Spontaneous Combustion
My heart has caught fire
from all this desire.
The heat that I feel is so real.
The passion inside me
is burning intensely.
It's something I cannot control.
Will it consume me?
Can I become free?
Will I be able to heal?
What is this attraction
causing such a reaction?
Explosions are making me reel.
It must be spontaneous combustion
like a volcano in eruption.
For that's how you make me feel.

Just A Piece
“I write what comes to mind.
It is like sharing a piece of yourself.
I guess I am just a lover of words”
We call it spontaneity, something that
Comes from an impulse
Effortlessly,
There is nothing premeditated,
Like a burst of applause
Indigenous, something that grows
Without any cultivation like some ferns
And lichens or moss on the rocks
Of our watered paths
That which nature gives
Freely and unconstrained
Like sunshine like rain
In fact, this spontaneity
Is the highest and best form of
efficiency
it is Not forethought
it is As instinctive as breathing
As involuntary as
Suspense and surprise
Combined less the promptitude
An ad-lib,
is that what you are,
My friend, and automatic hi
And automatic hello?
A spontaneous combustion,
A spontaneous propulsion?
Like the three Princes of Serendip
Whose discoveries are made
By accident and sagacity and not
By an old quest, or conquest
Yes, I agree, the poems work that way.

We Can Do Magic
Let's make it happen
Spontaneous reaction
Cosmic combustion
Some call it plainly
Magic
If we put our hearts and
Minds together
It could surely happen
To not make the most of
This moment
Could be considered sort of
Tragic
Therefore
We must cover each other with
Words of Love
As a delicate fabric
It's up to the both
Of us
So let's agree
To hold each other captive

Rush has never been a spontaneous group. We may be spontaneous in our writing, we may be spontaneous as individuals in our day to day lives... certainly I think am and always have been, but I think when it comes to Rush and our presentation of our music it's quite controlled.

What Defines Success
What is the journey to success?
Success is not gained by defeat
Success does not occur over night
Success can emerge at any age
Success is working to full potential
Success is courage
Success is lending a hand
Success is not listening to negativity
Success is being positive
Success is living your life instead of the life of others
Success is being proud
Success is overcoming obstacles
Success is striving
Success is listening to your heart
Most of all success is accepting
What you have accomplished

Key of Success
The heart of education,
lies within the path of determination.
The sign of progress,
leads to the adress of success.
'Victory' should be your aim
and because of that,
success should be part of your claim
Never be discouraged by those who have failed,
because it is an impact to get you wailed.
Trust in yourself and in God,
and believe it or not,
you will not be left ignored.
Success lies not in the result but in the effort,
Being the Best is not at all important, Doing the Best is all that matters.
Store these words in your heart,
one day you will surely need each one to play your part.
For this is The Key Of Success
Joy of a Lifetime
The joy of a lifetime
Is the success one makes of life.
Success is the result of handwork and luck.
Three stages there are in life.
Comes first the prime of life,
When on bubble with life and enthusiasm.
And boils with youthful exuberance..
Next comes mid age, age for reasoning,
When one through life is half spent.
Last comes old age, age of experience,
When one is close to the grave.
Success can be attained at anytime.
But nothing can equal he prime of life,
When one still has so many years ahead.
And when at this time success smiles on you,
Then to the Almighty be the glory,
The gratitude and appreciation,
For a life well spent and full of success.

Take it as a sport.
Happiness must be for success
Not the success is in happiness.
You get it when you play a game,
Where you take the result light.
Indulge in such ventures
As you can take as sports.

No end to success
Success is not the triumph over regress,
Success is the power to suppress.
Success is not the money or the fame,
Success is, knowing you are still the same.
Success is not the power or the pride.
Success is the knowing how to hide.
Success is not a gift or gain,
Success is accepting and believing in your name.
Success is not a point or goal to seek,
Success is, believing you have never reached the peak.
Success is

What is Success?
Success is not merely becoming wealthy.
Success is not only working for remaining healthy.
Success is not going after fame and name.
Success is not living life for such mind game.
Success is not just taking career to the top.
Success is not staying in a bungalow at the hill top.
Success is working hard for your dreams you believe.
Success is perseverance and efforts till you achieve your deal.
Success is having consideration for everyone.
Success is a strong desire and to live to help each one.
Success is to follow the religion of humanity.
Success is to always remember all pervading divinity.
Success is to follow the principle, “Live and let others live.”
Success is to accept others as diversity of nature; beautiful and alive.
Success is working for happiness of the world, a dedication.
Success is to love everyone unconditionally without any expectation.
