Best Mahatma Poems

His deepest belief was in truth,
His greatest faith was in God,
He was selfless in his pursuit,
Millions followed where he trod!

He wore no crown, robes or tie,
He was no king, had no kingdom,
Thin and small at five foot five,
He won his people their freedom!

He lived life...

The saint of Sabarmati
Our great Mahatma Gandhi
Lived a life of simplicity
And marched towards Dandi
For India to attain freedom
He strived day and night
Even attained martyrdom
To keep our future bright
His Quit India movement
And call of ‘Do or Die’
Reminded Indians of their commitment
To the glorious days gone by
The...

He would have dissolved the congress party
Would have stopped at once all its festivity
Certainly would have gone on hunger strike
And, would have, launched a blistering attack.

He would have wholly banned the sacred khadi
That some time ago symbolized utmost sanctity
According to him it stood for human...

we come in peace
we are rent to pieces
pieces of beads we offer
pieces of soul we barter
barter is fine with us
barter your beads for our gold
gold is our guide
gold is your god
god we bring to you
god was always there    
there is a distant...

One week ago, a suicide bomber, a murderer took many lives at the Manchester Arena 
The police are hunting down his accomplices to subpoena 
It seems that the papers have nothing better to do than to show his face to us every day
Replaying each and...

(A double Rhyme Royal)

     Freedom is not worth the having…if not,
     it includes the freedom to make mistakes.
     Love the sinner, though not the sinner’s plot.
     Give freedom of...

The name Mahatma Gandhi is synonymous with truth
But he was not an epitome of truth by birth 
His mother Putlibai had had strong religious faith
Unless and until rituals completed, she used to hold breath 

She also practiced the sacred "Kokila Vratha" - a vow ritual
She...

Mahatma Gandhi came in Sonia’s dream
And asked her about his cap, specs and staff
That he gave at his death to Congress Team
She replied that the congress shares the half
My son wears cap in public to rebuff
Specs with the Prime Minister Manmohan
Only thing with me is...

I saw the top twirl
As he whispered over again to the crowd,
“You must be the change you wish to see in the world”
I breathed in his air as he did the same to me.
I could feel his presence,
His pressure
And yet he had no name.
He was...

My humble tribute to a great personality:

When India won freedom, he did not attend the celebration, rather he was on road helping all, trying to end communal violence. He said how can I celebrate when so many are in distress.

He is my role model
His life, an inspiration to me

Did some research on him
Since then am in awe of him

Empath at heart,
he dedicated his life in selfless service

Saw teeming millions without dress
Wore a simple dothi like them

Wherever he found people suffering
Took up their cause, fought...

Loincloth was his dress;
Truth was his address.
Nonviolence was his armor;
A warrior and a perfect charmer.
A man of progress,
And an epitome of success.
He is the ‘Father of our Nation’;
He is our Mahatma!

On this day, day
we reminisce our past, 
Let this freedom last,
Deep in of Love hearts a flame is lit, 
Of love and True Spirit;

Years ago, Gandhiji fought.. 
And brought back our freedom; 
The ahimsa that he preached, 
Reached miles and miles away.

The Dandi March he...

The "Trilogy of Non-Violence" advocates peacefully uplift humanity
Humanity is to behold a peaceful way of overcoming the struggle of life.
Life, where all souls are valuable and with love are diminishing hate
Hate! Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. states, "Driven out by the light."
 
Light of the...
