It makes sense
When controversy surrounds
and things blow out of proportion
remember,
that tranquility still makes sense
When tension surrounds
and mind gets exhausted
remember,
that patience still makes sense
When mystery surrounds
and logic takes a backseat
remember,
that reality still makes sense
When laughter surrounds
and the vox gets too loud
remember,
that silence still makes sense

The middle-class people
In the pages of magazines & story-lines of TV channels,
I have always heard about the middle class people
What we are and where we belong (?)
disco & pop are replacing folk song
we talk about globalization at the cost of identity
while chasing endless dreams, meet harsh reality
In efforts to achieve esteem ambitions
people are forgetting culture & traditions
rich people do not have value for it,
& poor do not have time
it's the middle-class that carry weight of expectations

Sky is all yours
Yesterday’s gone
like disappearing clouds
like vanishing stars
like passing twilight
like fading moonlight
Leaving memories
of stress and fun
of rest and run
of hope and despair
of scare and care
It’s the time
to reflect on past glories
to bury bitter memories
to match a flowing stream
to catch the next dream
So, my friend!
grab with both hands

A miracle ray
You made me what I am today
'I love you mom! ' I want to say
You are like a miracle ray
Thank you for always showing the way
I see a teacher in you
Always instructing, always guiding
I see a mentor in you
Always appreciating, always encouraging
I see a healer in you
Always worrying, always caring
I see a comforter in you
Always forgiving, always relieving
You are my cushion when I fall
You are my pillar standing tall
You have made me who I am
Due to you, I have joy and fun
You are my angel, so precious

A desire to excel
Imagine there was no country
No borders to protect
No temptation to destroy 'others'
World as a single country
Wonder what to feel proud of!
Imagine there was no religion
No selfish feeling around
No reason to diffuse hate
Humanity as a single religion
Wonder what to die for!
Imagine there was no caste or sect
No superiority or inferiority feelings
No incentive for discrimination
Everyone with a desire to excel
Wonder what can disunite us!
(We extend our deepest condolence to all those who lost their lives in the Mumbai (India) terror attack on 26 November,2008. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of the victims’ families. Lets stand united and pray together. Lets act towards a peaceful and prosperous world.)
