The Source Of Salinity
Let the salt in our sweat,
maintain the salinity
of oceans and seas,
Not again the salt in our tears!

The Companion.
As long as,
Memories accompanied,
sweet memories replayed,
bitter memories deleted,
I am not alone. I have a companion.

Mutual Understanding
Man not changed,
the aim of water,
through his invention,
by pumping it up>
Still help it,
to fulfill its aim,
of looking.
for lower ground.

Peace Be With Us
Why do you want these animals to separate us?
The cow, the sheep, the pig, the dog and the cat,
Send them all to their own shacks and sheds,
We, human, can have peaceful earth.

Bye
When you throw,
the words of knife,
at me,
I change that into a spade,
to till my heart deeply,
to sow the hope,
to reap the confidence,
and evolve,
as a better human.
Bye..

In ICU
The ventilator is fixed,
The positive pressure is set,
Oxygen mixture is decided,
Anesthetic is mixed,
The prayers are told,
The cries are heard,
Duties are unfinished,
The kids are too small.
The wife is too young.

Worries Of A Flower!
Beautiful bees and butterflies,
Roaming around me for my nectar,
In such a drunken stupor,
Stealing away my treasure,
To decide the fate of another flower,
Whether it is going to wilt as a virgin,
Or get pollinated by these urchins.

Perception!
When I say what that flies in the sky is a joyful bird,
Someone says that it is a kite with glass and glue thread,
Another one says that it is an airplane with ambitious loads,
But the last one says that it is his dreams, not yet down loaded.

I will have my fan.
If I am put in a cage,
I will sing the melodious songs,
to make my oppressor,
to accompany me,
listening my music day and night,
even in his dreams,
He may be outside,
in the cage of earth,
but his mind belongs to my music,
and I caged him.

Enough Of It!
Rain may be generous enough,
to pour the water freely,
The clouds may be cunning enough,
not to choose rightly,
People may be smart enough,
to store and share cleverly,
The underprivileged may be quiet enough,
to tolerate the inconvenience tearfully.
