Focus and excel

Waters blue the sky blue
vapors rise and become
raindrops and dew.
Blue I uphold
much power is in blue
before the night falls
there's a bluish hue.
A blue flower I'm
through and through
focus on one thing
and excel in something
to make your life
and uplift a few!

Reflections never lie

Water is life
and life sways
lotuses float
and trees shake
reflections dance
like bathing beauties
how lively they look
and enhance the charm
of a lake and a pond.
Reflect on life once in a while and reflections never lie!
Live life like a lotus
in contemplation and reflection
though rooted in muddy waters
it remains untouched by mud or water!

A flower with a cup

A flower with a cup
deep and with a rim
where come to rest
the weary and thirsty
my guests who are
and are invited inside
for a welcome drink.
Nature's cup is never empty
and bottomless is its pit
drink as much as you can
but the world is ever thirsty.
Come out of your houses large and big
what they are but cement,steel and concrete
why live in such a make believe world
when reality abounds in dearth and need!

Hope and wait

Hold and wait
life spent in wait
the rest that remains
a good portion sleep takes
the left over is for work
most of which is personal.
Where is the time to work
for the society and the world
there too when one shirks
what shall be the result?
In hope one can live
which may remain unfulfilled
and then one leaves in much hope
that better the hereafter would be!

Essence of life

We are flowers

on bushes and trees
with roots grounded
firm and deep.
We wonder and watch
the life on the move
that brings the news
as it comes and moves.
One who understands
tarries to watch
we speak to him
and in silence he nods.
Life is life
though of different types
each a page
in the book of life
the book is one
and so is the essence of life!

Raise a flag

Green is its frock
and orange scarf
washed with sunlight
the plant and flower.
Orange,white and green
freedom is marked in thee
a blue wheel sits in between
symbol of non violence and peace.
Nature knows what is
it unfolds continually
sacrifices go not in vain
raise the flag in memory
orange,white and green
the white with a blue chakra
twenty four spokes that speak peace.
Nature flowers in peace
and flowers smile and greet
the times are ever changing
but the flowers talk love and peace!
