A small sapling breathes
Giggles with life around
Blends with the soul of soil
Which Cleanses it with holy water
Showered with blessings
Of the photons
Cuddles the tiny droplets
Floating in the morning air
An innocent child
Looks up directly at sunshine
Grows up to become a sage
While it’s roots store wisdom
A selfless sage in meditation
Blows life from within
And surrender timber
Even after death.

Far from home
With my spirits unscathed
I embarked upon a journey
Uphill, on a Callous road
As time elapsed
Each step brought confusion
My fatigue birthed illusion
As I struggled down the road
Then Someone joined me
A creature, selflessly
A pillar to lift my spirit
A dog shared my ordeal
Our steps synchronised
Our spirits became one
Our faces glowed with pride
And we hardly cared for summit

As haze dwindles
A glowing reverie
Reveals itself
With yellow blooms
A yearning, So strong
To Break the shackles
Of a grieving soul
And lie among
The glistening, Yellow petals!

Quarantined in a room
With many smiling friends
Bob asks me to sit,
“Forget your worries, kid”
Simon loves to spin
Blowing air with a grin
He loves to keep me cold
A brother whose story untold
There’s a Mattress
In the room
Who loves to make me sleep
A mother’s lap to see dreams
A world full of souls
A book-shelf full of stories
Friends like Bob the chair
Selfless Simon, the fan who dares.
Loneliness is just a myth
For me, it’s all about grit
There’s a life in every corner
There’s a world inside a room

From the extreme chaos
Around a Yellow star
Dust and smoke
Churned with gravity
From afflictions to bliss
The life took shape
A rare miracle happened
With the birth of the blue
The Blue is still spinning
Dancing on the tune
Celebrating the bliss
Along with the moon
A dance in the wild
Around a yellow bonfire
Ignoring our sins
May Surpass our existence

Trapped behind the walls
Uncertain about the future
Happiness may seem obscured
But Happiness is relentless
May even defeat time
Happiness resides where there is light
Memories of the past
Etched in our minds
May bring a flashing smile
Happiness is never alone
Seldom lingers inside solitary doors
Happiness is sharing or to share is happiness
Happiness is real when shared– Christopher McCandless

These are some of the wonderful people I came across on wordpress platform. Though I can’t thank enough to all my followers and all the bloggers out there who make this place an awesome one.
Sharing is the best gift we can give to each other and bloggers know it well. In these testing times Let’s hold our hands virtually and spread happiness to fight with this pandemic together.
And make this nightmare, a little less severe by writing and sharing our works.
Keep Sharing Happiness!
Cool breeze is blowing
Cleansed with dew on shining leaves
Pierces skin with bliss

A nightmare stretching
Reality fading to illusion
Hopelessness taking a toll
On all the melancholic souls
Craving for a crack
To seep into a deep Slumber
Where the aching souls
Cleanse their burning core
May this ordeal
Squeeze in time
And when we wake up
We see the other side

In order to know him
You have to become a disbeliever
Walk through a sceptical path
Through the maze of darkness
Seek the realm of science
Surrendering to knowledge
Because it is only
Going through darkness
You might find him
And find light
When we were kids, we had so much faith on our parents. They were our Gods and no matter what, they protected us, fulfilled our needs. We had so much happiness in their company.
But as we grow up and get expose to knowledge of our surroundings, we tend to lose that faith with which we were born. We still love our parents but only able to convince ourselves in one or the other way that God doesn’t exist.
The reason behind our sudden disbelieving is our failures, our loss, our defeats. Sometimes, some of us believe so much in science that we think that there is no need of God in the realms of laws of nature.
But believe me or not the first step towards believing is disbelieving. You have to seek the realm of science in order to understand the nature of any supreme being if he exist because maybe we are still in the phase of that dark tunnel.
We are going through a dark time, a pandemic which has defeated our knowledge of science. We still are far away from that ultimate truth, knowledge or science that can fight these situations effectively.
Till then a person who is on his death bed, the only solace for him is his belief on God. God is peace to him, he maybe a state of mind but it is definitely our cure of grief.
Therefore we need God like never before. So all sceptics in the world,maybe you are going in the right direction. Just follow science and have respect for everyone because it is only through humbleness we can see and understand clearly.
Hold on to
Your beautiful reveries.
This nightmare is melting
With your tears, Quenching.
Love may not exist
Without tearful loss
Life is an Adventure
Comfort is chaos
Surrender yourself
To the tune of cosmos
Whose every cataclysm
Is the beginning of order
