It means a Lot

It Means A Lot

When you smile while deep in pain
Want to run but stumble down a lane
Need to fly but melancholy holds you down
It's light you need but night in the town

Each blow of wind pushes you back
Desperate and tired and lose the track
No ray of hope in sight you behold
Days are dark , dusky , tough and cold

But ...
You move and move and move and move
Promises and strength you show and prove
'Not STOPPING' a conquest 'Not quitting' is a win
Nothing more obligatory but the Growth Within

REQUISITE
Shubhkiran Nov 2023
REQUISITE

A little pat on the back
A caring smile to cheer
Few gentle words of love
Is all I crave to hear

After a tiring day at work
When I struggle to cope
Petite errands , the petty tasks
Concerns and your aid my only hope

Beaten with race I run alone
The stress I would have met
Through this journey of everyday
Wounds of dejection I may get

On all such days of  every week
All I heed is your comforting tone
A reminder that you love me
An assurance that I am not alone

Beauty
Shubhkiran Jun 2023
Beauty, a mystic veil  gracing our sight,
Weaving its spell with colors so bright,
A tapestry of wonders across the land.
In every corner, both humble and grand.

Mountains that pierce through the misty gloom,
In sunrise's blush, a radiant bloom,
The sky ablaze with hues of gold,
A masterpiece of nature untold.

Beauty whispers in a gentle breeze,
In the flutter of wings and rustle of trees,
Caressing petals, their delicate grace,
An orchestra of life, a sacred space.

Dwelling in eyes of the souls we meet,
In laughter's melody, so pure and sweet,
Reflecting stories, both joy and despair,
In tears that cleanse, showing we care.

Beauty rests not solely in form or face,
It can radiate from a loving embrace,
In kindness given, in love that's true,
A timeless essence, forever anew.

In the presence of beauty, hearts take flight,
In simplest moments, in the grandest sight,
So let us seek the beauty all around,
For it's in admiration we are truly found.

On Rose Day
Shubhkiran Jun 2023
Casting aromal spell
Dainty petals of Rose
The loveliest present
For me you chose
My tinest of talks
You listen , you heed
Your smile ,your kiss
Is all I need
Not even need to
Speak of Love
Your lovely deeds
A blessing from above
Make me fly
Make me bloom
Among the stars
To the moon

Tiny to Mighty
Shubhkiran Jun 2023
In the depth of Earth lies a seed
Full of might but not attention to heed
Carrying within life's infinite grace
A mark of hope in it's humble embrace

From  quite slumber it begins to awake
Seeking the sun a new journey to take
Roots reach deep anchoring the ground
Drawing the life and seeking around

With vigor and hope it sprouts and grows
Frail shoots emerging reaching the glows
Leaves unfurl so vibrant and green
Testament of Nature a marvel to be seen

seasons change it stands and thrives,
Blossoming to beauty, as purpose arrives.
From the tiniest seed, a mighty Oak can rise,
Granting the shade and shelter paradise

Oh , the wonders it has in the core
Admiring the miracles nature has in store.
So cherish the seed, embrace its worth,
For in its actuality lies the miracle of birth

Circle of Time
Shubhkiran Jun 2022
Circle of Time

Thrown to the dirt
Kicked by the fail
I learnt to crawl
To rise and sail

And lying in rain
Facing the storm
I spread my roots
From inside I reform

Bearing the weather
The drought the flood
The roots I strengthen
Endured through the bud

Complete and clear
The circle of time
Nothing is for forever
Be awful or prime

I have changed
I am not the same
I have grown up
With time , with Pain

Despite the toughest
The fights and gloom
I refused to quit
Stand tall and Bloom

Gifts of Valentine
Shubhkiran Feb 2022
Gift of Valentine

Essence of none Rose
Delicacy of an attire
Sparkle of no Gem
Could one as much admire
As the gift of Faith
As care for Esteem
The strength of Trust
Much pretty may seem
Assisting to Grow
Swayed not by Face
Supporting to Rise
Beauty of soul you embrace
The bond of Liberation
The unison of Two
Enlightens and not Enslaves...
The Love.. which is True.

A Jack of All
Shubhkiran Sep 2021
Never think you lost ,
You are good for none,
You could have missed,
Still a lot is done,
Spots on the face
Show that you grew
To lose... Still play,
How well you knew,
Not all the kings
Do wear a crown
Some faced a battle
And refused to drown
It's okay to err
It's normal to fail
The life is harsh
But you try to sail
Choose Yourself...
You want to see
Let the world shine
With the spark of ye
One may stumble
But make up the fall

A master of none ..
maybe Jack of all.....

The Obscure
Shubhkiran Jun 2021
There is a farther world,
There is another life,
The denied one.... But actual,
Limiting the peace
Creating the strife.
The one is of body,
Full of desires and dreams,
Our wishes, our plight,
Swayed by false esteem.
Other being...
Of the soul,
Is pure , is pious , is true ,
The earlier you realise ,
Sooner you credit too...

Forever Love
Shubhkiran Feb 2021
Forever it goes ,
Far over it blows ,
Drenched and soaked
Still revealing ; even cloaked,
Taking over the whole of me,
You and I mingling in 'We',
Let it stay, let me imbibe,
All the leaning that You vibe,
The poise of my eyes
My smile that grew,
nothing it is ...
but a glimpse of You,
Forever will it be,
Your oath I trust,
Our bonding is  of Gold
It will never rust .

LOVE
Shubhkiran Feb 2020
So far... But yet so near,
Not in sight.. But very clear,
Not a single word.. Yet I Hear,
Not even mine.. But very Dear,
Nudge wasn't there... But I Feel,
Through the invisible.. Glance I steal,
From your Hiding .. a lot You reveal,
Give the **** ..and only You heal,
I am elated.... Is it  Love?
Or a Boon or Blessing from Above.

ENTITY
Shubhkiran Jan 2020
Nothing it is.... But a soapy bubble,
On the ocean of life; a delicate Hubble.
Sun shines and pours in the Light,
Made of calmness,  serene and bright.
Rainbow on edges, over and above,
Dazzling it is ,as heaven of Love.
And we are unaware,asleep...
Living in Fantasies ,through false we sneak,
Denying the Real, unknowing the Known,
Not seeking the Truth , never see the Shown.
Not hearing the Told, not feeling the Felt,
Blocking the warmth for heart to melt,
The bubble will vanish in a blink of eye,
Standing we shall be... facing the Sky.
So,
Learn to see beyond the soapy wall,
Vast skies shall not let you fall,
Seek... and you shall find,
Ask.....and you won't be denied,
Life is above the bubble,
Not inside of it,
Nothing it is,  
But a dream of the Spirit.

Find Your Breeze
Shubhkiran Dec 2019
The Breeze is alone,
For years .... It has blown,
Over the flowers.. over the sand,
Unnoticed, unimportant always bland,
Yet,
Waited for and sought,
Wanted it is and wished for a lot,
Soothing... and caressing the hair,
Kissing the cheeks when solitarily you stare,
Whistles it blows... When lonely you feel,
Fragrance of flowers ... For you it steals,
For you it's still.. for you it blows,
For you it dies and for you it grows,
With you it laughs and with you it cries,
Over the hills, battling the skies.

Who's your Breeze? Do try to find,
That One Unique.. with whom you bind,
Whose being never seen but felt,
For you whose heart will always melt,
Around you always and forever,
In the misery ..who will leave you never,
When you find the sheer stranger though..
Don't let him leave , don't let him go,
For
It's your Light, your Life, your Breeze. ..
Small gestures of care will make It Please.

A Prayer
Shubhkiran Dec 2019
Abandon me never, My Light...
For,
You are the heat in my fire,
The Sparkle ...I admire!
The Life...In my breath,
For my heart you are Beth,
A shine in me You kindled,
All the negatory was swindled,
Abandon me never... My Light,
For,
My tenacities you don't let weaken,
Always guiding..You are my beacan,
Forgiving my sins.. always you support
In plight and agony,
I come thy Porte,
Tend to me ...Your lap I seek
Listen always...
As to you when I speak,
I' m on my knees ,
I surrender...
With You in sight...
Abandon me never.....
O My Light!

To Nature
Shubhkiran Dec 2019
Let fall on me
Thy Light! Thy Shine!
Deep...deeper inside ,
And brighten the inside of mine.
Let the Aura illuminate..
The Truth around,
And into the goodness
Do I surround
The Path to others may I show,
Pity and faith inside me grow.
Give me the Vision ..I wish to see
Your image in all
And set me free
Set ablaze..my ego ,my pride,
Awaken the benevolence,
and to goodness I stride
Drown my lust,drown my greed,
Let humanitarianism be my creed.
Learning always....but..to spread
Odourous I become, fragrance I spread.
Don't steal my intentions! Failures ... don't dare!!
Helping I be! Productive do I bear.
My wish to grow, desire to excel
Allow the compassion in me to dwell.
Guide me deem...
everyone has Your tint
I beg Your wisdom
To be my glint!!!
