songs of hope

                         FEAR NOT, MY CHILD 

Child

I see

Waves of dreams

Like a rainbow

Spread across your sky.

Although, life is not fair,

But please, journey without fear.

Trek if you have no transport fare.

Journey to the unknown without fear,

Your faith and courage will bring helpers near.

Victory songs

                                            We’ve conquered the Air!

We’ve conquered the air,

Victory songs we sing here!

Our castle is in the air.

There is much fun here.

You don’t need to strain your ear;

Victory chant is always loud enough to hear.

We’re above the grass and above the sea,

Up here we shine for all eyes to see.

At the centre of the sky we are few,

Up here we cannot be hidden from view.

Our castle is in the air,

There is much fun.                                                                                                                                                           

Child,

When I grow gray hair

You shall remain my heir

But,

To God I err,

If I refuse to tell you to play your part

If I refuse to tell you to seek own path

I did not blaze a Trail,

By seeking a path that already has a trail.

Build your castle elsewhere,

Not here in the air.

MY NATURE

                 I AM

I am the chameleon of many colors

I am the rainbow of seven colors

I am the fountain

I am the sea

I am the mountain

I am the stone

I am the valley

I am the sand

I am diamond

I am gold

I am the sunset by the riverside

I am the tadpole by the streamside

I am the Snail

I am the eagle

I am the ant

I m the lion

I am the horse

I am the thunder

I am the storm

I am the ostrich

I am the moon at the centre of the sky

I am the stars at the heart of your sky

I

AM

Chameleon of many colors...

Slow Steady Snail

      

      RACE

Swift speedy stallion

Snubbed small snail’s slow pace

Said, “Slow slimy snail won’t steal a place in any race”

 Sleek snake said something similar-

“Snail so slow, snail slow snail won’t steal a nice place in any race!”

Although Snake is so smart and stallion is swift

For a first place

But in this race,

Small slow snail’s steady pace won the race!

When sleepy slimy slow snail stretched

Out of its shell,

Sleek smart snake skidded

Off a slippery slope,

Hasty speedy stallion

During the race

Sank with sinking sand,

Slow, steady snail small pace

Won the race!

Slow small snail

Smiled silently,

Said to sinking stallion

And sliding snake,

“My pace might be slow,

But a slow steady, pace

Will always win a race!”

". . .TOO MUCH FOR MY INFANT HEART" ( from the collection 'Graceland, my graceland' )

. . .TOO MUCH FOR MY INFANT HEART

Your beauty strikes my heart

My heart beat a rhythm of love

My mouth sings a beautiful song of hope

My pen is dancing to a beautiful

Poem of love.

The color of your skin

Paints a clear picture of my heart desire,

Your charming smile

Put my soul at ease.

The sparkles in your eyes

Sets my heart’s flame of love ablaze

The coolness of your character

Submit my infant heart to love

The softness of your hands

Caresses me to sleep.

Your breath of kindness

Filled the vacuum of my heart

Like it’s going to burst it

The beauty of your face

Blur my innocent eyes

It put me in a trance

My heart vibrates within me

The fullness of your love

Shake my world

Like the beauty of you

Is too much for my infant heart.
