RISE ASPIRATION

 

Obscure the direction amid darkness,

Lost the path, consequently, distresses,

Rain-soaked body, spine-chilling wind,

Search for shelter and warmth to find (1)

 

Resemble a human's hope and dreams,

Limitless sky boundary, faith streams,

Life is only full of milestones directed.

Alas, a life watch sunrise introspected, (2)

 

Hazards like rock-strewn path gorges,

In front, a dark pit, the hole emerges,

Caution desperation, time clicks well,

Moves the daring life crossroads yell, (3)

 

Which route to pick up or reject, think?

Between the horns of a dilemma, life sinks,

Tied fatigues overtake sterile feelings,

Inner courage, stubbornness, life sings, (4)

 

Cross out of a morass, nightmare, say,

Rise from the pit, and Georg, in dismay

Failure is not rare; it teaches a nice lesson.

Success is a rare achievement, caution (5)

 

Opportunities are rare; grab them soon.

Human life is at risk of discovering the boon,

Do or die fight to defy the face a battle,

Sunrises, bird chips essays a mettle, (6)

 

The winner the world disbelieves it,

In the split-second snatch victory fit,

The applause and standing ovation stay,

Cross all frontiers, surprise displays, (7)

 

Hopelessness crest-fallen the heart,

Rise aspiration challenging impact,

Aspiration raises dead wood sprouts,

At the sunrise, birds fly, and shouts. (viii)

END OF THE MISSION

A path of life serpentine, rocky, hurt,

Quicksand frightens, struggles add effort.

Unmindful mistake, loss of opportunity,

Surprised a human faces insecurity, (1)

 

Life is precious, has a purpose, wait

Courage, decision, and work indicate,

Demonstrate success, vivid pictures,

As a boat in a sea wave encounters, (2)

 

Unlimited dreams and passion stay,

To achieve a boat sails to the shore,

Vagaries of weather, the fate display,

Disbelieve life rarely sinks, pleasure, (3)

 

Frustration failure rope broken ore,

The boat is motionless, a life sufferer,

The boat moves by the wind, a mind plays,

Changes moods, loses direction, stays, (4)

 

Objectives of life from birth to death,

Fulfills commitments, runs a breath,

Not all boats of life reach the shore,

Sink in the middle, forget to assure, (5)

 

Forget the grace of the Lord totally,

At the time of danger, he drowns fatally,

Submerges life by ego, pride, and blind,

Immerse light of hope a dawn find, (6)

 

On a pillar rises life, slip repeatedly,

Perseverance and resilience act as an ally,

The ultimate result of life at the top pole,

The boat reaches the shore as a goal (7)

 

No name applause earning notion,

Satisfy victory, end of the mission,

Infinite peace, solace worth living,

Memories linger with tears leaving. (viii)

NEAR AND OTHERS SHOW

 

Far superior life procrastinate, yell,

Unknown, invisible hand love dwells,

Concerned shadow follows, present,

Precious time is scarcely lost, resent, (1)

 

Unanimous thoughts correlate well,

A life surprised, disbelieves, true tell,

At worry, difficult times, support,

Absent is a request for life rapport (2)

 

Relation, cousin, or sibling relate,

Personal life safeguard link debate,

A life not related links sympathy,

Miracle happens, find near apathy, (3)

 

Blood flows in veins, recognize, not,

Look away at peril, attention avert,

Repeated appeals act deaf, persist,

Heartless gestures, a mercy resist, (4)

 

Natural in the world, opposite say,

God send, human likes, help display,

No discrimination, wipe disasters,

Mute relation, other erase prefers, (5)

 

Not relatives are bad, sympathize,

Well, unexpected persons realize,

Love and care, thicker than blood,

Human life narrates truth, absurd (6)

 

Not a friend, neighbor, or doctor says,

Do not worry, life is safe, rest stay.

A sister feeds, gives medicine, feels,

Who is the doctor and sister heal, (7)

 

O Human, behold the divine play,

Near and the other one, actions stay.

God visits in disguise and escorts,

Believe in His presence, support. (viii)

INVIOLABLE BONHOMIE

A canopy of sadness stays in darkness,

Blackout of reasons and search in distress,

Isolation is a cursed island; lonely life fails,

Crashed a boat of life, miseries prevail, (1)

 

Thorny bush and beach circle the ocean.

Bottomless depth of separation hasten,

No human life and the sight of home feel,

Reclusion impassionate life duly kneel, (2)

 

No quarrel, bitter fight, hatred present,

Love, care, and compassion are absent,

Flock of birds flying gaily chirp, loudly,

Swans swim in the lake, show proudly, (3)

 

Innumerable nests in branches strike,

Starry sky at night, the moon dislikes,

Lost love, lust, sensation, and whisper,

Deserted island, loner distinctly suffers, (4)

 

Desperate cries melt into the voids,

No one listens to live agonies; it avoids,

The mural is visibly real in the mind,

Myopic hallucination exhibits unkind (5)

 

Self-concept of mine, me, perishes,

The peace and happiness vanish,

Sufferance, fear visit, a face appears,

Selflessness, friendship, all disappear (6)

 

A shoulder to share the burden, tell,

Accept the trouble of life, sympathy,

Wipe tears of pain, console prevail

Bonhomie display, caring empathy, (7)

 

Immortal inviolable bonhomie sing,

Souls like a swan, spread their mind wings,

All trust do or die, an epitaph message.

A friend lives in memory, time says. (viii)

RISE O REMANANT

Bewitched bewildered steals the time,
Lotus blooms in sunlight, stay sunshine,
Fails to touch its love is distant, eternal,
Lily waits for the moonlit night ethereal, (1)

Perpetual to meet never happens sadly,
Wildflowers blossom, fragrance widely,
Fall to the ground, melt the scent soon,
Murmurs dry leaf on the ground prone, (2)

Soil covers broken twigs, laments a tree,
Flood waters sweep a trunk, floats free,
Leafless bare branches silhouette dark,
A broken boat once sailed left an earmark, (3)

Intense friendship, love, closeness, stay,
Human nature bonhomie duly display,
Today, the bitterest enemy, well, fight,
Empathy, compassion gone, a sad sight, (4)

Parents, siblings, part of life, separated,
Who stole the bond prefers, liberated,
A sweet home destroyed, creepers rule,
Collapsed all brick walls stay tearful, (5)

Temple bells chime, prayer oil lit lamp,
Broken temple strewn stones swamp,
Lost the serenity verdant valley voice,
Modernity deforested human rejoice, (6)

Countless species of living beings allure,
Vanished altogether, beauty no more,
Bare hills, dry river beds narrate pasts,
Shadow of the remnants horror casts, (7)

It is not the end of the world, oblivion.
Rise, O remnant, the time-proven scion,
Changed new life sprouts leaves, well,
Tree of life blossoms, friendships swell. (viii)

FORGET ME NOT

Infinite love, depth of understanding,
Display perpetual bond withstanding,
Imprints in the heart and mind, clear,
Separation, missing out the life bear, (1)

Absent deceptions inviolable beliefs,
Unspoken words eyes speak, reliefs,
Memories stay alive defiant, thaw,
The knot of friendships care life saw, (2)

Trustworthiness between the lives,
Coveys pain and pleasure, it thrives,
Unbroken bond soft chord present,
Conjugal life foresee scarcely scent, (3)

Gratitude for the parents and elders,
Unforgotten pleasant past shoulder,
Gift of the Lord's invaluable services,
Pray for their well-being, health wishes, (4)

Friend, philosopher, guide, remind,
Sincere all help, good wishes, kind,
They live in the reminiscence well,
Memory lanes the face meet trail, (5)

The lord is the provider, remember,
Pray for His favors, moods somber,
Subtle, His presence is an invisible hand,
Visualize the soul, well understand, (6)

Scarcely forgot the inner strength,
Courage will power exist at length,
Hope and aspirations, confluence,
Sense indomitable power intense, (7)

Love me dear, forget me not ever,
Always I shall be a shadow sheer,
The path of lifelong struggle we face,
Remembrance rose petal surface. (viii)

UPSETS THE HEART

The deprivation is not a curse for life,
Hunger stays, lack means face strife,
Fractured brick walls, thatched roof,
No electricity, oil lamp struggle proof, (1)

Books, notebooks, and pens prevail,
A child dreams of the future, well,
Her hard work, painstaking solution,
Result in the offing-excellent lotion, (2)

She walked miles to attend a school,
No road, muddy path, yet water full,
The hot sunshine rains winter creep,
Unfailing, she weathered life, sweep, (3)

No teacher guided her attention,
Memorize topics, write all solutions.
Missed her life in the nature blue sky,
Buffalo, bullock, ship in hoard defy, (4)

The veranda, her sit, family at work,
Concentrate her mind, a future lurks,
The scenario of yesteryear etched,
Left the village for city life to sketch, (5)

Success brought prosperity, stability,
Forgot her parents, attendability,
Uncanny sense of home or assets,
Change her life, a name she quest, (6)

Materialize her dreams sequence,
Surround loneliness, stay pretense,
No worry, plenty of wealth and luxury,
Lack peace and pleasure in life, sorry, (7)

From rags to riches, she often thinks,
Upset the heart, emptiness hints,
Wealth, fame prosperity vanish,
Without everything life cherishes. (viii)

WINGS OF THE MIND

Fled the white crane spread its wings,
Dropped the furs, happiness swings,
Sobs, the daughter of the landlord,
Leaving parents, scarcely afford, (1)

The ear and nose ring golden chain,
Bangles, anklets, bracelets, the same,
Long black hair manicured in a veil,
Carbon paint eyebrows tears prevail, (2)

The slim finger jewel ring nail polish,
Red ink border of small feet, cherish,
The silk saree executive pattern says,
The palanquin with men, well, displays (3)

The bride went to her in-laws' home,
She has to cross a river, and a boat comes,
A myriad of apprehension and fear float
She was listening to the boatman, escort (4)

Welcomes her in-law family, husband,
For a while, she failed to withstand,
Missing her parents' home and village,
On the fourth night, she met craze (5)

She found a polite, gentle manner, well,
Sprouts budding love soft cord dwell,
Experience the unmatched trust stay,
She started to believe her belief play (6)

She got pregnant with her parents,
News of a baby, her love feels current,
The undercurrent pulled him quickly,
Found her hubby holding the baby, lovely, (7)

Discovered the conjugal married life,
Wings of mind in thoughts, fur, strife,
The white crane found its mate a nest,
A chick fledgling, matching the best. (viii)

THE TRESPASSER

A sweet home, a happy family stay,
Love and care, attachments display,
Lovable parent and beautiful couple,
The house never faced any trouble (1)

She is feeding the kid, preparing food,
Her life attends to her hubby; she stood,
Infinite interest, attentive she always is,
A couple on the sofa, kids, well, play, (2)

The trust, obedience, and understanding,
Visible in the abode, firmly standing,
A heaven in the home belief is strong,
For years, they stay miraculously long (3)

The strong wall, failed interference,
Outside the world, happens, pretense,
Not affected them, their lives, they sing,
On occasion, the birds with their wings (4)

Fly far off to a lap of nature recluse,
A serenity, solitude attracts bemuse,
Busy with their performance, excellent.
The boundary wall is invisible, resilient, (5)

A creeper from an outside wall grows,
Crossing a wall, root fractures show,
Crumbles the stones, a boundary opens,
The family was unaware, less woken, (6)

Roomer enters their home, invisible,
Broke the mutual trust, creates trouble,
Suspicion separates quickly fragile life,
The house of quarrel, bitter fight, strife, (7)

Discover a couple much later, a creeper,
Uprooted doubts, the culprit is a trespasser.
Melted as morning mists, enmity faded,
Reinforced their mind, a wall in a tirade. (viii)

SAFE AT THE SHORE

Lifeboat got freedom, float merrily,
Gentle waves of thought kiss lively,
Cherish the wonderful Earth, ocean,
Whispers sultry wind the life listen, (1)

Knows the bottomless depth stays,
Emotion aspiration dream displays,
Link with family, friend, name, stand,
Alone a boat of life yet understand, (2)

Passionate for unexpected rain, wet,
Mesmerizes hilarious moment duet,
Poetic downpour of worries, tension,
Fears the boat to sink, fail all motion, (3)

Distant horizon fearsome disappears,
A boat loses direction, lost to cheer,
A safe harbor, courage supports life,
The rope with the pillar avoids strife, (4)

Wide ocean, long life challenge, stay,
Freedom of life far from shore play,
No one ploughs the field, soul rows,
Ropeless culprit mind sadly shows, (5)

Rebellious the heart, oars disobey,
Create an illusion, unrealistic life plays,
Unaware of rocks beneath life sink,
Resembles like a sinking boat, think, (6)

The pride ego blind mind fiery hell,
Deny the presence of the Lord dwell,
His invisible hand, a string rope tie,
Pillar of trust, belief, a human relies (7)

His infinite mercy shows direction,
A lifeboat moves, finds its destination,
Safe at the shore from deep water,
The abode of the Lord invites sheer. (viii)

BEYOND THE BORDER

She gave the flesh and blood in love,
Her milk and baby grow, cry resolves,
The shanty, unruly matted hairs pour,
Alone in the world, with a child here, (1)

Slim figure, probing eyes, hand extends,
Coins a morsel of food never pretend,
The pang of an empty belly, hunger pain,
Cries of the baby, in the arms, remain (2)

Another world parallel exists, surprises,
The darkness, no future, the night rises,
Inexpressible sorrows, misery, no hope,
Pavement, her world to survive a scope, (3)

The border between flourishing lives,
Invincible, the barrier, hardly believes,
The human is a blessed child of God,
The world is His creation stays absurd (4)

The other side of the wall, happiness, love,
Care, compassion, help, selfless, solve,
Visible luxury, leisure, gold, and a mansion,
She looks, her entry prohibited, awesome, (5)

Life is not a path of thorns to pierce,
Conjugal life is a bed of roses, no fears,
They have a dream, passion, aspiration,
To rise higher their goal, a fascination, (6)

She takes a breath, and darkness covers.
Impregnable the border hardly allures,
The two shores of the river can never meet,
They walk with boots, and she is barefoot. (7)

Dawn to dusk, the east and the west order,
Night opposite day, beyond the border,
Moon rose, dog barks, her baby asleep,
She cannot cross a border water is deep. (viii)

UNEXPECTED RAIN

Visible springtime floats white clouds,
Blossoms' fragrant honey bee shroud
Blue sky, bright sunshine radiates well,
Cool and gentle breeze flows like hail, (1)

Intoxicate unknown pleasures suture,
Happiness, peace, and bliss enamor,
Flock of birds flying in the sky, gaily,
Serenity adds greenery touches truly, (2)

Flow the river, flurry of flood vanish,
Calm waters fishermen a time wish,
Cherish travelers, the train whistles,
Mesmerize the magical time sizzles, (3)

Floated the scenes before the eyes,
Disbelieves the paradise is real, defies,
Remind a blistering summer, faced,
Heavy downpour of rain surfaced, (4)

Contemplated compared, life hazes,
Tormented soul that sought crazes,
Speechless fails to express all vividly,
A dark cloud gathers, spreads rapidly, (5)

Follows behind a dust storm, horrid,
Cover the sunshine raining worried,
Raindrops, a shower of hail strewn,
The drizzle sparks electric life hewn, (6)

A paper boat floats, found the path,
Human life mirrors the same worth,
Grass blocks a paper boat, then sinks,
Trouble visit and quit thought links, (7)

Life never gets drowned, survive well,
An unexpected rain drenches soul fail,
Stay, elixir of life, freshness, moist air,
Raindrops trickle, white noise share, (viii)

SHUN THE LIMELIGHT

Life is a mission, misunderstood.
Prosperity and glamour are food,
Sadly, a soul yearns to be famous,
Knock at the door, unknown curios, (1)

Inevitable exploitation suffering,
A painted face of modernity sings,
Below the skin, it is immeasurable,
The pain and hunger mix is visible (2)

Floodlight, posters, and applause,
Melts very soon, all failure causes.
Public memory is short and fades,
No more favorite pictures tirade, (3)

A limousine and a mansion are old,
Time steals quickly, and gold is sold,
Age is not pink youth, it is shriveled,
A realization dawns that life unraveled, (4)

People who know avoid surprises,
Where has fame missed, realized?
Wasted years missed a family, kids,
Stays alone, aloofness hurts needs, (5)

She looks from the balcony, charms life,
Playful children's parents face strife,
Not a popular, scintillating presence,
Home is their world to live an essence (6)

Continued her thoughts, immersed,
What she achieved found remorse,
Rising every day, teenagers in a line,
Hungry to be rich, dreamed, shine, (7)

Lotus blooms, rose petals fragrant,
The next morning, another flower rant,
Settle calmness and quiet eyesight,
Happy at home, shuns the limelight. (viii)

STAY WITH ME

Light of aspiration, shade to separate,
The plight of a heart communicates,
Vogue emotions thought clueless hurt,
Stay silent, tearful, shy, fail all efforts, (1)

Not a near and dear one feeling exists,
Fail to muster courage, motivate spirit,
Stay aloof, lower the eyes, lips stitched,
Your attractive look links life bewitched, (2)

Could not dare to convey the deep love,
Difficult to express, attempt, and solve,
The same condition, conservative spirit,
Often, on occasion, dreams well excite, (3)

A college career is fascinating to watch,
Followed behind you, unable to search,
Found insecurity, nightmares, and fears,
Hide within the heart, preferred clear, (4)

The fragile nature, guise of a polite voice,
Will you pick my hand tightly, your choice?
Understanding conflict, we try our best.
Shed fear, tension, bold life to interest, (5)

Companionship, convenient, conveys
Forget loneliness, a trustworthy pose,
That need help promised, a life easier,
Angers, stops talking, forgets sooner (6)

Confides a safe hand, heart to believe,
Catch hold of my hand, pleasures thrive.
No conflict, ignominy, or a sad episode,
United we live together, a lifetime record (7)

Show not heaven a paradise, awesome,
Let you stay with me, build a sweet home,
Love is not a bed of roses, thorns prick,
Challenge married life, troubles to trick. (viii)

THE LINGERING SHADOWS

How many dreams were touched?
In silence and darkness, searched,
Shores of the mind fade, magical,
Anchor the lovelorn heart, factual (1)

Aspiration desperation tirade well,
Hope and hopelessness sadly dwell,
Life runs in the quicksand, disappears,
Tears from the sky dewdrops wear, (2)

Cacti in the arid desert bloom well,
Persistent life exists, curiously dwells
Morning sunrise, the shadow lingers,
Evening sunset long shadow singer, (3)

A shadow of the floating cloud moves,
Impermanent and imprints it proves,
Silhouettes of the three birds indicate,
Memory the background intoxicates, (4)

Ravages of bitter fight scar still stay,
Cemetery annual tribute life display,
Unforgettable sacrifices, footprints,
Future generations learn lesson hints, (5)

A past holocaust devastation losses,
Catastrophic climate change curses,
Hunts the nightmare, lively remorse,
Miraculous survival story, of course, (6)

Deserted her love unnoticed quickly,
No reason or explanation, feel sickly,
He had gone for years, didn't return,
Her love knocks unknowingly, often, (7)

Thought all pictures of long shadow,
In the darkness, her eyes express all,
The lingering shadows, like a meadow,
Memories never die, alive, she recalls, (viii)

 LET ME BE IN HELL

The June-August period plays havoc,
Inundate the water, submerge, sock,
Crops under water live on the roof,
The nightmarish nature is poof, (1)

A sudden earthquake crushes lives,
Collapses building survivor lives,
The bridge road fractured, scarring.
Loss of life innumerable, worry, (2)

Earth caves in a mudslide, covers,
Over many homes, life discovers,
Block vehicles on steep slopes, say,
For days, passengers had no way (3)

Spread disease infects many lives,
Bedridden, segregated in strife,
Bitter fights with fever, a battle,
Test of the survivor's slow mettle, (4)

If the economy fails, disaster happens,
Poverty-driven life finds shaken,
No roof, food, or clothes visible,
The darkness remains feasible (5)

Drought, wildfires, and forests burn,
Burns sweet homes, living yearn,
Worn-out future plans, sorrows,
A loan is sinner than a curse shows, (6)

Hold a breath, firefighters save,
Lift the drowning lives, all waves,
Dowses' fire burning disease goes,
Miracle of time heals time show, (7)

Lit the oil lamp, chimes the bell,
Pray before the stone idol, indwell,
Admit self-sacrifice, let me be in hell,
Resurrect world suffer liberate well, (viii)

 NICK OF TIME

Mind is blind, misguiding, mischievous,
Life-threatening danger, stay curious,
Unaware of impending death, senses,
Game of life, encounter fear pretense, (1)

Hope and hopelessness, both shores,
Where the boat of life is heading, fears,
The darkness, depth unknown, rocks,
To sink a matter of time alerts socks, (2)

Hilarious life runs at breakneck speed,
An accident steals a precious life indeed,
Slow and steady, watchful alert saves,
Reaches destination safely, life waves, (3)

Opportunity visits rarely, never return.
Lazy attitude, careless attempt, curtain,
Misses gold, career, and praise totally,
Tension and depression collude fatally (4)

Missing near and dear ones to repent,
Harsh words, unkind hearts represent,
Pluck the blooming flower plant, dies.
Heartless act, unthinkable, sadly defies (5)

The bride collapses, Earth caves in, say,
Life halts, saved from death, find a way,
Life, a long path slips from the ground,
Less find under the feet, gloom found, (6)

A red rose, a pink letter, a proposal wish,
Time elapses, love forgets, and sees perish,
Receive a lovelorn heart wedding card,

Bus scantly reruns the truth nick of time,
All His mercy the Lord plays to shine,
Success and failure paradigm entwine (viii)

SAY IT JUST ONCE

Sensitive Mimosa Pudica exhibits such,
Leaves instantly close, discover a touch,
The feminine instincts like the creeper,
A mere touch feels shy, silently appears, (1)

An ocean of dreams tidal waves elapse,
Suppressed in her heart, her love relapses,
Emotion, motion of thought turbulence,
Her silence, evading eyes, consequence, (2)

Sensations, throbs, and unspoken words,
Stays under the veil inexpressible hour,
Her vanity and modesty cannot afford,
Eyelids lowered glance her love shower, (3)

Untold pain, separation, she failed to say,
Her unknown fear to invite finds no way,
The tender heart, beautiful frame, slim,
A pink letter from her love reads gleam, (4)

Parents, not aware of her secret love,
Hardly confess or confide in life above,
Miss his presence for a long time, sad.
Wait patiently for his letter, day reward, (5)

Never could convey her undiluted love,
She suffered mental agony, failed to solve,
Looked at the starry night, full moon, wind,
The solitude, melancholic music rewind, (6)

A bright sunshine and dusk trigger cruelly,
Tortures lonely night dreams him awfully,
The depth of her attachment is less quoted,
She met several times yet scarcely wrote (7)

Smitten by the bug of love, pure existence,
The conservative family links a resistance,
Say it just once to dad and mother, admit,
Lighter, will be your heart, wedlock credit. (viii)

 FLURRY OF THE FLOOD

A cascade of stream from the hill,
Blue waters, white foams reveal,
Dense forest, steep slopes, rapids,
Human life imitates a picture, insipid, (1)

Contrasts a mural of fiery waters,
Flowing down the hill encounters,
Uprooting trees, moving boulders,
Humans meet challenges, shoulder (2)

Havoc plays the rain river swollen,
Break embankment misery shown,
Temptation, desire, and lust unite,
Fail self-discipline life in bitter fight, (3)

A mirror of anger, an angry river,
The epitome of power lives in shiver,
Submerges villages, cities, and fields,
Human life sinks in remorse yield, (4)

Washed away, homes, depleted crop,
Ill-fate steals peace, happiness, and hope,
The river broke a bridge, Soil caved in.
Mudslide from altitude in between (5)

Alacrity stare breaks a friendship,
The bridge of understanding says flip,
The accusation grudge covers life,
Resemble like Earth, floods strife, (6)

Under moving water, stay grass.
The farmer withstands the fight class.
The urban and rich suffer so often,
Flash flood into the city warns caution, (7)

Several examples of a human life,
A flurry of floods is classic into strife,
Destroys everything, vanishes quickly,
Accept human catastrophe meekly, (viii)
