Wisdom

Hi all,
This poem may seem a little on the 'heavy' in terms of the weight of it's meaning... guess it's poem about the 'Wise' and hence it's heavy, eh ;). Read on...


Ø Wisdom is one of life's most crucial success elements,
That helps in communicating the right sentiments,
Creating an environment of sheer pleasure,
As we graduate through different phases of life at leisure.


Ø Wisdom is symbolized by the radiance of high intellect subtly.
A wise person would epitomize an indescribable level of humility.
As the wise know that it is a ‘special gift’ to be a common man,
Enjoying life’s little pleasures as much as they can.


Ø Wisdom lies within a mature mind,
That understands the complexities of the daily grind.
Yet there is absolute clarity and the Wise can see beyond the obvious,
And delve into realities of the Universe buried even in one’s subconscious (mind).


Ø Wisdom in a person depicts the purity of mind and heart–
A mind that is clear of fallacies and speaking the language of the heart.
Wise people have a great sense of virtues,
As they are constantly directed by righteous principles to be true.


Ø Wisdom cannot be bought through wealth or power,
Though it can be earned from people who display and shower:
Bliss and knowledge on people across different frontiers,
Rising above all differences of race, color, creed barred by no barriers.


Ø Wisdom arises from human nature which is free from sin,
Having overcome greed, jealousy, lust and anger that could cause a din.
Wise people empathize deeply from within,
Keeping their patience high through times that are thick and thin.


Ø Wisdom is a gift to the spiritually uplifted beings,
That helps them tide through the ocean of mortal living beings.
Wisdom helps maintain a balanced state of mind,
Greatly inspiring the ‘Buddha’ within to unwind.


Ø Wisdom, is thus, a precious gift of an enlightened soul.
Who seeks solace in the Higher Self / soul.
My friends – the companionship of wise people is the secret to a great life,
So partner with the Wise and virtuous and find a route to leading an enlightened life!

The Beauties of Mother Nature

Hi all,
This poem is a dedication to Nature as different aspects of Nature inspire me each day to move ahead. I believe we should respect and love Mother Nature for all that She offers us. Read on....


Ø As I opened my eyes one morning,
I was caressed by a brush of fresh breeze storming,
Through my entire being, stimulating my senses to ponder,
About God’s Universal creations that are a sheer wonder.


Ø Nature’s beauties are abounding and awe-inspiring,
Amidst the snow-capped mountains and peaceful lakes offering,
An unimaginable diverse set of picturesque leisure zones,
Where one can surrender to Nature’s treasured thrones.


Ø Nature’s beauties extend to the joyful cry of a new-born,
That ring bells in our ears and hearts of a new dawn,
Of a newfound path, a rising future that is waiting to be molded,
By this little one - each day in it’s life, as it is unfolded.


Ø As the winds set their footprints on the sands of time,
And the clock ticks away it’s routinely chime,
Nature’s beauties are crying out loud about man-made perils,
Caused due to Man’s steadily destructive nature exhibited by his devil.


Ø It is our responsibility to preserve Mother Nature’s beauties,
While continuing to explore new emerging marvel territories,
To treasure the gifts of Nature for our future generations,
Endeavoring, thus, to commit ourselves to creating exotic world destinations.

The Mystery of the Journey of Life.....

Hi all,
The journey of our lives is inspiring...each path is unique following a specific course. I write this poem inspired by the complex yet mysterious journey of life! Read on.....

Ø One often experiences moments of wonderment and awe,
While trying to decipher the mysterious journey of life and thaw,
On linkages to an unknown related past,
That may have an impact on the present, passing so fast.


Ø Sometimes one experiences deep sorrow,
That’s when life’s path seems pretty narrow.
During other phases one experiences sheer ecstasy,
That are beyond one’s wildest fantasy.


Ø There is a deep thirst to know the true purpose of our existence,
While traveling through an ensuing mindless persistence.
Deep inside one yearns to know how to create that unforgettable mark,
Exhibited by people of great vigor, intellect, fuelled by an inner spark.


Ø The enlightened soul realizes that each day is an opportunity,
To spread radiance around people in entirety.
As the life within us is only an extension,
Of the Universal light in all its manifestation.


Ø There must be a clear Line of Sight to accomplishing the objectives,
Growing and evolving each day with newer perspectives.
As the ultimate mission of this life is to learn and know,
And realize the true potential of the person within, as we grow.


Ø Thus the Mystery of the Journey of life can be unraveled,
For our minds to simply comprehend and marvel,
At the beauty of complexity co-existing peacefully amidst simplicity,
While we thread our steps candidly, creating history.

Just One Chance!

Hi all,

I had written this poem way back in 2004-05 and wish to share it with you all. I believe that we are given Just One Chance to make a difference in the lives of people of this world. So let's make the best of this opportunity. Read on...


ð It never dawned on me that I had grown up
To face the challenges that life threw up
Suddenly I was in the midst of a pandemonium
Carrying a soul fermenting sheer oblivion.


ð Sometimes in life it is astonishing
To witness opportunities diminishing
For making the best of our life in all probability
Due to the absence of our vivacity and humility.


ð Few people choose to “Live” life wisely
While enlightening others’ hearts lovingly
What with their “Never Say Die” soaring spirit,
And all the smiles in the universe to their credit.


ð Life leaves it to you to make the choice
Whether you wish to smile or create a noise
Remember, we get just one chance,
To brighten the lives of worldly souls in life’s trance.

The Power of Self-Will

Hi all,

This poem maybe inspiring for those who believe in the Power of the Human Spirit and the Power of an individual's Self-Will that is critical for achieving one's dreams. Read on....


Ø Its difficult to understand why sometimes,
As much as we try avoiding, we face rough times,
Causing heartbreak for ourselves and others,
Massacring the very purpose of GIVING - to our loved ones, fellow sisters and brothers.


Ø That is the time to look within and learn,
By searching for answers that one yearns.
It’s then that one needs to have patience to climb the wall,
To be able to turn one’s dreams into reality that currently stand so far and tall.


Ø It’s never too late to start off on your mission,
To make that significant difference in this world station.
To shower a little bit of light around you,
Making it worthwhile for people to be with you.


Ø It is the magnanimous Power of Self-Will,
That helps each individual fulfill,
One’s dreams and aspirations and reach for the stars,
Aiming for them, not losing sight from the Earth, so far.


Ø Individuals who sail life’s journey on a strong ‘Self-Will’ ship,
Will see the hope to create a destiny and overcome the hardships.
Even when people can envision nothing beyond,
They will surely witness the sunrise at the horizon and see beyond.


Ø Those who do not have this great gift,
Should look within themselves and make that shift.
To finally take control of one’s life and experience -
Each day of life, living in a soul-satisfying ambience.


Ø The Power of Self-Will should not be under-estimated,
For it can change many lives that have been under-rated.
The doors to the ‘Universe of Abundance’ shall open eventually,
For those who believe in the Power of Self-Will virtually.


Ø So my dear friend, believe in yourself and the Power of your Self-Will,
As this belief will fuel energy, into your body and soul, that are currently still.
You can then achieve all that it takes to live a life of abundance,
Realizing the ultimate purpose of this birth at life’s each instance.

Faith

Dear all,
I had written this poem very long back in 1997-98 and wish to share it will you all.
This poem talks about the unimaginable strength of a strong belief alias 'Faith' in the ability to make things happen. Read on.....


ð Faith is a guiding stick
Seeing you through thin and thick.
Faith is a strong belief,
Which sets in you a sigh of relief.


ð Faith is ever-lasting and strong,
Whose healing effect you seem to throng.
Faith is abounding and unending,
Leaving no restless hearts pending.


ð Strong faith never lets you down,
Drowning all ghostly hurdles in your soul-town,
Proving them all to be hollow,
That finally they seem to fade and get mellow


ð Faith is deeper than the depth of great oceans,
Faith is omnipotent in unleashing your best emotions.
Faith is larger than the magnanimity of our galaxy,
Faith lies at the bottom of your heart in sheer ecstasy.


ð Faith tests your innermost wits,
And during those trying times you seem to knit -
Doubts and wild thoughts of desperation,
Rupturing all your dreams and aspirations.


ð Life’s picture, at once, appears distorted,
While the joy within you is evacuated.
That’s the time you should pick up your cheerful hat,
And throw your exasperated mind under a doormat.


ð Only then will you see the awesome dawn of tomorrow,
Or gush at viewing the fleeting maiden of Sorrow,
Paving the way for the victorious Lady Glory,
Singing to the flowers her wonderful story.


ð Of fame, fortune, thirst and hunger,
Of sunshine, mist, rain and thunder.
The reason why the Lady survived -
Was your undoubting faith in her on which she thrived.

The Language of the Heart..

Hi all,
here is a poem that is straight out of my heart to tell the tale of the 'Language of the human spirit' and to tell the tale of those who live their lives speaking the language of their hearts....


>> The language of our Hearts,
Speaks the language of truth from the start.
As communication flows from within,
Creating a world of sincerity, free of sin.

>>A world of Honesty and Genuineness is in motion,
Resulting in a simplistic understanding of emotions.
Our heart has knowledge of our deepest desires,
That throw open numerous options to be hired.


>> He who listens to his mind and not his heart,
Wanders through a maze of senseless marts,
Shopping from one option to another,
Failing time and again, progressing no further.


>> The sagacious and sapient mind of a great soul,
Will be astute in eradicating any thought foul.
That deviates the soul in disengaging activities,
That are not directed towards it's satisfying festivity.


>> Lessons learnt time immemorial are insufficient,
To guide the experimentative mind that is deficient,
Till that day when the mind and heart unite,
The union within the soul, undoubtedly, emerging as a story to cite.

>> The consummation of the mind and heart,
Must be fueled by tremendous passion to accomplish, at heart.
Tireless efforts as that of an ever-erupting volcano,
Would add a sense of determination to this union meaningfully so.


>> Thus with the merging of the heart and the mind absolutely,
The Goddess of Destiny adds unexpected pages to the person's life history.
The person then lives a life of 'Nirvana' on earth,
While enduring pleasurable moments that are complete with mirth.


>> So my dear friend, listen to your heart and follow your dreams,
And let life's beautiful currents flow down as gentle streams.
For the language of the Heart leads to an 'Evolved / Involved' life -
An unforgettble life, touching millions', giving a purpose to your strife.
