ANGELS TREAD IN HEAVEN

She smiled her amorous rays by chance

I gazed at all her charms at glance,

But she disappeared leaving me alone at once

Like the lightning of unrivalled brilliance.

She captured all my rapt attention

To her arresting attraction

I couldn’t but adore her

To welcome her as my life partner.

Forthwith I had a wish than never

That I should search for her

Or we both, for each other

To unite at our wedding-chamber.

I went ahead trying every chance

To invite her to my doorstep

Searching for her at every step

Once again, I could glimpse her at once.

Her lively walking and lovely dancing

Played rhythms with her songs enchanting:

“Angels are only to tread in heaven

But not on earth and it is proven.”

SOLE MISSION FOR CONTRIBUTION

The sunflower in its sole mission

That faces the sun, days in succession

With beauty in progression; bliss in gesture

To enrich the grandeur of nature.

The bee though hides its ideal complexion

It has a unique objective in the collection

Of sweet honey from all flowers, an adventure

For a free gift in its hectic unselfish venture.

The jasmine definitely has a selfless aim

To enrapture many a creature in its claim

With its unrivalled unlimited sweet fragrance

For their ecstasy in much more abundance.

The cuckoo has to reach its special goal

With the mysteries of melodies as a whole

Fills the deep hearts to the core for ever

With the treasure of excessive pleasure.

Likewise, man, the God’s supreme creation

His bounden duty for his just contribution

With constant efforts for human welfare

In the celebration of virtues everywhere.

LOVING OFFSPRING

All objects in nature dream of service,

Selfless for welfare of every creature,

The cloud, loving offspring, raised well for bliss,

The supreme example of sublime stature,

In love, turns pregnant, on the monsoon kiss,

Delivers rain shower in full rapture,

For the furrow of plough to till the soil,

All seeds to germinate for life sans toil.

Amid thunders-lightnings the cloud showers,

In sheen, the dark blue sky looks beautiful,

For green treasures on earth of growth-powers,

Divine gifts to fields and throats for life full,

All flow back to seas through living rivers,

Serving all in stream for life full joyful,

The cloud rain serves as life-harbinger,

God’s offer to fulfil thirst and hunger.
