785. Turning grey
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Now a days
People see my hair

And asks me
Do something

Part of your black hair

Turning into grey

Stop thinking too much

Apply a hair dye

You are too young to
look old

What I think is

Color can change

My age
My look
My charm

Is it what I want
to exhibit

My intention is to
radiate knowledge

Like many of those

Burning candles do

sacrificing themselves

for the sake of us
If I cannot give something
to others
Then what is my purpose

It's not about my life

It's all about

How I live with others

Humanity is a virtuous
Thing

Everyone has to

Grow it

for the

righteous kingdom

of happiness

we all dream for

784. Right or not
Babu kandula Oct 2014
We all know what is right
And what Is not?

Angels and demons

Mentor us everytime

So whom you choose is in
Your hands

Mistakes are common
But, we have to judge ourself

Question yourself

Is it right or not?
Tried for another
Not inspiring
But
Questioning???

783. Dreams
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Do
Dreams
Come
True??

I had some
Dreams
That came
Into existence

I can feel it
Sometimes

It happened
Early to me

But, not in reality
Only in my dream
Did anyone have this
Thing happened
Or am I imagining things

Please let me know

Please

782. No one is alone
Babu kandula Oct 2014
No one can save us
If we think we are all alone

Have a
Look at the heart
Pumping for you 24/7

Have a
Look at the lungs
Purifying our deoxygenated
to oxygenated blood

Have a
Look at the kidneys
Recycling our body

They are working for you

Only for you

No matter what
You are not alone

Wonderful soul and
It's capabilities
Tried to prove we are not lonely

I guess ...

I am write

But,
need to know
if someone
objects

Life is a gift
and
Life is boon

Never ever
fall in the pits
of discouragements

781. Be safe
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Ebola
Infections

Contact with
Body fluids
Blood
Saliva

Causes
Rashes,
Diarrhoea,
Fever,
Cough

It was small
But very clever

Attacks our immune system

Having high mortality rate
Sources say that it reached Cleveland, Akron

780. Falling rocks
Babu kandula Oct 2014

I thought I am a
Falling rock

But, the support I
Got from everyone
Made me rethink

There was a hidden
Statue inside me
Which needs to be
Carved
A beautiful one
Like
Statue of Liberty
A gift of friendship
From France to United States

Which will bring me lot of friends
together

Irrespective of
Region,
Religion,
Color

And no differences
Will come in the middle

A Unity in diversity
Is achieved
indeed

When I see
In the mirror

I can see my
Reflections

Truly I am the
Reflection of
My parents

When we look for
origins
Where we
Come from?

This water, air,
Fire, earth

All are perfect
Reflections of almighty

With or without different
Physical appearances

Utilizing those divine
Elements we are leading
Our lives
Tried for reflection
May be not
Couldn't write more
I am feeling sorry
For the incompleteness

778. Not to dwell
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Donot dwell in past

And have no dreams for
Future

Concentrate on the present

Why we dwell in past?
Those memories have
Lot of impact on our mind

They seem real yes of course
But from past

It no more exists

Good or bad we have to
Let it go

And be strong

Don't fear the situations

Remember
They are here to test you
From Buddha quotes
Everyone is tested

777. Never changes
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Things can never
Change

If you worry
How it change

It's matter of time

You can have
The ripen fruits

Fragrant flowers

You need to spare
Some time
And wait

And let it happen

If something comes fast
It may leave you soon

See for the brighter side

Look at the shinning sun

And move on
Some things will really come fast
And they leave us soon

776. Your Prayer can help
Babu kandula Oct 2014
If nature
  Shows it's
Fierce
  What we can
Do

Sandy in
US

Now,
Hudhud
cyclone
in India

News visuals
shivers me

No food,
No shelter,

Looking for help

Calm and
Violent

What can I
say about this
painful situation

May God bless them
Please pray for
those people
struggling out

775. Unintentional
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Trouble
Comes close
Like a

Dark cloud

Which will

Cause violent
Thunder storm

I am single
May be we all

Fighting hard for a
Place to survive

Blood becomes
Cold

I feel the warmth
Dissipating from me

Soul is free

My mind is
Freeze

I need a heal
I need a medicine
Hardly

Something like
Self healing

To test my inner
Strengths
Healers can help me to
Function normally

But, it's me who should
Have the desire to live

I lost somewhere in the middle
I don't know why and how I wrote this

But came

Unintentionally

774. Complications
Babu kandula Oct 2014
I am deaf

I am dumb

If you ask me

Why this
Unconditional
Love and
Care
On me

Did rain
Showers
For a reason

Did sunshines
For a reason

Yes, of course
For us

We really cannot
Say how we
Care
It's complicated

773. Dreaming
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Dreaming
In a day light

Looks for a
Change in path

Everyday starts
With same
Alarm rings

Running for the
Food

Running for the
Pay

Robots feel
Better
Not us

Cause we are
Just imitating
Them

No soul in the work
Only physical presence

This is it
Repeats
Day to day
In life
Tried to craft
Other side of
Life

772. Ticket
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Get the ticket
Take the train

Into my soul

You own my heart
That was deep in love

Like no one can
See
Like no one can
Feel

you only have access

Take the train
Into my soul

Get into me
Randomly wrote it
Don't know how it came
Oct 2014 · 395
771. Being
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Becoming big
Means

Losing part of life
And counting
Rest of life

It also means
Being apart
From many

We do have many
Works
So not in a position to
Get together
With everyone
Inspired from a dialogue

770. Emotions
Babu kandula Oct 2014
What makes
Us

Angry

A Scratch on
Our brand
New car

Sad

Poor
Performance of
Our home team

Excited

Release of
iPhone 6

Because my emotions
Are confined to only
Commodities that I use

This is life

Which has meaning
In other words

769. Changes
Babu kandula Oct 2014
If ,,

Line changes(phone)
We Will be
Connected
To a stranger

If,,

Life changes(marriage)
We Will be
Connected
To a stranger

We are spectators
And passive
Players
In some situations
There are
Many more
In life
We are spectators
Babu kandula Oct 2014

767. Cloudy
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Clouds has something
To say

I am white
I will stay
Long

I am black
I will release
My tears

I am precious
Only source for
Fresh water

I am dangerous
Can cause
Wild storm
Pros and cons
Combination is life

766. Darkness
Babu kandula Oct 2014
As all we know
Light as a source

Darkness
Absence of that source

If we are in darkness
that means

We know what is
Light

But, not known
where is the switch

Trigger of life is
somewhere hidden

It is our duty to
seek

I am still a seeker
my search will be continued

765. Catch me if you can
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Scratching my
Head

Looking at the
Clock

My simple
Thought

Why were you so
Fast

If you challenge me
Like this
"Catch me if you can"

I am sorry I can't

Many seconds I lost
Like raining drops

Many minutes I lost
Like flying seeds

Many hours I lost
Like falling rocks

Many days I lost
Like moving clouds

Many years I lost
Like thunder strike
What is left is
Me
What is left is
My clock
Ticking every time
No need to change
Battery
It's solar power
Reminds me of
Every thing
I missed
Babu kandula Oct 2014
Every relation
Has
Love
The basis

Fights
Arguments
Discussions
Debates
Understandings
Misund­erstandings
Egoes
Care
Helping

Both pluses
And minuses

If you run away
From this

You will not
Be complete

You are incomplete
Thought of relations
And there equations

761. List of
Babu kandula Oct 2014
You gave me
What I need

But, why I still
Ask you
Something

Everyday
Every minute
Every second

Is it my nature
Or I am controlled
By demon???

Desire
Dreams
Your blessing

It doesn't matter
If they are fulfilled or not
But, my list is not at all
Empty
Carrying a list of desires

760. Golden ring
Babu kandula Oct 2014
She asked me for a
Golden ring

I said if I offer you the
Ring

I will never let you go

You will be my half

And that's it she lost the desire
of Golden ring

;-)
I still don't know why she stopped
Asking for it
Babu kandula Oct 2014
As days passes
I look for improvement
If I couldn't find one

So I walk down
to the Memory lane

Will grab the situations
where I got Freedom
to crawl
to cry
to express

This walk through of
my past

Completeley cools down
the depressed state of mind

Helps me to Tranquil my thoughts
Which is me inside me
Thoughts are me and
Moments of my life
can cure and heal my
Thoughts
May be this isn't that
good
I made it up everything

758. Divinity
Babu kandula Sep 2014
One day I forgot my
Phone

And I need to make a
Call

Guess what happened...

I explained my situation to a
Stranger

He gave his phone and said use it

And when returning his phone I offered money

He smiled and said "this is not I want
A smile from you that's enough"

From That moment I came to know
God can come in any form and can help us

Yes, humans are infinite incarnations of God

But, sometimes we are deviating from divinity to profanity

757. Thank you moments
Babu kandula Sep 2014
If I have to thank

There are lot in
My list

Father, mother, sister
Relatives, friends
Neighbors
Some strangers
Lot more

Thankful moment of
My life
This happened almost
5 years ago
I am in a bus and
My co-passenger
An elder person(in 60's)

It took half an hour to start a
Conversation
And finally I started with a smile
And said where are you heading
It's coincidence our destination is same
Then we had a long chat it almost took
3 hours and still running
We reached our destination and when leaving he said to me "I am a retired teacher and for a long time I am feeling uneasy"
"Because I cannot express my views these days and I had this information and a good teacher is not happy sitting idle. Your company gave me an opportunity to teach something and I am very happy. It's like repaying a mortgage of millions of dollars. Thank you". He said.

This one moment of my life made me feel like yes, I did something
Thank you God for this moment

I know This is not a great thing
But, I want to share this
Always listen to elders
They only need us to listen

756. It was me!!!
Babu kandula Sep 2014
It was me
Who was in
Despair

It was same me
Who was in
Hope

So what was me

I am inseparable

That's me

I am been everything
My thoughts are me

Hard to get out of it

755. Attitude
Babu kandula Sep 2014
We had a conversation

In middle
We got to a point
Why we had a fall in our life?

I said,
Tide has both rise and fall
So as life

As we are not interested in
failures

We feel bad for it

Tide must rise at some point of time
and fall at some point

If you look at only the fall

Then it's your mistake

You are not gonna enjoy
your successes

Attitude makes the difference

754. Analogy
Babu kandula Sep 2014
Why this wind
loves us

If it disappears
for one minute

Millions will be
suffocated

Why this earth
loves us

If it stops
attracting

Can we imagine
our survival

There love is
Unconditional
Earth here is Mother
Wind here is Father

753. Possess

752. Inner soul haunts
Babu kandula Sep 2014
If I tried
I would be a
Pilot
If I tried
I would be a
Doctor
If I tried
I would be a
Sportsman
But, I will be
Sitting in my
Comfort zone and
Imagine about my
Abilities
These feelings just makes me feel
Nothing is great
It's all about learning and getting
But, to be frank I will not try
It's just a beautiful imagination to make
Myself comfortable that I am not that bad
But, inner soul haunts me what are you
Upto now?
My answer is nothing
I am trying to escape from it
With random answers and responses

Launching station
Babu kandula Sep 2014
When I first
Saw snow flakes
They look like
Kind of cotton pieces
Light in weight
White in color

As leaves started
Changing colors
Into golden yellow
I thought of it's beauty
But, to my surprise they
Started falling
This is my first time
I have seen trees completely
Losing all of the leaves
But stay alive. It was wonder to
Me. How can that happen
Later I get used to it

Like a child I play with snow
Making snowman and hitting
Friends with snow *****

My childhood was snowless
Now I am fulfilling my desire
Because there is no age limit for
Having fun and joy
Couldn't write better
Because i only had two
Snowfalls in my life...

749. Two choices
Babu kandula Sep 2014
You gave me two choices

Be brave and leave me
                 Or
Be great and live with me

I am neither brave to leave you
Nor great to lose you

I am one little heart
Who was anticipating
For the future

Either living or leaving

748. Days
Babu kandula Sep 2014
Days never ask for a recap
Night never ask for a retry
Good or other
They go without complaint
They don't feel a pain
They don't need a gain
Doing there part
In every half of the day
This is life
Nothing stops
If you look and yell
At them
You may be in pain
You may get a win
They do there part
Want to tell
Nothing will stop
For us
Everything is busy

Babu kandula Sep 2014
Somewhere and
Some how
You hit my little
Heart
with a bowling ball

It's a strike

Not one time
But, everytime
You hit me
hard

I am letting you win
Breaking my heart
into 10 pieces

You were happy for
your strike

I am so happy
I let you win
Thought of you
That provoked me
to write this cute
little one

Babu kandula Sep 2014
Where is God?
Did he really exists?
Do you believe in God?
If so show him to me??
Series of questions...

My reply

Can you show me your pain?
Can you tell me the reason for your birth?

If you can give answers to any of my questions
I will be your devotee

743. Need???
Babu kandula Sep 2014
Do we really
Need Churches
Temples, Mosques???

Yes, we do need them

Holy prayers
Discourses
Chanting in the name of God
Gathering of people with pleasant thoughts

These are all positive energies
Which will be making that particular
Place a sacred place

So this energy is what we need for
Us... Which is good for us
Yes, good is God
My opinion on all Churches, Temples and Mosques.
It may be true may not be
But, it's my belief

Babu kandula Sep 2014
From
Sky
We reached
The wind,
From the wind
We have entered
Into fire,
From fire
We fell on water,
And from
Water we
Dropped on the
Earth like a
Seed,
Then we
Started
Growing like
A plant,
The food from
The plants ate by
My parents
There started my
Journey as a
Human.

739. Did sun rises?
Babu kandula Sep 2014
Sun rises
In the east

Sun sets
In the west

Universal fact

But,
What is reality

It's earth which
Has day and night

Not the sun
Rising and
Diminishing

Don't trust your eyes
Everytime

Because all you see
Isn't true
Sometimes it may be
False
Inspired from Swamy Paripurnananda sarawsati
Babu kandula Sep 2014
Words ---
As the context
Changes
The fillers
I mean the
Words play a
Different role

Screen
To show something
To hide something

Resign
To quit
To sign up again

Words that sound same
But have different meaning

Quiet
Making no noise
Quite
Absolutely

Pray
Expression of thanks to a deity
Prey
Hunt and **** for food
be careful
With the words
They have hidden
Two or more meanings
