Reflection

When you're calm
I feel content
When you're disturbed
I'm distressed.

Hubble's Mirror

Hubble's mirror
With a tiny error
Cost the taxpayer
Many a million dollar.

Little Joys

These little joys
Will keep me moving
No one can take them away.

This tiny heart
Will keep on ticking
No one can stop it anyway.

Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal
Marvel in marble
A standing structure
Says love's eternal
Under full moon
Love's purity shines
Its symmetry a symbol
Of love's reciprocation.

Words Spoken

Words spoken
Like perfume spray
Go out into air...
Buzz and smell
Get noticed by all
Their effect lives on
Let the fragrance be likeable
And the message thoughtful.

Let It Be

If I die now
Let it be
After all
That's what I live for
I love my wife
I love my children
I love my friends
And my fellow beings
I lived a good life
If I die now
Let it be.

A parking lot
Each to mark
The journey's end

One behind the wheel
Is duty bound

World's a huge parking lot
People come and go.

Terrorism

When will this world be free

When will all decree
Equality of every organism?

Every move of the ordinary
Set in fear of Homosapiens...
A jungle's full of harmony
Have animals bettered the humans?

Bridge

Leaves rise
Leaves fall
Boats float
Cars cross
Old bridge
Comes to life…

Open's close
Close's open
There's no end
For end's beginning
Life now gets
An all new meaning.

Connects for ever
Here to there
Far's near
Let's explore
Open eye and see
Both land and sea.

Life

Birth
A chance occurrence

Death
An imminent event

Life
Everything in between

It's a mix
Of contradictions
Love and hate
War and peace
Passions and emotions

In our struggle
For survival
We've an opportunity
To fill it with
Abundance of
