While my interest in natural history has added very little to my sum of achievement, it has added immeasurably to my sum of enjoyment in life.

Fallen Twigs
Not one interest do I have,
To be caught up in the mix...
And added to the list,
Of unfortunate statistics.
Too many lessons I have learned,
From feeding those yearnings that burned...
To leave me mentally drained and physically sick,
Because of desires I had to be a part of it.
Not one interest do I have,
To be caught up in the mix...
And added to the list,
Of unfortunate statistics.
Too many I have seen that were demeaned,
After exhausting themselves for someone else...
To be left as fallen twigs.
To wither of potential that held promises to bloom.

We in Illinois are very fortunate to have a number of historic structures that have added immeasurably to the cultural life of the state, to the tourism industry of the state which by the way is our number one industry.

Disgust
You grew into a lie.
Dressed it up, added tie,
Hurt those who didn't do the same.
Yes, you did what you were told,
But nothing was too cold.
You added shames to your shame.

The greatest pain
History
Storage of down-
Trodden memory
Antiquity?
Weight
Added to life's
Forward push to
See
History
The greatest plane
Fly forever
Just depart
No looking back
But to reminisce
The progression
The window
Opportunity

The colour and the odour
Clouds of love came floating into my life;
They didn’t give rain nor ushered in storms.
Of course, they’ve added colour to my sky.
Games of love came entertaining my life;
They didn’t earn me a goal or a penalty.
Of course, they added odour to my court.

For unflagging interest and enjoyment, a household of children, if things go reasonably well, certainly all other forms of success and achievement lose their importance by comparison.

Nothing Is Lost
Nothing is lost,
Nothing is vanished..
But, the transformation
of energies occurs!
The body will be left
after death, the spirit,
must be added to air
to take new form......
As a candle burns
and decreases in size....
Our body too, burns
and burns, to be added
in another life,
after being fully burnt.

As years passed away I have formed the habit of looking back upon that former self as upon another person, the remembrance of whose emotions has been a solace in adversity and added zest to the enjoyment of prosperity.

In the midst of hopes and cares, of apprehensions and of disquietude, regard every day that dawns upon you as if it was to be your last then super-added hours, to the enjoyment of which you had not looked forward, will prove an acceptable boon.
Lies turned truth
Water added to milk is milk.
False news added to fact is fact.
Then it is amalgamated
To facts to remain as permanent.

I write a lot, and very often I write a couple of lines that are particularly revealing in some kind of way. And then as a few more lines get added and a piece gets added, eventually the song pretty much takes over and you can't really find a way to change those things.

Happy Birthday
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Birthday is a day worthy of celebration
Of another added deliberation
That goes with graces
In the world of greatness.
Let people come and jubilate
For is a time to accumulate
And lost the pass mystery
To build a great ministry
That would never be minted.
I hear voices saying happy birthday
Radio playing happy great day
Full of song that sang
With a raising hand of a holiday
And a worship ground of a holy psalm
Listen! Listen! ! My dear
And celebrate with maturity
For and added year is and added responsibility
Happy Birthday.

It may be added, to prevent misunderstanding, that when I speak of contemplated objects in this last phrase as objects of contemplation, the act of contemplation itself is of course an enjoyment.

Life today
We are polluted
Thoughts are diluted
Voice is muted
Environment not suited
Such is life today
We have been pushed away
Nature is far off and distant dream
We are acting as an individual and not team
We are divided in cast, creed and religion
Hatred is added and forgotten the region
We are limited to tiny land
Where only foes rule and not the friends
Atrocity, murders and rape is order of the day
Such has become routine and find’s its way
Life is uncertain and goal very much unclear
Death has become cheap life always feared
Life is changing very fast
Nothing has been built on trust
At every step you encounter deception
Possibly it is order of day with new perception
How many deadly diseases added their names?
No immunity or medicine is found or claimed
Counter to counter resistance is diminished
Life stands to be lost and get finished
Any thing can happen on the way
You want peace in life to stay
It can never be had or dreamed
No hope of ray is possible or beamed
Everything has become instant
But has increased the distance
The natural flavor is lost
But has doubled its cost
What do we want to enjoy?
Fast life with fear in the absence of joy
I wish to return to natural habitat
Hopefully will be able to change the habits
Let city change its mood?
Let them change entire pattern of food
But one thing will never be changed
The pollution and others may not be managed

Some Comments Assisted With Added Doodles
I have yet,
To go to the sink...
To turn on the faucet.
What you hear,
Is the tapping of my pen...
Beginning,
I hope...
To compose something of interest.
I've made some comments,
Assisted with added doodles...
If you'd like to see them?

Peace Messenger
Thousand of rulers have come and gone
thousand of conqueror have conquered the world
most of them have become the chapter of history
history has lost some of name
but the history remember those
who have done for the sake of mankind
amongst them one more name will be added
who shall always be remembered
for his solitude administration
to conquer the peace
the messenger of peace of the present world
His Highness name is
Mr.Barack Obama
the Hon'ble President of USA
who is above all race and religion
May God bless him and his family
with Love and Peace.

The Scars That U Leave
I don’t know how much more
How much more I can take
Of this crap you keep doing
Every night I go to bed
With the scars of the day
Scars that you inflicted
And the pain searing through my body
A pain that was caused by your hands
Inflicted by your hatred
A pain remembered the next morning
Only to be added to that night
A never ending pain
As the wounds are never left to heal
But are added to
Over and over again
Know I add a new pain
A pain I inflict on myself
A cut that you didn’t make
But was caused by you all the same
