An identity

I know
Who you are,
But I don't know
Who I am.

I and I

Thou art my I,
I am thy I,
Why should there be
An altercation
Between I and I?

The magnate of evil

The magnate of evil
But what a magnate it is!
It cannot draw the iron of Character Towards it.

A Bee

Hovering around the flowers,
It sucks the juice and converts it
Into honey,
What a loss!
And
What a profit!

A Confession

You have gone away from my life
But you still inhabit in my heart
When I try to forget you,
I remember you most.

A question

Leave love for lovers' sake,
Let's go and bottle shake,
How many thought like this?
And put their lives at stake.

Human nature

Devilish

To serve his own interests
He can stake other's.

Virtuous

To serve other's interests
He can stake his own.

A prayer

O Lord, bless me With the light of knowledge,
So that I may enlighten
My character,
To spread the light of
Humanity in the world.

A mother

Filled with tender feelings,
Like a tree which bears
Its fruits with care,
She is laden with love
For her children,
She is a mother.
