WHERE AM I GOING WRONG

Wondering b worried I am, is something really wrong with me ?

Is something wrong with my thinking; can I things clearly see ?

Into depression am I slipping; then really careful I got to be

Sensitive I was always, is that why, the world I clealy do see

Or has hypersensitivity got the better of me?

People are busy, but can't I expect their min or two for me ?

Is it a bit too much, if expect this I from relatives n friends for me?

Tell me frankly please, am I slipping into self-pity ?

Where am I going wrong; can you please check n tell me.

Unbearable is your silence grave; n really too long

Help me please to recoup, recover n trudge along

It's months ten, you are gone, n I haven't even crossed a forlong

This is not a game fair, you cannot stay away so long

In my dreams or my subconscious mind, you can come along

Lonely n lost feel I; express this I cannot in my poem or song

Once again I sincerely request you to come; don't take too long

હિંદના દાદા, દાદાભાઈ નવરોજીને અમારા પ્રણામ

એમને, હર ભારતીય નું સર ઊંચું થાય, એવા કારિયા છે, અનેક ગૌરવશાળી, ભલા કામ

આજે ભૂલી રહ્યાં છીએ એમને, જેમને ભીડી હતી અંગ્રેજો સામે હામ

કરે છે "અનાર", હિંદના દાદાજીને, ભાવવિભોર થઈ, પ્રેમભરીયા પ્રણામ.

जिंदगी ओ जिंदगी

कभी फुलोंकी सेज बन जाती है जिंदगी;

कभी कांटो का बिस्तर हो जाती है यही जिंदगी ।

कभी खुशी है; तो कभी दुख है जिंदगी ।

हसाती है यह कभी तो कभी रुलाती है जिंदगी ।

कुछ भी हो, बहुत ही अजीब है यह जिंदगी

अंत तक समझ नहीं सकते है हम, आखिर क्या चीज़ है यह जिंदगी

Dearest darling  Dad

Wishing you a Happy Father's Day; ADM Big hug n a thank you, I wish to say

I never ever thought Mum n you would be right besides me, through my crisis; all the way.

Messages I have received many times, through dreams or as ideas into me planted;

Thank Ahura I sincerely do, for this wonderful security He has to me granted.

Thank you both for enveloping me in your love, safe n secured keeping me;

When mercilessly thrown I was by destiny, into a deep dark roaring sea.

Parents, their children love beyond life, this I believe n very well know;

You both with me, spiritually present n protective are, feel I that cosmic flow

Keep us always under your spiritual protection, the way you do, night n day;

May you both n our dear ones to higher realms progress; for this, I daily pray.

Your ever loving daughter

COMMERCE

Sadly money n influence have taken over the beauty of closeness in relationships.

Commerce today is important very, really proactive; not actual relationships

Modern youth/ children, money respect, more than their parents;

Siblings their spouses love more than their own blood; sad moments !

Daughters-in- law, even call elderly parents- in-law, dustbins;

Most pathetic to watch are such actual daily life scenes

Education should, our humility increase, instead fans it, our ego's fire

Watching all this decline in Your creation; Lord, doesn't it, You ire?

Commerce n science, instead of improving the situation, corrupts our mind

Religion today, commerce promotes n sadly divides mankind.

भरम

बस एक झलक पाते ही, आपके ख़यालो में हो गए मशरूफ;

सपनों की दुनिया में खो गए; और यहां से शुरू हुई तकलीफ़

देखा जो आपको, अपने ही दिल के हाथो, हो गए मजबूर

इश्क़ के हाथो बिक गए;  आप के नाम से जुड़ कर, होना था मशहूर ।

पर आंख खुली तो समझ में आया, यह था एक जूठ, एक भरम

समझाया अपने आप को,  शायद ऐसे अच्छे नहीं थे हमारे करम

इसी लिए बन के हम आंधी और तूफान से अनजान;

बिना समझे, जला दिया एक दीया आंधी में; जगा लिया दिल में तूफान

जीवन भर डोलेगी नैया, मिलेगा नहीं कभी साहिल

डूब जाएगी यह कश्ती, गहरी है झील; मिलेगी नहीं कभिभी मंज़िल ।
