In the spirit of Rumi 36 - The rose told me
‘If all men already knew my message, saw my smile
then there would be no need for me to speak; or to exist.
If all men already knew my message, saw my smile
then they would treat me like the grass; like the sand.
If all men already knew my message, saw my smile
I would be a noun bereft of any adjective
like grass; like sand.
If all men already knew My message, saw My smile
they would already be God.
If all men already knew My message, saw My smile
none of them, or all of them, would be poets.’
I Am glorious unity;
I Am glorious multiplicity;
Enjoy Me.
[for Ghada, with thanks..]

Whole Existence
It not only carries your whole existence
But revels a lot about your presence
It takes your message to far end
Where you have only well wishers and friends
It carries message of peace at countryside
Though the flank is spread and very wide
But the river flow is unable to hide
Your message and makes beautiful voice to confide
What a lovely magic in message!
Children, boys young and even with age
All adore your presence and enjoy
Lovely scene to take pride with joy
How much life it may give?
To the dry grass and relieve
Their anxiety about new release
Flowers to come by their side at ease
Finally to reach at the dead end
With same energy, affection and tread
Sky may touch the vast horizon
Peace message is delivered and hearts are won
This is occasion to be smiled
For all that has been realized
Who knew it might have met different fate?
Yet it is heartening to know and not very late

Smile for me
When you smile,
You create a language of intimate interaction,
When you smile,
You send an instant message of heart to heart communication.
When you smile,
You create a dream world of happiness,
When you smile,
The whole world smiles with you,
When you smile,
The despair and troubles seem so far away,
When you smile,
The hope and cheers seem only a stone’s throw away.
When you smile,
My heart gets the will to survive in distress,
When you smile,
My mind gets the power to overcome all the hurdles.
When you smile,
My heart belongs to you,
when you smile,
The whole world belongs to you.

You Have Deceived
You have deceived
The message was long back received
God sent you here with big smile
You forgot him meanwhile
You were to spread
Live the life and lead
Peaceful life with message
Not to force anybody to live in cage
He made no difference
You were chose and sent at once
With love and peace
To live with others at ease
Every object live with harmony
Still message not understood by many
Hatred and war control the rage
Create bad blood and drive a wedge
Obey and listen to what is meant for
Stop the unrest and avoid the war
“Peace and calm is my message”
Open the chapter with message on page

Yesterday's Smiles
If we could count yesterday's smiles
and double that number today.
We might feel the kind of happiness
that would take our frowns away. A smile can say so many things
and still not speak a word.
So many times a smile has said,
the kindest words I've heard. Your smile can ask, "how are you?"
I hope you're feeling well.
And when a smile is returned to you
You'll know the message it tells. We know a smile says nothing wrong
like the words in our prayers we pray.
Let's try to smile more often
to brighten someone's day. A smile doesn't show any envy
it only shows we care.
To give one never cost a dime,
God gave them to us to share.

Smile Alone
Smile makes you young
Prevents you from doing wrong
Makes you to attempt for new song
Takes you in dreamy land and make to dance among
What a way to feel with one smile
As if all these year wasted for while
The smile has strength to for go for violence
To live at ease the smile proves as an essence
Smile plays constructive role
Look at shining eyes of an idol
Divine touch may be conveyed with message
No fake signal but truly inscribed on page
Many wars have been avoided
With the little spread of message loaded
Smile plays miracle when air is hot
The result is shown without war being fought
I meet many friends with gorgeous smile
Very much pleasant with different style
It speaks a lot from inner depth
Some times drive a person to meet with death
It is good to be always in good mood
This must be clearly understood
As we all see and experience
It is to be noted with care hence

The Message Is You
Slapped back to my senses.
Confused to pieces once!
It wasn't easy...
Knowing then what to do!
Stung from much heartache.
That wouldn't leave me.
Broken...
Until I found out...
The message is You!
Don't know how this started.
But I knew it had to end!
Shakened on the ground I was.
Without defense,
Family or friends.
But then...
Released from set traps!
Cut from addictions that treated.
I wasn't pleased!
What choice should I choose?
On my knees I knew...
The message is you.
Slapped back to my senses.
Confused to pieces once!
It wasn't easy...
Knowing then what to do!
On my knees...
That's when I knew!
So clear to hear...
The message,
Is You!

And to Lula Da Silvia of Brazil;
Your name is Armani and,
My love for you is like Absalom's Monument.
Life is like a message to the unknown girl,
Life is like a message to the unnown boy,
Life is like a message to the unknown man,
Life is like a message to the unknown woman,
Life is like a message to the unkown gardener,

A Gift From The Mermaids
Washing ashore
I see a pendant
Picking it up
I can tell it's a valuable sea treasure
On the pendant
There's a message engraved
The message is from the mermaids
Who thank me for everything
As well as the memories
And the dreams
I smile to the sea
Even though they they're far out there
And can't see me
As they're either under the sea or playing with the
sea creatures
They know I'm grateful

Cant Smile Without You
(c. arnold/d. martin/g. morrow)
Chorus:
You know I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel sad when youre sad
I feel glad when youre glad
If you only knew what Im going through
I just cant smile without you
You came along just like a song
And brightened my day
Who would believe that youre part of a dream
Now it all seems light years away
You know I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel sad when youre sad
I feel glad when youre glad
If you only knew what Im going through
I just cant smile
Some people say happiness takes
So very long to find
But Im finding it hard
Leaving your love behind me, so you see
I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel glad when youre glad
I feel sad when youre sad
If you only knew what Im going through
I just cant smile without you

Beautiful Mind
A beautiful mind or a beautiful body
I know which one Im gonad end upon
You say you will but you never promised thoughts
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand
As far as youre concerned
A road and a sign I know which one catches my eyes
And i, thought I heard it for a while
Then it all came to me
Sometimes I just dont know I believe in
Dont you wanna know when I suffer
It doesnt show
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand dont you know?
I was thinking about moving back home
I dont really need to live here
No no I didnt I could Im sure I would if I knew that
I didnt I could Im sure I would if I knew that
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand
As far as youre concerned
A beautiful mind or a beautiful body
I know which one, Im gonad end upon end upon

It's In The Message
It's in the message that is a benefit.
It's in the message that is left that is effective,
If...
The one who comprehends the message meant.
And...
If the message sent to them makes any sense.
And...
The understanding of it doesn't get them bent,
Out of shape.
Or brings heartache.
And that message is received,
As a gift to take.
It's in the message that is a benefit.
It's in the message that is left that is effective,
If...
The one who comprehends the message meant.
And...
If the message sent to them makes any sense.
And...
The understanding of it doesn't get them bent,
Out of shape.
Or brings heartache.
And the message is received,
As a gift to take.
It's in the message that arrives...
And one will take.
It's in the message that delivers...
A statement made!
And taken...
As a gift!
Yes,
It's in the message that is a benefit.
And...
It's in the message for the one who makes some sense of it.
And admits,
It benefits...
To believe.

Smile Always!
Smile man, smile! Always smile!
Smile all life and smile in style;
Smiling makes one worriless;
And makes you happy and less tense.
Let your smile be spontaneous;
Smiling keeps body relaxed,
And makes your mind fit and composed;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Smile from dawn to until dusk;
That’s one way to beat life’s stress;
Smile to all who come across;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Smile and get forever praise;
It will help you pass your days;
You will never feel malaise;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Four muscles help you to smile;
Sixty-four help you to frown;
Smile man smile! Smile all days!
Smile man, smile! Smile always!

I just can't smile without you
You came along just like a song and brightened my day. Who would've believed that you were part of dream? Now it all seems light years away and now you know...
CHORUS 2:
I can't smile without you
I can't smile without you

I feel glad when you're glad
if you only knew what I'm going through
I just can't smile...
