The Anthem of Soul

Actually, Life is very short
But we can make it so sweet.
We bring and take nothing with us
So why fight among ourselves?
Hearts of everyone are of the same shape.
Colour of blood is also the same
Wind and rain are there for one and all
Nature doesn't deny right of use to anyone.
Why do we bother for a land piece?
Let us work for world peace.
Try to break the barriers of caste and creed
We all are one of the same national breed.
Let us sow the seed of love everywhere
Let love be our soul's anthem now... and here.

Nature's Message

Fishes splashing in a silvery fall
White clouds adrift in procession
on mountain ridges, attract all.
Clusters of flowers welcome dawn
Dew drops glitter on the sprawling lawn.

Darkness flees the sleepy hilltops
Golden ball on horizon
augur the day well
The world wakes up again,
to start anew its journey
Nature gives it company
but with its warning bell
To be cautious and not silly.

Let's walk steady with care
Not ignore what we think as small
For each small has its own beauty
Let's love each and all, each and all.
