Out of action



Smile when you start to walk
Cry when you fail to talk
Rejoice when work is complete
Try to meet the friends and greet

Such has to be the life and its way
You may have to move and stay
Take everybody along with mission
Accept the blame wholly if time comes in for admission

Live happily with life
 even when it is full of strife
 hate and love
 it is make and believe

 Smile when you need to
 cry when you bleed to
 why think of world?
 When it is full of deception and very cold

I have no reason
To hate a person
It is his choice
Whether to break or keep the promise

I shall show no weakness
Bear the smile and shine on face
Why show it to people and cry?
Instead why not fight it out and try

Some of the things go unsaid
They are understood as implied
We do when it warrants action
There is no use to offer reaction

Success if at all may certain come
Embrace the failure and welcome
Either way you are center of the attraction
Success and failure may remain out of question

I hold technical qualification like Diploma in Radio/engineering .I have done English and Hindi stenography as well. I had mastered the art in Morse telephony too. I am associated with several welfare organizations and served long time as Union leader too. I am at present working as hobby writer. I write poems on various subjects and invite suggestions from all the quarters. I have written one memoir named “As I see it” and ready for publication. One interesting part of writing I would love to share with all my reader friends. I am not sure weather it may be the same case with all as I do not want to be caught in any controversy. When I sit on my personal computer, there is absolutely no thought in mind as to what is to be picked up as thought and written. These all things I leave it to the discretion of almighty to fill my mind with relevant ideas. So far I have been graced by Him and as result able to compose about 4000 poems. I have be awarded with 4 achievement award from the www.ezinearticles.com for successfully meeting with their standard. I am writing on many sites so as to be associated with reader friends all over the world. I am thankful to all those who have supported me in my initial days. more…
