Everything To Nothing In A Lifetime

Born as a cute infant,
I am beautiful,
Or handsomeness personified,
To the eyes that behold me,
Which are a never ending number.

As days,weeks,months pass,
I realize my seat,
As the center piece of affection,
Could not possibly topple,

The Art of Non-Violence

We humans are born,
With the universally sole purpose of,
Inheriting this vast and beautiful,
Life sustaining planet,
For a short period of time,
Till we finally pass on,
While at the same time,
Contributing to some or the other legacy,
For...

The Pure Embrace of Solace

More than a decade ago,
On a warm Sunny day,
We confronted each other,
For the first time,
I realised suddenly that,
My past,present and future,
Had converged irrevocably,
To this one moment in time.

I had found the ONE,
Meant to bring...

The Family Outcast

Beautiful was my childhood,
A lot of siblings,
To care of the baby,
That was me,
Everyone was at my beck and call,
I was the world around my family.

Then one by one they turned away,
To a life where career or marriage took them,
Thus...

A Victory in Defeat

They approached each battle,
As fearless warriors,
With the strength of their skills,
And the weaknesses of their opponents.

They were the Magnificient Eleven,
As at each stage the nemesis fell,
With no answers to our heroes efforts,
But...

A Day For Humanity

Humans are separated,
By borders,seas and oceans,
By languages,cultures and society,
By colour,creed and caste,
By poverty,wealth and education,
Even by food and clothes.

What would it take,
For us humans beings,
To transcend without...

A Leader For the Masses

For half a century,
He met thousands in a day,
Listening to sounds of sorrow,
Giving solace to hearts,
Never tired of serving,
His undivided loving attention.

His family waited patiently,
For a rare glimpse,
Of a husband or a father,
But...

The Rains Of Succour

The heat is relentless,
Going about ones business,
Is becoming quite tiresome,
Will the suns fury abate,
Or the humid conditions recede,
For us people to live and thrive.

For employees from residence to work,
For students from home to...

The Trophy Of A Troubled Couple

There once was a beautiful child,
Her parents very dutiful and fond,
But they both needed to,
Run the race of life,
So they would decide,
Whose turn it was daily,
To babysit the child,
Sometimes by mutual consent,
Or else by toss of a...

The Brothers of Arabia

We were born of the desert,
One from the north,
Other from the south,
The Arabian gulf in between,
Kept our destinies at bay,
For the correct moment in time,
When we would cross each others path.

We grew into young boys,
We shared the...

The Extend of Xtend

Two IT tech wizards,
Came together in the the summer of 1997,
They brought out the best in each other,
Which led to the christening of their offspring,
Which today is known as,
The Behemoth - Xtend Technologies.

As their minds soared,

The Rise and Fall Of the Pandemic

The year was AD 2019,
The Universe was going about as usual,
Not a single soul knew,
What lay around the corner,
An entity of darkness and death,
Masquerading as a virus in a bat,
Spread forth its wings,
And took to the skies,
Encompassing...

The Balance Of Nature

Centuries may change,
The Forward march of mankind,
Never seems to halt,
Be it from numerous inventions,
Be it from human flight,
To ever modernising cities,
With higher standards of living.

Where cities must grow,
Nature must go on a...

The Divine Dancer

Why are thou like this?
So perfect in every step ,
Thy movements personifying
A passion not known before

Yet thy has not done justice to thyself
and the people who aspire to reach you
If you close the eyes and concentrate
at that one point...

I admire them,

Alexander of Macedon
Bonaparte of France
Hitler of Germany
But yet over them all

He is the master of masters
of time
of the past
of the present
of the future
His glory is...

Not a soul in site ,

Some are jokes,some are cries,some are gossip,

my mind takes me to Her,

Heart To Heart

A father to his daughter
A mother to her son
A fiance to the betrothed
A priest to a sinner
A friend to a companion
A general to the soldiers
A boss to the best employees
A person to a pet
A teacher to the pupil
A husband to his wife

Echelons Of Power

The workers are the lifeline of an enterprise,
The caretaker can only organise the workers,
The owner aprises and directs the caretaker,
But when the fruits of fortune are against the winds ,
And cannot be borne by the workers,
Then utter...

Road To Oblivion

Gone are the days

when hope used to rise

with the early rays of the sun

the night seems to give shelter

from the cruel truths of the day

not a day passes without

the feeling of mounting despondency

and wishful thinking akin to a...

The Devoted Parents

They gave me life
They gave me love
They gave me food
They gave me shelter

Why wasn't it enough
Why did I cry
Why did I sulk
Why did I despair

They gave me happiness
They gave me meaning
They gave me education
They gave me moral...
