The clouds
Soft, vapour laden carrier of the rain
Moving from one direction to another
Opening the door of their treasure for all lands
Barren or fertile
Converting the dry land into the 'glistening expanse' of verdure
And permeating the fertile one
with more strength and splendour
They are the messengers of comfort
They absorb the intensity of the sun
And protect us from heat and discomfort
These tourists present us the gifts of peace and contentment.

What is heavier than..........?
What is heavier than many a thing?
Heavier than tons
of load,
than earth and sky,
than stars and oceans,
than luxurious obsessions,
than persona and perfections
Tell me O, heart
I pine to know
My knowledge is
melting
like snow
But in a corner
of my heart
I hear a whisper
quite apart,
From the sound of
beating
and bubbling,
Words are heavier than

A song of sorrow
I write and remove thy name,
In this way I punish my heart,
Thy love was nothing but a game,
And I was defeated by thy ways smart.
I am still alive leading a life of curse,
My vivacity departs, my light is fading,
No one is here to find me a nurse,
And yet my peace thy memory is invading,
O soul, o life, be ready for something worst,
Something thy would never have seen,
My death will soon quench thy thirst,
Thou may get what I mean.

An advice to my students
In the sun of life, don't beg shadow
In the strife of life, don't ask for comfort
Always keep your eyes fixed on your goal
If you take your eyes off from your aim
You will be at the mercy of others
You will start begging
Which is the most henious act in the realm of God
So move towards your objective
With poise and passivity
And you will get the shadow of contentment
Your strife will yield eternal comfort to you
Your life will be filled with peace.

Behind the curtain
Your face is brightening with joy
Your conduct is full of confidence
Your heart melts for the poor
Your treasure is opened for them
Your riches has enthralled them
You relieve them from there trouble
They adore you for you are like
A god for them
And also for them who work in public offices
Your expensive gifts, your great gestures
Have made them turn their eyes off you
The source of your riches is not known
Nobody knows what lies
Behind the curtain.

Let's make a new world.....
Let's make a new world Of hope and joy
Where truth and honesty
Will prevail
In all the forms,
Where desires will not die
An untimely death,
Where poverty and oppression
Will not be obstacles In progress,
Where mind and heart
Will be free
From narrowness,
Where tiny voices will have
An easy access
To mighty ears,
Where power will be
A source of sympathy,
Where humanity will take
Precedence over wealth.
Let's make such a world..
Let's make such a world..

A crime in the dark of night
Under the cover of the drowsy night,
I see a very painful sight,
On the outskirts of the city,
A crime is born out of pity,
The crime is henious in nature,
Modesty experiences a fracture,
Who are these awesome faces,
I saw on them no traces,
No traces of shame and modesty,
Humanity seems to be void of honesty,
They are waiting for the customers,
They can be both old and new comers,
No job for them is a better substitute,
For each one of them is a prostitute.

My negative approach
They accuse me of being negative
In my approach
Yes, I am negative
For positveness lies in negativeness
By negating falsehood, we are familiar with the truth
By negating disappointment, we wear the crown of hope
By negating ignorance, we get the treasure of knowledge
By negating false gods, we come close to one single God
In short
By negating darkness, we are closed to light
So I take pride in my negativeness
As it instills me with the ability
To discover positiveness.

Earthquack in New Zealand
Once again
The monster of time struck,
He engulfed many lives
And uprooted
Happy Homes,
Snatched away their simple joy
And made their destiny cry.
Innocent children,
Helpless men and women
Couldn't bear his rage
And in an instant, Turned into corpse.
He shattered
Their hopes, their dreams
In the blink of an eye.
Man is nothing but
A prey to an invisible power, Fate
And the catastropies
are his agents.
Let's console the berieved families
And pray peace

Death, a coward
When they feel fog before their eyes,
when throat has a strange suffocation,
The truth overpowers all the lies,
Men get from all duties a redemption.
All the hopes are left far behind,
Fear of the arch rival comes to fore,
Nothing works whether it is heart or mind,
Who all the time wishes more and more.
His hunger is never
down or over,
Until he exercises on them his massive power,
But he is utterly coward and never seen,
He steals them from behind and leaves the scene.
