
Hastening us all to last through the duration
Hues of angelic halos remind us of salvation

What about heart-rending?
Does it kill?
How many have died so far?
Who are those?
It is not going to be permanent
It is just a rent not rend
Who benefits more by the way?
Tenant, landlord?
Or both?
How does it feel to be heartless?
Do you even know?
You can’t, but your victims do
Heartlessness kills
Yes, it does
Nobody can function without a heart
Be it natural or artificial, it is vital
A heartless body is dead
Many souls are dead
Many are even dead to themselves
They cannot even rent their hearts to themselves
How can they do to neighbors then?
You will see them everywhere
Walk hopelessly
Even talk senselessly
Thinking that they are doing it to THEM
But little do they know it is done to them
Believe it or not
These are self-murders
They kill themselves before killing others
Burying their heads under the sand,
Ignoring the reality
But why?
They have lost themselves,
Maybe even their names
Only brave ones face reality
Courageous men strive for good
Living soul fight for goodness
You will see them fleeing from injustice
Always trying to do right
You will find them fitting into bigger shoes,
They do not fear whatsoever, all they want is unity
These speak to hearts
Heart-warming is their focus
They tug at heartstrings
They make heartening news,
Preventing heart failures
They are hearty
Heartiest
Full of life!
"This is not a Poem,
its a Heartiest Talk..
It touches Heart directly lyk,
Key opens the Lock.."
"Opening the Lock means,
sharing Friendship with Heart..
Feelings must be Pure,
that's ReLation's Best part.."
Some Personalities are Sweet,
just like a Cadbury Perk..
Some are quite Unique,
dedicated to their Hard Work.."
"Among those Unique names,
She is One of them..
Who is, for Her Family,
just lyk a Precious Gem.."
"She cleared ProbLems easily,
in a Sure Success Ride..
As she is Blessed with,
her FamiLy's Knowledge Guide.."
"Have aLL SmiLing Moments,
with My FaithfuL Greetings..
Your Life Be PLeasuring forever,
with God TruthfuL Treatings.."
The 'dusk' has arrived
The sun has willingly bowed
Down the silver lined Clouds
With departure framed waves
Encompassing luminous Rays,
As I sit by the window of solitude
Watching the 'dusk ' in control,allowing the dawn to emerge,
There lies a perfumed silence of your feathered touch
That’s broken by the ticking of time..
Perchance amidst my Heart,
A peculiar numbness rests
As an empty vessel must feel
And images captured in reel
Deep inside, poetry is clove hitched
Amidst my throbbing Heart
And my trembling lips are stuck
To extract voluptuous words
For I’ve battled for hours, darling
Yet fluttering like Caterpillars
They deny settling on the white
Blank paper enveloped on my lap
Memories smitten by your Love,
Vigor and dynamic persona
Have kept me awake all night long
So much so that I blush in hush
If solitude is that intoxicating
Then I’d yearn to march endlessly
To catch one little reminiscence
Of our heartiest conversation
How I long for a Rendezvous
With this sumptuous solitude
To write a chronicle of our fondness
But your Name itself suffices.
I feel so proud to be an *Indian Soldier*,
My volition is same when I was a child or have become older,
I'm glad that I choose my nation over everything,
Be it my family, myself or anything...
I live every little moment of my life,
Whether it's fearful, loneliness, happiness or strive,
Yes, I too have loving parents, children & a beloved wife,
But my heart chooses to put first my nation's pride...
I leave my loving world to protect your loving world,
Away from home, I also get numb,
For a moment I relive my family moments & smile for a while,
The very next moment I'm a soldier, I keep that in mind...
I'm the one who bears the mercury plummets to sub-zero level,
Hands get freeze but I've to win my battle,
I live in dense fog, icy winds, torridity & humidity,
I'm truly an unsung hero with no publicity...
Well, being a soldier is not that tough,
But essential is to have a heart full of 'country love',
An immoral feeling of sacrificing everything for your nation,
No matter what or how is the situation...
A soldier never dies,
He wins life's every fight,
He becomes proudly memorable,
Medals come on the chest or he's wrapped up in *The Tricolour...*
Jai Hind, Jai Bharat.

My Christmas
To me Christmas is a Grand Celebration
irrespective of any religion,
world- wide accepted by every nation.
Exchange of warm wishes is prime.
Entertainment and heartiest Greeting
cheerful, joyful, beautiful meting
of friends, relatives, family and sibling
yearns to enjoy the festive time.
Happy birthday to Jesus, the Great Personality
I do not value Hinduism or Christianity.
By birth though Hindu, I honour only Humanity
the unique religion I like to follow.
Each year I decorate Christmas Tree.
I hang stars, jingle bells to swing free.
I invite my loved ones and make merry.
Bright candles are lighted and delighted to glow

Under the sky of the twinkling night,
My mind flew like the untidy kite,
That knocked the door of her gloomy thoughts,
And made me for a second totally clot.
Suddenly I realized my eyes were wet,
Feeling the colourful bonanza of that mate,
Who never gave me a chance,
To consider her my heartiest companion for once.
I don’t know what will be the climax of this love story,
As everyone thinks I have about her no worry,
But what my heart wants no one knows,
In my every smile my whole grip blows,
Creating the blockage of my happiness,
And snatching from me all my confidence.
Please give me the suggestion what to do,
Please tell me if you get any clue,
To over bream my heart with the love of her,
And help me to get victory in his love war……
