Follow the basic

I imagined the sky to be hollow
I forced my thoughts to go slow
It was an ordinary day to think
It was all the way bad for me to sink

I looked pale and surrendered to logic
It was suggesting me to follow the basic
At no stage I had some fear and apprehensions
Life seemed to me useless and full of questions

What sky had to offer to me in general?
Except its blue horizon and endless zone in particular
I took it as source of inspiration
In its hollowness there appeared to be self revelation

What transpired in my mind to go for solution?
Was some change expected for possible revolution?
I thought of The Great Ashoka who left the whole empire
Even today whole world takes note of his contribution and admire

It is said he witn3essed the mass destruction and slaughter
There was complete victory but nothing to enjoy after
He had victory on field but loss at heart
This was turning point for his good start

Sometimes we are winning in field but loosing at home
You are praised alright but never get rousing welcome
People are bitter about your highhandedness
Lots of criticism and adverse comments are there to f ace

Yes such attitude troubled me for long duration
I had everything but lacked proper satisfaction
Something was really absent to feel enjoyment
Some good thing was taking shape with solid movement

In life material gain or achievement is not that important
The progress may be there and remain constant
Yet something is worrying you most of the day
You think much but it is driving you away

I had to draw single lesson from Great Ashoka’s episode
He had no hesitation in leaving even if highly rode
The fame and prosperity was earned out of bloodshed
This continuously hunted him and forced to lead for true religion

Help In Age

How does poetry help in old age?
How can something new and innovative be inscribed on page?
Does the mind evolve such idea to cope with new generation?
I thought answer was in yes and had very much relevant indication

There were many ups and down in the life
No peace in mind with lots of worries and full of strife
It has dragged you for entire length and brought to near end
You are free now to find a new set up with old friends

How to keep mind young from on going struggle?
You had long innings even it was termed as bubble
Now there is time to look back and assess the past conduct
How to bring them in for future use and effectively induct

It is not easy to dream about young girl and think of sweet moments
Surely people may laugh at you and even offer critical comments
Little suspicious movement may adversely affect your reputation
It is rather advisable now to work towards some contribution

I buy no such arguments and offer self for lovely and romantic nature
It doesn’t involve going round for lust but find out for nice future
All natural objects are there since centuries and invite your attention
You had so far neglected it and had not taken note for any mention

How to turn then growing age into charming young age?
To feel young or inject valuable ideas on golden pages
Remain with young environment and feel energetic
Of course yes, it is remedy for not to remain static

Even water may stagnate and spread the smell
The disease may spread and nothing goes well
It is better to keep moving with changing world
Not to remain with bye gone and try for new fold

I did it with quite ease and now enjoy
There is no more tension and spend the time with joy
I have learnt a new lesson and share it with readers
They are my strength and useful means to scale the ladder

I may not come up with their expectations
Yet can lead to the solving of some of the questions
It may provide clue to the burning desire
This is all more important from turning life into satire

The Season Greeting

I know the spring is coming
Not from the warmth I feel
But from the green that lives again
I know great people
Not because I admire that person
But because change is happened
In the people around

I know the summer will always be waited
Not from the memorable holiday
But from the time that quickly passes by
I know the precious life
Not because I have great faith
But because every breath I take
Is a gift

I know the autumn is a moment to think
Not from the enchanted falling leaves
But from the cold wind that following
I know the true strength
Not because the victory I gain
But because the painful sorrow
I learn to face on

I know the winter is not miserable
Not from the intricate shape of snow
But from the laugh of children playing
I know the beautiful world
Not because I’ve got what I want
But because there’s still many good people
Who offer warmth and kindness

War Destruction

Have you ever counted dead in battle field?
Rifles in hand and ground firmly held
Not given an inch of the holy mother land
Laid down lives while defending at the at the far end

How much time it needs to sweat in peace time?
Countless hours spent just for planning sometimes
With only view in mind that it may bleed less
When time comes for actual war to face?

Wars are not liked but forced on to fight
It may be imposed whether you are wrong or right
Boarders are put on alert with lots of inconvenience
Mass exodus of people can be seen both the sides at once

Nobody may want hostile atmosphere
Peaceful countries always avoid and truly fear
Country’s progress can be taken several years back
So much loss, future and economy at stake!

Life comes to standstill with no sign of immediate peace
Countries at war are in no mood to please
Initial thrust is at capturing as much land as possible
Problem may start later on with grave trouble

War may be over with third party mediation
Leaving behind misery and lots of questions,
Human losses and material destruction
Where from to receive now fresh instructions?

Civilian population as well as fighting soldiers
No one is pleased to feel happy either
Life here or there valued same for the bereaved families
As no one was ever expecting to be enemies

Deep distrust and hostility in mind is brewing
Divide of boundaries and unrest is clearly showing
Yet it is ceasefire call and must be brought back to normal
Normalcy is limping back after resumption people’s arrival

There is much to think about and assess in depth
How many families might have cursed and wept?
Even thought it is holy task of defending motherland
But something must be done to build confidence and remain as friends

A school life

The weather can be totally unpredictable
The human tendency like it is not at all acceptable
The rain is our main source of inspiration
We welcome it in its complete duration

There is tremendous change with the arrival of season
Initial days are quite enjoyed with good reasons
The children too like their initial school days
The parent to find good hope with rays

The school transform the character of child
They learn the basic elements and remain mild
They have innocence but do not act as fool
They learn a lot so long as they remain in school

It is lot more to gain and act
This is most unforgettable fact
It is always remembered in spare days
As it has taught us in many ways

There is enough time to focus on future
The last year shapes destiny and makes it sure
The time is approaching near to give farewell
Everybody is in fine mood to remember it well

The last moments are full of joy
They make it memorable and enjoy
The time and tide waits for none
The saying is well remembered by everyone

The school days are not forever
It has brief spell but to be spent there however
The long association makes them little upset
But the day for for departure is already set

It is natural to feel pain in separation
Everybody become so much emotional
So many incidences emerge in memory lane
As they have decided to leave the school by bus or plane

It may be altogether new experience
Now they have responsibility and enough sense
They may remain busy after leaving the busy life
The teacher has always remained them about edge of knife

They are needing good advice and direction
Whole future depends upon their action
The school platform has limited role
They may have to adjust with different poles

As the days are nearing to depart
They slowly gather to celebrate it in part
They may freely move and try to find
They will be out soon for the new world to find

It may be worrying them a lot
They fear fear and would not want to be caught
The life has become full of ups and down
Now they have to share the burden and own

Time may come soon to be separated
It will become past to be only related
It will remain as lost memory in one corner
They part of new life later or sooner

The path lay wide open to march
No one may lead you with torch
You were ably guided here by teacher
There you will be with respectable sirs

A living dead

I am considered as living dead
No desire to be assertive and in position to lead
I am moving in public and looked healthy
I am in strong position and considered wealthy too

I have stable position and earned good fame
I don’t know how but any how it came
I made it easy by remaining aloof
Any one can see it as clear proof

Yes deserve to be good human being
You should be determined and willing
Nothing can prevent you for doing so
If whole heartily you prefer and go

What is use of leading an aimless venture?
If it has no energetic thrust for future
Something has got to be done for its success
Life should be like an open page and allow the access

If in life if you have something to offer
People may accept it gladly and not differ
It is how you present your self in their eyes
There won’t be left any if, buts and why

I lacked complete will to usher in open domain
It wasn’t my way of doing and exclusively remains
A stigma or tendency to be away on selfish ground
A parallel which can never be easily understood or found

I am taking fresh air but leave it with pollution
Rudderless direction sans a strong resolution
Not willing to offer any thing of kind gesture
Have nourished nothing of that sort for sure

I shall continue to live in uncertainty
I have failed to understand its complete utility
I am no less than any selfish creature
I still live out of harmony for the future

There may be many more that may be same
I feel no guilty for being and feel the shame
I feel the purpose of being in this world as different
All my moves lead to the direction and seen as apparent

I shall see it as no draw back
As I consider myself very frank
It is great things to admit the lapses
With my being as exception nothing is going to collapse

Someone one may come forward and fulfill the mission
I consider it as greatest asset if you openly go for its admission
Not all the persons can deliver heroic performance
One look inwardly and have little glance

Life is glorious mission to be lively fully
I full realize it but can’t participate wholly
I have countless flaws and fears within
How far I can survive and long remains to be seen?

Futile Search

I have decided that there is nothing more to gain
Only to take care that it remains in tack and doesn’t go to drain
Lots of sequences emerged in mind and reminded me of hard struggle
There was complete peace in mind and spending rest of time without any trouble

I gave second thought over years of futile search
It had taken my complete life for the end to reach
One may take satisfaction in securing material comforts
To enjoy complete joy as if ship has anchored the port

What did force me to go in for materialistic world?
Where all happiness and joy remain feeling less and cold
It has artificial pull from friends and relatives
But I had remained careful in choice and very subjective

Even though I have everything at my disposal
People were ready to accept me with any proposals
I knew it was their love for my wealth and luxurious way
But some of the aspects were keeping me always away

My forefathers spent their life with meager sources
This was one of main reason and driving force
I had one concept very clear in mind
That I will go for all out hunt and find

The wealth and all fame needed for my satisfaction
I had made my views know to all and gave clear indication
I ventured into selfish world with only one aim
Complete reliance on self and something more to claim

By dong so, I didn’t sell my soul
I remained calculative but very cool
I employed honest ways and treasured the truth
That is the reason today I sit alone and feel worth

I Shall Regret

I shall regret for being straight forward
People call me, in fact, escapist and coward
I believe in my capacity to handle the situation
Otherwise it can definitely lead to unsolvable questions

I may be called even emotional fool
As I care too much for being helpful
I act like child to make them happy
Rush to the help and always stand ready

My personal life is in doldrums
I had happy moments and sweet dreams
But things didn’t turn up well to my expectation
Leading to break up with severance in relation

I spend restless nights with thoughts in mind as what to do?
How to handle it when they come up and are nearly true?
May be the situation not favor with my luck
Where ever I try but get bogged down or struck

I feel helpless and unsecured
No help is forthcoming or assured
I am man of hard resolve and dedication
So remain unperturbed without suffocation

I feel sometimes very weak from inside
The area of disagreement becomes very wide
Not all angles can be taken care off
Some where we have to start or stop

I am be impracticable in dealing
But it is aimed at to help for healing
Not money or material help is needed at that time
Few words of affection can create miracles sometimes

I may still be looked as undesirable
But I know my limit and feel capable
Can come out from blue and demonstrate will
But people may have to realize it still

I will not mind at all if they blame
The situation will still remain same
I may not change way of living and style
As I think it may certainly help me to walk for a mile

I shall frankly pray to almighty for causing pain
Knowingly or unknowing in their mind for my action
I think it may go off from their mind as time may pass
World may realize my endeavor in earnest with class

I am no philosopher but understand the normal values
People must get full attention or whatever has been due
In this troubled world who has the time to care for sentiments?
Life has taught them to be uncared for and pass adverse comments

A love and affection

Love and affection has tremendous strength
Meet the target on same wave length
So much joy to lead or to be led
To achieve the goal and never feel sad

Millions have learnt and changed course
Any layman can learn and change concourse
Only one good impetus and see the result
Deep sorrow and downfall with only one insult

Love is not confined to physical relation
It is humanly behavior with good indication
It can alter the destiny of a person
It is backed by many examples and reasons

It has always influenced the mankind
It shown the way even to the blind
No one has dared to defy the true love
They have always gained when drove back

Some one may take vow to prove the worth
The talent is available and there is no dearth
Still you need a driving force to back the initiative
Then the whole thrust is becoming subjective

What is force behind such powerful ambition?
Is it own skill, hidden urge or inhibition?
There is true intention for achieving something
This is only required and is considered a great thing

A person is tempted or led to believe
At home mother takes care to relieve
His complete burden and comes to rescue
He has been provided whatever is expected to review

The friends and relatives too provide some momentum
His ambitions are fuelled and allowed to mushroom
He has now open space to give realization to dream
He need not bother now for any fear or to scream

His personal life too carries enough of weight
It is greatly influenced by whether to go wrong or right
He need not run unnecessarily after and enter fight
He should complete domination by keeping them in sight

When you are engulfed with lots of problems?
You are not at all carried away by them
The goal is very much in mind with full of enthusiasm
He is never afraid of failure, sarcastic or criticism

Even if there is little hesitation to loose aim or sight
You may probably loose the interest with no delight
It will the be fruitless or aimless mission
You will have guilty conscience for admission

There has to be some main force behind to achieve
You must have capability and powerful urge to believe
This all will lead to some consolation or honorable achievement
It will satisfy you with some of memorable and pride moments

An ideal woman

I am ordinary woman on earth
Tired of so many things and waiting for death
I am very ordinary and look every inch committed
I am being troubled all the time and insulted

I may not be model but have beautiful heart
Beating as normal with loving art
You may not find any substance with material
But no one can dare to come out with denial

I am careless in my food habits
I can set, align and feel very fit
In short I am earthly woman
So caring and loving for own man

I have self respect for self and for others
I can devote complete life for a person who solders
Takes our care and lives so near
Yet I cast doubt and live with fear

I am what I am and would be same
I feel nothing bad and have any shame
How can I love a person for his adultery?
When it is made known to me about flateery

I have been asked to opine honestly
I see visible cracks on her face and feel earnestly
She has thought of taking divorce
Even thought it is imposed on her by force

No lady would prefer desertion
Another lady in life seems out of question
If some one tries to threaten it with severance
It must taken note of and deal it at once

She is independent lady with weak will power
I need to guide and show the way to her
He claims all the time about love but threatens with another relation
She has calmness of river and one can find in revelation

“Cut him short of your financial support”
“Don’t maintain any contact and have rapport”
I suggested to her it as real solution with heavy heart
As he was taking her for granted and using all cleverness or art

She has moon’s face and comes out genuinely
I fear she may be left behind to live lonely
She has yet long way to go in this horrible circle
Yet she has to think positive and come out of trouble

I pray for her settled life and career
She must find very good partner and stay as dear
We can’t make life as testing ground
It is really a bad test and does not look sound

I would want her to be strong
Nothing may go bad or very wrong
She may choose right way of course
Life is meant to surge ahead and not have any pause

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

Endless circle

Life is endless circle with full drive
No center but something to derive
No presence of God still to believe
No pain yet all efforts to relieve

Time will make them to be peaceful
Even in scarcity it will be made plentiful
Energy full harnessed and made resourceful
Life will be spent in remorse but meaningful

New born may not know the facts
We have to shape future for them and act
They may remain chaotic condition
We need to stop fuelling or providing ignition

Life is meant to be of full curves
If nothing then sure means to serve
To accept the new challenges and surge ahead
Nothing to seek or hide and certainly to lead

Morning may look pleasant with new arrival
It will be celebrated like festival or carnival
All will forget timely bitterness or cool relation
It will matter to rejoice with simple elation

It provides means for us to live with aim
We may not forecast or make tall claim
It will not matter for great concern
But some how may be expected good turn

We may have not made good success
But we would love to make full access
For our children so they cope and progress
They prepare for future and readily face

It takes full time to accept transformation
The risk factor may be high with full elevation
The children may change the entire scene
We can only expect gradual change to be seen

Even insects prefer better way of living
Small ants carry full load much to our disbelieving
Everyone tries hard to stand best in the field
Even if the position may not be favorably held

You may not get whatever you wanted
You may fail to achieve from the land after planted
The yield may be higher or not up to desired level
Still it may be worth while try to excel

You can stem the plant when tries to come out of root
You should nurture instead of curbing or putting the harsh foot
It may develop in the way we mould or desire
You should follow with instinct or burning fire

Create will power to sustain the adverse situation
It may provide some clue how to over come the question
There may lie the favorable solution to our comfort
It may sure lead us to reach safely at port

*Love the way you like to lead but try to read between lines*

Book to be read

How to read a book page when book it self is denied?
Book can remain mystery till last until it is supplied
Very friend of mine and great poetess thinks of seclusion
It is her and only her and absolutely no provision for any inclusion

How person can shy away from reality of life and basic facts?
You can’t be truly yourself until you come forward and act
It has got no relevancy in fact if you kill your self with conscience
You got to open up to face the people with modern science

“I am open to friendship but not to worldly talks of any pleasure”
“I am shy of everything and not in position to reassure”
This revelation stunned me for the absence of any real reason
Poet/poetess has to be versatile and accessible in any season

I detested her seclusion as if I was after oasis water
What steps or method should I employ for her opinions alter?
She was not t unreasonable but suffering from her own prison
Secluded voluntarily for no good reason and imprisoned

We have holy task of giving frank opinion through mighty pen
It may only be fruitful when people come round and offer then
Their unstinted love for the worthy creations and comment
Life may have its own rainbow and we have no reason to lament

Many readers come with the beautiful comment to label me as vampire
They term me as modern vampire and I enjoy it as gift of empire
What others say may not necessarily means an insult or derogation
It must be taken as not utter surprise but in form of congratulation

I had urge to read complete book pages from a renowned poetess
She was complete genius with full of talent and not stage actress
What needed was complete exposure in public to be judged?
I had no way to approach her for the fear of being misjudged

She realized the point behind and assured to shed the oblivion
I was really assured of very good player returning from pavilion
I don’t what may be worth point in recalling her real, presence
It was great loss to the poetry world for the talent and absence

I feel totally thrilled to find out friend in the promise of “may be”
They were the reassuring words of what actually would have been or should be
It was promise to come back to the poetic world with good skill
I considered it as emergence of powerful entry or strong will

As life nears

It is life cycle
We are helpless and unable
No say in ultimate end
To live with the world and befriend

Good work may be paid as life nears
Its destination and leaves only tears behind
Nothing to miss about your loss as it was open and frank
Everybody is in grief but pray the God and thank

You might have been good to people
You might proved your worth and be able
To deliver the work as promised
It might be hailed as achievement before you ceased

Not all get everything as desired in life
The life is full of challenge and also of strife
How you could do it is another aspect
This has only lead you to earn respect

Today people are laying wreath
It is great loss to them over your death
Not that there were no people of your caliber
But you were great success and hailed as climber

You were so close to their heart
This was no less achievement as an art
To get acclaim from people is a rare feat
People have to make great sacrifice and sweat

I evaluate this scene as one of most deserving and commendable
Your dreams have been realized and proved as sustainable
So far they were considered as unachievable and beyond human reach
You made it as reality as no one had promised as such

More than award

How long will you keep me waiting?
All troubles are in abundance and waiting
I keep staring at sky for some solution
I find no answer or formula for dilution

It is another name given for life journey
You may always be kept short of money
Sometimes it may be unwanted accidents
Sometimes attacked by near by residents

Love is repaid in form of rude attacks
Simple allegations to keep lot more at stakes
Life is simple made hell for nothing
I continue to pray for something

It is chosen path to remain committed
Slight mistakes in earnest always admitted
Not giving a single chance for people to resent
I avoid presence and try to remain absent

It is not running away from the scene
Sometimes you are implicated for being seen
It may be sheer coincidence for your being there
Still you will be forced to commit somewhere

Such events make you to think fresh
You are not a part still they try to trace
A tail leading to your involvement
You are harassed and feel sorry for such movement

How can you remain aloof?
Your innocence is not taken as proof
You are blamed for nothing
Even though you have said for everything

I have undergone trauma and suffered a lot
I have lost the war without being fought
I am not discouraged but feel so sorry
It adds to tension and worry

I can not leave the field as coward
I must think new and look forward
Even though I may not get reward
But the self satisfaction may be more than award

For Our Future

They were real kings
His Highness majesty who could sing
Turn the fortune and change the fate
They had everything at disposal to relate

They left it behind
For world to find
To help the poor
And worked from door to door

They were great and may be remembered
For their contribution and what they have offered
To live with peace and brotherhood
In life they practiced and understood

They were real supporter
To work for people as porter
Carry out their plight and pain
Into life of their own

With great vision and mission
The great Ashoka made frank admission
'Love and compassion is the only way'
Hatred must go away

We on our part
Can pick little from their humanitarian art
At least to show some compassion
If not deteriorate but build the good relation

We need stable world
To live with unison and in one fold
Not to speak with threatening posture
But to build world for our future
