Weapon with mankind
Smile is biggest weapon with mankind
Go any where in world and you may find its unique kind
Eyes may speak and convey what actually you want
You need not tell what you want and what you don't
Why is it so difficult in foreign land?
When they are unfamiliar with our customs and try to be friends
Language definitely becomes barrier but proves of little hindrance
They accustom to our need and adjust fast at once
Some of the nationals may act hostile too
Their political links and past struggles forbid to
Yet financial consideration compel them to be friendly
Tourists and travelers mingle with them and exchange readily
It is nice to pay regular visits to some of the countries
It is one of the rarest experiences to exchange pleasantries
Not only countries come close but share the valuable information
That can lead to cementing the foundation with strong relation
We are tolerant society
We easily adapt to any system even if found hostile or not easy
Many countries employ rigid stand on the name of patriotism
Yet in silence too they find some kind touch of humanism
You wear good smile and your half work may be done
The favorable wind may flow and suspicion might be gone
It is man to man contact and has no bearing on past history
Leaders spoil the atmosphere but population remain least concerned with worry

Strengthen the friendship
Strengthen the relation
Countries can remain divided
All commodities can be freely provided
Yet man to man contact strengthens the relation
That is sign of friendly and very encouraging indication
Entire globe is divided into continents
People prefer more contacts and affiliation with sentiments
I, too, am no exception and stick to some kind of bond
I like more and more and develop the fondness
I am inclined more to poetry
And as such thank powerful almighty
For giving me an instinct to follow inner conscience
In each line you may find beauty and his presence
"Hello sir, " broke my silence and concentration
It was call from distant land as understood by indication
I had seen her several times on the friends list
She was all for praise of poems and considered as best
I fast slipped in to dream land
Where I could anticipate and think of good friends
Poets need good environment and natural surrounding
Her call was of my liking and made me joyous on finding
"Can you be my best inspirational subject? "
It was fine gesture to call on me and can be considered as fine act
"I am confused at your proposal" came back the reply
Now it was my turn to feel bad and shy
"Skip it" I hastily retraced the steps and waited for reaction
"No problem with arrangement" was the words for action
I found sky so close to me and inviting to touch the horizon
I wondered at the folly of man who created such different zones
Poets mind can travel at far end and come back with good message
Peace and harmonious atmosphere can prevail in all ages
Why at all we should go for boundary clashes and wars?
The peace should never elude us and look at distance or far
"I may take leave but certainly look at" was her response
My worry lines just disappeared as I was looking tense
She had shown marvelous quality and presence of mind
For me she was not less than then the precious treasure of any kind

Its sad that air is the only thing we share,
No matter how close we are theres always air between us.
Its also nice that airs something we all share,
No matter how far apart we are an air links us.
Its sad that past is something we can never share,
No matter how close we are the past is between us.
But its also nice that without the past
Wed have never known each other,
No matter how far apart we are it brought us together.
Yes, its very nice to have someone to share,
Theres something very nice to have someone to care.
We may not share our past but we have our future to share.
Its sad that life is such a heavy thing to bear,
No matter how close we are its easy to despair.
Its also nice that you and I know its what we all share,
No matter how far apart we are we can learn to care.
Theres something very nice to have something to share,
Theres something very nice to have someone to care.
We may not share our bodies but we have our minds to share.
Yes, theres something very nice to have something to care,
Theres something very nice to have someone to share.
We may not share our language but we have the world to share.

Is it difficult
Is it that difficult to smile at some one?
Do we consider it very hard and troublesome?
This is only thing we have in abundance
Give a sincere try and take a life chance
You won’t suffer any reprisal
You will find many surprises on spring’s arrival
Nature may adopt different stance with good look
Nature lovers may find good stuff to write in heir book
If you look at someone with smile
It will generate lots of love for a while
The person may be overwhelmed with joy
There may be so much wetness in relation to enjoy
He will be overjoyed to receive such gesture
He may start guessing about new future
Why one should smile at somebody for nothing?
It has lots of effects to generate for something
How do you feel at receiving little smile from leader?
How does one feel at receiving thanks as reader?
It is considered as fine gesture and simple gift
You may find complete and attitudinal shift
Nations at war can be brought a negotiating table
What can be achieved with hard stance even if we are able?
Exchange of little pleasantries with smile can change climate
We can bring about change even if it is late
God is another name or symbol of love
We should only responsibly behave
Love can create congenial atmosphere
Everybody should feel happy without any fear
It is expected that everybody should succeed
There is good hope and urgent need
It may not bring immediate change
Love can change and smoothly arrange
Love and smile can completely alter the scene
It has tremendous scope for the magic to be seen
Love at first sight can be felt by little smile
It has power and strength to take you for an extra mile
Think of a plight where there is complete absence of harmony
You can’t think of situation where you always face the situation very thorny
You got to think of powerful weapon to be used at
It is like rolling ball to be thrown at and freely set
You can’t hate a person with broad or little smile
Your eyes may speak of kind feeling for w while
It may send some quick signals for conciliation
Old enmity may disappear if tried for reconciliation
In olden days Olive branch was sent with roses
It was some kind of bold initiative for the trusts to repose
We sometimes find the smiling faces with rare combination
It is the smile coupled with desire results into culmination

Silence And I
(lead vocal - eric woolfson)
If i cried out loud
Over sorrows i've known
And the secrets i've heard
It would ease my mind
Someone sharing the load
But i won't breathe a word
We're two of a kind
Silence and i
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and i
We'll find a way to work it out
While the children laughed
I was always afraid
Of the smile of the clown
So i close my eyes
Till i can't see the light
And i hide from the sound
We're two of a kind
Silence and i
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and i
We'll find a way to work it out
I can hear the cry
Of the leaf on a tree
As it falls to the ground
I can hear the call
Of an echoing voice
And there's no one around
We're two of a kind
Silence and i
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and i
We'll find a way to work it out

All ills
We had heard about racial discrimination and abuses
We were claiming tall but had to admit and could not refuse
The world is fast coming out of ethnic cleansing
How much more time we may need for real cleaning?
It ails society and countries on large scale
We have not come in terms and really failed
Our eyes still refuses to accept green
Before this such scenario never had been
Black and whites have fought for centuries and cursed
They wounds have been aggravated further and still not nurtured
Dark skin has some what not been hated most but the nations
Have remained at war for decades and strained the relations
What did the apartheid literally do other than to create hatred?
Where were the real feelings for country to stand united and lead?
Centuries of old relation evaporated in faction of seconds
Blood hungry rivals fought over for nothing but only diamonds
We have heard the poor being subjected to harassment and negligence
We too have come across the atrocities and rights violations
It has been tackled to large extent but this Oh God, terrorism
Really a dastardly act aimed at nothing but to malign the humanism
We have fought guerilla war and come across deadly organizations
Years of turmoil and blood bath have ruined us culture and institutions
We have nothing else left except to lick and nurture the wounds
Still that remains buried in mind and some traces are found
We are strongly divided over the issue of strong nationalism
It can have nothing to do with any kind of terrorism
The honorable ways are there open to wage the struggle
The innocent people can not taken as hostage and killed in jungles
It is possible strong armies may fail to curb such menace
The countries involved may stop the in flow of finance
The moral support is welcome in any form and appreciated
The terror and barbaric attacks for gaining freedom can not be equated
The world has witnessed the holocaust of atomic destruction
The world leaders are worried about capture of such weapons
What will be fate of entire world if that becomes tragedy?
Such elements must be rooted out as first steps of the remedy
Apartheid, color, cast and religion has not done much damage
Countries at war were persuaded and won over to manage
The next war may be deadly and even worst than ever expected
Why not we consider small part for all human lives to be respected?

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

Countries under foreign command quickly forget their history, their past, their tradition, their national symbols, their way of living, often their own literary language.

A fine good morning
Person should be greeted with good morning
Say hello while making departure in the evening
Don’t forget to say bye with good night
It is good to follow and think it right
It is customary to say few good words
This was followed in court room of lords
It is an age old system and has continued with tradition
There is nothing new or changed as an addition
You need no particular occasion to wish
The day must end with good finish
It gets you good respect and response
People put trust in you and readily repose
Don’t forget to wish a person
It has no time or particular season
Bury the differences and say a word
“Hello brother” I pray for you to lord
Bitterness may disappear or go in seconds
You need not go here and there and find the words
It has its own magical bound or spell
Everything may turn into good and augur well
You just offer beautiful smile
Don’t wait not for reply but stay for while
It will have its own way and desirable effect
Relation may end in long spell with profound impact
What do we loose if we say simple “hello”?
It is mere invitation or extension of good wishes to allow
forget the bad things of past and simple road to follow
Great tradition may have it and teaches us to lie low
Good thoughts should emerge from heart and ready to flow
Adversary too may forget the past and try to go little slow
There won’t be emission of bad feelings and sweetness may grow
There will be warmth in reception with all niceties to flow
it may wash the dirt accumulated by centuries
happiness may be seen everywhere with disappearance of worries
There will opening of new chapter in relation
Differences if any may vanish with sincere urge
What do we gain by showing simple gesture?
It is opening of new chapter with bright future
love and not the hatred may rule the scene
we should exchange pleasantries and must be very keen
It is greatest moment in life if we bury the bitterness
There should be no room for increase in differences
It has grown nicely with change in behavior
Foe may turn best friend and act as savior
Love and to be loved should guide the principle
Peace and harmony should be the words in preamble
The world needs most of the things performed with peace
The rest of mankind must lead the life at ease

Dolly Is Queen
Dolly is queen
Such kind of beauty is never seen
As if carved out from wood
And considered as thought for food
Lovely smile
To take you for ride meanwhile
Joy and only joy
With her you can always enjoy,
Exchange pleasantry
That is all necessary
Makes everybody happy
Always in good mood and ready
Combination of art and skill
She is rich by her strong will
She has made great impact
By skillful presentation in the poetical act
How can I miss her?
Without any appearance or picture
Yet her impression is carved out in mind
I have yet to see her and find
Such kind of brilliance with beauty is rarely seen
As if full moon has appeared in sky with rare scene
Nobody may notice their regular appearance
But when in contact can be considered as golden chance

Good Love
Everytime I get to see you
I get this feelin
Its so fuzzy inside
And as soon as I walk away from you
Im still tasting your kiss
Saving it in my mind
Its not everyday I find
A guy that makes me smile all the time
Not the way that you do
All the guys I thought I used to love
Compared to you they dont match up
They got nothing on you
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
Baby you got somethin special
That has me thinking of settling down
Youre the one my mama told me
Would sooner or later one day finally come around
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
You bring me joy
And you bring me much pleasure
I could never see myself leaving you ever
Your soft touch is good and it cant get no better
You have got my mind so caught up
Im drunk off of your good love
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you

I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to

A good or bad
We may have similar nature of different kind
The situation too would be hostile and unkind
We may have upper hand in terms of knowledge
Still we will be singled out even with clear edge
It is difficult to adjust with the situation
It may trouble us for its continuation
As they enter our life as reality
It may upset us and question our ability
We may not be able to confirm
We may not be able to confront either
Everything may look not to our test
Still we got to adjust and think as best
It may not go well with our belief
It may not give us at all any relief
Still it may be relation with new leaf
We got to forgo so many things and act as deaf
It may not compel us to do anything
But still we may miss in us as something
It shall not go as per our thinking
We may watch it helplessly with eyes only blinking
The problem may still persist
People may force on us and insist
We may not be in position to tell them to desist
They may pursue it vigorously and resist
This may cause some infuriation in mind
We may think over it nut unable to find
Any way out but fall in lines
It may hold good to watch on side lines
We may think it wrong and absurd
You may still want not to be of guard
You may try to go ahead with your own way
It is feared you may be pushed and driven away

As proud national
I fail to feel as proud Indian
As do the Africans and Americans
When time comes to proclaim as nationals?
To show the world that we are among equals
It has become imperative now to put a strong show
To let world know that we are zealous and determined to grow
No one can push us back so long as nation is concerned
Take us not as weak when table is likely to be turned
We can helplessly see the world divided over
Boundaries, nationalities and attachment find the cover
Poor countries are pushed to the brink and burdened
Kept under heavy heels and peace is never returned
We all know about the dark reality still fall for trap
As a strong nation that is not merely insult or slap
It is humiliation when your nose is pressed
You are forced to sign and troops are based
When I say I fail to be proud Indian
It proves to state that we have failed to be custodian
What our forefathers enshrined in constitution?
Protection to all with fine and neatly formed institution
I find no spirit whatsoever in given environment
Everywhere you find dissension and resentment
What has gone with system and with the people?
Why there is brewing of problems and troubles?
Why no elderly person is safe is his home?
Why do we find hostile reception and welcome?
Why there are day light murders and robberies?
What prevents them from removing the miseries?
I fail to corner two squares of meals
Thousands of tons rot in open and open to steal
Poor starve to death and grain goes in drain
There is systematic loot with powerful chain
My country was known as golden bird
Today no where it can be seen or traced
We are yet not that poor in natural wealth
It is taken off illegally and further pushing us to death
Security is compromised, police is on rampage
Leaders are proving helpless and unable to manage
How can I claim and prove to be proud and true national
When thousands die without medical care on arrival?

Smile--Smile--Smile
A smile is beautiful with all its charm
Something to give but does no harm
A smile is a frown only upside down
It has a good feeling, just look around
A smile is a flash that cannot be sold
It has everlasting pleasure we are told
A smile is like the sunshine at its very best
Some wear it all the time until they lay down to rest
A smile is valuable like silver and gold
But it cannot be bought just always on hold
A smile is nothing till someone gives it away
Just try your best to receive it some day
A smile is like a statue that enriches the mind
You cannot steal or throw away but not hard to find
A smile is for the rich also for the poor
The benefits are the same till there is no more
A smile is for everyone with its action so true
It creates happiness in the home for me and you
A smile is a smile as known to mankind
Stand up in front and smile not stand behind.

Past memory
How long person can live with past memory
To feel sad whole day and night with so much sorry
Adding tension, causing concern and worry
This is something one must avoid to carry
I come across many people with strong attachment
They cry whole day and pass pessimistic statements
It is nothing but creation of confused mind
No one can really go forward for solution to find
Smile is such thing and can be had for no cost
It is missing in most of the cases with real face lost
They find end of world with slight setback
Relation is soared with development of cracks
The face bears great sense of satisfaction
The smile is very good parameter for such action
It is reflected as very good sign
One must accept the fate and silently resign
The is loosing its flavor when detached from plant
No one can restore its charm the way it is wanted
Once broken from its link with no more hope
Everything goes wrong and it flops
The face remains swollen and complete barren
This does not take place or happen all of sudden
It has its roots from the emancipation of mistrust
Then there is left little scope for any kind of trust
Only true friends may have little time to listen to your woes
The sad tale may go unheeded or unheard even if it flows
It looses its relevance if you are not sure of what is in mind?
No one may give credence to your tale even if you are so kind
You must make choice for past and present
You can’t remain attached to past and remain physically absent
That state is not acceptable in its any form
You need complete change with attitudinal reform

There are nearly 200 countries and a population of over 6 billion in today's world. International affairs should be addressed by all countries through consultations rather than monopolised by a few powers.
Beware Of Her!
She is an intelligent woman with pretty face,
Perfect crown, limbs and beautiful lips with gloss,
When she looked at the Middle East for oil,
The sultans sold the barren useless land, no toil,
Land acquired for the dirt price of the desert sand,
She liked to play games with rich and famous leaders,
Shah of Iraq chased and Saddam occupied her heart,
When the calf, she reared, poked her breast in Kuwait,
She suffocated the traitor in the drain and then killed,
Men of our nations so fond of her beautiful pants,
Whenever they play with her and get some loan from her,
The currency of the countries surely devalued,
Just name few countries, which have huge population,
Ever prospered in having relationship with her, except china,
a miscalculated and the Chinese want her to be their concubine,
She is so kind, really so generous to her old children,
Not to the children of her bed mates, that she shared,
Wherever she goes, she is a curse to the peaceful nations,
That will end with war or financial crisis and melt down of peace.

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