A Forbidden Paradise
Once it was a dream
Been to the place,always heard of
A paradise as they call it
Bestowed with immense beauty
As deity have decorated by its own
Brooks making path via green hills
Lakes touching foothills
Beauty soothing to eyes and soul.
A glimpse of which,
Takes one to another world…
The cool breeze passing by
Indicating the arrival of winter.
Falling leaves look as scattered
Vivid colours on ground.
Snow wearing silver hills
Making everyone thrill
A heavenly view,
one can only dream.
A place that now howls
Walking on a path,
Having no goals.
Like a rope pulled from both sides
Tearing it apart.
Having punished for a offence,
Unknown so far.
An outcome of greed,
Conflicting with humanity.
A bleeding state need to be,
resolved by charity…

FEAR
Four letter word fear,
when catches up with us,
Makes it difficult to think and focus,
It makes us shiver,
takes away our ability to think,
And won’t let our mind relax
and our eyes blink.
Fear is of different types and nature,
Like fear about uncertainty
in the future,
Each of us have an
ability to achieve things,
To fly in the sky with our wings.
The never ending pit that our fears dig,
To put us in and stops us
from playing big,
Failure is the only thing that fear gives,
Happy are the people,
without fear who lives.
Our energy, our dreams
are what it robs,
Flinging us back and forth
into our confort zones is one of its jobs,
With us, horrible dreams that our imagination binds,
Are fictional occurances taking shapes in our minds,
We should enjoy the present
moment and cheer,
If we were rooted in reality,
there would be no fear,
Fear makes our life a place
that is empty and void,
We should decide whether
we are here to live our life or to avoid.

FAME OR SHAME
One covers mouth and nose,
to attend ailing parents in old age,
Such an intention, is fame or shame?
Great persons are born to good mothers,
All parents are childs’ prime teachers,
To be careless parents, is fame or shame?
Teachers are main sculptures of a society;
They impart in students all qualities of purity.
This social responsibility is
fame or shame?
One shirks work for which is paid.
One is corrupt and does not
perform uptodate,
To be such a malignant is fame or shame?
The political leaders and the social heads
for personnel causes remain
at logger heals
Befouling the commons is fame or shame?
