In The Sky
High in sky
We are miles apart
Separated by seven seas but to seek start
You gave nod to seek union
The best way we could find was as companion
It was creating ripples
You were very kind and capable
Of taking decision
With firm determination
'Half way' I was excited at proposal
It had novel way to suggest an arrival
You had magic way of spreading wings
Beautiful songs of love to air and sing
You were riding on high waves
As it was you aim and craze
You were on highest mountain peak
Where I had no power to reach and speak
I will close the eyes and find her near
She may speak for hours without any fear
What a joy and happiness she was making to bear
And my god those words which she used whisper
I found her after years of separation
For seeking new approach and relation
She must speak her mind and come closer
She was and may remain dominant as ever
She haws opened up like fresh rose
I have no field to choose or suppose
She may spread further and offer refuge
I may not be then in position to refuse
She stands for joy and happiness
I have seen brightness on her face
A close fulfillment but never to claim
And firm resolve to share even the blame
She was and may remain always dear
Whether in embrace or in rear
She is star and always high in sky
I can only look at her and try

Cheek To Cheek
Irving berlin
Heaven, Im in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When were out together dancing cheek to cheek
Heaven, Im in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gamblers lucky streak
When were out together dancing cheek to cheek
*:
Oh I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesnt thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I dont enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
**:
Dance with me, I want my arms about you
The charm about you
Will carry me through
To heaven, Im in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When were out together dancing cheek to cheek

Precious gift
Love is precious gift from almighty
It is in different form with variety
Son to mother and mother to kids
All with certain messages and firm leads
It has its unique ways to bear
Its beat you can clearly hear
No one must have any doubts or fear
It will always give happiness and not tears
Some one said “I love you”
Reply I heard was “I miss you”
I thought she was referring gone week
When I had waited for her to come and seek
She has busy schedule on hand
Even though she is close friend
She politely said no as program was full
I had to sit back and observe it as fool
For her it was nice way of telling” I love you”
It will be meant nothing short of “I miss you”
She will stick to the words and keep the promise
But won’t commit and act as wise
It is nice of any woman to acknowledge
When she has understood the meaning of age
The spring and autumn has clear message
She has to open and write on new page
That will speak of her entire aim
Many may come forward and claim
Express the desire to have firm bond
She is beautiful fish in small pond
The world may appeal her from different angle
She has to come up with firm proposal
Yes or no may compel her to take her own decision
As life is meant to be spent with great precision

My passion
For talks, not only days
but nights will be less,
years may pass by,
but never be the end,
No sea side, no public place,
Neither garden nor big palace,
Even not the country side more,
No hill top or no sea shore,
You are so sad,
because news are bad,
Your beloved is sick,
Not able to walk even with stick,
as the rose is in flower,
Bath is best in shower;
best friends may be fewer,
good shows draw less viewers
'Thoughts' most so in common,
Before I pen them she wrote it down,
expression in thoughts and most in action,
but still remain so calm and no more reaction,
Will she be same again?
Time may not be same for certain,
before it can dry and run so out,
something should be read about,
Will I be put to shame again,
uses words of respect often and often,
dear I find loss and no gain
Only to find out way to regain,
Should she show me face often?
Eyes may not sparkle again,
Face may reveal not any more,
Should I ask more and before?
She argues' face too may be veiled'
eyes shut but may not smile,
lips sealed and speak no more,
Actions only and words so sour,
Will my age be given and added?
Will his beloved be back again?
Fortunes should smile and no more pain,
what do I expect? Efforts not in vain,
Seven high seas and distance more,
How to come still next to your door?
Should I rush with clipped wing?
Against the odd and high speed wind,
Still the situation is not so rife,
what more role left in life?
Fulfillment or hollowness to make her wife,
Edge will remain edge of knife

In Heaven
“The marriage is decided in heaven” legend goes on
Very holy, sacred one and totally unknown
No one knows when it will take place
It may turn into reality without any base
You need to whisper gently
Words must be spoken silently
Only eyes speak and tongue remain closed
Powerful thrust but feelings never disclosed
How can you invite when gripped with fear?
How long can you withstand and bear?
Some end must be put to an excitement
When it becomes known with the commitment
The bride walks behind in silence
The face looks bright and lines not tense
The Whole world is under the feet
When she may walk down to meet
It means a lot when hand is extended
All kind s words and not meant to bee offended
It is proposal with seriousness
Complete in agreement to remain together and face
I wish all happiness in new union
As it is time to express, show the trust to companion
Taken pledge not to commit any breach
As it will be long inning and widely stretched
It may be nice to think about future course
Care must be taken to see that it doesn’t turn into curse
No one may give helping hand in personal affairs
As it will be construed as improper and unfair

I Went High
I went high
Only to fly
Touched the peak
But felt unable to speak
She caught my hand
To show as if to be a friend
Pushed back to the ground
To dream about beautiful end
She is sky
So you can only try
You can't touch
But only in dream as such
She is willing
But her silence is killing
She says 'no' and 'yes'
But where and how to trace
She is lovely and beautiful
But may not make me successful
She has kind smile
I have to wait meanwhile
She may come round
Only to be found
So near and whisper
'Come on dear' I am near
Hear me and act
This is fact
I love you but can't
So feel no sad and react
I can give you my wings
You can relax and sing
Remember me and my face
There is lot more yet in race

Two bright eyes
Bare eyes shine in night,
look so powerful and bright
Keep staring but not made known,
Seem they are made for my own
Say not words but also not hide,
just smile broad with eyes wide,
convey deep feelings with no regret,
bright and shining eyes speak not yet,
why close eyes alone?
and face not covered,
So eyes when shut,
face may reveal,
You close the eyes,
life come to an end,
glitter and shine,
smile peters out,
find me so close even not near,
distance more but mind fear,
eyes shut but separation bear,
Near to come is idea to cheer,
You may say you are around, ,
even go round but not found
with steps so gentle on ground,
little it heard with no sound,
Oh, two eyes,
just face unveil,
lower it down to neck,
Find me there just to check,
Eyes may shine,
face may reveal,
wounds may heal,
love may look real,

Why do I seek more
Why do I seek more when it is not sure?
Why I go for all out result when it is totally unclear?
What does this speak of when comes to real term?
It speaks of sick mind affected by deadly germ
I sought after all means to reach the end
I did not distinguished between foes and friends
It was clear to me that relation should not come in the way
I have drawn the lines and far as possible kept away
It does not speak well of an individual
When one is intentionally playing dual
It is very dangerous and later on resented
The tact is not appreciated and consented
It hardly maters and attains any importance
If it varies in essence and in substance
For silly things it may be called as mad steps
For bigger things it may be termed as slaps on face
It is human tendency to seek in abundance
It has remained weakness and clear stance
The thrust for such thing is apparently visible
So many try to pretend but practice it as invisible way
It is good on individual’s part to struggle very hard
By doing so he has to always remain alert and on the guard
Nothing may be had in easy and simple manner
Though it may come later or sooner
So one must know the capability and its worth
It should be borne in mind and looked forth
The efforts should be made when something is very sure
Only to remain desirous of anything is not sure way to cure
We can draw our opinion by analyzing the result
We may face reversals much to our discomfort and insult
It is expected in every field and one should be totally ready
The success chance are evenly predicted and remains steady
The casual approach sometimes may prove very deadly
Since it is performed with half heart it will be felt badly
It is neither win or loss but worthless enterprise
It will be aborted in advance much to our surprise
It is nice feeling when success rate is high
The immense happiness makes us to fly
The life missions seems to have attained
The thrust is also in order and properly maintained
If one takes it as his normal function
There won’t be any regret for any malfunction
He will be ready for any kind of eventuality
He may make it sure not to employ any kind of duality

Am unable to understand
Unseen should be seen
I am eager and keen
So far where have you been?
You are symbol of queen
I have adored and admired
I feel exhausted and tired
An end of road seems difficult
Despite earnest efforts still no result
I tried o probe your mind
I failed to understand and find
You were there symbol of love and very kind
You were unsure yourself and did rescind
You loved to be seen around
The joy and happiness always found
It perfectly matched and looked sound
It was gaining momentum and held the ground
All of sudden you preferred to disappear
Left me alone to live with agony and to bear
I wished some sweet words from her to hear
She stood all the times to me very dear
That did not happen as miracle
It was difficult moment or cycle
I couldn’t guess or believe
It added to tension but not relieved
It gave me little insight to guess
She appeared very beautiful in dress
She stood as symbol of love and peace
I had no control over feelings to release
It is saddest ever unforgettable moment
I was not in position to comment
The air too stopped its cool movement
I stood motionless to offer any vent
Love is inseparable part of life and must stay
It must rule over heart and have clear say
No one can or must break it for any reason
It is sign of good human and as nice person
I was for sure that it may find suitable answer
Not all may be lucky to enjoy it however
I had no reservation to seek few favor
It was her choice to show discomfort and disfavor
She had preference and own reason to remain in oblivion
It was my turn now to go back seek place in pavilion
The race was over and result was openly known
It was well judged move and decision of her own
The love birds fly together to find new nests to seek refuge
They may lay eggs and allow no one to come near by or refuse
It is strong zeal to stay together for any times to come
Life is to be spent in happiness when they come back home
I don’t want to think about the mystery that how it did take place
I had unbearable pain that no body could take it away or replace
I may have to suffer it whole life with not a single word to utter
I will have to keep it in strong heart wall and the shutter

transcendental Happiness
perfect happiness is really hard to attain
trust from other people is too difficult to gain
How can I be happy? How can i make myself in joy?
Can you just stay by my side? my darling, my boy?
supreme jubilee is too long to seek
we can't have our own happiness if we don't start to voice out! to speak
we can't blame people for being lazy, being timid!
they can't attain nirvana if they are so stupid!
in my own, happiness is attained by people who are giving and sharing joy to others
remember, no one can find the secret chambers!
Chambers that leads us to nirvana! to paradise
be responsible to find the joy! that's my best advice
being happy is one of my priority!
solve for my never-ending insanity
perfect happiness is there on god's hands
we can have it if we obey his commands!
perfect happiness comes in most tragic situation
like i said, happiness is hard to find! I still need to seek for solution!
what have i done? ah! help me, please!
help me to build new histories!
yes! i can sense the success! the happiness' progress!
now i know what it feels, your touch, your caress!
eternal happiness is found when i'm with you!
when your coming, doesn't know what to do!

Own world
I love you from bottom of my heart
I may try to be cleaver and look very smart
But never dreamt of hurting you slight
Missed you always when you went out of sight
I have my own world to live in
You may flew in to win
You may wish to pin high hopes
Though it may be dangerous to walk on ropes
You may make endless plea and build the castles
Murmur in mind and continue to make sound like whistles
All thoughts to remain in dream ad come true
Remain to be faithful till end without any clue
Neither any one can make me feel sorry
Nor it can cause extra burden or worry
I am totally to my self and remain secluded
All happiness are there with me and included
I shall come to you like high speed wind
You may not be able to judge or find
I shall remain invisible to make any imprint
You may not have slight idea or any hint
I would love to make you endlessly wait
From down to dusk alert and straight
You may loose patience and start to hate
It will be then out of hand to realize it late
Express it with full faith and resolve
Speak with firmness in eyes and solve
Get on to the target with simple yes
Make honest bid without making it mess
I am in dreamland sailing with happiness
Here is the place where you feel oneness
Complete match with words and action
Can’t find difference with any reaction
I shall not waste a single moment
There will be complete harmony with movement
I shall die hard to live with you
This is my desire and it is very true
Come and realize it to full extent
Don’t express unhappiness and give a vent
It has to be the entire time cherished dream
It has to be precious gift given by Him
I shall be deeply hurt if it is suddenly missed
It will be impossible to be found and traced
Great opportunity will be lost for ever
We shall breathe our last to be found never
I shall continue to enjoy in dream land
I see blessing in it from holy Hand
How is that I have come into being?
I am seen as her queen and he being a king
Bless us for our lovely wish
I swim in water like small fish
I may take out head for fresh air
Go back to continue in deep water

For Female
I shall be riding on high crest waves
In normal circumstance no one would dare
Yes but as woman I have different basic
I can’t be subdued by men flaks with any logic
For any of my action it has been questioned
Any faults or lacuna is always mentioned
All dirt has been hurled in open to disgrace
I am not prepared to lie down and face
I shall prefer to remain in forefront
I shall bravely face and bear the brunt
How can a gender become just handicap?
When entire set up and laid an intelligent trap?
They can lie and still remain on top of the mountain
Talk highly with pride of their achievements and maintain
Highest degree of moral standard and proclaim
Where as ladies suffer most in cruel hands and share blame
I for one may swim against such odd
I have been exposed for number of years and told
Women are meant to be obedient and submissive
I have revolted against such thought and refuse to give in
It is not that river path can’t be altered
It is also not impossible for truth to be uttered
It is as simple as plain sky
I have no reason to feel embarrassed and shy
I shall not wait for rebirth
Let it be unrealistic and meet with the death
Yet some form of defiance is need of the hour
We can’ think of good relation 2without being little sore

No to sorrow
Can little sweetness be added to sorrow?
Can sadness be not pushed aside for tomorrow?
When both are interwoven to each other
Why to think of them more and bother?
Pure or true love can never deceive
Warmth and feelings we always receive
Best ideas emanate from within and peace be conceived
Does that speak of real intention as goal is perceived?
Let love speak and not remain or confine within
Eyes must reveal and nothing should remain in
It is very much essential and must prevail at last
Acceptance should be made known very fast
I must acknowledge it as God sent gift
Why to have in life more tussles and rift?
We should never change stand and shift
Switch over from one to another should be very swift
I am prepared to forgo prestige and pride
Why in love it should be sought and hide?
Simple admission of true feelings and no guilt
Trust the opinion and strong foundation to be built
I shall seek no favor in return
Let my love grow and cause no concern
Earnest desire must be explained in turn
Let there be real union without any heart burn
May be in my life today is the happiest day
I will continue to seek and have my way
Let her remain true to her conscience and say
Never will we be separated, come what may!
Things may prove difficult if it turns out differently
Both have to think it honestly and approach separately
Time may run out us and not allow us to unite
Passion may remain passion only and within ignite
We may take steps to see that it doesn’t turn ugly
It may be too early also to forecast it so early
Still it will remain our top priority to tackle the issue
We must get in turn what ever is destined to be due
We will not be cowed down with by unexpected events
We will face it bravely when it is made known very next moment
We will not allow it to happen and take us completely by surprise
But all possibilities are definitely there and bound to arise
We shall from now on shed no tears and face the reality
We shall stand firm and come up bravely for any eventuality
It has to be faced with as if dealing with any of the disaster
We must carve out the way and destiny as done by master

My passion n views
When you meet old friends, tears may rush in
Heart becomes heavy with lovely scene
You find no words to express and speak
It used to have been for days and weeks
For sweet memory and talks, not only days
but nights with long hours will be less
years may pass by and there will not be any trace
but at the end you may the worries on the face
Nothing will appeal not even sea side or public places
Neither big gardens with flowers nor big palace,
Not even the country side with green fields any more
No hill top with white snow or no sea beaches or shore,
You go into deep memory and feel so sad,
when news reaching to you are really bad
Your beloved is on death bed and very sick,
Not able to talk and walk even with stick,
As the rose is considered king among flowers
Natural bathe under fountain fall is best in shower;
Best friends are counted on fingers and may be fewer,
like good shows may draw less viewers
'Thoughts' were between us most so in common
Before I could pen them she wrote it down
Expression in thoughts and most in action
still remained calm and offered no reaction
will she be true to her promises and same again?
I am sure time may not be same for certain,
before it can dry and run out,
something should be done and read about
will I be put to shame and face it again?
She uses words of respect often and often,
I smell rat in game and find loss and no gain
force me to think and to find out way to regain,
Should she talk to me and show the face often?
Eyes may not to be same to sparkle again
Face may not reveal composure any more,
had I insisted upon and ask more this before?
She argues' on face that stands veiled'
eyes are always closed and happiness can’t be hailed
Face can’t bear smile and lips are sealed
Deep wounds are there but can’t be healed
Can my age be given to her and added?
Will his beloved be back in her fold again?
Fortunes should smile and offering no pain,
what do I expect? Efforts should not go in vain,
I have to cross seven high seas and reach
How to come closer to shore or beach?
Should I rush to her with clipped wing?
Against the odd and high speed wind,

I love
I love my creative work and simple friend
They may be from different background and trend
They seem to be gifted with lot of tact
I feel so small before them as matter of fact
I open my self to the close and intimate
Of course their entry in life is very late
I openly admit the fact and state
I accept them with love and never hate
It has bridged my sentiments with them
My endless love flows out of the stem
They unseat me from my position and claim
Very close acquaintance but never put blame
I feel nothing without them but offer no reaction
My eyes always speak for them with action
Young girls come so easily with frank admission
I have no option but to grant the permission
They may go in for any relation they prefer
I need not to stress for it and refer
One gets so much attached with long relation
It is true feeling that leads to the elation
I love to react cautiously with affirmation
It more painful to part with when results in negation
On line relation is not that difficult to maintain
Only you got to remain vigilant and sustain
They may be seen always on line and very active
Laden with problems and seemingly very passive
They may fall easily in line and open up
This is the only link that makes them runner up
Temptation is never fanned by the flame
Once if you are in then don’t feel shame
It produces sweet melody in song
It may remain for long even if you go wrong
I had surrendered and completely fallen through
It was only to her response “how are you”?
I was carrying red hot volcano in burning pot
I asked “will you be positively responding to it or not?
Eyes can’t hide it and tongue can’t speak
I have lost the nerve and become very weak
Slowly I breathe the air and painfully leave
Who to be blame for and made to believe

Paths Of Happiness
If the path is beautiful, check where it leads?
But if the destination is beautiful-
Don’t worry about the hardships, keep moving.
There is no path that leads to happiness;
But happiness itself is the only path, goes every where.
Continuous efforts- not strength or intelligence, fetches happiness.
Happiness and excuses do not work together,
If we think about excuses, forget about happiness;
And if we want happiness, forget excuses.
Money can’t buy happiness,
But it is less painful to cry in a palace, than in a hut:
So don’t insult happy moments.
Happiness is like sunlight,
It shines in the corner of the heart,
And offer every morning fresh hopes.
It is very difficult to give happiness,
But try to at least erase somebody’s sorrow,
Like a good eraser.
Whenever offered with half glass of milk,
Call it half full and not half empty,
Happiness should be enjoyed with what we have,
But not reject due to what we do not have.
Happiness without positive attitude is merely destiny,
But happiness with a positive attitude is called, achievement;
So try to be a happy achiever in life.
Soft speech, clean heart, calm eyes, strong hand, focused mind:
And firm determination, with God’s love and blessings,
Always make us a happy winner, so always be a happy winner.

To a Friend
I had made promise
To be friendly and nice
As her name stood well for name
I sincerely praised her and never blamed
Today she has her birthday
I wish it to become shining and special day
All relatives and friends may be wishing
I need my silver button to brass with polishing
What would is ay to her?
A bouquet in hand to offer
With wishes of long life
Peaceful and sans strife
Smile costs nothing
It conveys beautifully something
If you can offer little happiness
That may reflect cleverly on your face
I would wish you to be friendly
Never a thought in your mind to reveal sadly
That can be real wish on this very beautiful day
Keep always in mind of never going away
Not eyes, face or language may speak
They may only infuriate and make you weak
Just little gesture may make all that beautiful
Life then would be so lovely and purposeful
I may not like stars and moon
As they may disappear soon
But you may remain for long
Even if sometimes I may go wrong
Let roses not fade away from the scene
As it will be auspicious day to be seen
You may shine in your beautiful dress
A lovely smile to be watched on face
Smile you always bear and make it as habit
Many good things mar revolve around your orbit
You shall remain there as dominating force
I shall look with smiles at you of course
Wish your happiness may never fade
You may have all the way clear to trade
What you may not find always gone year
I shall wish you loudly in your ears

In waiting
Where is she for me in waiting?
I feel she is all the hating
Forget about good feeling and dating
Al the tie she is updating
I too think deeply about her
She may be for me there
Yet something bites her in mind
I got to probe and really find
May be I am dark complexioned
All the time queries and questioned
She has yet to come on ground
Feel the warmth and love to be found
I made her to feel at home
She is always welcome
Yet something hunts her mind
Even though distrustful but very kind
I speak less but express
In my eyes Love tail finds trace
Where is need to speak?
With her support I am at peak
Now she may speak truth
Will see straight and ask no proof
I have to put tight embrace around
The love is never to be lost but found

When the Bush Begins to Speak
They know us not in England yet, their pens are overbold;
We're seen in fancy pictures that are fifty years too old.
They think we are a careless race - a childish race, and weak;
They'll know us yet in England, when the bush begins to speak;
When the bush begins to speak,
When the bush begins to speak,
When the west by Greed's invaded, and the bush begins to speak.
'The leaders that will be', the men of southern destiny,
Are not all found in cities that are builded by the sea;
They learn to love Australia by many a western creek,
They'll know them yet in England, when the bush begins to speak;
When the bush begins to speak,
When the bush begins to speak,
When the west by Greed's invaded, and the bush begins to speak.
All ready for the struggle, and waiting for the change,
The army of our future lies encamped beyond the range;
Australia, for her patriots, will not have far to seek;
They'll know her yet in England when the bush begins to speak;
When the bush begins to speak,
When the bush begins to speak,
When the west by Greed's invaded, and the bush begins to speak.
We'll find the peace and comfort that our fathers could not find,
Or some shall strike the good old blow that leaves a mark behind.
We'll find the Truth and Liberty our fathers came to seek,
Or let them know in England when the bush begins to speak;
When the bush begins to speak,
When the bush begins to speak,
When the west by Greed's invaded, and the bush begins to speak.
