It's always seems cool to be fair;
If YES isn't going to be a NO,
Before it gets so unaware-
How possible NO could twist YES to grow!
Look for dominance,
Doesn't define relevance
But stages violence.
It's never late to be so real;
If SMILE will not be staged as a fierce FROWN,
Before it lure mind to unseal-
How tricky FROWN could tag SMILE, a clown!
Dominance for look,
Doesn't get good minds on hook
But bluntly pierce shook.
It's ever great to be honest;
If TRUTH can dare lighten up blatant LIE,
Before it paints heart so modest-
How sweetest LIE could jail peaceful TRUTH's tie!
Dominance look for,
Competency to explore
Then turn its mentor.
Lit a Light
For arousing the Curiosity
Ignite the minds
For encouraging a new scientific discovery
Empower them
with basics of Science and technology
Who knows there may be a budding scientist
Amidst this serenity.
Prepare our students for Global Competency
To fight against all adversity
As we are meant to impart
Quality education for personality and for Nationality.

Commitment
Dealing with the adversity
Staring into complacency
The fact that they lie is the majority
The moment the truth is an obituary
We stress to test our humanity
To see if we have morality
But we dont know our own limits
So we underestimate our competency
The severity of your impunity
Derived from the clarity of your immunity
The absence of longevity
The presence of obscurity
It is not only the weather that is unreliable these days.
Spring cleaning now happens only in most people's dreams,
Or when something lost leave few alternatives,
To entering the domain of spiders and other creepy crawlies,
And praying there are no wasp nests.
For me it was a chance to declutter and re-arrange ,
While my wife was out of range,
And it seemed the right time to make the change,
While my body is still up to the challenge,
And my mind still within the recommended competency range,
That reduces the need for an ambulance to arrange.
Of course it may not have happened in any season
If my daughter had not given a good reason,
To prepare for her moving back in this winter season.
With our grandson, to give me even more reason.
CORRIDORS OF LEARNING
I sat on my hands while
she questioned my competency
saw her mascara leaking
Slow murky tears
Master and Servant
weighing one another’s wounds
each curious about the other’s past
the other’s heart
her spine erect with “The Present”
mine curved with centuries
Of enslavement
Her lips blood red with lure
mine depression’s pale
I wore the crisp white shirt
Of Director
knew what leather shoes to buy
Trained to dot I’s and cross T’s
Was this the Freedom I desired ?
wires across my mind still askew
knotted and disconnected
I walked the Corridors of Learning
towards my boiled egg sandwich

LIFE SHOULD BE MEANINGFUL:
Welcome to a new day...!
Look at life here on earth today,
It will definitely grow old,someday.
Even if it doesn't ... Just to say,
Then it would die young along the way.
Life is very beautiful,
When it's meaningful.
Moving with deems...,
Growing with dreams.
That was a piece of childhood.
A moment a child wish for adulthood.
Thinking it's all happiness to be an adult.
The reality is blurred so we lay an exult.
Childhood is filled with folly,
Where you only wish for a revue.
It's a jolly,
Where we later make a review.
Stuck with themes...!
Dyeing with schemes.
The chapter of life full of advice.
Where life experiences are apprised,
And mistakes become regrets,
When wasted times lack refrets.
Well,achievements bring fulfillment,
And futility brings disappointment.
Adulthood is braided with maturity,
Where as childhood with absurdity.
Well,age doesn't determines competency,
And appearance never determined by complacency.
Life should be well lived,
To Prevent future grief.

Start from square one
Pick the low hanging fruit
Work smarter not harder
Drill down to the root
Dive deeper going forward
Get a swat team, touch base
Square the circle, value added
Reach out - save face
Game changer, deal breaker
No brainer, ad hoc
Move the dial, close the deal
Plant the seeds, walk the talk
Get the metrics, crunch the numbers
Roll the rock up the hill
Make the forecast robust
And may the variance be nil
Pump up the expenses
Relax from your flap
Keep an eye on the audits
But don’t worry about GAAP
Plan B with your A game
Ahead of the curve
Drink the Koolaid, baked in
Take a risk, get a nerve
Low ball it, blue sky it
Step off the grid
Use buy-in and win-win and
Get a core competency, kid
Manage up, manage down
Then pull up your sox
And at the end of the day...
...at the end of the day…
think outside the box !

Woohowoo... ready?... go...

Look at the sky...

You are the guide of our child.
You guide the child and

to explain,
to elaborate,
and to evaluate
every competency
of the day's lesson.
You guide the child
to become a better citizen

you must build a dream team to live your dream and the captain should not be your brother-inlaw. your 5% normal mental competency should be increased to ah hundred percent..negate energy on wasted time spent and hence move forward, do not internalize doubt and hearsay..hearsay said einstein can't get through high school. develop your own rules. to live your dream you must have a dream team, even the lone ranger had tonto.
SPEAK YOURSELF
LOVE YOURSELF
SPEAK YOURSELF-
IF YOU WANT TO BE RELAXED
IF YOU WANT A' FUTURE WITHOUT REGRETS'
DON'T BE SO COY
SENSE THE MOMENT OF JOY
NEVER BE STRESSFUL
JUST SPEAK ..
BECAUSE ONCE YOU SPEAK YOURSELF
YOU FIND YOURSELF
YOU REALISE WHO YOU ARE
YOU REALISE YOUR COMPETENCY
MAYBE YOU MADE A MISTAKE YESTERDAY
BUT YESTERDAY'S YOU
IS STILL YOU….
YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE TODAY
WITH ALL YOUR FAULTS.
TOMORROW YOU MIGHT BE A TINY BIT WISER
BUT THAT WILL STILL BE YOU
THOSE FALLS AND MISTAKES ARE WHO YOU ARE
MAKING OF THE BRIGHTEST STARS
IN THE CONSTELLATION OF YOUR LIFE.
YOU HAVE TO LOVE YOURSELF
FOR WHO YOU WERE
WHO YOU ARE AND
WHO YOU HOPE TO BECOME
LET US ALL TAKE ONE MORE STEP
WE HAVE LEARNT TO LOVE OURSELVES
NOW I URGE YOU TO SPEAK YOURSELF
NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE
WHERE YOU ARE FROM
YOUR SKIN COLOUR, GENDER IDENTITY
FIND YOUR NAME, FIND YOUR VOICE
BY SPEAKING YOURSELF

Blessings* from God abound!!!
They come flourishing by His grace
flowing through His mercy
overtaking along His compassion:
…faith’s performance … virtue’s elegance
…servanthood delight … leadership light
…trust-steadfastness … obedience-willingness
…kindness fervency … stewardship competency
…soulwinning victory … supplication glory---
These are more precious than earthly gold
priceless as heavenly investment
worthy of sharing generously since...
They are blessings that multiply beyond what's eternal!!!
*Deuteronomy 28:2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

Competency is living your truth
Creating your life, as if it was never really here
For it is not and cannot be as long as you are there
Looking out of a fishbowl
That needs to be broken
So you can swim in oceans, not bowls
Respect yourself enough to take the action steps now
Do not squander ten or thirty years wishing aloud
For the things you were never brave enough to go after.
Run with all of your might
Toward the you whom you have
Yearned to know since the beginning.
Pick up your sad sorry self, and wipe the
depression off your chest. scrape it with a pancake spatula
throwing it onto the sorry gray tile you have always hated
Set fire to the TV and the computer.
You are opportunity.
You are possibility.
You are invincible.
Go out naked, into the light.
Throw open the sun.
Just go,
Create the faerie pirate queen
You know is inside pounding to get out.
A howler when I purse my lips
Cutting off my nose to spite my face
When on purpose I beat my chest in cribs
Where restraint, respect and reflection erase the trace and brace
Immersed in consistency, competency and congruency
Within realms usually teeming with compromise
For the sake of efficacy
Riding on the back of surprise at sunrise
In a panorama that suggests ability
To consider in depth views of interlocutors
Unless fragility and futility
Boosted by persecutors and prosecutors
Whose short-sightedness comes to the fore
Upon close scrutiny
Of the core
That accelerated the mutiny
In which self-harm metamorphosed into an illusion
Pushed to the limit and beyond conjecture value
Raising the profile in the full glare of the delusion
Whose true blue glue without a clue
Led me to assert the naïve notion
That a wrong could engender a right
By virtue of mere assertion
In benighted circumstances whose blight
Came undone
When far from earning me fame
Succeeded in repelling prospects of the pardon
For which I long as to my name I attached a plethora of blighted blame.
Illumination from the entrance
Make it vivid that Jefferson is ‘crazy’
Scripts splatter on the bare floor
Engulf with writings from the mind
Dramatizing the lines with emotions
Aghast! I stand watching the Jefferson
Displaying competency in a dramatics loom
Madness of characterization of the lines make the
Poems visible from his drama the dance steps
in resonance with the utterances as he maneuvers moves stealthily
is Jefferson crazy?
Before I could write the last line
Suddenly, he falls and breathes endlessly
He lay like a tired butterfly…
Have you seen one before?
‘I don’t have a pen’ he recounts
‘I don’t have a pen ‘ he utters breathing heavily
I don’t have a pen too I respond
I was just writing from my mind
On the table I see the line
‘I don’t have a pen’.
