Morning Walk


I walked through my lawn in the morning,
The sky blushed pink with the sun rising,
The gentle cold wind ruffled my hair
With the fragrance of blossoms in the air,
The mist over the grasses began fading,
The birds in the nearby pond were wading,
The song of a little thrush soothed my ears,
The aroma of fresh brew smelt so tender,
For once I forgot that I was at my lawn,
And felt like I was residing in the haven.

Money Makes Many Things?


It does not matter how rich you are, honey
There are certain things which you cannot buy with money,
True love that stays with you in your vicissitudes,
Children who always rever and obey your words,
Family that respects and honors you,
Companions who are always true,
Good night's sleep and good health,
These are some things you cannot acquire by wealth.

Unspoken Love


The bitter past that had been killing him everyday
Eventually petered out when he saw her the first day;
She was different unlike other girls, she loved books,
And she never gave any importance to how she looks;
She was so quiet, yet her silence was loud,
He admired that quality how her silence spoke without a word;
When he looked into her eyes, he forgot himself totally,
And she felt the same, and drowned in his look crazily;
There was no conversation between them,
Yet their eyes spoke intensely with vim;
One day he mustered up his courage to propose her,
She waited for him at the same place where they saw each other;
He went on his knees and held out the bouquet of roses,
She turned aside and neglected his proposal with tears;
She had her wedding invitation card in her hand,
Which she trembled to give and lowered her head;
They parted their ways which was ought to be one,
Their unspoken love remained forever unspoken.

End of the Rainbow


Be optimistic everyday as you grow,
And be thankful that you are alive for another ad hoc;
Enjoy every moment as you are at the end of the rainbow,
Savor each instant from dawn to dusk;
Delight in when the sun rays strike your window,
Making you squint at the clock;
When the birds sing in your meadow,
And the fragrance of honeysuckle knock;
Let the floor be touched by your toe,
When the aroma of coffee show your tack;
Relish your food with complete gusto,
And be grateful that you are not starving of lack;
Duck out to work with joyous glow,
Never let pessimism cross your track;
Forgive and forget if you have had a row,
Just deliver a smile and do not yack;
Bear no malice even if you have a foe,
For they are the ones who admire your mistake;
Each day let your goodness grow,
So that you serenely hit the sack.
