A full attention

How much a person can be persuaded to fall in line?
To what extent he can be made comfortable and feel fine?
This is debatable point and must be paid full attention
It is very much crucial and deserves circulation and full mention

At certain level, weak human mind surrenders to circumstances
He is forced end the life out of despair at once
Such stage can be warded off with some positive infusion
It can save the situation arising out of confusion

Solace and advice form two formidable pillars for strength
The individual can be persuaded to act on same wave length
The time help and proper guidance can bring him new hope
Otherwise life is considered stiff challenge as if to walk on rope

Hope and despair can drive a person to nut
There may be many ifs and buts
Still doors are not closed for future recovery
Timely help and consolation is not new discovery

When person is seized of certain problems
No amount of persuasion may work for them
It is taken and considered as futile attempt
It may leave him helpless with no option left

It is not that he is not aware of the escape routes
Only problem is he is unable to reach the end or roots
This leaves him in the helpless state with no answer
No one may stand by him and extend possible help ever

It is human psychology not to board a sinking ship
It is also customary to choose set path as followed by sheep
No may try for new route to explore the possibility
There is hardly any doubt for his ability

Two sweet words can perform miracle
It helps to change the reverse cycle
It gives person a respite and chance to think
One a risk is over then ship may be salvaged and not sink

It can be guided back to calling port
The individual too can recover with active support
Once anchored at free berth the service can be rendered
The person too can be restored to confidence when offered

It helps to build and recover the lost ground
Ups and down can be in any field and found
One may face reversals or setbacks despite being cautious
The risk involved in it is not temper ray but always continuous

It is individual’s best efforts and reliance
It may help him to come out even if at odd or variance
The most important part is application of mind and compliance
The immediate sense of acknowledging the reversal and not defiance

Bring down adversary

It is terrible to feel in rage when deliberately insulted
It is humiliation if things are done without being consulted
It is some sort of tactics to bring down the adversary
This is most dreaded weapon and thought of very necessary

It is creating negative impact in the mind of an individual
It serves no purpose and it is not considered as casual
Move and counter moves are contemplated to match
Complete go by is given to cover the lost ground and catch

We have inherited some one of the fine weaknesses
The immense loss caused to is beyond imagination to assess
It is further aggravating situation and personal relation
It is ample proof of deterioration with clear indication

We are not capable of becoming even good neighbors
All sort of ill feelings and negative thoughts to harbor
It drives us to extreme corner with no possible come back
Even though it might have involved no interest or stake

We have certainly downgraded out selves with low ebb
We will not wait for second to murder a person or stab
It is dangerous tendency to risk human values
Even animals are aware of the things which are due

We can not blame everything on human behavior
A single thought has to be taken into consideration even prior
It is of no use to lament later when everything has gone out of hand
Life has become valueless and less dependable with current trend

We are being gifted with third sense
It must forbad us for committing the nonsense
It is possible we may be misguided on certain occasions
We can not solely blame entire thing human confusion

We have found the escape route
We are not prepared to wed out the root
It has become common thrust to reach at the peak
It is taken as personal goal despite being very weak

There is less likelihood of reaching out any solution
There is fall of standard at every level with pollution
Not only mind is bogged down with corrupt thoughts
But whole concept of being liberal and tolerant is needlessly fought

We can take refuge under false pretext as prisoner of conscience
We lost the confidence and trust as wheels of reliance
Until that is restored to with confidence and trusted upon
The noble crusade against such prophecy will never be won

It is like everything is said but not done
Advice sought for but not heeded and gone
It has become customary to remain unconcerned
Act only when interest is at stake and personally cornered

In knee deep trouble

I am in knee deep trouble and sinking
I have lost the courage and not capable of thinking
Nothing has gone right from the beginning
It has left me wondering and grinning

Man is destined to be guided by destiny
No matter how much he tries desperately
He may get only whatever is due to him
He may be get the chance even if not in the team

He may be fortunate enough even if chances are thin
The defeat may be converted into win
He may be called successful man
Even if not helped by any one

One should not only dream but try also
The success is like touch and go
If you miss it bare thread or by chance
It will never be had by you even at once

I meet with failure at all attempts
Though I am prevented or urged to preempt
It forces me to stop at once to start
It is odd situation for me to go with the speed of the cart

It is said you should strike the iron when it is hot
You should not try to sail when wind is not
As it is supposed to land you safely at the shore
You must wait for chance or sleep with the heavy snore

Some of the aspects can be easily understood by person
One should sense the trouble and try to find out the reason
If it is that difficult to come to the conclusion
It should be left alone rather than to be faced with the confusion

Life is afford to you with precious moments
There ahs to be some gainful movements
Time and tide will not be favorable too often
You must try to grab it with least possibility even

Someone has to smile and some has to go down
There may be no change in situation even if you frown
Everybody may not be that lucky to have it all
Some are gifted with luck and some are destined to fall

I am compelled to regret even though knowing fully well
Life must be lived at full length even proving hell
It may not be the same for each and every person
They are blessed with and enjoying it with solid reasons

Though I am not person of strong will power
But not too weak to face it like fewer
I strongly believe in making sincere efforts
I leave it to almighty if He does not want my ship to land at ports

Prose: God is the Highest Good

Good is the extension of God as His Spirit of manifestation in the phenomenal world. That which constitutes our highest good is ultimately to do with living in tune with His Spirit and Word as revealed in either one of the great religions of the world or by being in harmony with someone who is the very embodiment of the Spirit of God. Once such a person is fortunately found our life takes a turn for the better then. And by following his advice we partake of His grace and love which leads us on in the journey back to our True Home which is none other than the Reality of Eternal Life. That person helps us to realise we are not the body which we are identified with but a free Spirit Soul.
By re-identifying ourselves with our True Nature we come to recognize that we are indeed made in the image and likeness of God our Divine Father. That which is not restricted to any construct of the human mind and is beyond imagination is Divine. This is sometimes revealed to a select few in the form of a revelation or philosophy from time to time and is what history calls religion and is uplifting and blissful. The human mind and intellect cannot comprehend or fathom that which is beyond it but only staggers at the attempt, bewildering as it is to the ego which is the seat of the mind and limited individual personality. Only by the sustained gradual removal of the ego and its eventual death can the limited individual being or soul re-establish its unity or oneness with the Infinite Being, God, forevermore enjoying that Divine State of bliss.

Positive Thinker

Am I a good thinker?
Can I see what others don't?
Am I a daring person?
Can I do what others do not like to do?
Or others are afraid to do?

Am I a creative and imaginative person?
Can I see the invisible?
Can I feel the intangible?
Can I achieve the impossible?

Am I a contemplating person?
Am I a self-reflective person?
Am I a confidence person?
Am I a self-reliance person?

Can I be a perfect person?
Can I be a clever person?
Can I be a smart thinker person?

Above all,
I prefer to be
A simple person
With a positive attitude,
Not only accept positive things,
But willing to accept negative things.

Difficult to contain

It is hard to maintain
And very difficult to contain
All efforts sometimes go in drain
Beauty may lie there if you express no pain

Promises are to be broken
If they are merely a gesture and stay as token
It has no value if have the customary nature
How can one be so much confident and sure?

The psychology is to be understood clearly
How that may be takes as very dearly?
When times comes at crucial juncture
How it shakes foundation as well as the structure

Person may retaliate and act in self defense
If things go wrong or create any nonsense
It is compulsion of human nature to act
Let people think otherwise and react

I would love and prefer to be alone
It may not deter my path even in cyclone
Promises do not mean to be of nonsense value
Enough thought must be give along with honor and dues

It never bothered me as an individual
I have aligned to the role not supposed to be dual
I would work toward strengthening the confidence
What is more important in life is its presence

Nice words might have been spoken at the start
Those may be taken as mere words and product of an art
Its real test may come sometimes later
When loved person may turn out to be hater

Need to be told

If you need to be told
Then don't try to be bold
You will be like any other person
May come in life and go as seasons

Person should be able to take his own decisions
That should not vary and must be with precision
It trusts self first then thinks of others actions
There is no fun in offering any kind of reactions

You are your own judge and come to the conclusion
Every word is spoken with care and without any confusion
There is no withdrawal as it has been carefully considered
At no stage there is second thought and differed

This is how the stubbornness comes in life at later stage
It is with experience and coming up of the age
You are shedding off the uncertainty and come out of the cage
The confidence is reflected as new words are printed on page

Let actions speak louder than words
You may find it easy to look and go forward
You may have full satisfaction of what you contemplated
Every action is thought of and fully related

An individual has to be master of his own destiny
This fact might not been realized by many
There is hidden message behind it with some purpose
One must always keep mind free without keeping any grudge

In my own cage

I am prisoner in my own cage
I have no courage to write down on page
It may amount to disgrace
I shall have no courage to face

I am not sure about other people
They may be clever and able
I am still feeling shy of admitting
I can have no moral courage of committing

It may be known drawback
Still it is felt by and spoken at the back
It consciously bites and hurts
When we receive short reply and very curt

How can I look out side world for help?
When I am totally helpless and unable to sleep
It engulfs me with torturous feeling
I am afraid and still unwilling

I may gather the strength to come out sincerely
Such a stage had never occurred to me and faced rarely
I am still confident that I may do it fairly
I see dark clouds at distance very clearly

Let me gear up for any eventuality
I think that will reflect well on my ability
Nothing should be considered sent by heavenly or Godly
I shall gain confidence and face it boldly

Let me brace up for future challenge
Have enough guts to face and manage
I think self defeat is grave sign
One must pick up boldly and resign

It does not require good use of words
One must think positive and look forward
I think I am lacking that punch and drive
That is why I fear the sea to make deep dive

It is pity and self built fear
Why person should feel guilty with tears?
It has nothing to do with individual’s nature
One must analyze self and try to secure

I am person of little defeatist tendency
I know it is not good but suffer its frequency
It is obstacle in progress and real hindrance
One must think over it and give more importance

I must try to lend my ears and listen to what others might say
I should not keep aloof and prefer isolation to remain away
It is one of the saddest things if one confines to dark
It is bad sign and not considered as good art

I shall mix with natural surrounding
Visit in open air and start to correspond
As I am natural lover and very fond
There will be natural appeal from colorful fishes of pond

If they can live peacefully and with freedom within
I am human being with lots of areas to swim
Free in take of air and vast areas to roam
Let me change myself completely along with flower’s boom

Who are you

Who are you? Who are you really?
I probed it number of times but failed wholly
Answer was to be found from sun conscious
It has puzzled me more often and continuous

I tried on all known ills and put self in that position
First of all I asked whether it was difficult question
If so then how to find satisfactory answer
Only close or some distant friends but they may fewer

Very fine morning I was encountered by a poser on line
“Who do you think you are a cheater” the issue is sidelined
There is nothing in your behavior to suggest
I am here to prove you wrong and contest

In fact I wanted to test the reaction from a unknown person
As no one would like to point out short comings with reasons
I had loved expressing self in putting the same character
To express and feel with bad qualities is like a good actor

To feel jealousy is something like getting intolerant for somebody’s success
In no way you are going to be benefited if some one really feels happiness on face
It is weakness that is experienced almost all at one way or other way round
Even though it is immediately not made known but it is understood and found

I have heard the speeches of great saints and religion preachers
They profess the human life as useless and treacherous
It is full of all flaws and individual should rectify the way of living
It may continue for some more but will not help in unfortunate happenings

Such things prove very heavy for probing mind
Suitable answers will never be striking for easy solutions to find
After all it is human mind and needs some psychological comfort
The human journey is like ship anchoring safely at the port

Very few people may be confiding in you as trusted friend
Everybody is fully aware of tendency that may prevail at the end
Even though they might have been trapped under such deception
The over night change in any person can not be assumed from the inception

It is not wrong to assume that we all function after wearing the mask
We are not the same as we are supposed to be right from the start
The moment it comes to threatening the very existence
We go all out to defend self under any manner we feel fit at once

Second Chance

Sometimes we do something without thinking and it turns out bad
One mistake can rude your life
Unless you get
Second chance
To see the person you love in same class with you again
You feel it’s your time to make it right
It never too late to do it
You get that feeling you felt before and it all coming back
You can’t talk to that person again and stop looking at that person
You feel all butterfly coming back too
You feel nervous and feel that person is right for you
Second chance
To show that you still care for that person and want to be with that person
If she or he still have feelings for you, you hope and pray it work out
You finally got that person you want and if that
Second chance
Doesn’t work out then it never meant to be after all
You have to move on
Second Chance

Lost and forgotten

Why are we so helpless and fear death?
It scares me even with idea of laying wreath?
What sort of sad scene to send tears down!
Person may be altogether lost and forgotten

God decided to introduce it as final resort
He did not think of any steps for person to deport
It was left to be decided by individual concern
Everybody was expected to come back or return

If it was left to person’s choice
Then he would never have preferred death or demise
He should have gone for all the remedies
Even would have created wall of children and ladies

God feared some thing of this nature may come up
The human being will not yield to any set up
Death could create permanent fear in the mind
So this was the easiest way of deterrence to find

Some day he may develop the sense of going closer
Pray for reprieve, donate generously and not act as miser
The wealth may create the sense of insecurity and force to seek
The blessings from the God before he may start falling sick

Not all the wealthy, influential or powerful men fear death
There is no discrimination mentioned in any of the faith
Names are given with different indication but meaning same
They will be shocked to find it when finally come

Those who surrender and wish to lead happy life
May matter less to them if caused by nature, sickness or edge of knife
This is only cycle that has been made for all
Even Prophets, Messiahs and even lord had to respond to the call

This is formidable weapon and most dangerous
It sways, stays and plays havoc continuous
No one can dare to take extreme steps in anticipation
Either it has full commitment or enough participation

Think for a moment the unruly scene in the absence of death
No one will be afraid of any consequences including wrath
The human will kill human and keep under domination
As he will have no fear of answering any question

The death of near one makes him to wonder little
For a moment he will be shocked and feel unsettled
This will make him feel the futility of life as such
He may get wind out of it and involve not much

The person can be purified with little admission
Guilty feeling may push him toward confusion
If can surrender or feel so towards the end
There may be enough of scope to feel sad and mend

Simply known

Person is not simply known as bold
He may have considerable influence to hold
Nothing may stop him from dashing against wall
Respond positively to any crisis or earnest call

Young age is ripe to cultivate such habits
We have seen the clear win even for rabbits
What has really helped to prove as bold and courageous?
Will power to do or perform and maintain it as continuous

We may remain overconfident sometimes
That may lead to sudden fall with down face
It may cause injury and sometimes grave one
This must be kept in mind and borne

Person may feel puzzled after performing feat
He may loose nerves and sometimes sweat
It is not done in haste but with some calculation
Courage and boldness has got in built relation

It comes with the nature and linked with circumstances
Person may retaliate if ridden with worry and looks tense
This has nothing to do with boldness
But it performed with sheer coldness

Every individual is gifted with this quality
It will not be influenced by his ability
It will be performed when nothing is left with as option
He may then precede it without any interruption

A bad dream

I hastily stepped out from bed to ponder over
It was bad dream and I started to find cover
It made me restless and compelled to wonder
I rubbed the eyes and regained composure however

It happens many times when you are seized with work
So many times you may trying to avoid or shirt
It does not relieve you from burden and chain of thoughts invade
The memory is fast recycling and not easily fades

It is human mind that works as super computer
It adjusts very fast and compels the situation to alter
It argues in favor and against in protective manner
It keeps hope alive and does not make chance thinner

Dreams are in fact a safe refuge or heaven
We are the king and also beautiful queen
The whole set up revolves around and make us proud
Your voice is heard clear and loud

It is replica of sound and healthy mind
We have enough space to find
We can have level field to play
It keeps you linked and do not push away

It is said that when person is gripped by fear
He may not be in position to think or shed tears
He will have no place to put his views
The dreams may provide him enough time to review

It is by product of active human psychology
Mind does not rest even if raised in bogey
It strikes back to find the reasonable solution
It will not rest until finds out with strong resolution

I think over endlessly over the state of mind
It some times cry and try to act very kind
If something wrong is done unintentionally
It will try to satisfy logic by reasons finally

It is right application at right moment
It does not disturb the normal movement
The ups and down may force to think
But the stable mind may not allow to sink

The unstable mind sometimes pushed person to brink
He may loose the power to balance and properly to think
It is progressive thoughts that come to the rescue
This is considered as positive step and may be had by only few

So the dreams are healthy sign of mental order
It takes active part and always ready at border
The slight palpitation may push it to strong action
It will be sound and positive reaction

It is always good to sleep without any tension
The mind may be occupied with lots of questions
Still it is wroth try to be worry free
It is nice idea for all of us to agree

An element of surprise

There is element of surprise
Even it is in sudden demise
Why does the sun always rise?
It can stay at home otherwise

So many things do happen or take place
They may prove disastrous even if you are not in race
You will have to deal it as fresh case
Not to loose the hope in any case

Is it not wonderful to be in this world?
All memories to be preserved and kept in fold
Why to worry about changing seasons?
It is varying from person to, person'

World may not end with our thinking
Thoughts may not stop with your sinking
You may drawn in sea or jump from sky
It will never end the question why

Try to be reasonable with simple fact
There is no use to offer resistance or to react
It may be your fate and must be accepted
Lines must be drawn choice must be opted

Future destiny makes you strong or weak
You should face the challenge and guidance to seek
You must stand alone in the lonely island
Must make it hospitable with many more friends

It may not bally your expectations
You may emerge powerful without any citation
It is your destiny and you must give shape
You should remain vigilant and never be trapped

Everything has its own time and future
It may rise and end with specific tenure
What are we thinking about future trend?
Try to adjust and make some mends

Have you ever ventured in hot sun?
Have you ever tried for shelter and run?
If not, then leave it for future option
Answer should not found before arrival of question

We get perturbed over slight setback
We don’t address it but make role back
Why do we think it as permanent tragedy?
Can we not laugh it out and make it as comedy?

Nothing comes out of despair or hope
Sometimes you may have to walk on tight rope
God has given us strength to change the direction
Go with firm determination and resolute action

Time may come when you will not look back
People will follow you for guidance and ask
It will be your finest hour to rejoice
You may be able to utter with strong voice

Wait for the day and time till it knocks your door
You must simply acknowledge and don’t try for
It has to come one day and make you smile
You may face the positive world when walk for while

May die of hunger

An individual may die of hunger
If tied and kept at home in hanger
If he is set free and allowed to venture
He will have enough of fortune and golden future

It is well knit argument and said with motives
Its result is heartening and very much subjective
A person gains knowledge if comes across exposure
That makes him to be aware of latest developments for sure

If person remains indoor and makes no outside contact
His knowledge will become zero and unusable in fact
He will know nothing about what is happening outside
And as a result he will have no option but to confine

It is nice to meet the new people and have acquaintance
You may have enough of knowledge how to escape at once
Some of the opportunities need to be grabbed as they come by chance
You must be exploring it all the time hence

Man is not made perfect out of reading
For that he must have ability to lead
He must not only be successfully trading
But have enough of information on hand and feeding

This builds up network for future empire
People may look towards him and admire
For his sheer ability and as able administrator
The successful person for carrier and creator

Mirroring the shades of me

I look into the mirror and
Seeing not only a reflection of myself,
This world or the world daring me to enter
But the person I use to be
The one I'm afraid to be again
The person who would tear your heart apart
And not care
The person that didn't take her education seriously
The type of person that wanted to do
What she wanted to do

I see the person I am
Someone who helps you
No matter what
Even if I'm the one getting kicked
The senior in high school getting ready for graduation
Hovering over the next level of my life
But trying to find a way up out of the middle of the ocean
Everyone calls life in an education box
This is where I will discover
The mouse and tiger inside of me
Don't want to think of separating
Of being alone
And on my own

It's faded but there as I glance into the mirror
I see the person I will be
A person who helps other people
Discover that people with disabilities
Are not so different
I have found my way up the education latter
Helping people
Showing them there is someone that cares
And believes that they can do
Whatever they set their mind too

As if my mind was coming back to me
Out of a dream
My eyes cleared
As I realized I was just
Standing in front of a mirror
Thinking of that red cap and gown again

A need to come out

One should always try to come out of frustration?
Three should not be any attempt to create such situation
It must need proper support and evaluation
You must try escape route for the solution

When one is seized with helpless situation
He may make and break the equations
There will not be any thing going on in mind
He may be on move for the way out of any kind

The individual may n0t be able to keep head high
He will be immensely deep with problems and can not sigh
It is urgent need to address and feel comfortable
Nothing should remain worrisome on his table

Though the sky represented emptiness
It had still the quality of vastness
The thoughts can wonder from one end to another
It may shift from one option to other

There is sudden spurt in movement with invasion of dark clouds
it looks as if there is exchange of swords with lot of thunder sounds
some thing will be shed from fierce fight much to the enlightenment of earth
the rain drops may shower on the earth and it may be considered worth

I was not at all at fault and brought disrepute
was it wrong on my part to deny or refute?
Why am I being condemned for no fault of mine?
Will it serve any purpose for them to undermine?

I am regretting the decision of not following lines
It was going all fine when I resisted and declined
It didn’t find any favor but invited open wrath
They were after my blood and pushed me to death

I had done enough for all including family and friends
There was no let up in efforts to take it to logical end
They were still up in arms with hostile reception
I was blindly following them in their words from the inception

They deceived me and give enough rude shock
The time ticked forward but not warned by clock
It had endless movement and moved as usual
Such behavior is considered routine and casual

I had taken so much it to heart and felt badly
I had no other option but to accept sadly
I was not in position to buy or throw
They all proved to me as foes

I had nothing to feel ashamed of myself now
It had taught me to face it how
I didn’t deserve any reward but real sympathy
It did hurt my feelings and took me for pity

Complete turn

I made complete "U" turn
When feared that fingers may burn
There is enough time later on to learn
If life is spared then there are ways to earn

Not all the people get success
Even with enough of input and access
You got to be vigilant and cautious
The hunt should always be on and continuous

First of all you should know how to bargain
Even if that involves extra efforts with little pain
Enough of thrust should be carved out and made
Care must be taken and attention should be paid

Some of the people are quick to adopt the change
They know how to come out of it and manage
They will loose no concentration and retain composure
This will give them time to recover and make it sure

You can call me as one among them
I put my self exactly in the frame
There arises no doubt about my competence
I grab the opportunity if offered by chance

Let us not become victim of circumstances
You should have accurate mind with complete presence
If that needs some kind of deviation in the route
Mind should act fast to avail the chance and suit

Wealth and chances are matter of particular moment
There is distinct possibility and not always present
If one wants to be successful and famous
He should build confidence and trust

If beaten once doesn't mean always
Sun may appear again with bright rays
We are supposed to wait for opportune time
Lick may fail or help you sometimes

Gloomy Faces

Many gloomy faces are around
Generally ridden with worries but occasionally found
It forces us to think more about their perception
Where as it is definitely a real question

World ends for them with single failure
They have no clue or any solution for its cure
They may bear heavy load at heart and mind
Show to the people that they are serious but not blind

'I tried my level best to save the life but failed'
One of my close relatives confided in mail
Now I am alone in world and rudderless
How will I carry on endlessly and face?

Some of the incidences are purely accidental
They may sometimes prove costly and fatal
It is beyond reach or control of human being
They forecast misfortune and bring untold sufferings

Man can bear setbacks up to certain level
Beyond it they may not be able to withstand or tell
So entire burden rides on them and appears on the face
Behavior comes to sudden changes in such cases

Well, this can be taken as natural
Some people may express orally
Some people may cry loud and express grief
But that impression stays for only brief

As life is full of uncertainties and misfortunes
A person can't remain alive and alert to its tunes
Some of the set backs can dishearten a person
It may multiply or reduce the impact by many reasons

If person can pick little threads
And remain stand fast and continue to lad
Then it will be considered as big achievement
We should not be over come by such sad developments

What Can One Person Do

(n. rodgers/g. smith)
What can one person do
More than a little bit
More than a little bit
Can I fight the battle
All by myself
Can I make a miracle happen
As long as I can think
And got my health
Ill never stop
Im too strong for that
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
Everyones gotta move
What they can move
The faithful can sometimes move mountains
When your faith is right
You will never lose your heart, your hope
Or your good friends
Dont be overcome by frustrations
Live up to your highest expectations
Im tellin you just for your information
Just for, just for your information
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
Looked into my soul and suspected
That Im gonna take, gonna take on the unexpected
Walked into the fire unprotected
Walk into the fire
What can one person do
What can one person be
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
What can one person do
When its one like you
When its one like me
