It's Autumn Again

As summer bids a tender farewell, once again this time
Autumn unveils with beautiful chromatic colors in line
Golden leaves fall gracefully in grief from heaven to earth
Covering the shivering earth with a blanket of crimson leaves

Leaves fall, as if they were never meant for withering trees
But to break free and sail in the silent autumn breeze
The music of the falling leaves in autumn rings a bell
Of memories sad or happy that my heart can only tell
 
Birds glide to find a new nest, through the blue radiant sky
In search of warmth and shelter before the autumn passes by
Swaying wind paints the boundless horizon in crimson colors
Like an artist painting a paradise, with a brilliant brush
 
Soon the last crimson leaf will slowly fall to the ground
To mark the arrival of white winter, once again this time….

Wandering River

Life
flows like
a wandering river
finding its way from
wild adolescence to calm and serene sea.
With twists and
turns it shall flow
to finally merge
into the
sea.

Why ?

Rarity is what everyone seeks,
yet people follow the common freaks.
Why what you want and what you do are different!

Truth is what people want to listen,
yet all people do is lie as tradition.
Why what you want and what you do are different!

Help is what people seek when in trouble,
yet people think hundred times before offering one.
Why what you want and what you do are different!

Peace is what all people crave,

yet people find reasons for the disharmony.

Why what you want and what you do are different!

Unconditional love is all what people crave,
yet people love with all the conditions they can dare.
Why what you want and what you do are different!

 

Honesty is what people appreciate,

yet dishonesty prevails deep in their hearts. 

Why what you want and what you do are different!

 

Give what you want, and you shall have the same,
'Cause sooner or later what you give is what you get.
 

You can...but you can't...

You can teach someone to hate

But you can't teach someone to love

You can teach someone to be smart

But you can't teach someone to be innocent

You can teach someone to be ignorant

But you can't teach someone to be kind

You can teach someone to be angry

But you can't teach someone to have patience

We are born with the knowledge of the latter

But we learnt the former with the passing time

And now, no matter how much we want to relearn

What once was so deeply engraved in our heart, we can't

Cause most beautiful things in life can't be taught

They just happen, and when they do

Everything else around seems to be so beautiful…..

Sea and the Soul..

 

Sitting on sand at the coast on an evening,
I was amazed to see the beauty of the sparkling sea;

The roaring sound of the water was a melody to my ears,
As if it was whispering something to me;

The coastal wind was brushing through my hair,
As if it was telling me I was not alone there;

Every time the sea water touched my feet,
I felt it wanted to take me with it somewhere;

I wanted to see the mystery that vast ocean held,
I wanted to go, but something held me back;

As I looked around I saw no one,
Far across in the sky the sun was about to meet the ocean;

And I was sure, it was my soul,
Longing to be heard, longing to break free...
