Harvesting Dissatisfaction
What would you feel about the temple
You built if it is full of webs?
What would you feel about the book
You wrote if it gathered dust?
What would you feel about the child
You begot if it went mate-less?
What would you feel about the person
You loved if no requite of love?
Unasked, we do such things in life
And harvest dissatisfaction.

To Feel At Peak Is To Feel Good.
In each stage you evolve about yourself
And set your preferences for vocation,
Hobbies, and values to beultimate,
With the beliefs that you’ve reached the peak.
You do this exercise at every stage
As if that is final, which is not to be.
You believe that you’re at peak at each time
For you feel good in forming such beliefs.
You won’t be the person you expect to be.
You aren’t the person you’d expected to be.
If you review what you wrote sometime back
You cannot do it without amendments.

Friendships And Relationships
We don’t show ourselves as we are.
We want the people’s acceptance.
We want to meet their expectation,
Which is a demand made on us.
Else we should not mind losing them.
Relationships differ from friendships.
Friendships last where much is concealed.
Relationships last where much is revealed.

Spouses Are Partners.
My children must live long after me.
Their children must prosper after me.
No such aspirations for my spouse.

To Carve A Name
Aggressive marketing promotes sales.

Apathy Of Good Men
A few bad men; many good men;
The society is inflicted
Not with misdeeds of the bad men
But with the apathy of good men.

Adopt One To Serve
Parents brought you up; you must see them off.
Childless, you must adopt one to bring up..
Parentless, you must adopt one, to look after.

Good Citizens
A country is rich with the citizens
Who don’t spend because they can afford to,
Who won’t buy because they are able to
And who don’t grab things because they have hands.

Crazy For Titles
Some want to add a title to their names.
They want to be called with the title, then
By the title alone and beam thus called.
Insecure fellows go after titles.

Man’s Demands
I must exist, that others should know.

Nature At The Hand Of Man
Man is more damaging
Than managing the Nature.
Man is more straining

Good Manners
Between good manners and bad manners lies
A fine line that tells you good manners are
Doing petty sacrifices so that

Love Gives Meaning To Life.
Be there nights to enjoy the moon.
Be there sleeps to enjoy the nights,
And hard works to relish the sleeps.
Be there progress to enjoy works.
Be there peers to gaze the progress,
For which be your love for the peers.

To love, Shed Self-love.
Unless one stops loving oneself,
One cannot love well another.
Love demands some sacrifices
For which selfishness must drain down.
Sexual love and mother’s love do it.
Let love of other kinds apes them.

Be With Him
Be on God’s side
And accept what happens.
Don’t expect Him
To be on your side, and blame.
It’s a nice way
Of not being angry
For anything that goes wrong,
Which is His and not yours.

Wait. You’ll Come Up.
Resilience is a law of nature.
Plants have it; so do animals and man.
It happens though the time it takes varies.
Patience is the key to unlock it with.
Have you fall down? Wait! You will wake up.
If you are not, your children will do.

To Stop Self-pity
I pity my son, chronically ill,
And, hence, his children with no fortune.
I pity my daughter, a caged bird
And also her son whose love was not paid.
I pity my wife, a cancer patient
When I detected a tumor in me.
Tendency to pity them has gone up
To put a full stop to my self-pity.

Faith Is Lost As Wholesale
How to cure has gone
And how to make money has come in.
How to educate has gone
And how to capitalize has come in.

And how to exploit has come in.

And insecurity has set in.

The Moving Mass
Be they caterpillars or ants,

With the same pace and same rhythm
Without minding where they’re led to.

I lost my drive; I lost my fire;

When my thyroids were removed
For cancer; with that attachment too.

When you fail to do what you’ve intended,
That strengthens your inability to do,
Your temperament to insincerity

Wounds are not cured by drugs and doctors
But by healing mechanisms.

Don’t Count On Offspring
I beget a child to bear my stamp,
To represent me after my exit,
And to inherit mine; it is my wish.
It is my heir and my nominee.
I can act only as its guardian.
It has more right on me than I on it.
I invest love without a guarantee,
And persevere in its wellbeing.
Old lions are dying being unattended.
One is lucky should one get the child’s care.

Curses Inevitable
A merciless mother
Is a curse to her child,
Being not replaceable
And not the child’s making.
A merciless offspring
Is a curse to parents,
Being not replaceable
And not retrievable.
Such like misfortunes are
In plenty, God’s making.

A Solitary Living
Living alone is now a new life style
Living alone is not feeling alone,
Nor feeling lonely or isolated either.
Singleton is a self-imposed life style.
Time and space are in absolute control.
Freedom of movements needs no adjustments.
Socialization is on one’s own term.
As a proprietor, he/she answers no partner.
Is this a trend showing intolerance?
Is tolerance in deterioration?
The solitary living has potential
To maroon you from the mate’s companionship.

Every stimulant is an irritant.

The Society Must Condemn.
It is a disgrace to have servants in rags,
Not to say about one’s family,
For the society values the one that way.
Equally it must be a disgrace to one
Who neglects or abandons one’s parents.
The society must treat such ones likewise.

Siblings And Offspring
He is my brother; she is my sister.
They have same blood as I, drawn from parents.
He is my son and she is my daughter.
They have blood of which mine is only a half.
Though of same blood, siblings are loose in knots.
Though with half blood, offspring are a tight knot.
Siblings are like branches from a fork.
Parent and child link is like root and stem.
