Who is who

Man and woman,the children of God
brothers and sisters, aren't they?
Any other relation which they make
it's honorable when love is its base
To propagate love and to prosper much
the divine power blesses humans as such
The creation renews, old gives way to the new
which raises its head like a new bloom
But when the time comes, everyone is alone
who is who but a soul, that longs to meet its Love
having waited a lifetime, now it's on its way high above!

Do all for today

Does it rain day after day
in drought too the wise make hay
When spirit is lifted and there is song on the lip
one sees sunshine even on a cloudy day
Each day is different, one can do things different
why wait for the sky to clear and waste another day
Which day brings what none can ever say
so do all for today, 'morrow be whatever it may!

Charity

It's not easy to give
even that one doesn't need
So when one gives it's a noble deed
even though it comes with a label or string
One who creates wealth by ethical means
exalts oneself and does much service
but an emptiness still remains within
And when one begins giving of it
the cosmos fill with peace the emptiness within!

Raise oneself

One who thinks of oneself
is considered selfish
Where family comes first
one is sacrificing
When others matter no less
one is evolved
Where one feels for everyone
one becomes a man
But man is not alone on this earth
there are mountains and rivers
the plants and trees
and other creatures too
One who thinks of them all
is a sage ,a man truly raised!

Living naturally

Cook without fire
pedal on bicycle
the matters of nature
take them not lightly
Live not in congestion
but fan out beautifully
to enjoy the gifts of nature
fully and gracefully
Health is the true wealth
seek it diligently
all else shall follow
well measured and rightly!

My friend

My friend and I
see not eye to eye
many a time
He well read
and talented
but in every thing
I lag behind
not a few steps
but hundred miles
Yet he comes back
to hold my hand
and takes me there
where he stands!

We mean it

Air we breathe
water we drink
food we eat
a threat it is
to our organism
We made it so
and didn't care
for we could choose
But not so any more
it pinches us now
wherever we go
and affects our children
worse and more
Where to send them
they don't want to go
and settle in foreign shores
A change has come
but a little too late
we have no choice
but here to stay
An opportunity has arisen
what our children dream
they want to make a future
which can't be bleak
We'll mange all this
the filth and pollution
and flies and disease
and make our land
beautiful and rich
and now we mean it!

Music of the spheres

Music of the spheres
its waves and beats
in silence it touches
the chords inside deep
But none understands
its origin and mystery
timeless and limitless
it keeps resonating
Some who are attuned
in love with its tune
they feel its intensity
how subtle and deep
They sing who feel
their soul stirred deep
to follow its beats
and make some soulful music
Poetry it becomes
no explanation it needs
the music of the spheres
it keeps ever flowing!

What keeps her young

I asked her
what keeps her young?
She replied
"nothing in particular"
But what is that nothing
I asked her again
She waited a moment
and then said gently
"nothing it's in particular"
When others are getting old
why not she, I muttered
"Let me think over it "she said
and then whispered close to me
"I feel in my twenties
and haven't come out of it"
I got it, I said
what she meant
that's why she remains
in her twenties!

A friend

My friend and I
many a time
see not eye to eye
he well read
and talented
in every thing
I lag behind
not a few steps
but miles behind
yet he looks back
and lends a hand
but gives me credit
where I stand!
