Just keep them guessing
I was called upon to deliver lecture on morality
They had full confidence on my capability
They knew I will be well prepared to give justice
I was contacted for this purpose within short notice
It is easy to speak theoretically on any subject
As it has nothing to do practically so no one may object
It seems exercise in futility as it involves no punch
People may not hear it attentively and go for lunch
The so called intelligent people may share the views
It may use high standard of words to be understood by only few
Since it is meant to be used for mass consumption
Everything is spoken well prepared and in assumption
I am not the authority or well conversant of such subject
You will find quotes and unquote for and against to inject
It requires immense sense of skill to hold the audience
They have to be entertained with fine oratory and at variance
I was first hesitant to go for such important topic
It requires moral courage to be used with logic
It is not mere repeation of words already known
But presentation of deep study seemingly unknown
It has been know to all that this is just an eye wash
In normal life it may appear suddenly and vanish like flash
Such lectures don’t cut much ice and help to less extent
But some happiness is noticed with little movement
Every one wants to enjoy life but with difference
They try to gain from any source and draw the inference
The hidden thrust is so extensive that some need is felt
In some of the Seminars it is discussed at length and dwelt
It is not matter for open discussion but the facility to avail
The need arises only where some of the confusion prevails
A person with high stand of knowledge can put across
Some of the aspects with precision without any deviation or loss
Internally I was in great pain and anguish
Though I was confident to speak and finish
It did hurt my conscience only for one reason
I was not true to cause and the right person
It is absolutely wrong on your part to preach
Advocate such a thing where you have no reach
It is not simply a gospel teaching with authority
There you are a priest or monk and known celebrity
You have sizable community to follow
You may deny some existence and d don’t allow
The case is different with me as public figure
I must speak with authority and make it sure

Take You On Peak
There are so many things besides
Deep meaning and insight provides
Flowers and their fragrance spread all over
Even if provided no cover
Do roses need any introduction?
Do the words need any recognition?
Absolutely no if they are properly conveyed
If not then people may guess and stay dismayed
Words have power and strength
It has variety and can cover any length
Spoken or silent carry same meaning
Where it goes then there is point in winning
Words are reflection of stable mind
No where you may have deviation to find
The work is done as per promises made in words
There is no going back but only to look towards
It may have desired effect
Even if not put into act
There is somewhere hidden fact
Words make it forceful with tact
Rest of the things eyes score
People can read clearly therefore
Face and mouth may act together
There is only adding of feather
Love the words as they are spoken
They are not mere gesture or token
Once out then can't be taken back
As there may be lot more at stake
Think and then speak
It may otherwise make you weak
Speak firmly and then stick
These all quality may take you at the peak

A response to inner call
Did you ever respond to inner conscious call?
Did it help you from any possible fall?
Was that just divine hint not to follow any dictates?
It is nicely understood but barred by apathy to indicate?
When you are driven or influenced by external forces?
You become helpless and can not choose clear course
There prevails confusion and have double state of mind
It never clears uncertainty and person is totally blind
It is all said in earnestness to follow conscience
It is in other sense no to all with complete defiance
Not to act in haste and to obey what seems to be true
It may be critical test but one has to pass through
How can one clearly see the obstacles free broad way?
What makes him to move boldly and push it away?
Neither is it the result of one day experience or habit
Nor is the out come of clear conscience or gambit
When an individual is not responding to any temptation
It can be rightly observed with responsive indication
It is acknowledged with happiness internally
There is tremendous response expressed orally
The person himself knows the real truth and enjoy
He may not reveal it to all or employ decoy
It is inner strength that drives him to consider positively
This will give him leverage above others and deliver decisively
Where is the time to know self and avoid criticism?
The world seems colorful as seen through prism
It compels to see us what is not really a fact?
Any normal man may fall for it and unpleasantly act
One can remain truthful to the least possible extent
This may give him little strength to know the contents
He will not falsely lead to believe what is not desirable?
This little piece of awareness makes his move admirable
“To know self is to know God”words are inscribed
They have hidden meaning and need not be described
Person is feeling guilty conscience when fully exposed
He may be down with bad name when trust is not reposed
We claim to be an intelligent animal
Our show is pathetic and very dismal
Even animals act in some kind of attachment
We totally act indifferently and come out with statement
It may be wise on our part to act true
It is not easy but difficult too
It may straightway drive us to the extreme corner
No one may like our action and term us as sinner

A Beautiful Reflection
I used to stare at beautiful figure
Why I preferred it? Am not quietly sure
It was something I felt deserved our attention
Nice words of praise with very good mention
I considered my self as one of the most handsome
This view may be shared by not all but some
It is not bad to feel good for self and enjoy
It may be good reason to feel happy with joy
I may stand in front of mirror and quietly murmur
Look body from all the angles and whisper
How much thrill it used to send that I don’t know?
But it was definitely self elation matter anyhow
I was laughed at in many public places
I will look at smart and beautiful faces
My close friends may come near and cut jokes
I will scorn them to shut the unnecessary poke
T was hurting me if someone to comment badly
I will not accept it lightly and think over it sadly
It was matter of deep insult cause for worry
It was anguish for me but surely felt very sorry
Who will not like few words of praise?
You will step out if few more good words are raised
You will be inflated with air in body
It will be known as proud moment for anybody
I think I am not exception in this race
There may be lots of people with such case
They will be suffering from personal syndrome
They will be living in their on world and feel very much at home
I knew from outset that beauty may fade away
Still it was necessary to feel in special way
Not all people are gifted with fine and attractive figure
They seem to think to have bright prospectus with future
If one lives under false impression and feel same
He must be prepared to share some blame
Many may not like the outer beauty and comment adversely
Still it will be his cool temperament that will not accept it as remorse
The mirror may reflect exactly what you are
The person may know reality for being how far?
It will be best suited to his temperament
The gain will be seen from positive point at any moment
It is good not to be carried away
You will not be in position to have permanent sway
Any natural object has to die or perish
It is quite to have close finish

Need to be told
If you need to be told
Then don't try to be bold
You will be like any other person
May come in life and go as seasons
Person should be able to take his own decisions
That should not vary and must be with precision
It trusts self first then thinks of others actions
There is no fun in offering any kind of reactions
You are your own judge and come to the conclusion
Every word is spoken with care and without any confusion
There is no withdrawal as it has been carefully considered
At no stage there is second thought and differed
This is how the stubbornness comes in life at later stage
It is with experience and coming up of the age
You are shedding off the uncertainty and come out of the cage
The confidence is reflected as new words are printed on page
Let actions speak louder than words
You may find it easy to look and go forward
You may have full satisfaction of what you contemplated
Every action is thought of and fully related
An individual has to be master of his own destiny
This fact might not been realized by many
There is hidden message behind it with some purpose
One must always keep mind free without keeping any grudge

A human brain
The only mistake committed by almighty
then realizing the mistake made already
the brain to be used at different level
from childhood till the admission in school
The young age was enjoyed with much fun fare
not to know much about but still to go somewhere
where is the time to think about any existence?
so it is the stage to deny any such presence
I have heard people saying about non belief
no existence of God at the time of receiving relief
Stand with folding hand to express no gratitude
this is how they express ignorance with different attitude
They think it was not a divine act
the birth is merely a naked fact
there is purely scientific reality
it has nothing to do with any morality
The person can shape his own destiny
though he may have to cross the hurdles many
only personal skill may come to the rescue
by dint of ability he may have his share due
unwise are those who see nothing beyond eye
how the wings can be tested if one does not fly?
how fruits can be enjoyed without earnest try?
let us understand the fact and do not feel shy
human nature is such to think beyond line
everything does not seem quiet and fine
all secrets and anxieties just remain hidden
we may be called wise but internally laden
There is no end to quest
it can be utilized to its best
let us not forget about the rest
this is the time and crucial test
Only one stroke and finally coming to the sense
it may compel him to believe in presence
who brings sun shine and cool nights?
has he ever tried to know as matter of right?
The animals do not think much about fate
they have no brain to speak or state
still they are not ungrateful as we are
think negatively and stay very far
We are blinded by materialistic scene
such progress by human being was never seen
it is merely attributed to human skill
no divine power had anything to fill
It is not received well with any logic
certainly there is reason to believe the magic
it is almighty that has brought us on earth
why no one is capable of stopping the death?
I shall go by and stand for the standard argument
I have to enjoy every available opportunity and moment
Let us not be equated with or disrespectful to only one
who is there to see everything and take care of every one

A word imagery
It is nice to translate imagery
It is fine blend of summary
It may come In the form of words
It may be fine flow to take it forward
Is it pure means to praise some one?
Or simple oratory or words for none?
It is likely to bring some one to the core
To draw the inference and come closer
It is likely to raise the status
There is great feeling and new impetus
Some one has occupied your mind
You are trying to woo but no means to find
It may ease the life for all times to come
The change is all of sudden and welcome
It is regarding the holy union for future
The words fulfill it and make doubly sure
How to explain it when it is specially a woman?
It has always proved difficult for simple man
He may try to prove it as much as he can
He may try all means so not to miss the train
It is intelligent way of approaching
It may bring new hope each morning
There may still be and look different
It may matter less as it is transparent
Each word may speak of high volume
There is no scope for doubts to assume
One has to grasp it correctly and go ahead
Life may look easy and worthwhile to lead

Invalidate.
The truth is like democracy
An ideal we aspire to
But it seems we can't agree.
Nor are we ever likely to.
What's true for me is not for you
What you believe I can't accept.
We hold opposing points of view.
Each one deserving of respect.
We tend to see democracy.
As rule by the majority.
Subjected to close scrutiny
It proves to be a fallacy.
Someone must wield authority.
Though sadly there are very few.
Who have the capability
and even fewer willing to.
Assume responsibility.
So we make do with second best.
But is that true democracy.
I have to say I'm not impressed.
By Ideals which I don't believe.
That we cannot possibly achieve.
One truth and true democracy.
As long as men think differently.
To tell the truth I find it odd
That men who claim to speak for God.
Can hold so many different views
Infinite in variety.
The being who created me
Saw fit to set me free.
No priest has the authority
To take away my liberty.

Speak With Kindness (Or Do Not Speak At All)
speak with kindness,
or do not speak at all.
speak not of judgement,
you are not the judge.
speak not of salvation,
let your living be your scriptures.
speak not of scriptures,
let your actions be your holy book.
speak not as apostle or teacher,
speak as a human being.
speak not of god,
then god will speak through you!
speak not as a man,
for you are woman too.
speak not with hateful malice,
for love does not work that way.
speak not as a prophet or seer,
speak as compassion made flesh.
speak not of morality,
speak of connection.
speak not of authority,
the tree and the leaf have just as much.
speak not of holiness,
for all that lives be holy.
speak with kindness...
or do not speak at all!

A love to self
I love to my self first
it will remain till last
i shall stick to my own views
I know it may be appreciated by only few
It is not easy to convince
As I don’t mix the words or mince
I believe in true presentation
It is with mind set and orietation
I have believed in lords
I had true belief in gospel or words
I never questioned the wisdom of sprit
In darkness also I found dim light
I saw many curves on the way
From hill tops, it looked as if taking us away
This showed how the life can be difficult!
How to manage for self and try to rebuild
I believe in practacing at home
Words with action is always welcome
One can perform well on his on door
If that can’t be then one may look very poor
I have to surrendered to clear conscience
There was infighting to choose its presence
He good will has prevailed and almost stayed
I was never discouraged or dismyed
He has set my course in right direction
I have no authority to question his action
I act as per own conscience and inner call
I may not regret even if it invites down fall
He is my guide and philosopher
I am not wise or thinker
He may give call from the distance
I will have to obey and act at once
So I trust self than anybody else
It is not arrogance but mere good sense
Practcising on self is not at all to be condemned
It is better confine to self than stand damned

A sense of deep feeling
I had the sense of deep feeling
Had strong urge and of course willing
But from inside something was killing
I could not decide whether it was end or beginning
It is strong human bond that forces for something
You might have got all or desired for everything
Still it needs warmth and special relation
If so then you are kind hearted person with such indication
It is not matter for open discussion
But make sure of it before having any passion
You must give fair trial for its durability
Such relation may only last long if has fine quality
Just pose a question where you are loved person
If so then what are the most probable reasons
Do you love your self than any body else?
Or is it simply infatuation or feelings very false?
There is no fun in rushing for quick result
You draw flake and sometimes insults
There are likely chances of failure
So make it reasonable to feel very sure
The intense feeling and eyes do the rest
You can read it and feel it as best
It has its own merits and demerits
You make sure where does it fit
The love is not a feeling to be prepared in advance
It takes place all of sudden and at once
No one knows when and why it will happen?
It is bound to take place if not desired even
It ahs fair chance of succeeding at any stage
Only it requires coming at the right age
As it is writing of words on new page
It is definitely a delicate and critical phase
One must make it sure that it is blessings
Not a single aspect must go unnoticed or missing
It is beautiful stage and must be felt immensely
It is God gift and must be treated as heavenly
It may have little sex angle or body attachment
But it is deep feeling with glorious moment
Some of the moments run along with mutual consent
But over all impact is understood and felt
I shall consider it as holy union
There is nothing wrong to seek companion
It is after all a strong bond with passion
One is ready for its acceptance and admission
I shall not deny its existence
The whole outlook is changed in its presence
You are stopped from doing something bad
Denial of its role may make you unstable and sad

To Live For You
Yes my Lord, I know what to do, and that Lord is to live for you,
To live for you wherever I go, even in places that I do not know.
For all my tasks at any place, are guided always by your Grace,
Grace that will see me through, everything that I’m called to do.
Your arm Lord is not too short, and this I can personally report,
For you supply the needed power, always in that darkest hour.
Sufficient is your Grace for me, as you always lead men to see.
When it seems darkest Lord, you always seem to open a door.
I just need to go about my day, walking down the narrow way,
Not turning to the left or right, as I keep you Lord, in my sight.
As it’s the times that I look away, that I stumble along the way.
But you always take my hand, and help me to regain my stand.
And in these times you testify, about your Power from on high.
Lifting me up when I’m weak; without words to men you speak.
You speak in every situation, affirming your words of revelation,
That you’ll always see me through, every place you take me to.
I just simply need to follow you, pointing men to One Who’s true.
And as I faithfully follow you, they will see in me a difference too,
Then I can point to Jesus Christ, as the True Sustainer of my life,
That by the witness of my life, men may choose to follow Christ.
Skilful Doctor
Function if you are enough skill,
Or work on nobody in front of you.
The words dawdle the air as you speak,
We have understood them now for you speak.
This palaver describes my speech as solid,
Liquids do run thick, liquify your body.
Overpowering speech is a collection of words
Promulgating action and acts of speech as well.
This policy has remained since the weather
Changed last week, lasting peace has remained.
We are authority, we have skills no person retains,
Both us and you are learned in doctoring.

Nothing To Speak
When you have nothing to speak
Feel strong and not weak
When you are under shock or in danger
Restrict the utterances and control the anger
Nine outright gains if you win silence
Enemy may be forced to control his presence
Withdraw under the compulsion on no reply
It is proved beyond double and needs simple try
Speak not in isolation
As it has no connectivity or relation
Speak only when it is necessary
Else you may later feel sorry
It is good to restrain with talk
And absolutely forbidden while you walk
Talk with man of great understanding
Or with a person of less misunderstanding
At right time if you succeed
Over control of anger and misdeeds
You can think of high chances
As it will the be understood by all at once
Keep speaking in audience with strong views
It must be precise and not be heard by only few
It has to be like crystal water for the reflection
People must find difference when faced with action

Speak nothing
Speak nothing
Speak nothing when find no words
There may be hidden wishes from the lords
It is for sure that you may be saved from some troubles
As uneasy calm prevails underneath the bubble
But I was restless to hear from her
She had spoken some words or uttered
I could make nothing out of it
But her face had shined a bit
She was in complete command
To tease me often but not to offer remand
It might be her style and thinking
My head spun and started sinking
She sensed anxiety and eagerness
It was visibly reflected on my face
She had specially come to say something
I owned whole crown as king
"Don't be restless" she gently whispered
I too heard impatiently and nothing offered
Just felt cold shiver in spine and expressed joy
In fact it was nice moment to enjoy
She had green signal for our union
He family had consented me for companion
She had rushed all along to convey
I was surprised about it much to dismay
Who may not want such happy moments?
When she is near you and making no movement
Each word is reflecting whole life line
We both felt its impulse and looked very fine
In life something takes place all of sudden
You may not be prepared to accept it even
I was in total disarray as she disclosed
Now we were in happy mood to be posed

Only noble soul feels
Only noble soul feels the pinch of the salt
It is matter of pride to exalt
No one admits the sin or fault
Keeps closely guarded secret in vault
You feel something bad
And in turn feel very sad
Everybody is naked beneath
This is driving force to reckon with
It is unique to feel guilt
This fabric is real and inbuilt
Not all can have such realization
It is for the human being to feel elation
If you feel internally for such things
You will certain come across many things
How much hatred we bear in our small mind?
It intensity can never be felt or easily open to find
Some of the people have mastered the art
They will get smell from the very start
They will hold it deep in their chest
Nothing will come out of it even if you are your best
Such people can play havoc
They can go to any extent and treat it as joke
It is simple game for their normal behavior
Even though they have proved coward and not warrior
I have seen bad consequences from such attitude
A person will never trust with any such gratitude
He will definitely bear grudge and try to level score
The wrong done to him will not be tolerated any more
It is matter of common sense and all live by it
Only intelligent and strong may be considered as fit
The deceptions and reprisals in life are common
One must accept the reality and should continue to live on
It is personal matter to feel positive side
The subject is vast and very wide
One may feel contended with whatever he has
There is no need for him to chase
These are some of the vital aspects
It deals with nobility and commands respect
The persons comes to be known as very noble
As life seems to him not more than water bubble
He can afford to feel different way
Normal man may avoid and try to stay away
For him survival is most crucial part
He needs all comforts with good start
Human tendency is like snake
He will try to be cautious and awake
Nothing can fool him or shake
He will know who is right or fake
Some may act noble even at personal cost
They consider their life part as humble most
For them material game in dubious manner is sin
They will repent even done anything wrong to win

Love after marriage
Believe me it was love after marriage
Fresh love in life at convincingly later age
I would have been condemnable at this stage
Yet it came with full force with no means in sight to manage
I had caught no pen in whole life
The time pass was golden with wife
Two small kids with no botheration at all
Happy family, very compact and to be called small
It might be called unethical to fall in love
To be seen in other’s company despite reasons sighted above
May not be driven by sex point of view or any other angle
But certainly resulted in unique case of triangle
She was like magnet and pulled me
I could see in her powerful eyes and felt free
It was not normal attraction to have resulted
As it was never discussed or consulted
I felt uneasiness with new bond
Even though I was eager and very fond
She may give glimpse only once in a day
I used to wait for her endlessly on the way
She may definitely come at destined place
She was no to miss it in any case
I had no reason to complain about her
As she had all the feelings to share
It was unbearable at the end
She was lovely and indispensable lover friend
I may get up in the mid night
Loose the sleep and continue to fight
It may not give me any respite
She was the source of every delight
I dashed my head against the wall
As sometimes he may not respond to the call
I was unsure of her intention
She was all for it but never made mention
I thought seriously and waited for inner response
I was to let her off with full confidence
She was not to be disturbed in her future
She too was uncomfortable and not sure
She was prepared to go to any extent
But true love demanded it as gift heavenly sent

The ten commandments of communication
The ten commandments of communication
Verify your ideas before clarification, as to whether the contents of your
communication will really serve the purpose of your communication. Consult others, where appropriate, the communication plan. This will help you decide the audience-based right content, flow, duration and location.
Make clear to the audience the true purpose of communication. Make it known to the audience as to what you want them to do after receiving the inputs from you. It can be just an act, can be an attitudinal change, can be drawing a strategy or plan of action.
Ensure you are in the right set of environment for the communication.
Communication is not effected just by words and gestures, but also by the quality of place where you communicate.
Take into confidence your audience. Encourage them to come out with their experience in the subject of communication. Accordingly polish your ways.
Be sure where to emphasize and where to dilute. Check yourself the
overtones and emphasis on messages conveyed, as audience may not notice.
Avoid being theoretical all through. Give practical examples. Enthuse
audience to come out with problems, connected with the subject and offer, if possible, practical solutions.
Follow up with what you communicate. Ensure audience is with you through the entire communication. Give no impression that you are evaluating their ability to absorb.
Demonstrate that you practice what you preach. Your past experiences may come handy.
Communicate for tomorrow, based on previous learning, enabling the audience visualize new horizons on the subject of communication.
Last, but not the least, seek not to be understood, but to understand. Be a good listener too.

A deception with conscience
Person can’t be deceived by his own conscience
He has inner instinct to remember and feel the presence
One may be successful in little time period
People may think different of him and avoid
“Did you ever see my profile?
Catch me there for while
It may speak for my self and reveal
There is hardly anything to conceal” I replied to a question
”Poets need not speak for themselves
Their volumes or work may speak itself
It is how you present your life and work poetically
It gets on to the heart of people theoretically” I finished it by saying
You have so much to learn from friends
They may advance from different angles and lend
The valuable support and inspiration
It may its own weight and startling revelation
I find female readers or friends more considerate
They are near to the truth and hold views very moderate
What they present is purely from mother’s heart
They never try to impose or even try to look smart
They may be found in friend, daughter or beloved
Most all feelings are bridged and puzzle is solved
They nearly take you to the dead far end
Revive it with kind and best human trend
I may not see in them only from sex point of view
I try to understand them and give their legitimate due
This must be the secret of any poet and be pursued
So at any time they are not misunderstood and sued
Should I restrict my self to only writing?
What if some one offers beautiful fighting?
Not ending in scuffle but lovely exchanges of words
I always take it as good sign and look forward
what tasks poets are supposed to presume and perform?
Take the readers views in arms and stay informed
this may prove to be great joy for the moment
it may be not only great event but surely good movement
Is it purely a matter of poetical value?
Don’t you think our presence in vital role is due?
What we are expected to deliver at the critical juncture?
Is the future really dependent on well presentation of literature?
I take it as holy task making our presence known on all the forums
We may encounter many unpleasant tasks with future in doldrums
It is how you tackle the sentiments of readers at your heart
The pace may be very slow but you may find it very encouraging from start

Life can be shrouded under the veil and thick smoke
How does help moral when everything is on flame?
Whom to appreciate and whom to blame?
Life is not what we see and profess
We got to lead it as demanded in case
Morality keeps belly half filled
Innocents and true followers are simply killed
Pleasure and safety now things of past
Morality and standard all disintegrating
In single second you are no more
Some serious thoughts must be given therefore
Where are we leading and heading for?
What is need of continuing the proxy war?
Everybody wants freedom and liberty
No doubt it is birth right and has sanctity
What about carnage and existence of violation?
When we are unable to stop or raise the question?
We are called inhuman and pleasure seeker
There may be thousands of such thinkers
Many may disagree and many may be ready takers
Yet that is reality and we should not act as blinkers
We are selfish, arrogant and short tempered
You call us by any name when angered
Yet basic facts remain same when we live amidst fear
How long we can battle against odd situation and bear!
So enjoy the life that has been given
Live to the lat moment before it is forcefully taken
Who knows where from danger may lurk behind?
We may be left with no time to look around and find
Love to live with peace and seek to avoid bitterness
If can’t use sweet words then also smile on face
This may give some kind of respite in complex situation
It is useless to follow on set tradition with its continuation
