SONNET ON YOGA

Yoga, a boon to keep man calm and quiet,

It helps man to be free from fears and tears,

It frees the mind from darkness by its light,

As a link between man and God, it clears,

The mind, in full peace by relief-showers,

Increase in powers of concentration,

It makes the mind balanced in cool bowers,

In all works with strong determination;

No scope in mind for hasty decision,

Young and old can do it in the free air,

Thrice a day with prayer, meditation,

It trains the mind to think all dare and fair,

It helps the mind to cultivate beauty,

The body to shine in serenity.

MY FAVOURITE JOURNAL

I was in my wide search; my victory,

As a bird of notes sat on my shoulder,

A search for a journal of poetry,

It sang its melodies to my wonder;

A feast of ears for bliss auditory, 

"Metverse Muse" its name, known for its candor,

Editor Tulsi in metric kingdom,

With the melodic verses in wisdom.

SRI RAMA'S LEGACIES

For all man's welfare

God was born as man, Sri Rama

On earth, all turned his fanfare,

He filled joys in human panorama

All righteous and judicious

A rare model for human relations

All magnanimous and gracious

With all for cordial concerns

All loved him for his virtues

He proved cent-percent perfect

With the embodiment of values

In all, his high ideals an effect

Most lovable most to his father,

Whose words, he disobeyed never

He served his aunts and mother

Even the aunt, the cause for his exile

He loved his brothers as hearts

He treated the people as gods to bless

He revered sages in teaching arts

Father's words led him for their success

Ministers, messengers, small to tall,

His near and dear only for love-word,

Loved all and was loved by all

He came to their rescue as their guard

He was their king, relentless ruler

Even demons when they were flawless

In rescue in his safe royal parlor

For human relations in peace limitless

His legacies for peace and harmony

All to live for human concerns

Scarce in the age of rat race for money

Of all means for power-relations
