To my delight



t makes me to cry more

I search soul and try to explore
What might have gone wrong at that time?
Why people should resort to cruelty sometimes?

I try to evaluate the pain and sufferings
What was wrong with his message of offering?
Compassion and peace to all with Almighty's blessings
I wondered and knelt down with pain for people's doing

All messiahs, prophets descended the earth with one mission
Take out the blind faith and teach them the power of confession
No word is as holy as confession itself if done with earnest desire
Surrender to thee with no more unholy acts before life expires

I read and reread about divine light
No where I found hatred to my delight
“Love the neighbor and love the poor”
“Serve the man if he is suffering next door”

All god people here in recent times have met with ugly death
Life mission incomplete and fired from gun with bullets
‘God give him good sense as they are misguided”
The last words from their mouth have certainly provided

Why someone should feel hurt from my utterances?
Why should I try to create hatred with harsh sentences?
I love to read all such sentences which forbid
Make the people to understand and wisely follow the lead

I shall bow my head to any faith that preaches love
Shuns the violence and firmly believes
In his power and blindly follows on what is good
Digests its teachings and consumes it as rich food

No one knows about who controls the universe?
Why do we still reflect unawareness with fears?
Let us not divide ourselves and create golden cages!
No one may remember what we wrote on pages

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.
