Reflection

Reflect – I do!

As my days hurry to tomorrow

At the summit of my vision, strength I borrow

To bury the ‘yesterday’, the ‘sadness’ and the ‘sorrow’

To reminisce the good times, to sing like a sparrow

To muster the seed of greatness

To overcome feelings of anxious

What is ahead of me, I haven’t seen and touched

Bigger and better than, the past I have dispatched

Stronger the challenge, rewards I will watch

Thrilling moments, glorious the catch

I will love me, to see me, beyond the shallow self

New decade, new façade, new parade

New everything, until I will engulf

New promise, new circle of life

The peaks I will climb

The landscape I will glide.

Yes, reflect I do

From the past

To the moment

To the days ahead of me, the days ahead of you!

Mind over matter!

The debate, environmental issue
The flu, got us running after tissue
Global warming
Rings a bell alarming
Or it is disarming?
But it is,
The latest concern
As we discern

In the past
Though didn’t last
concerns were
the ozone layer
the atomic bomb
the nuclear
that we succumb
till we get dull,
we became numb

but, we never thought of addressing
real concerning
An “idea poisoning”
Though alarming
Though unnerving
And the danger it is posing

No research lab, no scientist
No mere funding
‘cause no profit

But it killed in billions
It is killing in millions – every day

“The man is he so as he thinks”
Reflection to the world that he brings
When it is sound and sane
Or rubbish mundane
Or waging war
Or peace preacher
Springs out of the mind
It is born out of an idea
That is where the real self reside
The gloom or euphoria

Then why not give attention
Instead of fighting with ammunition
To wage a war that is already lost
Why not fight, with different
weapon
The real demon,
Demon of the mind
The real source of corruption
Or prince of peace and kind

An idea poisoning, that corrupts the noble
That disgraces the honor
Imprison, till disable

Fight the global warning
That left us crazy creatures
Dilute the poisoning
We may evolve our features!

Pendulum

Tick-tock, click-clock, left-right
Non-stop that you might
Create
A time slot
Or be created by the count
Of your pattern
As humanity - define
The sense of time!
Then you defer
The motionless silent
That present
In the other world
In the other light

Till then
You strive, to break free
To loose flee, with much glee
You try, to run away
So, you sway,
Left-right!

Then, they say, “You create”
A sense of time
Studied your pattern
You are sublime
Bound to the wall
Until, time creates
A motion
To bring about motionless
Quiet moment!

Till then,
You go on! With waves of thoughts
I go on! With debates of wants
