MOTHER

Mother alone knows
Lessons alien to books
For she saw hardships
Unseen ever by mortal eyes

Deep within her bosom
Written in scars is a poem
Alas ! with little rhyme
Its title is LIFE.

INFANT WEEPS....

Oh! Dad, I am scared
That thou may be displeased
Thine frown and wrath
Orphans me to death
Alone in the middle of a desert
I stand gazing into the vast
The earth beneath slipping
My tender feet trembling
The swirling wind of worthlessness
Devouring me into its emptiness.

INFANT SINGS....

Oh! Dear dad
I will be thine pride
Thy love, hug and care
Is all my only desire

I have no fear
As long as you are near
Thou protect me from evil
And thy can beat any devil.

CONVERSING WITH MY LORD

Deny me a place in paradise
I have no complaints
I accept my little merit
But a place in my beloved's heart
That one day I can stand before you
With my head held high.

REFLECTIONS

-- One who hates an individual probably has not understood what a human being actually is. Not to forget hate is anyway subtly self destructive.--

-- One of the reasons for our ingratitude to life is our limited exposure to it.--

--He who gets stuck with the mortals misses the divine--

--Nothing is more rewarding than hardships if we can steadfastly endure it--

--Delusions are often more real than the real.--

--It ain't about the result...It is all about whether you faced it with all your might...head to head...eyes to eyes....and fought till you collapsed. If yes your victory is only a mater of time.
Later....the grander.....--
