Life is…

As the dawn breaks,

And the birds chirp,

We wake up slowly

To the Morning breeze.

The sun shines with higher glow,

Reminds us that night was low,

The life is always fast as time

That doesn’t wait for even a dime.

The rustle and bustle to the work

Make us feel we are on the clock

Life is to take up the hardship

Plough, Grow and Reap.

As the day pass on with gleaming hue

To not stop us and become slow

We learn a thousand many

To remember for what life always is..

Longing in the Loneliness

Sometimes into the starry sky

When you look upon with gleaming eye.

The twinkling things that you find

With the silvery moon glowing bind…

Often you lift your hand

To touch the dreamy land

And lo! What you get so

The moon is so far to go…

Sudden shudder enters your heart.

When you can’t touch the moon apart.

A silent tear always crosses

From the border of weary eyes.

The dream born in your heart

Slowly fades away from the part.

Still you wish, hope and dream.

To get the cherry on the cream.

More alone you become

Then the more you will learn.

That still we are longing in heart

What we can’t get in the teary earth.

Summers Alone…

Life you make yours

Can be as alone as summers.

No matter how much you rain

With clouds of happiness, it always drains

You try to love and cherish

But all that good suddenly perish.

Sometimes such prayers go unanswered

And those times  make you bothered.

Hope is that never dies.

Only the eyes that always cries.

You keep trying to warm

Your wintry heart

All that is left is the dried path

The withered leaves are like

Chapters of your life

When the summers are always

Alone as Moonless Night.
