The earth is burning,
The soil is dying,
Masses are tormented,
By the Flames
In the North.
The Sun
Showering embers,
The winds Blowing fire,
The Home is in peril,
Our home in the north.
Heaven we seek,
To the south ,
We Retreat
But the heart never blooms
Away From the north.
And then we see
The monsoons
From the heaven,
Quenched our Land
And our hearts
In the North.
Flowing through the mystic mountains
From struggle of ice to preserving flow
Soul vapourises to attain Salvation.
Infancy , youth, Old age
Lost in the wheel of time.
The soul is now ready,
To renounce the worldly Clothes
So divine!
Earth and water
the ornaments of this soul.
Wind and fire
Gave strength to withhold
Its difficult to renounce
But its the destiny of this soul
Panacea or curse
Only the God knows.
With the grief
Of loosing loved ones,
Life thawed away
From material To spiritual realm!
With the hope,
To find that Bliss
Again.

Focus focus, you
Unstable mind!
Chasing vicarious pleasures,
Away from the book of mine.
Focus focus, you Crazy mind!
Swimming in Paneer gravy,
Tasting noodles, slurping ice cream,
Aah! Far away from this important subject of mine.
Thinking cap, uncapped
You won , I surrender ,
Alas! So disappointing
Is this Brain of mine!

The space where,
Respect lingers in the valley of Religions,
Love flows in the River of struggle,
Lotus blooms in the pond of compassionate tears
Where is that paradise on earth?
The place where,
Humanity lingers freely,
Guided by the light of that one God.
A mother is not worried,
For the protection of her little child.
Where is that Paradise on earth?
A heaven where,
There is no Bloodshed,
There is only greed of sharing love,
There is only support for the weak,
And the people are not separated by wealth.
Where is that Utopian World?

Life
Transforming Efforts into contented victories,
Persevering in the Ambience of Life’s adversities,
Is the way of Life.
Courage
Fear captures you, in mind
And then tries to feed your heart
Courage saves you at last.

She is a symbol of Almighty,
Have the power to create.
When God became enervated,
He passed his power to Her
O Mother!
The epitome of Sacrifice,
Your love is so pure and Divine
That it outshines, even
The God’s Light.

The epitome of absolute Power,
Goddess Shakti in disguise,
The powerhouse of our society,
And the support to all Men.
O Goddess!
In these dark times,
Saving your Pride and Honor,
Will only save our society and the world.
So we take oath, to save you,
Oath of all Fathers, sons,
Husbands, Brothers and Friends.
P.S.- Women are the powerhouse of our society and saving them can only save our future. Poem dedicated to my mother, sisters, friends and all the women for their courage and for their sacrifice for us.

O Nature! your ocular beauty,
Fills my heart with sheer bliss.
Your glowing drops of dew on grass,
With cool breeze sweep my sorrows, at last.
O Nature! you benevolent host,
Your Omens show me the path to flow,
Your Sparrows’ hopping,
And your pigeons’ cooing ,
Give me the symphony
In the morning cold.
O Nature! You Enchanting soul,
You turn my thoughts,
From dissapointment to Hope.
Your aroma of wet earth,
Superseding my agony,
Give me the courage,
In the pursuit of divine soul.

Life’s agonies can be so profound
That might burn you in Inferno’s hall.
Lift yourself above the ground,
Every time from a deep fall.
You are a mythical Phoenix ,in disguise
Resurrect yourself from the ashes
Transform yourself from the clouds, so dense!
Reigniting your fire, giving off flashes.
Your past can haunt you in testing times,
Wear equanimity and hold your intrpid strings.
Raise your head to see the light, so sublime,
And take a flight by burning your wings.
The flight to the future from Karmic present,
The flight of persevere life, so meant.
P.S.-Tried to create this sonnet with a rhyming pattern of ababcdcdefefgg.
In response to writing201:Poetry.

Your love was a song,
that stayed in my heart,
Forever long
Your face was a light,
In my life ,so bright.
But those moments had gone,
And you left me to mourn.
I still remember that winter,
So cold and dead.
So proud was your face,
But lying on the grave.
I remember those days,
Your hands on my face.
When you sulked your pain,
But never showed it on your face.
I remember those days
When your agony was so deep
That stopped you to sleep.
But you bestowed your life
To see my eternal smile.
I still see you in the trance
In the fog of my memories
Standing in the meadow
And smiling on my shadow
Your message for me is Clear
To live your life, my dear!
Tears and joy will come and go,
Your life for others is the motto.
Your sacrifice is a sunshine
That will guide my mind,
On this path of my life,
On the path beyond this life.
P.S- In the memory of my mother who died after suffering from kidney failure, few years ago.
