SPEAKING TREE

I saw a  beautiful  and an  amazing tree ,

And that my  friends was the speaking tree,

I visited it occasionally and the tweets I heard ,

Were Calming  and my heart was stirred .

Two months ago  it called  me endearingly ,

And that's when I became one of the family ,

A small fresh little twig I was to begin with 

Its nourishing love  gave me  more breadth and  width .

The big and small branches spread around  me 

Loved and cared for each other on the speaking tree.

The weak little new twigs entwined with them ,

They  are taught to grow into GODS pure stems.

The conversations we have hack logics galore.

We learn  from each other more and more .

We differ and opine and agree at places ,

It sometimes feel we were talking to real faces .

To live with  with the spiritual support of this tree,

Its an awesome , amazing  and eye opening journey ,

We are all perfectly imperfect in our own way,

Each with new leaves and bends as we sway .

The wind  ,the sun ,the rain help us to grow,

They  symbolize  love ,peace and joy  for all you know,

The storm and thunder teach us to be resilient ,

We learn to mind ourselves and not to fall and bend.

We strive to grow with inner freedom up and very high 

Spreading our branches  towards the open sky .

Anger , fear  , hate   and jealousy are never  around ,

It's hope ,faith and trust that makes  us so sound .

I pray to  God almighty to give this tree a clear vision

So that its branches are nurtured  to reach their destination,

The destination  of being in our inner conscious state,

To practice good karma and realize that GOD is great .

                                           THANK YOU SPEAKING TREE

WHO AM I ?

Some times I wonder WHO AM I ? 

This question at times makes me cry,

You ask me why?

Because I am told  I am the invisible  SOUL 

And I belong to GOD in the sky!

                                      BUT 

My mum and dad said I was their PRINCESS ,

A loving  SISTER to my brothers  I was I guess.

 My innocent childhood days were the best ,

 A dutifull DAUGHTER was what I became next .

Years passed  by  I blossomed and grew ,

Became a responsible and  loving  WIFE ,very true ,

My gracious man gave me his mum and dad then ,

Dedicating my care to them as DIL became my aim again .

My profession made me appear as a SAVIOR of kids,

I was even a TEACHER  to many aspiring students ,

A kind person ,a good FRIEND  was what I did try to become,

Life taught me new lessons to make me wholesome .

Then God gifted me with my own pieces of flesh and blood,

MOTHERHOOD was filled with  the river of love like a flood,

The triumphs and tribulations of parenting  my sons began ,

With  all  my efforts I imbibed in them the values of a good  man .

My sons then brought home their  pretty wife's ,

Gifted  me with  beloved  God sent daughters for life . 

I  am now their OTHER MOTHER ( MIL) with whom they share and care,

 God blessed me  with lovely grand children ,

 Made me a doting  GRANDMOTHER  in this life.

So now WHO AM I  ?

Is the question that keeps on coming back ,

Am i still the INVISIBLE  IMMORTAL SOUL ?

Who belongs to God in  the sky ?

Whom HE  chose to assign these  changing roles  In life's  track .

The souls of righteous are immortal and divine ,

Give me the wisdom God to understand your guiding sign 

To act as an awakened soul  and follow the light that shines 

                                                  YES 

I am the IMMORTAL SOUL  living  in this mortal human body ,

Can you see me  ? i mean can you this immortal soul ? 

I am   the spiritual part  of humans, separable from the body at death, 

I am  susceptible to happiness or misery in a future state on rebirth .

I exist  here within you . 

I am  your soul  (jiva, Ātman and "purusha ) meaning THE INDIVIDUAL SELF 

I AM THE IMMORTAL SOUL 

My qualities are - 

Being    - SAT 

Consciousness - CHIT 

Bliss or love - ANANDA 

                                                   

LIVE , LAUGH , LOVE !

Life is too short to waste , let us live it  with full taste .

Forget the past ,enjoy the present ,don't think of the future in haste ,

Remember God sent you here across  so many  many miles 

To spread love ,cheer ,happiness and tons and tons of smiles 

Don't worry over small things,

They really  never mattered 

So don't clip your happy wings ,

They are not worth feeling shattered.

Life is too short to sweat the small stuff,

Live life in the  present  moment ,

Forget that the past was  tough ,

This never  helps to create a happy present .

Follow your hearts desires ,

Do the things you like to do .

Don't put off  your passionate fires ,

This moment is  only for you .

No one  knows what will happen tomorrow,

So live life  to the fullest ,forget all your sorrows,

Behave  compassionately  and  kindly ,

Never miss a chance to laugh uncontrollably .

The next minute ,hour or day are not promised to anybody

Don't hide your emotions if you love somebody,

You may regret later, you may not get a second chance ,

Life is not for the storm to pass ,but to enjoy the rain dance .

Discard fear ,don't fret listen to your heart

Don't postpone things further ,which you can start .

Be confident to walk ahead  the curvy  up hill road ,

Your commitment and your courage are being explored .

Have the strength to forgive quickly ,it's a lovely positive drive 

It brings peace to your soul  and harmony in your life .

Spread smile ,cheer and love all around ,help whom all you can ,

Live a  happy life now,cause you don't know your life span .

Live an honest life full of hope ,faith and trust,

Live ,laugh and love in the present ,this is a must ,

Pray , work and enjoy as if there is no tomorrow,

Listen to your inner self  and just get up and go.

Life is too short to waste , let us live it  with full taste ,

Forget the past ,enjoy the present ,don't think of the future in haste ,

Remember,  God sent you here across  so many  many miles ,

To spread love ,cheer ,happiness and tons and tons of smiles .

DON'T BE AN ANGRY BIRD

Anger I know is very very  bad,

It burns all my insides like mad,

Anger tears my heart apart,

It pricks my inside like a sharp dart .

Anger sometimes makes me scream ,

All look aghast at the ugly scene ,

When anger takes control of me ,

I suffer  pain and cry in  agony .

Anger cripples my heart and soul,

It is an acid which makes a hole ,

When anger goes into my head ,

I can feel my mind tattered and shred .

How can I stop this anger rage ?

How can I control this anger damage ?

Take a deep breadth and count till ten,

This slowly diffuses the angry man .

Take a short break before you react ,

Analyze calmly  all the possible  facts,

Respond in a non confrontational way ,

Express  differences without hurting what you say .

Think wisely  before you speak anything ,

Your words should not hurt others feelings,

Anger never ever fixed any  situation ,

You've got to work out an amicable solution 

Change your attitude , so that you will never regret ,

Forget " YOU DID IT " instead  utter  " I AM UPSET ",

YOU  replaced  by  I  shows  that even in anger you respect ,

Forgive quickly ,for your health this is the best .

It's unrealistic to expect behavior always to your liking,

Your mind will be swallowed by your negative thinking,

Forgiving helps both parties to forget the fury ,

Heals  bad emotions , takes away  undesired worry .

Learn to use humor to release the tension,

By all means avoid sarcasm it increase the burden,

A brisk walk or exercise releases happy hormones.

Helps change attitude from tense to calm zones 

Relaxing skills help keep your temper away,

Deep breathing ,yoga and meditation are need of the day ,

Calming your mind with  nature,music and good reads ,

Never  goes waste in sowing  calm  mind seeds .

Control your anger,take up this challenge in life,

You have the potential ,build up your positive drive .

Have faith and trust in your capabilities ,

Awake your consciousness ,realize your abilities .

LIFE IS A SONG

Life is a song,

With notes,

High and low,

They seem to flow ,

Creating new tunes ,

Some happy some sad ,

Some good some bad,

Some musical ,

Some whimsical ,

They never repeat ,

Some win some defeat ,

We have to learn 

To play the notes ,

Which keep us gay ,

Each and every day 

God catch my hand ,

Guide me to play the band .

Give me the wisdom ,

To play with inner freedom,

Create a life of  faith ,hope and love,

Never to fall ,but rise above ,

To remain in crescendo ,

To live a life devoid of EGO 

LOVE , PEACE AND HARMONY

                                                         

To live in peace love and harmony ,

Brings progress and  boosts our economy .

War and violence is totally fraught ,

We  repent and loose all that we ever got !

Terror and violence are our enemies ,

They never let us live in peace,

We loose so many innocent lives,

We hear the  mothers sobs  and cries.

Men killing each other without fear,

Is this  why God sent us here ?

Guns , blasts ,blood and death,

Is this what we need for our health ?

Do people kill each other  to get a thrill?

Do they enjoy on seeing their  fellows still?

Why don't they realize that what they sow ,

They will reap  and cry in deep sorrow .

Peace is  all we want to see in this world,

Let us all keep the flag of peace unfurled,

Practice Peace  ,harmony and love ,

Why can't we all rise high above?

God give all mankind this  divine grace ,

So that we don't disgrace the human race,

Learn to live with love ,harmony and peace ,

Life will then be happy , blissful and  at ease .

Peace outside brings peace within,

Our inside rejoices and sings .

Our love  filled heart overflows with joy,

The harmony created  is for all to enjoy !
