THE SUN AND THE EARTH

 

THE SUN AND THE EARTH

Bright sphere is a million miles away,

The fire bulb radiates light and sway,

Ancient creation in the universe moves,

Nine planets, the family rotates proves (1)

 

Lifeless hot gaseous and icy crust stays,

Circularly rotates around the Sun, says,

The blue planet with water life grows,

Mountains, forests, and the river flows (2)

 

The azure sky clouds sail lazily or rain,

Clouds shroud the Sun, sunlight claims,

Thunderstorm, lightning, snow shower,

Ice-capped peaks and valleys yet allure, (3)

 

Rotates the Earth around the Sun, year,

The attraction and pull of gravity power,

Golden sunrise streak of light or dew,

Sparkles like a gem disappears a view, (4)

 

The moon pours the silvery light, night,

Romantic life captivating hours excite,

Light plays with shadows longer, rotates,

Solstices, stone hedge determines great, (5)

 

Seasons, months, summer, and winter,

The rain and springs, life encounters,

The myth of sensations, romanticism,

The Earth rotates, the day and night (6)

 

Sunlight, air, and water, a seed sprouts,

A myriad of living beings, trees or roots,

Animal life, birds, and marine life need

The Earth is their home, the Sun indeed, (7)

 

Interdependent, unrivaled relationship,

The humans acknowledge or worship,

The source of life sustenance, balance,

Dawns and dusks, realize life enhances. (viii)

LUMINOU THE FUTURE

 

LUMINOUS THE FUTURE

Terrify the darkness and shadows,

War cry, wildfire, burnt meadows,

Holocaust, catastrophe, draughts,

Parched fields fractured wrought, (1)

 

Vanishing green forest rivers, dry,

Bald mountain blasted, crushers,

Spread dust, scenic beauty absent,

Tribal lost their land, and resentful, (2)

 

Or, cropping up high-rise buildings,

Metal roads, wide, crisscross long,

Name, uplifts civilization shielding,

Luxury comfort wealth living song, (3)

 

Horror-filled outgrowth, the jungle,

Predator prowls day or night, mingle,

They stalk walk fugitives play naive,

Mercilessly loot, and harms, blames, (4)

 

Exists a narrow trek ahead straight,

The world leads the new generation,

Glorious opportunity, safe, secure,

Captivates brilliant sunrise, assure, (5)

 

There stays, no loss of life, prospers,

Unknown pain, misery, or tensions,

Effulgence energy vigor life sponsor,

Benevolence inspired help emotion, (6)

 

Not a trace of sorrow, tears, and fear,

The rainbows of happiness shower,

Lotus blooms here, petals significant,

Renaissance of human lives defiant, (7)

 

The night of the mind life fails to find,

The luminous future, the Lord is kind,

Flow fountain of peace and love well,

The nightmarish dreams slowly quell. (viii)

ENDLESS THIRST

 ENDLESS THIRST

Hidden in the innermost chamber,

The heart safe keeps wishes longer,

Life sustaining, but desire crosses,

Grab dry sand as gold again loses (1)

 

Dreary sand bed or blistering heat,

Dream cast pleasure passion greet,

The expanse of lust the heart seeks,

Golden deer vanish attracts pricks, (2)

 

Pigeon cage chest bones imprison,

Yearns for gold, diamond, a reason,

Life flies faster, grows thirst lingers,

Insatiable appetite tempted trigger, (3)

 

Beautiful moonlit night and silvery,

A gentle breeze, life shadowy ivory,

Melancholic song on thirsty hearts,

The symphony of dreams enchants. (4)

 

Create Arabian nights, dawn steals,

Irresistible desires rise, fewer heal,

Give me the mansion property, a lot,

Shower the power status life escort, (5)

 

The quicksand of life drink satisfied,

More life wants, interpret, unjustified,

Fail to explain acute feelings, silent,

Fight to grab more and be resilient in life, (6)

 

Consequence oasis beyond borders,

The vulture of death hunts its records,

Life is not a sad song; mind dominates,

Love is the white dove promulgates, (7)

 

Relinquished, detached life conquers,

Water not luxury satiate yet enamor,

Endless thirst, a short life, a paradox.

Spirit runs perished midway at a loss. (viii)

SORROWS AND SOLACE

 

SORROWS AND SOLACE

Golden river and the lake captivate,
Dazzles, traps the heart timid, quiet,
Underneath the darkness pervades,
The bottom contrasts the glory fade (1)

Lurks fear and terrifies, swirling wave,
Limited scope to escape hand waves,
The rock bottom of life story, scary, exists
Rescuing drowning human life resists (2)

Snow peaks sunrise, an avalanche hit,
The ice cover traps and destiny meet,
Mirage tempts a thirsty soul, quicksand,
Humans lose lives, a few understand, (3)

Amass wealth, an ivory castle, swell,
Fame and fortune, pivotal, turn, dwell,
Lose kith and kin or skipped the event,
Agony accompanies, life suffers, lament, (4)

The pink future cast light and stolen,
The upheaval and downfall frighten,
The branches are leafless, dry twig fall,
Broken nest bird fled, moonless call, (5)

Penchant for fragrances, the flowers,
Hungry to dance in the rain, showers,
Chilling win ice-clad landscape freeze,
Overflowing happiness warmth cease, (6)

Nostalgic, vibrant youth twilight show,
Auburn hair eyeglasses time pass know,
The wheel of time remotely back true,
Impermanence underneath life views, (7)

Came alone to the mysterious world,
Truth to return, linger thirsts, a word,
A utopia bewitched in front of a morass,
Essence prevails sorrows and solace. (viii)

CONFLICT AN CORRELATION

 

CONFLICT AND CORRELATION

Noticed minutely azure sky and sea,
The cliff, mountain, rivers, and trees,
Flocks of birds fly gaily, chirp, noisy,
A baby giggles, eyes glisten and rosy, (1)

Correlations, coexistence, the Earth,
Subtle relationship continues worth,
Flowers blossom, pollinate, and fruit,
The stem, branch, leaves, and roots (2)

Procreation, the seed of nature, exists,
Uprooted trees or hailstorms persist,
Minion of bird's nest chicks fledging,
The nightingale and cuckoos singing, (3)

Thunderstorms, wildfires, terrifying,
Angry rivers swollen flow, horrifying,
Placid water of the lake, lotus blooms,
Gentle breeze creates ripples of delight, (4)

Behold, humans or wonderful amity,
Disbelieve change of hearts, cruelty,
Perpetual peace, happiness, and love,
Heinous animosity overrules, dissolves, (5)

Humans' hearts yet harbor sympathy,
Dries sooner than belief, feel apathy,
Have family, friends, and neighbors,
Leading a lonely life, losing the vigor, (6)

Savage humans, conflicts, fire burns,
Search for peace desperately yearn,
Pleasure, a fiction imagination, learn,
Crumble dream or hope, life mourn, (7)

The sea, Earth, and the sky evolution,
Life's drama, conflict, and correlation,
Balances nature thrive, living beings,
Noise peters out, life melodious sings. (viii)

A DAY IN LIFE

 

A DAY IN LIFE

Encounter human tragedy, torment,
The horror, scar linger for moments,
Engulf sorrows or shrouds sadness,
The dark clouds pass, only impresses, (1)

Suppressed pain, life fights patiently,
A wounded heart loves healing quickly,
Shades worries, look forward, aspire,
Sprouts many a hidden acute desire, (2)

Break chains, burdens, responsibility
Escapes to solitude, natural beauty,
The salt tributary, mangrove-dense,
Thrill of animal habitat marine lens, (3)

Stark contrast to noisy crowd cities,
The sultry air of silence craze realities,
Crocodile sightseeing birds chirping,
The unreal realm unfolded life sings, (4)

Soothing effect, a miracle happens,
Nature and water steal life, awaken,
Irresistible urge inexpressible word,
The boat in the estuary, forest, world (5)

Unimaginably thrilling the night stay,
Trickle emotion overwhelm display,
Tiny human life and God's creation,
A statue looked at the boats' motion, (6)

The moon, stars, and the universe,
The roof the sky touched, of course,
Sang the song of life, forgot reality,
The darkness silences a pretty music, (7)

The boat touched the shore at dawn,
A day in life etched missed, mourn,
Experienced happiness or pleasure,
Thwarted gloom the page enamor. (viii)

INDIFFERENT HEART

 

INDIFFERENT HEART

 

Eve of the year, the river of wine,

Fireworks lit the sky, in between,

Illuminated and decorated trees,

Plenty of hot cakes, sweets, gifts, (1)

 

Humans sink into the river dance,

Nightlong merrymaking enhances,

Shed the burden of life or horror,

Forgot pain, miseries, and torture, (2)

 

Drunk, driving vehicles met death,

Left the weeping family, a length,

Shattered the hopes, aspirations,

The leftover, a story or emotions, (3)

 

Touched me, pavement dwellers,

Chilling cold night in an open space,

Felt tears for them in the New Year,

Matters least to their lives, better, (4)

 

Surrender to a cruel fate, destiny,

No one with them, the company

Callous luxurious lives evade well,

The division of the humans, fuel (5)

 

Lost inspirations, viewed contrast,

Pray for peace and progress, first,

Homogeneous growth or harmony,

The landless possess a roof, many (6)

 

A plot to cultivate, wish livelihood,

Meanings of a new chapter brood,

Happiness and pleasure truly feel,

Humans get equality, free, reveal, (7)

 

No discrimination, smiles spread,

Indifferent heart changed, tirade,

May the year transform life well,

May hope rule the heart prevail. (viii)

VIBRANT LIFE DAWNS

 

VIBRANT LIFE DAWNS

 

Imbued with happiness and family,

Loses inhibitions, fear, grows lovely,

Paramount desires propagate well,

Conceals an urge, prosperity dwells, (1)

 

A seed sprouts water, air, and light,

Life grows stronger, hungry fights,

Stubborn, face challenges and fear,

A light within shows the path, near, (2)

 

Myriad thoughts, jungle, the wall,

A narrow straight path, upheavals,

Walks with only offspring, curious,

What lies ahead moves consciously, (3)

 

Golden wings, fate and destiny fly,

A flying carpet Arabian story defy,

Carry to the unknown realm, love,

The father and child persist, solve, (4)

 

The silhouette of yesteryear print,

Luminous skies display a life hint,

Golden firm hands gripped tightly,

Guidance of the father stays lightly, (5)

 

Hammers to mold, reject parents,

Fascinating stories, meaning hints,

Lessons and yearn, to listen, walk,

Sunrise attenuates vigor past sulk, (6)

 

Twin leaves to a redwood tree long,

Resilience and relationship, song,

The narrow trek in forests to fields,

Bright sunshine illuminates, shield, (7)

 

Vibrant life dawns, beacons, glows,

Life is the path, the father shows,

Memories die hard, boundary met,

A child immersed in thoughts is quiet. (viii)

LIGHT AND SOUND

 LIGHT AND SOUND

 

Hilarious mind addicted to music,

Exotic and melodious songs flow,

Humans dance and rhythmic step,

Lift their hands, sing, hours ecstatic, (1)

 

Unearthly feeling pace and lights,

Focus colorful beams or highlight,

The rapper on the stage instigates,

Wild hearts respond match steps, (2)

 

An hour, apparently an age, passes,

Life forgets sorrows, burdens play,

The wine of sound or a symphony,

Wiped out loneliness, the company, (3)

 

Recovered from hurt past forgets,

Rejuvenated wounded soul waits,

Learned to smile, shed a happy tear,

Trembling limbs fight to wipe fear, (4)

 

Forget life responsibility duty fake,

Unfold colorful dream, God's sake,

Expect to live, love life, profoundly,

Establish friendships and honestly, (5)

 

Acrimony, enmity, animosity wane,

Midnight a New Year, alerts, profess,

There will be a peaceful Earth, quiet,

Free of pollution, disease, or hunger (6)

 

A future, children learn are skilled,

The song spread hope and fulfilled

Forgotten memories, the tomorrow,

Blue Earth fountain joy no sorrows, (7)

 

Light and sound hypnotize lifelong,

A mug of joy wishes a future prolonged,

May the sunrise or happy New Year,

Suspicions doubt hope to disappear. (viii)

THE REALITY OF CLIFFHANGERS

 

THE REALITY OF CLIFFHANGERS

 

Analyzed each word of the page quietly,

Life projects miracles, transforms, lovely,

From abysmal dreams, fountain colored,

A paradigm change, trust sadly rumored, (1)

 

From rag to riches, towering status stay,

Overturn fate overnight, shatter display,

Crumbles, sand castle, the fort appears,

Life kneels yet builds imagines disappear, (2)

 

The indomitable courage, endurance,

Achieves results, the dream remains,

Human dignity, prosperity, fall quickly,

They fight, tooth and knell, beautifully, (3)

 

The laughter demean ignominy thrive,

The rope to the cliff life grabs survives,

Behold the peak of fame and fortune,

Cliffhangers confront meet opportune, (4)

 

Breathless, turn pages, change quickly,

Situations, a path of life face eventually,

The dark alley, turns, frightens corners,

Disbelieve life escapes, happiness near, (5)

 

The year once began, fun and fair roll,

Closing with the loss of past event turmoil,

The dawn with bright sunshine, roses,

Happy New Year and peace, proposes, (6)

 

Waits amusement bemuse the month,

Festivals, colorful, progress, the worth,

Unknown, life will miss favorites sadly,

Another page of life opens, socks madly, (7)

 

The reality of cliffhangers simulates,

The last page of the story confiscates

Open before eyes or drama unfolded,

Yet experience the mind, blindfolded. (viii)
