As ravens, Pharisees were filled with destructive pleasures.
Termites of Puritanism had been eating up their minds?
They thought they had fallen from heaven as truth possessors.
Each of their ape-like actions, had endless evil designs.
Poor humans, unlike these, worked six days physically hard.
Shouldn't they rest to vitalize their physique and psyche?
The Sabbath was a day of rest. It's a day to thank God
This day too, they loaded the poor with rules that were sickly
Carrying one's cot is wrong. Grassing the cattle is wrong.
Picking heads of grain to eat, is equal to harvesting.
Helping is wrong. Healing is wrong. The list grew very long.
We are right, and not you—that's the sense they were harboring
Sly laws, like elephant-calf pits, put the poor in danger.
It's then that Jesus came as the trend-setter and game changer.

Mourn me not when I am dead,
Gone to a place remote from this land;
When thou canst no more say:
‘I love thee in just this way;’
Nor tell me jokes, nor kiss my hand.
Reminisce of me nevermore when in bed,
Just know that I & life were never friends;
Recall that life was just my living –that’s all.
So, the moon shone and declared my passing;
My body lifeless, for the moon saw me grassing
My days with prayer, but that was just a holy call
And no one should weep when my life ends.
Like the period of autumn in every leasing year,
Bid me farewell when transitory be my lifespan, and –
Dost thou not mourn me, dost thou not mock me
Nor sing praises for me like a silent sea;
If such there be hope that I’ve not gone to a foreign land
When my blest soul enters the pearly gates, beware,
I shall sleep not mournful but better in my grave!
Knowing that my family and friends osculate me goodbye,
That with songs sincere they’ve only compared me with me,
That they rejoice with me as I travel to paradise, and be
Glad that Heaven will revive and revitalize me, so that I
As I die be the best that I could ever be with Heaven my cave.

The nature's wonderful...........
When the early morning sun breaks through the darkness
When the night tears dew spill morning from the sky
When the nature's tears raindrops pour down to the earth
When all those trees dancing in the breeze beside the lake
When all those daffodils and lavender fill the air with fragrances
When all those butterflies and bees fly high in search of honey
When all those wild mountains river are rushing through the valleys
When all those beauty of waterfalls grab heart of a nation
When all those mountain hills carpet with its greenery wonders
When all those innocent animals grassing on the hill sides
When all those bird's flight, as they climb and hover in the sky
When all those wild animals freely walk around the jungle
When all those seasons spring, summer, autumn, winter fill our heart with cheer.
When all those trouble hearts, the nature become a smooth healer
When all those pleasant of natures make their own display
Oh, my God, I praise you for all your truly gift of the nature's wonderful
