Importance of co-operation in our life.(For my junior readers)

There is a’ lot of importance of co-operation in life. It makes life easy. We should be kind enough to co-operate instead of always competing with others. Co-operation arouses peace and friendship in one’s life. By co-operating, we learn to adjust with different kinds of people in various situations. Just as the combination of different ingredients brings life to a desired dish; the co-operation of different minds brings life to a desired goal. Helping each other enhances a healthy social and mental life. Co-operating with different kinds of people results in a greater productivity in our tasks. Hence, co-operation is one of the most important keys to success.

Let us help each other.(For my junior readers)

We should always help each other. It is said that every little help is returned in double folds. Helping helps to sow a seed of kindness in one’s heart. This seed germinates to yield love, friendship and peace. I have heard that we should learn to lend help with gratitude and take it with humility. Helping makes us understand each other’s needs and deeds. The help can be small or big, but it is never considered small in one’s heart. We should always be sensitive to the needs of others and eager to help them. Helping creates a healthy social and mental environment. It is the best act of benevolence anyone could do. So let us help each other!

The Fire.

That huge and glorious jewel I often miss,

It used to be in some heavenly part of the universe,

Full of goodness, peace and bliss-

People named it as the Earth.

There were wars, demons and hatred;

Poor Earth was forced between heaven and hell instead,

Falling deep down-It cried as a reluctant kid,

But all great words of wisdom seemed so unspoken and unread.

Now my poor Earth lies halfway between good and evil,

So who can judge who has come from which side,

Half of us can love, the other half can kill;

But no one looks or behaves alike.

And there’s a fire left by the bad,

Which originates in every evil heart,

Sometimes it makes me feel so sad,

As people like me don’t even discover from the start.

That no matter what-

The fire will always do what it should,

By traveling up to the devil’s different parts,

And it is meant to only affect the good,

By breaking their pure and innocent hearts.

The powerful flames might take the same form-if they reach the face,

And mask an angel above the devil for the sake of fun,

To play a disastrous game or to just have a taste-

Of an unfelt holy emotion.

Even worse if the flames reach the tongue-

As then they can travel out so far,

And if they reach an angel’s heart that’s happy and fit,

Making it unstable, they create a deep incurable scar;

Brutally injecting every burnt word into it.

And worst if they reach the mind,

They betray, cheat and hurt;

That is when-we the kind,

Come to realize their burning thirst.

I believe that the fire shall destroy every good heart very soon,

Only demons would exist and each curse would replace every boon.
And so it is time for the tragic shift again,

For now in hell my poor Earth is about to fall,

Here comes the time of great sorrow and pain,

Which will destroy the lives of all.


Till then I will always want to shed some tears,
It might help to blow out the fire in the devils near.

Half of me

I’ve been roaming in a family function all around,

Where again those faces I found,

Half of them, God! Their smile is so elastic!

The other half behaving so sarcastic!

Found kids not even half my age,

I’m so bored at this marriage!

Half a mile you won’t walk,

When relatives gather around to talk,

How could I find any of my friends?

They don’t even leave me for half a second!

Empty is my mind, empty is my soul-
Now, go and fill up salad half a bowl.

God! So much makeup can’t see half your face,

Wonder what I’m doing at this boring place!

There are people good enough,

About them mom knows a’ lot of stuff,

But I don’t even remember half a thing,

How can you expect my recognizing?

Can listen to music or can read half a book,

But only if for that I don’t get even half of those awkward looks!

Can’t see a person half a decent,

I wish I was still an infant,

Then I wouldn’t had to stay up late,

Oh this place I totally hate!

God! Why am I up to so under reacting,

Maybe ‘coz I can’t tolerate them over reacting,

This dullness has split up half of me,

Oh I wish I could be myself like always buzzing like a bee,

Wish everyone was like I want them to be,

Wish this place was just half of me!

                                                                                    -Thank you.

What Happiness Can Do

The little happiness that occurs each day,

Could be in a very small or in a very big way,

It creates smiles which always fills a heart with joy and cheer,

And takes away all the negativity that is near.

It tends to paint your life to a change,

From a shade of black and white to bright orange.

It sparkles some glitter on the beautiful sunshine,

And dissolves magic in the sunrise,

Which makes the flowers bloom before time,

And creates a ray of hope in one’s life.

It makes all birds sing in their finest melody,

In a natural sound of peace that might never have been heard before,

And all animals live their life in harmony,

And love one another each second more and more.

It makes all stars compete on their rate of twinkling,

In little groups that are beyond infinity,

Which makes the sky so dazzling,

And its sight even more lovely.

It makes the clouds sneeze out diamonds in such a perfect way,

Which makes the trees flutter so attractively,

Which excites the atmosphere and beautifies the day,

And makes the peacock dance on a ground of jewellery.

                                       

 There are so many things that happiness can do, you see,

Your world may transform if you decide to be happy every time,

But for sure it will always make you live your life with positivity,

And it will always make me love to rhyme.

                                                                                                   -Thank you.

Life is still a mystery

I created my desire,

But I have to create my destiny,

So the stress is wildly racing inside of me,

A voice in my head keeps asking-

“Would I be able to achieve-all those dreams that I weave?”

So now I keep inhaling curiousity,

Because life is still a mystery!

But I would never surrender,

In front of this overwhelming pressure,

I’ll just observe, learn and wait,

For the right time, for the right place!

Where all those walls would fall apart,

And only magic would hold my heart,

Light would enter from the dark,

Which would lead me to the way,

Where I would be able to create my own day,

Where clouds would shed joyous tears,

And I would abandon all my fears,

Because success would be so near!

There life could be spent with ease,

And then I would thank god on my knees,

Because I would finally become who I want to be,

And that would be an end to my curiousity,

Because life would no longer be a mystery!

Melody of Poetry

As I sit here relaxed-I feel so much beauty in the world today,

All I want is to quietly feel nature working in its own way.

As the air passes a little mild,

Let the trees dance in their happiest style,

I’d just love to stare the squirrels for a little while…

Let blossom all the pretty colours of all flowers,

Let the sunshine shine inside of me and give me power,

And let the melody of poetry

                   take you and me

                   to the place it wants to be.

     And so I set it free

                   to emerge from me

                   and take you and me

                   to the place it wants to be.

Let the cool breeze flow,

At its brightest let the sun glow,

Let all desired shapes be taken by the cloud,

Let me feel all my feelings come out….

Let the birds sing their favourite tune,

Let the butterfly appear from its cocoon,

Let all animals live their life in harmony,

And let the melody of poetry

                   take you and me

                   to the place it wants to be.

As I choose my favourite colour and paint my creativity,

We would see-how the melody of poetry

                                    originates from me

                                    and takes us to the place it wants to be.

                  

                                                                             -Thank you.
