An urge to know
Man by nature feels urge to know
To know is to be not content with but still grow
To seek things beyond their appearance
It is very hard to go for their acceptance
We should question their authenticity beyond
We may seek them or may be very fond
It is very vast pond with plenty of water
It can satisfy us and help the needs to cater
We have no slightest idea or their information
We seek easy access and quick transformation
We are by nature eager to know and very curious
Until it is clarified we may remain anxious
Man is dedicated and his nature is very broad
He may continuously think and carry the load
He has vague ideas about possession of powers
He may approach not all but fewer
Man is composed of what he has and what he lacks
He monitors all movements and tracks
He uses his intellectual gifts
He solves it all without any rift
He has some powers to tackle the issues
He may still need something for the dues
The most failure part is to know more
It urges person to try and explore
There lies insufficiency in man’s power or knowledge
It may have not power to cut any edge
Man may say “I don’t know” is insufficient one
He doesn’t posses the power as not with any one
God know everything and man can’t compare
This can’t help him and lead anywhere
Man needs to know that he is ignorant
This forms basic question and is very important
This factor is very important to analyze
It is his weakness and he must realize
How can he feel ache is important factor?
He can feel contended and emerge as victor
It is know fact that man by nature is curious
Any failure makes him nervous and furious
He is knowledgeable enough not to be vicious
He has all the powers to associate continuous
He awaits good response but unable to get
He has basic instinct to forgo and forget
He may compromise and allow things to pass or let
He has everything in mind tries hard to set
Time may tell about fortune or misfortune
He needs one chance or time very opportune
He must be able to assess properly and align with the tune
The success may touch his feet and smile the fortune
The man is considered to be wise animal
He can plan the thing upon its arrival
No body can impose any will on him
He has all the blessings from HIM

GOOD and BAD
There seems to be a discrepancy
about what is good or bad.
It depends upon who you are
and what it is you have had.
Good to some is the nature of things
and how it makes you feel.
Bad to some is how nature sings
because they want to steal
the beauty of it for their own vicious use.
And good to them is all their abuse
to things that grow and things that thrive
and so they apply their ruse.
The thievery of resources for greed and wealth,
The teaching of lies to ruin your health,
The addition of poisons in what you eat,
The killing of wildlife whose lives they cheat,
The excuses for nuclear energy
to power what we could have for free.
So good, bad what does it mean?
Not too much in our everyday scene.
Nature's been taken for granted today.
But always nature will have the last say.

Every human being living on planet earth possess some basic powers
The basic powers include powers to think, select, reason, decide,
Invent, produce, feel, create, construct, write and make choices
All the above powers have their positive and negative manifestations

Compassion and kindness, love and affection, charity and philanthropy
Reverence for life, altruism and self-sacrifice, optimism and buoyancy

The power of intuition is the ability to know without thinking
Answers and solutions come naturally to those who have these powers
Few human beings exhibit the astonishing powers of premonition
The power of premonition is the power of forewarning
This is the power to know that something has happened without been told
It is the power to know an event is about to occur before it actually does
Mystics categorize the powers of premonition as part of the sixth sense
As it is popularly said – to be forewarned is to be forearmed
Premonition is one of special powers human beings can possess
A number of individuals display the amazing powers of telepathy
Telepathy is the science of mind-to-mind communication
It is also the power to know what your neighbors are thinking about
Some folks refer to telepathy as a branch of clairvoyance
Few people say telepathy is part of E.S.P – extrasensory perception
Whatever may be your own definition of telepathy
It is an incredible power any human being can possess
All the above mentioned powers are not magical powers
The powers are available to all human beings to access
Please enjoy your life, good luck and happy destiny

All dreams not come true###(in 500)
All dreams may not come true
All credits due may not accrue
But with true reflection in mind
Ideas newer and newer may emerge and find
though may not be the nature too so kind
Dreaming in day time is not at all good
Good thoughts and efforts work as food
Earnest efforts to come out of wood
Failure may stun and you loose the hope
Still not difficult to walk on tight rope
It is not bad to dream for high sky
Speak always truth and do not lie
You may not have wings to fly
Still nothing wrong to work and try
No need to think or needlessly cry
You must have third sense to rise
All acts should be sensible and wise
Rise and fall is part of the game
Goal and ideas you must frame
No use trying luck or fate to blame
What ever you do must be with resolve?
Take full blame and never try to absolve
Put in best efforts to come out and solve
Full dedication and make everybody to involve
Try to mix with all as soluble dissolve
Despite put in best efforts it may not materialize
Failure may be sure but we may not visualize
All draw backs reasons before us but can’t analyze
Complete system may run into trouble and paralyze
Still strive very hard to see the reason and synchronize
Complete days routine and reflections of day’s thoughts
In night, thoughts clash and hard won battles are fought
Freedom and joy sincerely thought and brought
Stealing in day time but not easily caught
Simply night dreaming when lying in the cot
Continue to seek solution in dream,
Energy not focused but travel in beam
Try very hard and work as team,
Good efforts in direction but not as power game
Not letting any opportunity with excuses lame
So I find easy way to seek refuge in night
Lie low and have good say without light
more and more attention I try to pay
Always hope to find way in form of ray
washing shores with water at feet of bay.
Life doesn’t end with setting of day
Sun may rise again with bright ray
Your hopes may be high and tall
Vast horizon may lie open for all
Try for success without any fall
Come what may be the slogan
Life and opportunities may begun
Nothing to loose with worth attempt
Sometimes you may gain with action prompt

Wicked Animal
Man is basically wicked animal
No one can see his ideas even if naked
Either before computer or before sky
He will struggle with his mind and try
His brain is always matching with speed
So much eagerness with lots of greed
No stoppage over its planning and thoughts
Mind struggles and so many ways are sought
It will never satisfy his ego
Even if it requires to forgo
That is the mentality and real fact
It requires little restrain to act
It is good to have appetite for knowledge
It may then give enough time for leverage
With dedication and efforts it can give result
Only inner urge should be controlled and remain well built
The universe and nature has been unexplored
It is like digging of well in small hole of the bore
It may open earth's belt to give enough of water
That is all we want for need to cater

Nice to worry
It is always nice to worry
As life can not ended in hurry
It will have its own time to click
Whether you are alright or sick
Life is considered as mystery
Useless things to carry
Remain sad or make it merry
Problems may always be there to vary
We have no time to pray God
As we are burdened with the load
Why can’t we read between lines?
As world from other side is seen very fine
The worries may never go off
We have so much tension and enough
It is routine and can not lead us to be upset
We must tackle calmly and then forget
Sometimes you are seized with no worry
Then also you are worried and feel sorry
Life seems so hollow and unworthy
You feel dejected and seek sympathy]
It is human nature to dream for more
Always wants to win over others and score
Such unhealthy thoughts push you to the extreme
The shot sure battle is lost and making chance very grim
It will never end till your death
You may worry about how others will be laying wreath
It is none of your concern how people will react after
If you disclose such things then they will roar into laughter

Self Boost
I would boost of self and claim
I have everything with big name
I have everything to proclaim
As I am perfectly placed with aim
I could go anywhere in world
I have rich ideas to be sold
People take my advices for granted
They always believe me and wanted
I have everything I want
But certain thing I don’t
I neglected health for fortune
Rest everything went out of tune
I was to cherish some of the pride moments
But had to sacrifice and face adverse comments
Any body would notice the deterioration
Their point may have only one orientation
It is important to have worldly pleasure
But at the same time perfect health to make it sure
If you have everything but no body to enjoy
It will be useless to sit on mountain without any joy
The head may ache and not allow you to think
You may seek isolation and quietly sink
This is stage where you need complete comforts
But alas! You are no where near the port
You are on sea waters
You have power to sail and course to alter
But it is realized the futile race sought after
All luxurious like things now fail to cater
It slides me to the pain zone
Complete devastation as if after cyclone
Nothing seems is now within control
Despite all availability, it is natural fall

Breeze on Fingers
I got cold breeze on fingers
As I waved hand in full mood as singers
Complete calm and lull prevailed in atmosphere
I was in search of peace to come from somewhere
It is said” peace descend in the early morning”
As all divinity and blessings start from the evening
God too go for quiet retirement and think of universe
And think of the human beings to relieve from the curses
I believer strongly in some of the powers
Sometimes it compels me to seek some the answers
I think in isolation of great divinely feeling
Even though I am quite calm and no pressure is reeling
Yes, it is fact and no one can dispute
It may inject spirit and to all may suit
Whether they are singers, philosophers or loiters
It is just the same for those whoever wishes to enter
The birds sing in melodious tune
I definitely see some good fortune
Not in terms of material or money
It is time to laugh at or look funny
There is hidden energy to feel its first pulse
The cool wind may make touch and get repulsed
This will energies the pulses to become active
Harness in right direction without being called reactive
The sun is waiting to make its first appearance
All are in hurry to disappear at once
It is time to say good bye to old unsettled things
Prepare for final assault and to score for something
Each day to bring new hope with some results
New ideas come up in quick way and built
Each one with restrictions and certain limit
Decision is to be taken in a manner to be considered as fit
Soon the breeze will go away and sun may shine
I may look fresh and feel very fine
I may have nothing to do for it to look adventurous
But certainly it will be pursued as goal and continuous

Sorrowful ocean
Life is like vast ocean,
Full of sorrow and pain,
Joy less and worry main,
Not to loose hope and energy regain,
To Learn a lesson from each failure,
Content with less and nothing to procure,
Difficulties more but patience to endure,
No immediate result but success is sure,
If life was ever to be smooth,
Who would pray and take oath?
Eat more and carry the weight
Sound sleep and get up late
Life and death are two parts of wheel
failure of any one may makes us to feel
Life may move on and doesn’t come to an end
Pray for success and ways to mend
who understands life but never lament?
No regrets but passing the comment
trying very hard to overcome the shock
Time never stops as clicks the time in clock
Hardship may give you endurance and strength
Will power to withstand and go to any length
No loss of face but to feel at ease,
Success to knock and failure to cease

Unknown factor
Unknown factor keeps human being constantly in fear
They are seized with many problems and stressfully bear
Ready to strike with revenge but still address as dear
Experience pinch of salt when some sad news they hear
It is human psychology that drives and controls the nerve
In danger or crisis they take over and brilliantly serve
It is known fact that life is real but full of uncertainty
It will be sheer madness if we remain unknown about its futility
It gives joy and happiness as long as it is pleasant
No sorrow or grief is filled without His grace or consent
We tend to take little contingent of what the next will descend?
Unfortunate events or momentary drawbacks
Unforeseen situation may force us to turn to divine power
Prayers and offerings to God for blessings to shower
“Come to my fold and I shall “sound very much in ear
Force to rethink course of action when look back to years
Is it not the age old phenomenon that we have followed the same?
Is it not the brilliant idea of some one who has worked hard to frame?
The spirituous mystery that no one has tested or spoken so far
To take the advantage of human minds as so much weak they are
What will they do as last resort to come out of it and take refuge?
What can be simple remedy for acquiring new energy to infuse?
Why all of sudden it invades in mind that it may be end of world?
Why it shakes spine with fear, feet crumble and develop cold|?
No easy solution for complete dejection or burning inferno
Movement to stop with unexpected blockade of water flow
Reckless mind to stop thinking with no more ideas to grow
No where to go with hopeless situation and out of proportion to blow
These all factors drive them to the near vicinity of divinity
It is at this crucial juncture that they realize the power of infinity
It is borne in mind that life is another name of continuity
How much it is important to lead or to be lead in community
We need some overwhelming factor to guide our destiny
It makes us to rise in arms with powerful force for mutiny
Nothing on earth can force the intelligent approach of human being
It remain throughout same with ordinary man or powerful king
It may strengthen faith and belief
Which can only provide the relief?
It has nothing to do with fame or noun?
What else we need to calm down?

A sense of pride
One must feel contended
Even small things must be carefully attended
It gives sense of pride and honor
Even if things are in nature of major or minor
The self satisfaction is definitely a pleasure
Its depth and value can not be measured
It is to be taken as matter for no discussion
Everything is open and for self admission
Life is to be considered as not burning question
Though it holds the key for success and failures in relation
It is for us to go in for its correctness
To admit the lapses on part is really called greatness
We live in total uncertainty
There has to be clear demonstration of ability
You may demand respect only when you are successful
The chances are there to avail in abundance and plentiful
We should see the danger coming from any direction
If you are alert then it is good indication
It will save you from embarrassment
It will stave off the situation from critical moment
Although there not much to worry
Enough Care has to be taken for later not to feel sorry
Everybody will be careful and curious
It will be eagerly awaited making you very anxious
Not all will be lucky to have everything
There may be some shortage or lacking
One has to make bold move and strive very hard to attain
Still the anxiety and cause of worry may remain
It is openly admitted that life is full of struggle
There is no surety of life as it is called simple bubble
No one knows when it may be shortened or over
The life has to be struggled and lived however
When you are placed at the centre of the activity?
All eyes may be watching you for caliber and ability
Here comes time to enjoy the fruits of hard work
It may enlighten you to start new or embark
It is one’s own choice to choose the road
Till it is over it will be felt as difficult load
It may require tremendous efforts and zeal
The enjoyment may be very sweet and real
Any work done must be enjoyed with willingness
It should not be thrown away with tiredness
Once taken on hand then must be finished soon
You may have peace at mind like coolness of moon
It depends on human nature and behavior pattern
Not all may be enjoying in same way in turn
One must develop the quality to endure
Even small quantity can also make it sure

A Change Dream of All!
Education does not end schools and colleges;
It continues in life and work in the world ever!
Real education begins outside education portals,
When one comes out of educational institutions
To Nature, arts, sciences, literature and poetry!
It’s not enough to spend time in mundane things,
Day today activities which will produce monotony,
Frustration, depression and make world too much!
Each one should make use of special power within
To explore nature of things and explore truth and
Helplessness of man can be overcome by change!
A lot of drawbacks are there in everything here
Affecting society unaware without giving hope,
New thoughts, ideas and change for the better!
Innovation, novelties are needed to breathe fresh air;
Poets have important job to bring about change!
To change society individual’s attitude needs change.
Nature, arts and literature are there to give solace,
Comfort, ideas and hope to realize freedom in life!
Poetry inspires and encourages to attain freedom
And live a life of fulfilment to the full in the world!

The Power In My Hand
Let the bold get bolder
The weak, weaker
The poor, poorer
And the world bigger
But the powerful shall exceed the earth
And the powerful shall stretch his hands wide
Across the face of the earth
Then the powerful shall be more powerful
The power in my hand, I limit
The power to rebuild the earth
The power to speak to other powers
The power to fall in love
The power to seal volcanoes
To trouble storms
To do the undone
And undo the done
The power to gather knowledge
And solve world mysteries
To reach to the needy
And build better lives
But all these I have neglected
And all the miracles die with me
Can I sit any longer?
And more perish still?
For my sake
But that power could leave me
For someone else
For the misuse of such gifts
Immortality is not an issue
One must die
But shall I die unaccomplished?
With the seed of power
In my hands
Who shall attend my burial?
Apart from the unaccomplished
But my chance to use my power has come
Most people blame Eve
Others Adam
For misused power
Had they not heard they are misusing theirs?
Are they not ashamed?
For nature is fair
And ones chance is too
There is lots of power in my hands to harness
But there isn't lots of time to utilize
So how can I sit with you and watch…
…the power in my hands waste away

Seasons too change
Seasons too change
It is divine theory
Love end in faded memory
You get not what is desired
Whole life is in question and makes you tired
As season changes so the human
Life with animal to same like man and woman
Basic instinct to enjoy and desert
Known fact but got to accept and assert
As lots of worries and problems descend
Our anxieties grow more and demand
We make desperate bid and powerful drive
Try to lay hand on every thing and survive
We take birth alright
But die soon with all kinds of fight
We have come on this beautiful land
But can’t make it sure with lovely end
As desert booms with colorful flowers
The landscapes emerge with rainy showers
There is impressive show and nicely appealed
Lots of natural secrets to be positively revealed
Even though there is basic instinct to complain
Yet we can not keep aloof or silently remain
We watch it helplessly yet enjoy it full
As we know its futility and possibility of looking dull
Sometimes we feel sadness for unknown fear
Think of likely loss of life and shockingly bear
Everybody is duty bound to depart from lovely land
Why not then befriend with all and love the sand
We may loose our trail in time to come
Yet all changes must be welcomed
What is more important than having fear?
The strength to withstand and nothing more to hear
We are part and parcel of whole universe
One goes on or before time and another enters
Everything is set and known to all
There is rise for everything and imminent fall

Nothing In Common
You and I have nothing in common.
When I look to the sky,
I do not seek clouds.
And when it rains I feel nourished.
At least I accept a growth of some kind,
Is going on to encourage my mind...
To remain curious with an inquisitive need,
To adventure.
You associate your life with everything negative.
If I allowed you...
I'd be limping around feeling pains of empathy.
And you'd be there...
Delighting to see my back hunched over,
From a load of your constant unpacking of complaints.
My mind is not here for you to pluck.
All that time I've given to you has been used up.
You and I have nothing in common.
When I look to the sky,
I do not seek clouds.
And when it rains I feel nourished.
At least I accept a growth of some kind,
Is going on to encourage my mind...
To remain curious with an inquisitive need,
To adventure.
And you only come around to offer dead ends!

No One Cares
No one has tried to assess human nature
It is all the more important for our future
What are we going to give to our generation?
This is most likely to be burning question
History repeats important lesson
IT has some logic with the reason
Person can be tried for treason
But alas! What punishment for destruction
Nature was never destroyer
With love and peace messages as conveyor
What else does it seek and long?
Only with plain message that we owe and belong
We are part and parcel and can not escape
It is like crime on women of molestation and rape
We can’t curb the independent voice
It is holy commitment with promise
We can’t assume the role of destructor
This role is left to almighty as instructor
He may take the decision as what is to be done’
We can’t assume it as entity only one
We think of today and not for next day
This is considered as cheap and only way
Many countries may largely depend on natural wealth
But who bothers for the deterioration in health?
We are heading for natural disaster
It is approaching very near
We witness volcanoes emanating fire and smoke
This is warning and first of its stroke
Do not assume search operation
It has direct bearing and relation
More you preserve and are friendly
Less may be problems to feel it sadly
Let this be not governed by emotional flare ups
It is not like storm in tea cups
It is real warning of large consequences
We may have no option but to see from the fence
Deserts witness snowfall and peaks remain barren
This was not for a second but it is largely seen
There is complete change in environmental pattern
This is matter that adds to worry with concern

I'm Always Learning From Nature
For many years I have loved Nature but little about her I know
My knowledge of her is basic I know a finch from a crow
Recognize some birds by their songs know a wallaby from a roo
Know a wombat from an echidna and a rosella from a cockatoo
Just basic knowledge of Nature her secrets from us she hide
Nature who lives in Townparks and gardens and who reigns supreme in the countryside
I find her quite fascinating artists and writers she inspire
I can only sing her praises of which I never do tire
Nature is for everybody for to learn of and enjoy
And for decades of years I have loved her ever since I was a boy
Her secrets she has hidden from me so mysterious in her own way
I'm always learning from Nature learning from her every day
Yes I'm always learning from Nature and my wonder of her only grow
Yet from me her secrets she keeps hidden and little about her I know.

Nature's blessings Spring
Nature's blessings called Spring
Nature's blessings
Cherry trees in bloom
Cascades of colours
Floating into my room
Nature's blessings
Eruption of new life
Everywhere around
It's the eternal bound
Nature's blessings
Spring's awakening
Fills one with new hopes
Melting away sorrow slopes
Nature's blessings
Shy scarce sunbeams
Sense of survival
Swallow's arrival
Nature's blessings
Flowers popping up
It's time to hold on
For young and old
Nature's blessings
Cycle of every year
Winter months we bear
Now earthly warming
Nature's blessings
Worth all the gold
Nature's natural gift
To life we all hold
Nature's blessings called Spring

An inbuilt guilt
One gets frustrated when aspirations are not met
Dilemma spreads over split milk when opportunities are lost
Is it not human tendency to leave and forget?
He may try very hard for the course to set
You may feel boredom
Even if you attain great stardom
Is there any reason, sense or wisdom?
There is not use to feel is restriction for the want of freedom
Individual's rating may come down and will be on vane
There will total eclipse on thoughts in brain
He may be guided by others on important matters
He may read on doted lines by looking at letters
Once you have everything at your disposal
New suggestions may pour in with big proposals
You may not act on device which is purely mechanical
Time may when you may be overcome by diseases so chronicle
Time and tide wait for none
Fame may be enjoyed by you alone
It has to come by dint of ability
Not by praise or by publicity
Wise person may absorb it with all its ills
Strong desire may prevail as will
There may be obstacles like arrogance and false pride
That may engulf you and unnecessarily take control and ride
It is sign of simple maturity
It may need no clarity
It is wisdom coupled with clear vision
That may bring fame with precision
There is nothing to hide and nothing to seek
Try to look strong and not weak
Almighty may help you to achieve the goal
It may help you to dig out diamond from black coal
You are product of Almighty's bless
Whatever you may get should not be considered as less
You may have large followers and big name in press
Simple fact may emerge and you may not be in position to suppress
High rise or fame is luck by chance
You may feel right with pride at once
Honor and pride may have position or absence
False stardom or freedom may have no sense
How to ignore simple fact?
Why not to say no and react?
Is it not the folly on our part or unpardonable act?
We got to tackle it with real tact
Excess of everything also leads to boredom
It doesn't work and helps seldom
You may find success at every point
It may grant you peace not disappoint
The joy or happiness lies with us
We should not express or make any fuss
One has to feel contended
It is not concealment but openness that is needed
