The whole world demeanor wild and chaotic,
From one creature to another,
Rivals, a definition of our hearts,
Dirty competition, our goal.
Plutocracy, a depiction of our societies.
Oh God! Where is your universe heading to?
If we all be such heartless?
Isn't the young generation observing us?
If yes, won't they insert this seed of impurity in the next generations?
Yes, I don't repudiate having a shepherd leading a flock,
But why not there respect for one another?
You won't stress the sheep because you are prestigious.
You'll eat it when fatty but not small due to stress.
Here comes a suggestion,
Let leaders be dutiful to everyone, no more segregation.
Rich people now respect the poor,
Married ones esteem singles,
Parents regard your children.
Coz tables can turn when you'll need the one you hurt.

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it"
Quote _ by E.E. Cummings
Your touches, kisses, embraces; and each loving gesture;
Your angel-filled, heaven-filled even phantom-filled stories;
Your flavorful delicacies; thoughtfully-spun vesture;
Your care when I was ill, more than my mother, for my ease...
I competed, at your thrust, picking cashew-nuts and plums,
Your encouragements made me successful in little works;
Though I could find never a single tooth in your pink gums,
There was a miraculous balm in your smile, with no smirks...
Your dutifulness, compassion, warmth, affection and trust,
Coolness in dealings; respect to all, full of innocence;
Never feeling bored, as with everything you could adjust;
Optimism and other virtues have become my essence...
Rest In Peace, O Grandma, at the hands of eternity,
Until we meet again in heavenly fraternity...!

To mona
Last night I had kaka in dream
We both were byking to an unknown inn
To bodewar sister
I think I first saw her in Umri Hospital
When she was looking after her spouse critical
Impressed by her dutifulness
Learnt the meaning of marriage I assess
Charming girl with nature sweet
In her eyes sacredness in feet
My friend’s sister so obviously we knew
Each other though we never met true
That was visible from her way
How she was helpful to my gran I say..!
Today being her birth day great
I wish her from my heart straight..!!
!!..Lord Goddess Subhashini..!!
When You were announced as First
Lady
Gave me a feeling of Subhash’(ini)’s melody
As if He became US Prez
And You in White House with ease
Enjoyed the words by Lord Rama(na)
Extolling You as First Lady of NASA
Of course my joy knew no bound
When he retiorated Thy name abound
‘451513123541’ means deity great
Bestower of prosperity straight
You being my Goddess gorgeous
I feel proud of Thee precious
May You ever keep me blessed
While having all terrains graced..!!

His prayer...
He will hear
He has held me dear
He held me dear without a fear
That will give us cheer
Wondrous as ever
He drowns out fear
Don’t say whatever
Let’s hold us near
Hopefulness and helpfulness
Distress and dreamful dutifulness
Will disappear in happiness
Excess excellence will be in progress
Reduce me to radiant shine tonight
Give me a daydreamer’s might...
Holy Spirit is holding us in fearlessness
Freedom and faith loves us regardless
Fret won’t get us into debt
It’s ok to get upset...upset...
I don’t want to be filled with regret
Anymore...anymore...anymore...
I’m going under...under...
Beneath the lies asunder
Let’s put our love in a blender
I don’t mean to be an offender
We are a perfect pair
Life just gets so unfair
You want one thing,
Then you change your mind and everything
We need a break from each other
Like a son and a mother,
Getting sick of one another
But, yet abundant love and protection is needed
The glory of God is oh so exhilarating
I am sick of hating and sick of debating
