we rest riverside
enwhispered in the twilit waters flow
seduced by the poplar grove
gently bending stalks
making way for the windswalk
forever let us lie this way
mud sand sun
minds eye unsay
ere new world takes our fantasies away

The way I look,
The way I feel,
The way I smile,
The way I speak!

When I'm"ME",
people have issues,
They ask me to change saying,
"I have certain issues!"

THEIR wishes, are my EXUDES.
Their choices are not in my tissues!
I know i sound rude,
I know i sound cruel,
I'm raw, I'm me & that's my fuel!
Let's stop discriminations & comparisons...
Let's start being ourselves!

मेरी देशभक्ति सिर्फ मुज तक नहीं,
ये बात मैं भी जानती  हूँ .
हर एक देशवासी मायने रकता है
ये बात मैं भी मानती हुँ !

बात  करते  हो  तुम  दुश्मनो  की,  
हम  तोह पूरी  दुनिया  को जुंजाला  दे !
बात  करते हो  तुम  धरती की ,
हम  तोह  पूरा  आसमान  हिला  दे !

इस मिट्टी से सब जुड़े है हम ,
इस मिट्टी मैं मिल जाएगे .
तिरंगे के रंगो से जुड़े है हम,
इन रंगो मैं घुल जाएगे !

जंग के मैदानों मैं भी, भूमि-माँ ने मुझको संभाला है !
खड़ा उठ और कर देश की रक्षा ,
ऐसा हौसला दिया है !

जवान है हममैं,
जवान है तुममें ,
इस बात को अब तुम मान लो .
छोड़ो अपने ही देश से लड़ाई ,
अब एकता को तुम भी अपना लो !
Wishing you all a very happy Independence week:-)

I love the long grass
A shady summer tree
The sound of childrens laughter
Because it's free

Summer moons
At the end of June
When the crickets are all you hear

But most of all I love the fall
And the turning of the leaves

Give me fields where daisies grow
And Queen Annes lace in bloom
Golden rod that gently nods
And of course my Aster Blue

Aster Blue I remember You
A true heart open wide
There's a special place in Gods embrace
For one so sweet and kind

And so I love that time of year
When the asters come to bloom
I know that you are out there too
Sharing the same moon

I
keep
leaving
cues
that
no-one
picks
up;
like
autumn
leaves
in
the
wind;
lost
inarticulate,
more than anything;

At the depths of time,
Sediment and sea,
Things begin to sink more frequently,
And down and deep,
Where the water stays cold,
A fish of knowledge
Will feast and get old,
She has no mate,
no companion in life
But an unlimited feast
preserved in the night.

Never take anyone
for granted,
you don't realize
how much you need them
until they're gone
