Life is a contained existence

that each person solely own

sharing it with others is a choice

like peeping through the window

could help decide whether or not

to open the door for relations



Looking through

one sees the panorama

that shows loveliness or malice

the world has possessed

as it displays the scenic realities

of the human existence



Our hearts too mimic

the opening of a pane

when it dares to venture

as its feeling best for love (or hate)

upon reckoning of freedom

through the windowpane

When life becomes meaningless
no matter what you do seems useless
and all opportunities you grab wasted
broken dreams lurking with self busted
everything you hold on now starts to fall
drags your feeling pushed against the wall
realization of your life is at the cutting edge.

When life becomes the darkest
no hope of light made you weakest
things you touched soon are dead
failure always cling to you instead
you try to survive from uncertainties
yet your ego succumbs to all the vanities
Doubt overcomes self falling to the cutting edge.

Though life becomes vague
Do not give up to fight the plague
For quitters do not win any endeavor
Hang-on lit the ember to light you with fervor
For as long as you have the courage to go forward
Then no amount of deterrents can make you a coward
And in the end you will be able to override the cutting edge.

Composing poetry
quite a complex tapestry
its a product of ingenuity
waved into genuine artistry

Don not know to begin
a poem that would explain
these innate sentiments
contain sensitive elements

like an inborn waver
who creates with art
through skillful work
guided by the heart

The beauty in poetry
is not seen by the eyes
but felt by the emotions
that define the human

Writing is like waving
poetic thoughts flowing
are instinctively woven right
which interpolates the human life

waving poetry is sentimental labor
it does require a mental endeavor
enthuses freedom of expression
about the human life's exploration

Time flies swiftly
as the wind drifts chilly
soothing this forlorn heart
as I stand still when you depart

Time seems eternity
as days sway in continuity
longing for your presence
as I feel void in your absence

Time is life I take
as true love I cannot forsake
lingering in time I'll be wishing
till the end of time I'll be waiting

Lots of things we always share
even our own secrets we bare.
And we tackle all things under the sun
Heaven knows that it gave us much fun.

Friendship we have is formidable
In being compatible we acted adorable.
Good rapport is a relation we both like
Uncovering the bad ones we most dislike.
Even when our lives get low and rough
Reassurances we uttered make us tough.
On dealing with the trials and temptations
As friends we achieved triumphant solutions.

Many times in the past we almost lost
A relationship we build and cherish most.
God knows how much we two both care
Laughing at jokes that we salways share.
And being together after many long years
Never we become too proud to shed tears.
Gals like us must show and learn to survive,
In order our bond becomes strongly alive
To make this friendship last with pride.

Nature when angered can unleash...

A storm resulting to havoc,
like a devastating cyclone that bring chaos.

Much more of the tormenting tornado,
that can strike like a deadly hurricane.

And the tropical storm
that can create a downpour of heavy rain.

Thus, the varying monsoon defines
a typhoon to bring horrendous effects to humans.

May tomorrow makes you realize my boy
In this world your life is not a toy
Can you not listen to my lecturing
Hear me when I am talking
At this moment in time
Exert your effort to shine
Let your energy flow freely
At things worthwhile not deadly
Now is the time to understand
Go for good things at hand
Evil things never bring good
Living with it excites bad mood
Overcome all trials as you could.

My son I do care for you
And your mom too loves you
Reach out for your ambition
View life as innate inspiration
In the end you will succeed
Now act best and proceed.

Play your part as cool
In dealing with any fool
Zealous act is best
At time to pass a test
Receive all good advices
Real man can say no to vices
On his own stead without caprices.

Beware of evil company
Refute the tale of baloney
Attend to those with good characters
Treat them as your own brothers
Over the bad others.
