Light of Life

There's a room in my heart,
Which when open produces light
Sometimes it shines so brightly
And sometimes it goes dim.
When it shines,
I see his face, glowing with a smile,
When it goes dim,
I see his face yet again,
But, this time tears well his eyes.

I can feel that burn in my heart
Yearning to know more of his word
Dying to see him close to my heart
Wanting to submit myself to him.
And when I submit myself to him,
I feel that cool breeze touch my heart.
All troubles taken away,
All fears gone;
Only confidence and Courage remains.

When I am sick, he heals me,
When I am depressed, he comforts me,
When I am happy, he smiles with me;
And doubles that joy within me.
He is always present with me
He is the Lord, who carries me in his arms...............
............wherever he goes.

Female Generation

Females have many descriptions,
Based on their different stages,
Descriptions not simple to state,
But that which run through pages.
As a baby, she is so innocent,
Like a bud that has just awoken from her sleep,
Unaware of the evil world
Which she is yet to face,
And dwells in her own magical world.

As a girl, she learns to live life,
Taking advice from her elders,
And looks like a flower beside the human door,
A flower, yet to blossom.
As she grows, she goes to school
And then to college, and
Then she learns to maintain her household chores.

At the time of her marriage
She is often a commodity,
Often purchased for dowry
By the fosters of her groom to be.
And when she goes to her new house
She resembles a rupee,
For now she is in one’s pocket,
And then in another.

She performs her duties
As a wife, to her husband,
AS a mother, to her children,
And when old, she is bent with age,
But still she performs her duties.

She bears all that comes her way
And accepts it with a Smile.
She plays a vital role in life,
For without her,
Life is Incomplete.

Daddy and Me

I walked down the road
Hand in hand with him,
I feel that touch, that special touch!

My life was in darkness, pitch darkness!
He held me tight and pulled me out.
He led me through an Illuminated path,
A path that was lit with his Glory and Grace.
We walked together for quiet sometime,
I had tons and tons of questions in mind.

I asked him why I feel lonely at times,
He replied, that’s for you to realize,
How much I care for you.
I asked him why I miss my friends,
He replied, how much more do I miss you,
when you go after friends.

I asked him why I didn’t have beautiful hair like others?
He said, my dear child,
I wanted you to be special and stand out of the crowd.
I asked him why I get angry at times?
He said, that’s what is called the devil’s attack.

I asked him why he made nature so pretty?
He said, only for you to enjoy.
I asked him, can I become a baby once again?
He said, you are always my baby.

I asked him a final question….God!
What’s your plan for me?
He replied, only and only good plans.

Then we continued the beautiful journey….
The everlasting journey…..
Me and my Daddy all alone!

Lovelessnesslessnesslessnesslessness…

I thought a trillion times,
And the thoughts betrayed me.
I fought a zillion mimes,
and the heart, sidetracked me.

It looks, a fountain,
Then it’s a spin….
It opens, a candle eye
And your wings burn..

You will never know,
All you did is, you will
have given your wings…
and would’ve never seen,
you’ve given your dreams.

Amidst the flame we stand,
Scorching heat that licks the skin,
and our peeling pride.
Feels nothing. It feels power.
It’s so earned, but a flower.

It re-discovers the nights,
Brings back Goethe and the bard.
The stars comes down and I goes up,
Pessimism and I, in great heights.
