 #ThisIsAlliNeed


Walking leisurely at my pace ..


I feel the wind against my face  

and enjoy it's cool embrace  


I hear the birds chirp and tweet 

an early morning musical greet 


I see the clouds passing by 

hugging each other in the blue sky 


I smell the  dew dripped wet mud

 it's fragrance seeps  into my blood 


I touch my heart and feel at peace

 smiling to myself with great ease ...


This is all I need I know 

as I keep walking in a happy flow ..

Love And Freedom

 #Loveandfreedom


LOVE is like a butterfly

just out of a cocoon

Perched on the heart 

fluttering it's dainty wings 

filling it with feelings 

which no words can express 

for love is a joyful sigh 

which make hearts soar high !!!


Love is like a butterfly 

flitting from flower to flower 

sharing love power 

putting smiles and sighs 

as it tenderly passes by 


love cannot be caged 

it just flies free 

it's not to be possessed 

but to spread happiness

Seeing Beyond

 #Seeingbeyond ...


If you could cast your sight 

on the far side 

of the thin running stream

dancing along 

you'd be able to see beyond 


If you could see 

how far the mountains spread

never ending length and breadth 

you'd  be able to know the limitless 


If  you  could part 

the curtains of your mind 

you'd be able to see

through the window a light 

of wisdom that shines beyond 


If you could  pay attention

to the unseen 

you'd hear the silent sound 

whispering hope lies beyond 


If  you could  understand 

the purpose of life 

you'd  love unconditionally 

knowing happiness lies beyond 


If you could feel the pain 

of your fellow men 

you'd be kind to them till the end 

would know bliss is beyond self 


If you could lovingly touch 

hearts from far with your affectionate words and deeds 

You would know joy

is not  beyond reach 


If you could lift 

the eyelid of ignorance 

from kohl smudged eyes 

you'd  see the truth beyond 


If you could sing 

only gratitude while you pray 

without asking for fulfilling wants 

You'd be truly blessed beyond !

Life is short , listen to your heart

Life is short 

listen to your heart 

do what makes u happy

before you depart 


Life is  care and share

like oxygen in the air

Live each single day 

laugh love and play 


Life is to love n cherish

U never know when u will perish 

follow your hearts passion

seize every small occasion ..


Life itself is a blessing 

Worth loving and caressing...

Happy Hug Day

 

#HappyHugDay Friends 


JADOO KEE JHAPI 


A hug is loving 

and endearing 

A hug is enlivening 

and consoling 


A hug reassures 

faith in humanity 

A hug warms 

your inner vulnerability 


A hug speaks 

unspoken words 

A hug energizes 

you to fly like a bird .


A hug in sadness 

halves your sorrow 

A hug in happiness

doubles your joy 


A hug to console strengthens minds 

A hug in hurt  

heals painful grinds 


A hug to welcome 

bonds hearts 

A good morning hug 

wow a great head start 


A hug boomerangs 

right back to you 

A hug changes 

your metabolism too !

Happy_Chocolate_Day

#Happy_Chocolate_Day 


Chocolate is my happiness 

when life brings joy or stress 

It’s sweet notes of symphony 

Just melt in the mouth deliciously 


Bitter sweet melody lingers on 

Long after the performance ends 

Each note is a tasty testament 

Of its luscious melting temperament 


Oh! Dear chocolate,in  solitude 

You cheer me up,raise my mood 

Sharing with friends on any occasion 

Be it for comfort,solace or celebration !


Pray everyday is a chocolate day 

Let the bitter sweet taste always stay 

In each bite of the sweet dark fantasy 

I sing and dance in  sheer ecstasy !!!

Lose_yourself_to_find_yourself

 #Lose_yourself_to_find_yourself 


Lose yourself to find yourself 

Is what the saints have said 

Oh ! dear , oh dear , I need help 

this just does not fit into my head !


And then,it dawned on stupid me 

what do I really want  to be ? 

Why do at times i feel stuck or lost 

Wonder what road I must walk ?


What’s holding me back to find myself 

To walk the path of divine manifest 

Why don’t I let go ,beliefs of this limited mind ?

Why am I stuck up to my thought grind ? 


I grew up wanting to become a boss 

In that rat race my real identity was lost 

Selflessness and humility went for a toss 

It was then all about myself and my class .


Worries and stress became a part of life 

To stay ‘one up ‘ was my mantra to survive 

Happiness was waxing and waning each day 

Peace and solace ran miles and miles away 


I learnt the hard way ,to change myself 

I let go EGO building a false image of self 

I don’t have to be a “SOMEBODY”to succeed 

Just to be my true self, is all that i need 


Being a “NOBODY “brought liberation and peace 

I  was now only my true soul nature of bliss 

True nature of awareness from which virtues sprout 

My peace was not disturbed by the worldly shouts .

Birth of a poem

 #Birth_of_a_poem 😀😀😀


I talk less, and write more 😀

But oh no ! I am never a bore 

I think less ,I go more extempore 

My words come from my hearts core 


Invisible scenes in my clear mind 

Become alive without a grind 

Words just flow like a waterfall 

At times they keep rolling like a ball 


Random thoughts pour unhindered 

Clueless they get entwined in a bundle 

To form sentences with life’s meanings 

Alive and so true to my day dreaming 


When my mind goes awry ,my heart speaks 

It quietens my mumbly minds loud squeaks 

The words which pour after this high tide 

Are full of wisdom as I pen them in stride 


So if you are feeling lost and grumpy 

Don’t become restless like a monkey 

Just pick up your pen and listen to your heart 

A crazy funny poem will get a head start !
