Vagaries of Life

I thought, how difficult it is to live life,
Then I saw people suffering trying to enjoy each and every moment of life.

I thought, how difficult it is to find love,
Then I saw a self less mother loving a new born.

I thought, how difficult it to mix with strangers,
Then I saw few poor kids playing merrily in
the mud.

Frustrated, I thought It's difficult to earn money,
Then I met a man rich because of inheritance.

For my every question there was an answer.
And every answer asked more questions.

Some where my heart said,
It's you to decide ,are you going to ask questions or find answers?

My mind replied,
These are the vagaries of life,
You ask questions and try finding answers.
You find answers,
and then they ask you questions.

Empty spaces

The world is alive,
Universe is a space.
What I am fighting is just a empty space.
Empty space, engulfing every thing.
Empty space, full of promise.
Empty space, full of challenge.

It's open and it's closed,
it's dark and it's bright,
It's happy and it's sad.
What I am fighting is just a empty space.

Asking for a place in my life ,
Asking for a piece of my life.
Empty space is a part of my life.
My life is a part of empty space.
What I am fighting is just a empty space.

Tragedy of a free Bird

I was a free bird,
Running and flying around.
Flying in the sky and playing with the clouds.
The world was my stage and sky was my theater.

Still I was a free bird,
Running and flying around.
Things were going well,
I had enough flowers to eat and
honey to drink.
I was enjoying, enjoying over time.

I was a free bird,
Needed no friends.
I will do what I like.
I create fashions and set new trends.
Bad habits started creeping in.
Hugh ego started seeping in.
Still I was free bird.
I will do what I like.

Suddenly One day,
My feathers started falling.
No asking for help,
What ever they say,
My ego came in my way.

But still I was a free bird,
I will do what I like.

Slowly health startirded falling,
Whom should I call,
Friends? there were not many.

Need not tell you what happened next.
Health took its toll,
And put me to rest.

Now I am really a free bird
And I don't have much to do.

ACCEPTANCE

We are always wondering why it happens always with us,
Why we are scared of every one and everybody.
Why there are answers for others
and questions for us.
Happiness for others,
And pain for us.
Why it so that in happiness we find sorrow ,
And in sorrow a tragedy.
There is no answer,
Try finding answers and you will come across more questions.
The key seems to be in 'ACCEPTANCE'.
At least that is what I am told.
Accepting the situation, person, happiness and pain.
Not just acceptance, but to accept and act accordingly.
You are in pain, accept it.
Stop dwelling on pain and start finding ways to overcome pain.
You are happy,
Accept it and plan to retain the happiness as much as you can.
Let's make a beginning,
And accept that we need to start accepting.

Talent

Every body tells me,
I have got talent..
If it's there, then
why it's so silent?
Still searching....
And will keep on searching,
Till one day will realize,
It's not talent, stupid!
That breaks mountain and bridges rivers,
It's pure guts,
which keeps you out of rut.
Not the absence of fear.
You lie down, but never say never.

You

You
The blowing wind sings
when you are with me.
The burning sun sprays water
when you are with me.
I am lost when you are with me,
I will prefer to remain lost
rather than you being not with me.

Love

To express my love,
Words are insufficient,
To express my love,
Actions are incapable,
To express my love,
Money is insignificant,
Sweetheart, just look into my eyes.
You would find love that is magnificient.
