A thought window
A thought and desire
Both needs to be admired
The can't be taken on hire
If so then house will be on fire
A thought may provoke retaliation
No answers for so many questions
So many plus and minus equations
No firm decision and only hesitation
One though leads to destruction
Doesn't wait for any instruction
Hasty and suicidal steps with little thought
Senseless killings in mind and war is fought
Thoughts and desire in positive direction
May lead to healthy and competitive action
Good for self and good for others
No tension and worry and not to bother
Desire is like evil breeding ground for mosquito
All type of greed is nurtured and allowed to grow
All sorts of game plans are ready for execution
Mind is right place and ideal institution
Doors open to kind gesture
Lovely indication for bright future
Path clearly ahead for salvation
Happy journey from one station to another station

The fire of desire
Keep alive
In you
The fire of desire
As it only
Brought you to this

But be on guard
To have good control

Desire is poverty. Desire is the greatest impurity of the mind. Desire is the motive force for action. Desire in the mind is the real impurity. Even a spark of desire is a very great evil.

A human mind
I t is like human mind
you got to know and find
be generous and very kind
observe it by not remaining blind
mind should be allowed to be broad
it will think and cut into road
it may shed the fears and think
it may feel free for the doubts to sink
There has to be single and positive thought
no unnecessary provocative thoughts to be fought
one has to determine course of action clearly
Else time may come to pay for it dearly
time and ground to be tested twice
they may look cool and nice
it may prove very deceptive
there is something more to be suggestive
Assess the ground and venture
there may lay a clear future
jump when you are fully sure
with no double mind to assure
no one may come and guide you
it has to be performed by only you
it is folly on our part to expect from others
try to swim to shore and win over

Sonnet -Bad Thoughts Lead To Sinful Actions
Our Life's a fight within oneself from birth;
A fight with forces, external also;
We have to go through this struggle on earth;
'Tis left to us to Heaven, well forgo.
Bad thought's the seed for any type of sin;
Good thought's the seed that makes one do good deeds;
A sinful thought, we must always well pin,
'fore poisonous trees grow from these evil seeds.
To control thoughts is well within our pow 'r;
Our actions most are quite voluntary;
The joy from sin is just momentary;
The devil is the sinner's main lover.
Nip off your evil thoughts whenev'r newborn;
If allowed then, your soul is surely torn.

Fly Away, Follow Desire
desire is hard to spell
it used to live in streetcars
and complicated the life of one who
finally
lost himself in the labyrinth of
too much thought
i spell it secretly
and i don't spill it like your
beans in Malta
it is hard to pronounce
to fulfill it you do not even have to utter it
it must live in the heart
it must grow in the body and keep itself ready on the groins
or the thighs or the lips
or the soles of your feet during the cold pour of the rain
by the side of your window
the possibilities are always myriad
welcome it
do not deny the rights of desire
it makes you write so well
it smooths the rough seas of your journey
makes you forget what is coming
to destroy you
forgive yourself, embrace desire
do not harm
be good, be gentle
keep on waiting for the right time
cut those boundaries
travel and if you have the wings ready in your mind
try
fly away

A pull close to chest
I pulled her close to my chest
I tried in earnestly to my best
It was real and crucial test
I had conveyed my desire at least
She asked help and guidance from her God
I failed to catch whether it was yes or nod
I could guess it was pure invitation
Simple “No” was now out of question
I revealed all about my past
She reacted angrily and very fast
I thought I was finished and did not last
At least I opened up and threw away the mask
Was it undoing of my best efforts?
Did I fail to maintain good rapport?
What did I expect from her to support?
Was my ship was landing at safe port?
I could read worry lines on her face
I did consider it as unique but mad race
She was not prepared or ready to lace
I was impatient to meet her and embrace
What did she offer me in return?
Did I expect any rough answer or “U” turn?
I was about go away and run
It had left me with sensational burn
I was burning with deep desire
I did all my best to admire
She was not the commodity on hire
But she was like volcano and live wire
Whenever I tried to go so close?
She made hostile reaction with pose
I failed to convey the trust and to repose
She almost smiled at me like rose
I think not to touch her in life time
She was not in my mind as object prime
She almost came as surprise in life
Now I was dreaming about making her wife
Love has failed many in their journey
They might have spent lots of money
The love which I was trying was very precious
I wished to remain with her almost continuous
She might have misjudged me and declined
I was desperate and mostly inclined
I still had to probe deep in her mind
There was yet no answer from her to find
I tested her will and desire
She was almost on fire
I was set to score on her
It was crucial test here and here
I will not mind if I swim or sink
I will watch her without any blink
I have given enough time to think
I must find good and durable link
She was there in my mind
I thought I must find
She must be at ease
I shall give her all peace

A difficult to die
It is not difficult to die
Then to ask for it and why?
We often drag the feet
When time comes to greet?
It is all destined
You are not at all detained
You are free to feel
Make your journey on wheel
All are new destinations?
Lot many hurdles and new questions
Still got to make it lovely and go ahead
It is beautiful to feel good and lead
No thought should emerge to end journey?
It is God gift and should not end for only money?
You got to feel good and struggle for survival
You may enjoy it later with its revival
The life is precious thing
It should not be lost for anything
It has got to do with something
There should be no useless thinking
It will be over at any moment
It won’t wait for anybody’s comment
You take it seriously and think positive
Work for family and friends and be more constructive

A nice jokes
How to make joke out of sadness?
Cruel joke can be termed as madness
To laugh it out is simply a sign of healthy mind
Such quality is to be rarely seen and find
To cute joke at somebody’s weakness is called foolishness
Nice jokes may try to remove somebody’s loneliness
It is nice to cut joke and make others happy
He will come out of shock and get ready
What is something new in fine jokes?
What response it gets or reaction invokes?
The known friends may take it very lightly
It may take off their worries slightly
See to it that it generates no ill feeling
It must help to build confidence if willing
It just a try in right direction
It will definitely prove as good action
Some people are good at hiding the pain
They will not show it as their gain
It is indication of humble person
They may not disclose it with simple reason
Your jokes should be of innocent nature
It must help to develop the future
It may remove the misgivings of long years
It may be heard nicely by friends in their ears
It is fine always to remain in jovial mood
It serves as medicine or good nutritious food
It helps to build healthy state of mind
It may make you to feel very kind
Treat it as fine quality and heavenly sent
Prove it with normal desire for improvement
It may draw flake with adverse comment
Still it will remain as memorable moment

Ivisible Battlefield
Invisible Battlefield
There's a war that rages daily With many a battle fought And it seems that no one really Understands the foe named 'thought'...
Pastor..
He seems so small and passive Sometimes he's good and kind But his evil can be massive As war wages in our mind..
Throughout Faith in Action
It's an invisible battlefield No allies at our side As the foe its power wields We cannot run and hide...
But we have a Great Captain in our Pastor And He alone can see Each battle and each out-come Defeat or victory..
Throughout Faith in Action
It's an invisiblebattlefield But we have God's true Word We have faith's invisibleshield We have the Spirit's sword..
Throughout Faith in Action..
The demons, darkness, evil forces Strive to take control But they cannot alter courses With the One who saves our soul..
Throughout Faith in Action..
It's an invisiblebattlefield No one to cheer with glee As evil thoughts and armiesyield To inner victories..
Throughout Faith in Action..
For many a tear-stained battle Upon these plains are fought With many a plea and many a prayer Prayed for this foe named 'thought'..
Throughout Faith in Action..
Someday beyond these borders This battle will bedone As God our foot-steps orders We'll fight them one by one
Trust our Pastor..
With Him, the foe we'll conquer He is a faithful shield For He is Lord and Master Of our invisiblebattlefield...

Love can not
Love can not be had on hire
You can not attempt it to acquire
It is not available for any price
As it is full of promises
Body needs some kind of extinguisher
To control the burning desire
Some one to be near by and admire
That it is not fire to be commented for satire
Love is pure desire
Everything will be on fire
If both meet in same place
Happy end for the race
Smile and happiness on face
No worry or ill will to trace
Forget if some thing goes wrong in case
Do not run after it or make chase

An Ever Open Door
Desire to live, love and dream
Desire to desire more
Desire is the flirtiest whim
It's an ever open door.
Desire to touch you once
Desire to break into a dance
Desire to hold your hand
Desire to build on sand!
It's an ever open door
You desire and desire more!

Thoughts of desire
Thoughts of desire
~
A burning passion rises
consumes the mind at will
thoughts become provocative
seducing the subconscious
ideas come into place
stirring, hard to shake
passions flame burns hot
with the secrets we keep
the desires we mask
continue to rise inside
a thought grows into a dream
how sweet the night
passes into morning
dare we ever live them
or should they remain
kept inside the mind
as thoughts of desire

A wild thoughts
Mind is wild garden
Thoughts emerge all of sudden
They boom in abundance
They too need immediate attendance
The space needs to be created
At some places they got to be appreciated
There may take pro and cons situation
Mind may remain busy for its evaluation
The concept stand vindicated
The eagerness is very much indicated
We want applauses and lot more praise
Not intelligent but wants place among wise
They may grow like wild flowers
They need no rain or showers
It has no relevance to its logic
They want to perform it as magic
It takes us no where
It has to stop somewhere
Nothing can take off from imaginary world
It will get bogged don and will have no hold
It is birth place for evil thoughts
No immediate solution is reasonably sought
The game plan is ready and battles are fought
You are likely to be failure and simply caught
A shunt is to be created as concrete wall
It may prevent other segments not to fall
Though there may be tug of war in mind
You maybe able to think twice and rewind
There has to supremacy and control over ideas
It may fail and will have no impact on good pleas
It has to generate positive impact on large scale
The thought should not sail as fish or whale

Strong desire
In one corner lies strong desire,
Struggle and efforts more to acquire,
Not necessary but still to require,
Much to the discomfort and ire,
Suppressed artificially but strongly emerging,
As if freed bird from forced caging,
Burning with emotions and anger raging,
Writing on wall but not on paging,
It’s inherent to have strong desire,
Not the capacity but still hire,
Adventure more in burning fire,
Never reneging so not called liar,
As a child desired to touch sky,
Never thought of consequences, why?
Birds with wings wonderfully fly
All unrealistic things in mind but felt very shy,
Raising position to that of tower,
Reaching peaks with lot of power,
Not enough capacity and means fewer,
Strong will power with positive answer,
No charm in life without desire,
Need not allow dreams on fire,
Double the effort with sharp vision,
Intent to succeed with strong liaison,
Dream and desire almost same,
Powerful drive required in game,
If succeed may earn you name,
Sitting idle may make you duck lame,
Striving hard to realize the dream,
Desire cools after receiving ice cream,
Desire to travel as powerful beam,
Desire, dream, ambition to work as team,
Nothing can stop from imposing will,
Followed it vigorously with intense kill,
Efforts pursued is also called zeal,
Achievement sure and may look real
When life time achievement comes true,
Success almost without any clue,
Made it possible with earnest drive,
Never allowed to die but made they live

Another great evil arising from this desire to be thought rich; or rather, from the desire not to be thought poor, is the destructive thing which has been honored by the name of ""speculation""; but which ought to be called Gambling.

The Eyes of Greed
We moved ahead, one thing on our mind,
Though I was sure we were unalike,
Although our goal remained the same,
I saw us as two, as seperate as can be,
A bright awakening, a glimpse of our desire,
Light danced around us, illuminating our path,
His eyes flashed violently, a sure sign of his intentions,
Ignorant, I progressed, supressing the doubt in my mind,
And there it was, so radiant, so pure,
It called out to us, tempting our desire,
The sound of longing, seduction, that of greed,
It yearned to be found, to be used, to consume,
A shadow crossed his face,
His veil was removed,
I looked into his eyes and saw it, my fears confirmed,
The selfish desire of greed,
It was then I realised what I had done, but too late,
As soon as it was over I wondered,
Was I any better? Did I deserve my fate?
Were we so different? So unalike?
Or was it unescapable? A trait among all people?
To not resist, but embrace our nature,
To be veiled, blind and ignorant, until it is too late,
When we are overcome by greed.
A dangerous fanatism
Where does the fanatics rule and hold the sway?
Why do they prefer to remain aloof and stay away?
Is their no ground or base to show them the way?
In near future we have no hopes for bright ray
They may be misguided by their mentors
They might be influenced wrongly by their tutors
It is difficult to believe and come to their terms
It is spreading all over as dangerous germs
It is playing havoc and innocents are killed in the streets
They spread the venom to people’s mind when they greet
Only few maybe misguided by their propaganda machinery
They may come to be known as merciless mercenaries
Their action can only be condemned in strongest possible words
It can’t find any support or place in this civilized world
The dark clouds are looming over the horizons
The world is divided in opinion and separated into zones
They can’t annihilate complete population
Their ideology may not succeed and is out of question
It can’t cut much ice and find good equation
It has nothing to do with present situation
They may hold ground for sometimes to come
They will never be accommodated any time with welcome
The popular will must prevail without any reservation
The horrendous path can’t lead to peace and salvation
The message is for to live peacefully and let others live
We can’t influence large people to make and believe
Any one who believes in His creation may feel some relief
That may also influence his living with good belief
They may term it senseless and imposition of forceful will
There is no thought of school in world that encourages you to kill
We are living in confused world and in dilemma still
The good thoughts are generated on large scale from wind mill
The old days have gone off and taken over by progressive thoughts
In olden days the wars were unnecessarily and waged and fought
What it has led us to believe and what good things it has brought?
We should not be trapped in controversies and simply caught
Peace can’t descend on earth on basis religious fanatism
It may lead to merciless killings and give birth to racism
World is already divided between white and blacks
We should do nothing to develop invisible cracks
We need to rule the world with clear conscience
Let every one pray and preserve its essence
We must observe and maintain its presence
There is complete acknowledgment with sense

Story Of Desire
forced by desire to write
one night I took a pen and paper under light
I dreamed, imagined and not what I did
Still could not make the pen and paper meet
I looked inside as well as outside
But failed to find a subject to describe
The wind blew and moon appeared
But they did not made my mind delight
I thought and thought and fought a lot
And slowly my will began to broke..
At the end, I forced my desire to die..
With a smile, of course of failure and shy! !
A no to death bell
No one wants to hear death bell
It doesn’t find favor or go well
Everyone has different stories to tell
No one can generate idea or easily sell
It creates fear in mind
All unnecessary thoughts get unwind
We are half dead before its arrival
There is anxiety and great upheaval
Well it has to come on appointed day
No is no escape route or way
No one has anything to offer or say
You need no worry or attention to pay
Your good work may come to rescue
It is fine with you and equally true
You are at relative comforts
It doesn’t bother you much or hurt
The end may be soon without any delay
The angels may be ready to take you away
There may be bright light in the sky
You will be heavenly abode without any shy
You have fulfilled your mission
There is nothing unusual things for admission
You have lived your life in elegant way
It was always nice to find very good day
You did whatever you could in your position
People try to project their work in exhibition
You stayed in humble way all along
No one could point out as wrong
It is expected from every person
You have to lead simple life without any reason
You change for good as per season
Words spoken need not bitter as poison
Lead the way in life as you like
Only good thought must strike
Try to be kind and generous
Spend the life like water in river and continuous

Flame of Desire
Desire is the fire that enlightens my mind.
Without it I falter and fall far behind.
It’s that bright spark which drives me to succeed
And directs me to all the things I will need.
Desire fills the gaps that my failures will leave;
So once more in myself I’ll want to believe.
Without desire my path is a precipitous way
With nothing to rescue me from downs of each day.
From the shadow of failure, success surely will shine
As from dry, rocky vineyards does blossom sweet wine.
Matter not the success, its birth is desire
Love of self and others is the spark that ignites this fire.
