Dirty Trics
It is said diplomacy thrives under dirty politics
There are no reasons, factors or any basics
There are simple calculations with statistics
In military terms it is simple staging point for logistics
Who cares for corruption or dictators?
Why only democratic countries are their mentors?
Why there is shedding of blood and precious lose of lives?
Who really cares for freedom, practices and believes?
In recent years the operations were carried out under thick smokes
The loss of lives was minimized and enemy was given first surprise stroke
The position was taken well in advance to be very much defensive
Even though it was meant to breach the line and halt the offensive
Many countries have halted the propaganda war
Few countries advocate liberty even though staying very far
World policing has become new order for the future strategy
All sorts of steps taken for canard, spread of rumors and false creation of bogey
It is dangerous to push peace loving people into open conflicts
We are totally unaware of facts and injury that may inflict
Thousands may become homeless and economy may be in peril
Their freedom may be lost just one word written from the pencil
Who are these so called champions of world order?
Why are they creating problems and encourages skirmishes on the borders?
What are they going to benefit from bloodshed of their own soldiers?
The families may be just wiping their tears along with grown up or teenagers
The world can not be restored to its formal glory even if with fine instructions
There is no peace, harmony and it is resulting only in destruction
Many inhabitants starve of food and malnutrition
What purpose can be served by providing simple ignition?
The natural resources are going to deplete very fast
Who knows when it will be pumping its last?
The areas may be spread over with areas very vast
But still doubts are raised and picture available is very contrast
You can not keep any one by force under subjugation
It is irrelevant, outdated and ruled out of question
No body can muffle the voice of popular banner
That must be seen in the larger perspective with scanner
You may occupy oil fields and provide latest weapons
You may flow the aid with all available coupons
Still the public anger may run high and prove as boomerang
The perpetrators may be done away with and publicly hanged

Good will
How dear is mother and motherland?
Is it simple flash piece or piece of land?
One gives birth and another gives means to live
Both are precious and holy if one takes on to believe
No one on this earth may tolerate any insult?
The sentiments are interwoven and carefully built
Millions may die for the holy cause and honor
The land has turned red many times in color
It is called supreme sacrifice if offered for defense
How many people might have laid down their lives to halt offense?
History is witness that offenders have fled away to save lives
Constant efforts have been made and all are keen or to thrive
The wanton killings and bloodshed is averted
The danger is for time being halted or diverted
The clouds do hover over the sky for causing destruction
At any moment world can be at war with little mischief or instructions
We have witness many changes in recent days
Mighty dictators have fled the land and paved the way
Yet there is human rights violations and suppression
Citizens are killed in their own land under oppression
Democratic countries too are not exception
They have cornered national wealth from the inception
There is no final check over them and have free hand
The people suffer under oppression in their own land
If it is foreign power then it is question of occupation
The dispute can not be confined to local in relation
It has dangerous consequences to engulf all and follow
The indefinite subjugation is not the solution and be allowed
We have seen ruthless purging
There has been no impact on appeal or urging
The blood is constantly shed leading to loss of lives
The situation has not improved and has made nose dive
The liberty and freedom movement has become farce
It has become ridiculous with the command of opportunist forces
We hear no talk on peace initiatives or cessation of hostile move
The danger still looms large with reign of terror and fear yet to be removed
We saw mass slaughters and ethnic cleansing with mass exodus
Many countries faced starvation with the increase of unmanageable influx
We could over come with the great plight and stopped complete annihilation
Yet the world is not assured of full liberty and equal participation
Let us pray almighty for to prevailing common sense and good will
At least there is full stop for border skirmished and unnecessary killings
Oppressors are given no chance to rule and shown the wall
Enough has been flown in red blood and now time is to recall

Freedom To My People
Dear peacekeeper
Please give freedom to my people here at home
And in the world
Some of my people have fanilies in the countries that are in war
But some of mypeople already lost their loved ones in the war in their Countries that are in war
That is because they served in the army of their country that is in the War
But they never returned home because they died fighting in the war in Their countries
So their loved ones had to pay a big price
Because at the same time they had to sacrifice their lives for their Countries at war
But my people here at home can't wait for the war to end at their Countries
So that they can go back to their countries that they came from

Let Life Be Spent
Let life be spent at ease
Many areas need care and fresh release
An area of peace, harmony and stability
That is far cry and needed for humanity
It takes life thousands of years back
So much to worry and so much to consider at stake
Who has benefited so far from the wars?
It has only pushed us to miseries and very far
We have seen countries going fast into disintegration?
Always at loggerheads with no cordial relation
Hostility on both the sides with no hope of resumption
Hate and distrust only on the false pride and assumptions
Any country can progress if people are safe
Live with full freedom and deciding the fate
Prosperity and peace as the core principles
Country is to be taken out of from clashes and troubles
Peaceful existence is only way out
Let there be nothing else to talk about
We have lot more to give to our future generation
Solutions and way out to live with harmony in question
This had been visualized by our forefathers
They wanted trouble free world from wars
They had seen and witnessed destruction
Now is the time for us to rebuilt and have solid construction
There is lot more to share and distribute
Wealthy nations have responsibilities and more to contribute
Many nations look toward them for generous attitude
Let wars be not waged on false pretext or any prelude
Era of cold war is over new thinking has emerged
World have moved further and still poised to surge
There is enough of room for future technology
Beneficial to all for growth and removal of old psychology
We may have problems concerning to safety
Yet trial can be given to preserve stability
If nations are at peace and resolve to stay together
The world can remain at her best here after

Change in order
I at once thought world should change its order
It should look one on map without any border
Freedom movement without any restrictions
Free flow of human traffic without any frictions
It may spread message of love and peace
This is golden opportunity we should not miss
It must strike to all that it is necessity and must
We should take lead start at once and be the first
Well these are simple thoughts and may not look real
From the face of it they may look worthy and ideal
How much can we do remove the plight or ordeal?
Can we not act as honest broker and strike a deal?
It may not find favor with many across the world
The response may be lukewarm or very cold
It is possible that they may not try to come in fold
It needs chance to realize with initiatives very bold
I am not here to advocate any principle or ideology
It is not simple out cry, alarm, propaganda or bogey
When world is driven by powerful lobby and money?
They need power blocks, powerful alliances and company
It can be ruled out at the outset or from the beginning
It may not even have good start or find good opening
Age old rivalries have taken a deep root with distrust
It is formidable ask to come out with mutual trust
It may disappear with passage of time and find solution
It doesn’t require and great change with bloody revolution
It also doesn’t require power dissipation or devolution
It needs preparedness or acceptance in mind with formulation
I am not sure of its reasonability or correctness
It may look good piece of writing with neatness
Still it seems that it should given fair chance or trial
No one from heart may disagree or offer denial
Everybody wants to live in peace with harmony
They may be living uncomfortably at odds with so many
It is desire from their heart that they should come in terms
To do away with all misconceptions which prove as germs?
You may not be great visionary and being your own drums
You may look idealist with blend of thoughts and good dreams
It may prove as driving force to come round with favor
Fragrance of love and peace may find place with flavor
I shall consider my self deem fit to be called a true son
If I can perform well with time and act as good person
It I change every time for needs without any strong reason
Nature too may feel shame if they shower or show up without season

Open the fire
“Fire” the word came out as the order from commander
It was move to stall the advancement and halt the invaders
They were large in numbers and move was little expected
He soldiers moved in readiness as were attacked
They were all ordered to move within short notice
It was breach of trust and violation of peace
Truce was not respected for greed of more land
The fresh soldiers were inducted to defend motherland
What can be more holy task than to defend the nation?
Why no one cares for life when its integrity is in question?
Such is spirit of young soldiers in army to protect boundary line
To shed the life in the service of motherland is considered as divine
I remember having answered one question put to me
I shall offer complete life if at all need arises or be
“What will be your priority in defending the country as free”?
I shall volunteer for army service and not attempt to flee
This kind of feeling was apparent in every able body person
We can’t think of in any terms when there is certainly no reason
Each individual is duty bound to offer voluntary service
As country’s independence can’t be equated with any price
Wars are not only costly but invites lots of destruction
Men and materials are lost to thwart such insurrections
No one benefits out of such mad adventure
Country is loosing in all terms as threatened with future
Skirmishes on the boundary is regular and routine feature
Enemy troops may intrude in territory fir adventure
Sometimes it may be repulsed and sometimes may succeed
But overall precaution may be taken to keep the boundaries free
As we heard the shout from the commander
The position was immediately taken to make them surrender
We had well trenched position and were not aught off the guard
They were halted with heavy casualties and stopped form moving forward
The gamble did not pay off and met with failure
We had worked hard in peace time and wonderfully assured
Not a bird was allowed to enter our land or air space
We were all well prepared to halt any chase
We were given praise by our immediate and superior officers
As we were sole custodian of country’s holy borders
Anything wrong on our part was to be condemned and taken as national shame
Slight deviation from the duty was certain to invite the blame

Two Countries
Two countries, both wanting peace.
From a war, that raged for years.
Both countries wanting to be right.
Both countries they live in fear.
One country puts their weapons down,
Then the other it invades.
The surrendered country defends itself,
The hope for peace it fades.
Both countries, still, they want a truce,
Yet the fight, it rages on.
Neither willing to call it quits.
Until all hope is gone.
One day they see a little child,
True victim of the war.
His bruised and battered little body,
Lay wounded on the floor.
Two countries fought for many years.
Regardless the cost.
What it was, they hoped to find.
The innocent had lost.

Border guards
What the soldiers are expected to perform?
On the field and off the field to inform
About their personal attitude towards enemy soldiers
And to maintain human values as guard on borders
There is real feeling of brotherhood when prevails calm
Regular visit to their bunkers in peace time without any harm
Exchange of greetings on festival days and respect for family members
Sweet memory, grief, burden or welfare to remember
When hostility is likely to resume or danger bell sounds
There is concern when skirmishes are shadowing with firing of rounds
No one knows who will hit and face the casualty
Peace atmosphere is broken with the arrival of hostility
Many countries have faced volatile borders
The peace accord is broken as if for the benefit of traders
New weaponry is to be tested on the battle field
Who is bothered about gain or loss or territories held?
New round of peace talks and firing still on
How the soldiers can rejoice when their bodies are torn?
Daily there is loss of some lives as if they are heard of ships
Bodies may return home for families at home to weep
When country is really at war, the war cry is heard
The countless losses along with human lives is feared
Many children may turn orphans as war may be raged
The situation there after may not be successfully managed
The scenario is so hysterically up sided that soldiers turn fierce enemies
Men in uniforms put hand ready on triggers as ordered by the armies
The blood is rushed to their eyes to finish each others with revenge
The national interest comes to their mind and consciously up to avenge
Who knows how many bodies lay scattered in the battle field?
Even though the scene is different as latest weapons are used
Still the draggers and bayonets are used to score over adversary
There may be many occasions to celebrate it as triumph anniversary
What is value of life in the minds of uniform men?
Are they totally indifferent to their brethren and other humans?
Do they really feel joy when dragger is pierced through body?
Does he really think that it can be him one day or any body?
The triumph echo may die soon and peace may prevail again?
The loss on both the sides may be forgotten with piece of land regained
The bodies may be exchanged with full guard of honor
The fallen guards may be considered as martyrs and nation’s saviors

If I Was Freedom
If i was freedom:
i would be free and for free.
Citizens of the world would'nt have to
Pay with their blood, lives and sweat.
If i was freedom,
i would be omnipresent;
in first, second and third world countries.
Poor and rich people would afford.
Black, white, green people would all know me.
If i was freedom,
i would be Nemesis:
i would destroy all humans and beast alike who seek to inhibit me,
i would conquer them with love
If i was freedom the world would be free by now.
But im not freedom.

The three main sources of scepticism are first, that not every people desires freedom; second, that democracy in certain parts of the world would be dangerous; and third, that there is little the world's democracies can do to advance freedom outside their countries.

The Victory Day
The 8th -9th of May – the Greatest Day,
the Saint Holiday – the Victory Day.
A holiday with glee and spree,
a holiday with tears that appear
remembering those soldiers,
the heroes of the Second World War.
Those hardcore days
we don’t want to face anymore.
That was the largest war
in the history of mankind,
I don’t want you to be blind
but to know and remember the facts:
almost 58 million of men were lost.
Wasn’t it the highest cost?
62 countries out of 73
fought against fascist regime
in one international team.
More than 80% of the Earth population
were involved in military operation,
covering the territories of 40 countries,
bringing only grief, hunger, sufferings and worries.
I looked at the pictures of those young guys,
those heroes of the Second World War
and tried to realize who they were before.
It’s difficult to guess but I would like to suggest:
among them was someone’s son
who had never seen a gun,
someone’s first student or a teacher,
someone’s darling, friend or a preacher.
They had laid down in the fields of fights
struggling for freedom and human rights.
They had given their lives for you and me,
for everyone to be free and live happily,
for the grass to be green,
for the sky to be blue and clean.
Someone in ancient times once said:
“If you want peace be ready for the war.”
These words are not for today.
Yes, we shout “Hurray! ”
But if we want peace
we have to do everything for love to increase
But not use military force
which is only the source of sufferings and the losses
with so many costs.
Yes, we celebrate this day and shout “Hurray”, say “Cheers”
wishing everyone live in lasting peace,
not to know a war decease.
We remember the most impressive celebration
when two nations: American and Russian soldiers
met on the banks of the Elbe and could finally see
the end of that horrible war.
With admiration and joyfully they embraced one another
as if they were old friends or even brothers.
So, today, on the 8th of May I would like to say:
Peoples of our planet Earth!
Remember! We are the part of the whole Universe.
Take care of our Land!
Everyone has to understand:
if you want peace
You have to do everything for love to increase.

Just war
It may be just war
With nothing to offer
Justice or injustice
It is breach of trust and promise
Who will want to suffer?
When it has nothing to offer
Except war widows and orphans
What can be left behind except pain?
Many might have been rendered homeless?
The world might have to see ugly face
Face the hunger and colossal losses
Still left more with humanitarian issues
Many bodies may lye scattered
Not a word about them to be uttered
It is sheer madness and joke
Houses burn with thick smoke
Who will identify bodies?
Whether belong to men or ladies!
Total disrespect to human being
We have seen wars and gained nothing
Vultures may eat flashes
War may soon finish
Nothing to look back for reasons
World at large might have lost best persons
World bodies suffer from politics
Seized with numbers and statistics
Big countries may influence their decision
Poor countries may suffer because of indecision
We may watch it as helpless game
There is no one to whom you can blame
It may go on so long ambition remains
Countries may go in for war even if their treasure drains
War may be necessary in extreme situation
When there may be more danger of its continuation
Hiroshima and Nagasaki are living examples
Where we had to bury neutrality and principles
War wounds are not easy to heal
The nationals may bitterly feel
Bear grudge against nations imposing war
Then where we will end and go how far?

Rise of nationalism
I witness the rise of nationalism
Sometimes it is mixed with regionalism
Far cry is heard for rights violation and humanism
If I sincerely admit then it lacks proper mechanism
How does it vitiate international understanding?
Compromise of principles and unholy bonding
War crime perpetuators are give patronage
All sorts of encouragement is given to increase the bondage
How come we fail to hear the cry of Afrikaners?
How are they killing their own brethren as sinners?
We merely watch the butcher’s game and mutely observe
We have only weapons but no food and medicines to serve
Let the religious sentiments be buried under the earth belt
Its necessacity in life is must and very much felt
No one can claim purity on the ground of religious supremacy
We have only two hands to rise for blessings and mercy
It is good to be conscious of freedom rights
It is equally good to offer legitimate fight
No one may mind if it is confined to constitutional change
It is altogether different when ways adopted are strange
How can you establish supremacy on the basis of race?
What brave front you may put as innocent face?
How world may believe your words for guarantee?
How can world be allowed to breathe then free?
The tall world order is shaking
The big countries are claiming and staking
Their interest collide with liberty and freedom
Not a word is spoken against and heard seldom
We are not rooting out the real enemy
The weak countries are ruled with tyranny
The dictators find safe heaven with ill gotten money
This is how world stage is managed by many
To make it worse either side is supported
Their national wealth is cleverly looted
Puppet regime is installed and penalty is imposed
How does the trust or confidence can be reposed?

In view of China's growing military strength and intentions, the best way to safeguard Asia's permanent peace and prosperity is to have all Asian countries join forces with other democratic countries in the world to form a global community of democracies.
On What Constitutes Freedom
On what constitutes freedom we do not agree
For what is freedom to you is not freedom to me
That Countries should have borders you see as okay
But I look at that in a different way
In our thinking of freedom we have got it wrong
The Country we live in to us does not belong
The borders we create we have to defend
One reason that war in the World may not end,
You boast of your love of your National flag
To you something like that does seem well worth a brag
Suppose to each their own as some are known to say
We all look at things in a different way
Your idea of freedom is different to mine
But that you have your own opinions does suit me fine.

I cried whole night
I cried whole night for world peace in east
It was just before dropping of nuclear bomb with holocaust
Millions perished in just few seconds
Never to be seen on face of earth with tragic end
My tears had not dried up and world was again threatened
Millions were rooted from their forefather's homeland
I took deep breathe as it was for time being averted
Normalcy was restored and for time being peace zone was converted
Those deadly weapons of mass destruction are not of old memory
Everybody may shiver with slight occurrence and feel sorry
Wars are not happy occasions to celebrate with joy
Nation in particular and world at large has some army to deploy
I cry in corner for war orphans, destitute and killed
They were bread earner and in real sense skilled
Who will go and wipe their tears with few kind words?
I fear no one will as it is the wish of trigger happy war lords
World's larges democratic country was sent with shock waves
Who knows how many really were buried alive or lost lives?
As mother earth I tested human blood on my surface
As if I was oozing red tears with no strength to face
Let war be taking place at any side of globe
I am the only sufferer to grieve the loss and sob
I feel my children are annihilated for no fault of their crimes
Why can't you all draw some kind of safety lines?
You all assure me about not shedding a blood
Instead, wage a war on creating enough food
Feed all those hungry mouth now dying without source
Divert all destructive means to create strong peaceful force
I dream about complete universe with no violence
Not a skirmish even on boundaries with slight chance
Let people of whole world come out from their old mentality
I may then only be at ease with peace in totality

War Cry and After
No country wants its dismemberment!
Wrong misadventure brings bad moment
It leads to humiliation and shame
Whole country stands along and subjected to blame
No one may go into actual cause
Whether it was imposed or forced
Mighty may rule and manage the scene
The tragedy and plight may only be seen
As beggars have no choice
So is the terms and condition with no promises
The country may be plundered and subjected to loot
Simple passers by may suffer and simply shoot at
People go war hungry and loose the common sense
Fall in with false propaganda and situation is made tense
Third party gets benefit out of it and reaps the harvest
The countries suffer due to their own follies and stand the acid test
Population may suffer most and under go agony and plight
The children may get no medicine and women may loose rights
Their honor may be at stake and position may turn tight
The war is lost without firing and shot or going into fight
In current age it looks all useless
The dragon stands there with ugly face
Who suffers most and benefits and at what cost?
Humanity has suffered and war has been lost
All greedy eyes are on natural wealth
Many countries suffer most on ground of health
Paucity of funds and corruption is taking heavy toll
The mistrust and apprehensions erects its own wall
Let each country shape its own development
Live within boundary and with free movement
Build the relation with neighboring countries and progress
Why at all there should be war cry and mad race?

Lie and canard
It is blatant lie and canard
No one is allowed to say a word
Especially for a saint and father of nation
How can such lies are spread for any such relation
A lie can not become truth
Thousands of tales can not prove
A father of nation may live in our heart
We were give new light to start
How a nation can build reputation?
Can meet aspirations and live unto expectations
We need not show progressive world what we did
They have their axe to grind and find no lead
A legendry figure and respected world over
He needs no mention or special cover
The sun and its image can not be tarnished
They will stand high even if whole world is finished
Let historians search in relevant context
It should not be based to malign the text
In other countries it might have created bloodshed
At home we are fully aware and properly fed
Such books should not find even mention
It does great harm and spoils the relation
Modern world does not allow spread of hatred
When people are staving for the want of bread
Let us play constructive and true role for humanism
It has no place for gossips and criticism
The national sentiments should never be hurt
It is worst than insulting friend or throwing the mud

Freedom
To free from bondage is called freedom
It is born out of struggle and wisdom
It can be armed struggle, uprising or mutiny
Its impact can be felt far off or near vicinity
It is collective and not single handedly fought
Not only involves liberation but freedom of thought
Clear vision with real goal is pursued and sought
Secure boundary is created and peace is brought
People might have suffered and under gone anguish
Pushed in jails for untold sufferings and to languish
Losses of precious human lives and resolve to perish
As freedom is not won in a single day or finished
It is holy task to liberate the land from foreign yoke
Continuous hard struggle and not a matter of joke
Many countries may not support cause and poke
They may thwart the movement under thick smoke
Freedom once won must be preserved with care
Affairs to be managed with no option to go any where
First, house should be put in order to make it reality
To meet people’s aspirations and work in unity
Hard won freedom should not be lost for silly reason
One should know the meaning of freedom of expression
It is of no use if we don’t come out of economic slavery
Country may loose independence despite bravery
Nobody is refugee here and it is home for all
National building poverty elimination should be call
Universal brotherhood and world peace should be the motto
Nobody should be deprived of life and sent or to ghetto
Freedom is won on certain ideals and principles
It may be hard for others to accept and act as disciples
Nothing should be allowed to run or go as contrary
Nation should represent truly and find place as honourary
Freedom should not to be compromised at any cost
Ideology may differ but national interest as super most
World should count on us as true friend and champion
Should have respectable position in affairs of the region
Even if as a power there should be honour for sovereignty
Help to poorer amongst poor and respect for integrity
Freedom and liberty can be enjoyed with grant of rights
End to hostilities and strong resolve to end fights

Peace and honor for new nation
Peace and honor should go together
It is big question to understand and bother
It involves no big or small nations
But question of deep attachment in relation
No country may want to live under shame
Popular will in this sense can’t be blamed
The tolerance has its limit and may anytime explode
At any time to attain the real freedom
Even bad rulers may be tolerated
If their steps are welfare oriented
Certain amount of misrule is also of less concern
Until it speaks of no bad intention and turn
The desert fox connived for higher ambition
It exceeded all civil norms and limitations
People could no more trust for their lives
Normal men had no means with peace to live
Country could afford no more burdens
It needed out burst with ignition all of sudden
One more fatal blow and nation was to be restored
To its full glory of past and honored
Finally it has seen the golden day
Peace has finally descended in its own way
Country has witnessed enough of bad blood
There is shortage of medicines, commodities and food
Libyan people are brave and blessed with natural wealth
There is enough to eat and manage for good health
If people are happy and remain united
It is befitting occasion to feel as librated
Any nation may feel proud with its ancient heritage
Only rulers take note of it and ably manage
Whether system is democratic or with semi pattern
It must be happily shared by all without any concern
We all must wish this young nation a prosperous start
Live in harmony with neighbors and never depart
From stated position of non-interference and neutrality
That shall certainly grant peaceful atmosphere with stability

A war clouds
It is not the question of wordy duel
It is raging fire added with fuel
How a person can turn cruel?
Why can’t they have peace mutual?
This can’t go to their head
They want marching army ahead
They want to show overall lead
They want the message to be clearly read
It has remained age old dream and wish
They wanted hegemony and others to finish
Aim is only arms trade to flourish
they have only death faces to kiss
World have faced many holocaust
Natural and man made outbursts
Skirmishes on boundary lines
Celebration with champagnes and wines
Enough blood is to be bled but for whom?
War clouds may overcast and zoom
The war will be declared soon
The dark shed may appear on moon
Is it not the blot on humanity?
We want to continue the hostility
Do he wars have some special quality?
Destruction and deaths unnecessary and in futility
Is it not the devils dream with evil design?
How can we entertain and meekly resign/
There is still no sign of remorse
The war is thrust by tremendous force
War can change entire scene
The scattered bodies all over seen
Who are all very eager and keen?
Many countries actively involved and deliberately in
Hail their feat with loud applause
Die with hunger but passions don’t rouse?
Tolerate the injustice and hang on for destruction
Only deaths may await you as pure instruction
There is no joy or gladness
It will increase only sadness
Millions may die of hunger and starvation
World may watch silently with observation
They may thrive on lucrative business
It is pure consideration and madness
Few countries may benefit and others suffer
Let us join the threads and not differ
It may spill blood and result in quarrels
There will be exchange gun fire from barrels
It won’t be fight between loyalists and rebels
It may find name in holy war as label
Why can’t we profess bullet for ballet?
Love and peace without any hatred
Let durable peace prevail with peace mission ahead
We as citizens come forward and lead
There is no realization and escape route
As we have failed to eradiate cause or root
It may engulf entire area in turmoil
There will be subjugation and occupation
Besides death, economy may cause hardship
The war mongers may claim real championship
The diplomacy may take over and initiatives may be thrust
All in good faith with broad smile and trust
