The Cracked Window




The Cracked Window

He peered through the grimy,cracked window.
The cracks--an intricate spiderweb pattern,
let him view the world through many eyes,
each view distorted and no two views the same.
The same scene-- different perspective.

His view dulled by the grime on the window,
colored his world a washed-out array of
water colors. Once vivid and new--now a
hazy, smudge in his eyes.
The same scene -- different perspectives.

Yoda's word for the day

Yoda's word for the day

Calm is the way of the force,
peace is the way of it is,
always in motion, completing its course,
perfection is the goal of this spirit.
 
Learning its will, waiting until
the force speaks, the mind is but an ear,
looking not back, but forward, be still,
for your ally is here, do not fear,
love is the way of it, always one is harmony.
 
Together are they, do you not see?
Can they walk together unless they agree?
Use the force, take hold of your destiny.
Consider the force as the door to eternity.

Alpha Rhythm

Alpha Rhythm

As the two become one
Together counting every season
In a give and take relation
Living life to the maximum
Like dedicated musicians
We rehearse every session
With only one intention
To behold every reason
Love is the highest invitation
Much stronger than emotion
Much deeper than thee ocean
Nothing can top love's expression

A FRIEND IS FOREVER

A FRIEND IS FOREVER

A moment of silence, 
no need for
advertisement, 
a hand stretched forth,
without judgment of course. 

There is no
place for pride, 
where a friend resides,
some secrets are shared, 
to only those
ones who care. 

Love is the evidence, 
so we can not pretend this pre-tense, 
a movement of the soul,
each desiring to make each whole. 

Forgiveness is nothing new, 
this isbound to keep us true. 

A cry is never a surprise, 
when you realize your true prize,
that you have a friend, 
who loves without
end. How do you know who is your friend?

TIME will tell you, 
always. 

Truth comes out boldly, 
on any topic with friends, 
knowing that their secrets are kept inside. 

Lies appear when fear is present. 
True friends FEAR NOT, 
this is our evidence.

TRAVAIL OF A FROG

TRAVAIL OF A FROG

"There were two frogs.
Planned to enter a dwelling,
In quest of some eatables.
 
There was a big milk vessel,
In front of the rear door,
Of that sweet home.
 
The houseowner was waiting for,
The fermentation of the boiled milk,
Inside the vessel.
 
Both the frogs,
Being unaware of this,
Just jumped into the vessel.
 
The first one decided,
Its very arduous to escape,
And died without proper breathe.
 
But the second frog had the grit,
To fight against,
As far as possible.
 
By its frequent shake of the vessel,
Fermentation quickly happened,
And the butter floated on the vessel’s top.
 
The frog just sat on the butter,
Came to the vessel’s top,
And,atonce jumped out. "

Times of the Essence

Time’s of the Essence

Concrete surroundings, completely entombed
Try to make it past, the impending doom

Nothing left but my thoughts
Time graciously given, not sought

Waiting for my freedom
Consuming the lack of wisdom

You’ve learned your lesson
Life’s not a simple session

It’s the price you pay
To sit in jail day after day

Think about your actions,
Your last main attractions

Or inmate for sure,
For now, but never more

THE JOURNEY OF LIFE

THE JOURNEY OF LIFE
 




Once upon a time,I was alone on a train journey.
Initially,i felt tough.
 

But, i sang a song of my own,
To get rid of being alone,
 

With the aid of my ringtone!
Later,I got a friend,
To love till my end,
Who never allow my heart to bend,
 

Whom the God has sent !
Then only I realised,
The Journey of life.
 

It may be too short or long,
We may reach the destination,
Or meet with an accident
In between!
 

The most interesting journey,
In which,we don’t know,
What happens in the next moment,
Is nothing,but life!
 

Our money and property,
Wont come,till our destination!
Our eminent laptops and mobiles,
 

Works better,even without us!
Our beauty and pride,
Dies,even before us.
 

We must know the magic,
To love every moment,like a kid,
To adore,even the foe,
And to award a pleasingsmile,
For our hardships!
 

A TTR,
named”God”,
Has given us ticket,
Called “Birth”,
To travel in a train,
Named “Life”,
Only to love and dig every second.
 

But not to sit in a corner
At tuff times.
Rather,we must learn,
To smile at the trouble!

MY EXPECTATIONS

    MY EXPECTATIONS       
 

It was my fault,
To expect my parents,
To bring me up in the way,
In which I love to live!
 

It was my blunder,
To expect my pets,
To play with me in the custom,
In which I prescribe them!
 

It was my mistake,
To expect my friends,
To share with me everything,
 

Which I do with them!
It was my flaw,
To expect my society,
To behave in an adjusting manner,
In which I am accustomed to!
 

But,now I decided,
To adjust with them all,
Not only to earn their love,
But also to know myself!

Long Road

Long Road

Smell of freedom still in my mind
I’ll use this time to sit back & unwind

Certainly not visible what the future will hold
I know when I get out it’s sure to be cold

I missed my birthday & surely Halloween
But I’ll be home for the thanksgiving scene

It’s only September 12, some time to go
Use my time wisely, and got some writing to show

I talked to my mother, the first time in a while
She told me she missed me and that made me smile

Can’t wait to go to her & see new things
Have a mess of sodas and grub on some wings

QUEENS OF THE WORLD

QUEENS OF THE WORLD



"You bloom with the sun's rays,
And looks very cute,
The bees feed on you,
As you are very sweet.
 

You then goes to the ,
Deep hairs of a lady.
 

But,you die in the eve,
As your colour and you too fade.
 

You cute flowers,
you were the queens of the world,
Who rules this world,
Just a day !!"
