Everybody Can
Everybody can feel satisfied
He needs not to have lied
Trust even if expectations are bellied
As you had blindly relied
You need not have special qualification
To know the problem with root cause and question
It is sense of common knowledge
That may mature even before age
Education provide little edge
Individual may have leverage
Other things may rest on how you manage
As everything is new to be written on page
It is sheer ability and firm resolve
That makes task easy to solve
One may clearly see through the object
Success may be there as matter of fact
Love to work even if you are short of experience
The intelligence can be categorized with variance
Nobody can claim it merely on having expertise
It rests finally on the ability to materialize
Even uneducated and illiterate fair better
They achieve it by working together
Take the support of known persons
And show to the world with strong reasons

Education gives us........
Does the education give us more knowledge?
Make intelligence sharp to cut the edge?
Does it inspire intelligentsia to take more pledge?
Is it simply the symbolic gesture in form of badge?
Common sense is prevalent in living body
Can best be used by individual or anybody
What matters most is its application
Wrong use of it may lead to suffocation
Education or knowledge gives you eye to watch
Nose and ears with extra sense to catch
Quarrels avoided and may show the way to patch
Lead to big yield and without proving match
Illiterates have common sense and ability to lead
All the times they will need guidance and feed
Literates can think well ahead and act
Balance approach and enough time to react
Knowledge and power leads to smartness and elegance
It may look as if air is filled with fragrance
Wherever you go, leave the lasting impression
Saves you from down fall and forceful emersion
Nothing to match with ideas and its execution
Nothing will be had even if you to go any institution
It is self assertion and simple approach to solution
Hard even it may be, complete answer with logical dilution
May need its proper use and application
Will earn you laurels and visible citation
Certificates of work and good appreciation
Choosing of correct path with slight or no deviation
It is not easy to go all alone
Enough try to dislodge you with effect of cyclone
Will have to stand on the patchy ground
Act swiftly and fast with little or slight sound
Only knowledge on paper or in mind will not prove
Degrees and qualifications may not lead and improve
Your actions and work may find objection and disapproval
Cry from all over for disqualification and removal
It is like both the side of the coin
Proper use and missteps foil
Image building with strong resolve
Thwarting attempts and finally dissolved

Treat It As Casual
What waits in store for any individual?
We don’t take it seriously and treat as casual
We have all the limitations and no freedom to act
This proves handicap to all kind of progress in fact
Some where you are bogged down either by ill fate
Or by the scarcity of funds or coming on scene very late
You are not fully within the control of the situation
This mark slow down of your march in continuation
How the to come out of uncertainty and surge ahead
Take full control of the situation and provide the lead
Show to the world that you are in position to deliver
You are strong supporter and firm believer
The key to your success is firm commitment
There is progress all around and positive movement
You are not influenced by any out side factor
This paves way for your emergence as clear victor
Until you become master of your own destiny
You can’t be respected in high esteem by many
You will have to prove your ability and resolve
That you are capable and in position to solve
No one can guarantee for full success
Even if he is blessed with situation and full access
Some of the factors are beyond his control
And that takes him out of scene with heavy toll
We are human beings and need some kind of grace
In grim situation we are puzzled and unable to face
In such situation we need strong moral support
Nothing can achieved in absence even if put in lots of efforts
Barring few of such handicaps man can claim highest peak
No cone can stop him from doing so even if he is weak
As wind is favorable and all factors work on his side
Everything is added to his success as area has become very wide
It is easy to dream about lovely shore
Land there safely with lot more to explore
This can only be possible when you are clear
About your ambition, mission and that too without fear
You can be up against ante and sail through
The passage may not smooth that is also true
Yet you are determined to avail an opportunity
And that proves as tremendous boost with high quality
You can now claim as person of high repute
You have good name, fame and nothing to dispute
Fortune has swung in your favor and speaks of great volume
You can relax now in life in leisure and at free will can resume

You have the right to feel, you are successful
Success, sweet success
Success, it is waiting for you
To own and hold on to it
Success of any kind
Has easy access
If you are after it restlessly
Success is not indeed the end
It is the beginning of a
New chain of successes
Simple it is to be successful
So simple, you wonder how many of us are not at it
It all depends on what you feel
Success means to you
You may school your thoughts
And train your emotions
To feel successful on everything
That happens around you
Your retention of all your
Physical, mental and social abilities
Is indeed your success
Your ability to make friends
And help them out in times of need
Is indeed your success
Your ability to keep your cool
In emotionally competing events
And situations
Is indeed your success
Your ability to make your ends meet
Come over challenges, emotional or otherwise
At the right time and in a rightful manner
Is indeed a success
Your ability to stand up
And hold on to your values
Is indeed a success
Your ability to be able to
Discharge your assigned responsibilities
Is indeed your success
Your ability to objectively assess
People and events
Without painting them subjectively
Is indeed your success
Your ability to stay most of your time positive
Progressive and productive
Creative and innovative
Is indeed your success
Your ability to hold on to
Your original traits
Without succumbing to the temptations
Of becoming someone else
Is indeed your success
If this forms your scale to measure success
You have the right to feel
You are successful

A Good Education Need Of The Hour!
Education decides about the future life and work for all;
Education only helps to develop one’s life and work here.
Mere education is not passport to get job but it’s for life;
Mere education helps not to face life situation or crisis;
Common sense, presence of mind, general knowledge do!
For everything education is the base in the modern world;
Education is for freedom, development and fulfilment in life;
Education helps intellectual mind to acquire true knowledge.
Knowledge only can give power, freedom and satisfaction;
Knowledge of love, truth gives freedom to attain perfection.
Dharma is justice to live righteous life according to one’s nature;
Religion is to say about truth of God, dharma and culture to all;
Education is to help develop one’s capacity with apt knowledge
To express talent using ideas of knowledge in duty to do things
Beneficial to oneself, society to achieve joyful fulfilment in life!
Now education does not serve such purpose but crams knowledge
Incomplete just to do specialised jobs only for material benefits.
Complete knowledge makes link of science, literature and culture;
This could satisfy body, mind, heart and soul to achieve completion;
Love and knowledge make perfect to attain joy, peace, satisfaction!

To deny natural divide
How to deny natural divide when it exists?
How to side with untruth when someone insists?
How shut eyes and feel dark when light is seen?
I can’t go with all as I am not blind and not so keen
The natural principles to believe in constant change
You stick to rigidity and you are out of race to manage
No one may prefer you as an ardent supporter
Once you have fallen out of grace as an observer
The distinction is rightly drawn for available facts
One must think positive and clearly fall in line with to act
You can’t make believe day a night and night a day
It has its own accepted routes to force its way
What if one refuses to believe in sun shine?
How world can look different if you are under influence of wine?
Some of the universal changes do not alter the basic reality
To go with it or not rests upon your common sense and ability
It won’t serve any good and cause immense harm
Days may not go cold when they are already warm
The seasons are armed with all kind of changes
As human being we are prone to certain things but unable to change
We are sure of the fact that love blinds a person
Almighty has induced it in human being with some reasons
He must cry, delight, laugh and slip into memory
Some of the heaviness lessens with the expression of sorry
Mix reaction may not evoke good response
It may make you vulnerable with no sense
It will add tension, anxieties and worry
You will burdened most and compelled to carry
It is foolishness on our part not to distinguish good from bad
It may sometimes lead us to believe and next moment very sad
These are all interlinked and considered as two sides of the coin
The pain may reduce if you try artificially to laugh while actually in pain
Everybody know the facts still refuse to believe
With wrong notion and belief and prefer fallacy to live
Not day or night deter or for that matter truth or lie
Only one fear keeps under control that certain possibility to die
We could have defied the universal law
If it had some short cuts with loop holes or flaw
We could escape unnoticed with sheer intelligence
But alas! We are constantly reminded of its presence

Sonnet: True Success Is God-destined
Some think they can achieve all things by sheer
Hard-work, intelligence and on their own;
Some think they can do things while they drink beer,
Through slaves and cell-phones, working in a town!
Some think that back-door entry is the best!
They use their clout and influence and bribe;
Some achieve things by turning into pest,
And some others are sheer will-powered tribes.
Some pray to God but never labor hard;
Some labor hard but never pray to God;
The one who mixes both gets his reward;
The lucky/ plucky man cannot be Lord!
True success comes when man does as God says,
And such a man gets surely better days!

What Makes Us Human
I believe ability makes us intelligent, it distinguishes us from animals
I believe all have the ability to learn, to create art, to love
I believe we can let our ability go to waste, or we can let it flourish
I believe our ability that makes us human is our intelligence and good judgement
I believe many choose to ignore this ability and rely on animalistic instinct
I believe some humans treat animals better than humans
I believe to make this world peaceful we need to let our abilities flourish
It is curious that many people advocate humane treatment for animals, but treat actual humans inhumanely

A primary knowledge
The knowledge of past history would have remained just an illusion
Had that not been taken over by saints and philosophers without any questions?
Where was it to be stored in the absence of required material and facility?
Still it was there foresight and future vision that it remained a subject of nobility
Why was it needed at all when human was capable of thinking it alone?
If the ability and knowledge was the only answer then it would have not been done
It was felt necessary to keep it retained with saints who kept them alive
In spirit and in its essence to make the life worth and to live
I am of the opinion that vastness of size does not matter
The sea has enough of treasure which has remained unutilized for ever
So if knowledge is to remain untapped then it will be unfortunate for mankind
It is simply nutrition which is essentially required for the growth of human mind
We are provided with an extra sense of observing the minute change
Only book knowledge may not help to understand it better or manage
It has remained our previlage to know it from renowned or knowledgeable persons
As knowledge has not been confined to books and advanced to us with reasons
It is advocated often and again that life is full of mystery
No one can draw or define it with short summary
All the more it has become important and necessary
Everything has been inscribed now clearly and not remained as history
The knowledge has remained consistently as source of inspiration
It has provided ladder to scale life steps with joy and elation
At no stage it has deserted or deceived and proved us very wrong
It has built belief, provided relief and helped to come out very strong
It has never been confined to religion base alone but to scientific field too
It has witnessed tremendous change and decisively gone through
It was not source of discontentment but inspiration and rejuvenation
It has crossed all the boundaries and now become important for inter nations
It is sheer luck that we are gifted with all documental evidences
Many glorious events of past are quoted as an examples or instances
It is nice to feel pulse of past and feel very proud
It speaks of rich heritage and also of strong ground
The past knowledge has survived
The old link is maintained and revived
We can stand erect and claim rich
The same can be passed on or reached

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

Sharda' the Goddess of power or knowledge
Everyone bow with respect and knowledge,
See the impact and mutely acknowledge,
Clear gain and scoring the edge,
For universal benefit we take pledge,
People may worship divine power,
So we do and pray Goddess “Sharda”
Mother of all with knowledge profound,
Height to glory and top position found,
Had she been not there staying within?
World barren and confined with secrets thin,
What an ideas, eager to find, zeal to venture,
Make us perfect with seasons and mature,
Illiterate turn great with her blessings,
Sans bless people remain blank and sense missing,
Lucky are those who harness it proper,
Rest roam aimless and prove flopper,
Authority they assert as glow appear,
Ordinary and normal pretend with cloths wear,
Honour and respect with people’s cheer,
Permanent place find by dint ability sheer,
World has witnessed might of thought,
Wars averted without being caught,
No bloodshed, no misery as happiness sought,
So with HIS grace secrets in light brought

Special
I been trying for so long
To get you where I stand
Feel like I been climbing all my life
Everybody told me
I'd never ever get this far
I know I can make it if I try
There's the special things that come your way
?I'll be praying? no matter what they say
Special things that somehow come to you
(come to you, you too, to you, do to, be do, you)
Special things come to you
There's no sense in trying to fight it
When I want something so bad
No, it's not as easy as it seems
Simple things are the hardest
Of the things we do for love
And I won't give up cause I'm not just what it means
The special things you dream about
And the special things you're all about
Special things that somehow come to you
And it's the simple things to just believe
And the special things that you want to see
Special things somehow come to you
(come to you, doo doo doo, to you, doo doo doo)
Special things (doo, doo ahh, you doo)
Do do doo, on you, do do doo, to you
Do doo, ahh, do do doo, too
There's the special things that come your way
?I'll be praying? no matter what they say
Special things that somehow come to you
The special things you dream about
And the special things you're all about
Special things that somehow come to you
There's the special things that come your way
?I'll be praying? no matter what they say
Special things that somehow come to you
And it's the simple things to just believe
And the special things that you want to see
Special things somehow come to you

With no remorse
With no remorse
I look back with no remorse
It has left bitterness but with no force
I have overcome with strong resolve
I was well determined and equipped to solve
It breaks any spirit that seems little weak
Fails to assert and in command to speak
For self and rest of the family members
Yet no one retraces steps to surrender
I have reason to feel elated
As whole success story is beautifully related
I have tackled it with pride and honor
It was almost dreamed and sought for
I look at young grand children playing with the games
Wonder at them for availing the best of the names
Comfortably placed in heir age with nothing more to blame
I am also fully surprised how I had faced it and overcame!
Whole of the events passed off as serial show
I had lot many problems to counter and grow
It was tough time to face entire community
To stand against their attitude and prove the ability
"The fortune favors the brave" I had read it somewhere
Even passers by knew it clearly as where to dare
I was female alright but new very well that sky had no limit
It needed only right occasion to cope with and readily greet
Today I am like big tree and feel so much proud
I can right say and claim it from point of strength so loud
It need not be exaggerated but real things can be spoken off well
The world is right place to live in and experience to tell

Strong and Not Weak
Work must start with strong resolve
The problem must be over and solved
It should never stop in between
The result will be immediately seen
What makes task easy and smooth?
When you put everything through nail and tooth
It may pave the way for success
When you find master key with access
Through study may make it still easy
When you may involve more to get busy?
It has to make the way for further inroad
Even if it is laden with lots of efforts and load
Fortune may smile with passage of time
The success story may appear many times
Life may become embodiment of ladder
You may go on with success as leader
The honesty and dedication plays great part
Suddenly you don't get it with little start
It has to be slow and steady
But you must always be alert and ready
Let your name be aligned with future
As you have made it amply clear
Success means life that speaks
You are taken as strong and not weak

Living Large In Poverty
All things being equal I'd rather be rich,
However, thing don't always work out,
So I'm resigned to spend my time in poverty,
Working in the dirt and grime.
Why, or why me Lord, I may ask,
Gently proding the almighty for just one task,
I wondered if it would be possible,
Just bless me temporarily the ability to pay my bills,
Then I will be a changed fellow.
I then figured then that money was my problem.
What I didn't realize then,
But I do now,
It isn't a matter of money,
It is a matter of know how.
Now matter how you work,
You may never get ahead,
And then there are people who just work themselves dead.
I looked in the mirror and then decided,
Give me the poverty,
And all I need is the serenity,
To be able to live comfortably,
Now, I live with my means,
Not wanting for things,
And I'm very happy.
You may ask, what did I learn?
I will say, ' Living in poverty is not so bad,
Especially if you have a rich dad! '

All about fate
Before you come to know about fate
Before it is realized or come to know very late
Take it on with full and final assault
Nothing should termed then as your fault
You are destined to meet certain things
I may result concrete or into anything
You may have some satisfaction of trying
You may accept it as final without crying
It is how life moves on with all ups and down
You may gain the popularity and be the talk of town
Your name may sometimes be dragged in controversy
You have the ability to come out of it with diplomacy
It is personal matter and has its own charm
It may always help and not result into any harm
You are to maintain relations very warm
There is no need to worry or feel alarmed
You might be carried away by strong wind
You may have awkward position to find
People may try to be hostile and unkind
You got to come out of it and don’t mind
No one can alter the position
It is blended in nice composition
There is no disbelief or superstition
It comes to life with some ignition
It may add to our woe
It may unseat you or throw
Amidst all you have to grow
Stick o position and sustain the blow
You are gifted with powers to change
You have ability to write on page
It is the strong resolve that may create history
Success only as others to leave behind as mystery

Infestation Of Getting 'High' On Education
The increasing costs of one's higher education,
Provides 'what' as a guarantee?
Intelligence?
Common sense?
An ability to know the difference between...
Being accountable and responsible?
Competent 'with' integrity?
Does the increasing costs of one's education,
Automatically bestow pride...
And identity?
Or is one paying to network nonsense?
To ensure more of it becomes obvious as seen.
And we all benefit by the process of this...
Infestation of getting 'high' on education and not deeds.

Educate Woman
To educate a woman is to educate a nation
Do not deprive the woman of education
Do let her know what she is to mention
Wherever she goes throughout the nation
Let her use skill in estimation
Let her learn what is real; not hallucination
Give her a chance to get that that salutation
Which men do get because of education
A woman that has much education
Will teach her children motivation
She’ll train them to support the nation
They’ll always have the best of intention
Knowledge is essential in every institution
The family too needs education
The woman’s own is more to mention
Educated women save the nation
When a woman excels in education
That woman can then build a mansion
A real estate not imagination
All because of worthy education
Fellow women I need your attention
Let seeking for knowledge be your aspiration
Stick to it with all devotion
Absence of knowledge causes indignation
A woman too observes the nation
She knows what goes in and out in motion
For her to be accurate in observation
A woman needs some sort of intuition
Think of knowledge with deep emotion
Illiterates know nothing but mere illusion
A strong nation is built by education
Illiteracy burns and destroys a nation
A nation in a fatal situation
Needs educated men and women in combination
Support them in their various occupations
They’ll unite and be strong and build the nation
Illiterate women are easy preys for seduction
They live in houses of corruption
Making money quickly is their desperation
A rich man’s camp is their destination
An educated woman has a good reputation
She does not support that which leads to deterioration
Her aim is not to cause commotion
She supports and fights to build the nation
An educated woman uses skill in communication
When she talks she corrects a situation
She’ll disconnect all those bad connections
She’ll not be bribed she hates corruption
Knowledgeable people working in collaboration
Do not employ those without education
They are not included in their collection
Same happens to women with no education
Knowledge is essential it is an obligation
Men, women both need education
Knowledge destroys all bad solutions
Education, knowledge saves the nation

A Woman Of Determination
A woman of determination and ability will still work.
A woman of determination and ability will still triumph.
She will still achieve, a productive rewarding, successful career.
She may still rise, to the top, dominate any profession her abilities;
dedication, education, personality, management skills; training allow.
Few men, will achieve any better, most will achieve far less.
A man, a true partner, can will, also be a house husband.
A man, can will, also sacrifice, for the career of his partner.

Cowardice Stand
It is not good to have cowardice stand
Not all foes can be called future friend
They must be shown their right place
As life is just open for all to win the race
No one decides our destiny
It may be claimed by many
But keep them at arm’s length
Show them your resolve and real strength
How can they be right?
When you have will power to fight
You can sail through any storm
When wind is in favor and sun very warm
Age may play its role and so the nature
We have the key and have to make it sure
What can be fate tomorrow is anybody’s guess
Get prepared for it and express readiness in any case
The idea must be conceived from the very start
This is one of the beautiful gift or art
Every individual is gifted with it by almighty
Only it must be shown with confidence and ability
There has to be no letting in at any stage
New words are to be written on every page
Each page must speak of its own story
There is no scope to feel later on sorry
Confirm that you are individual
Your approach may be casual
But you are not lost soul
You might have committed fowl
