BIRTHDAY CANDLES

Aryans, Arya Puthr we are,  that's why rever FIRE  we do;

And that's why this little suggestion, I  bring to you

This way, by burning a candle/Diya besides, we give the fire,  its reverence due

Besides point this, it's an important matter of hygiene too

Blow when you the candles, with your sputum,  contaminate the cake you do

So before you cut the cake,  close your eyes n make your wish; it will come true.

HAPPY ENLIGHTENING BIRTHDAY TO YOU.

THAT SANTA WITHIN US

Don't worry about his looks, no beard, required nor is the red coat or cap;

Santa has pockets huge,  but we just need, in our hearts, a slit or a flap

Rudolph and reindeers other, may need a clasp or a strong strap;

But need we,  just a burning desire to help another just a coins few to buy a  pen or put a kid on our lap

To bring out that  hidden Santa, just smile, laugh n clap.

Merry Christmas,  and a happy New Year from this Santa, without a cap

Seems, humans have lost it, become they have insane;

So many millions homeless they have made; so many thousands they have slain

Do not understand I,  why to others,  they cause  such horrid pain

Money n fame,   last long do not, neither does power; it's logic simple n plain

What then, do we humans, from our behavior so cruel n atrocious gain?

PATHS

Paths in our lives differ,  they are varied, so very many;

Each of us  has a path different, zig-zag, some straight, few even uncanny

some souls live a life mundane, some exciting and  very adventurous;

Depending on how one marches onward, how one goes ahead n ventures.

Journeys often rough are, very few are picture perfect or  fine;

But we are on our way to a destination single; that is to merge with the divine.

TUBES    . .. Here a tube , there a  tube,  everywhere  a tube, tube  ;

Locked up in a tiny room I am, as if in a cube

One  for intake  of oxygen, one for output of peritoneal drainage

Both in and out  of my Parsi nose; what an outrage !

Yet another from the bladder, n intravenous on my hands both

Two at the feet, to  circulation  help; only these 2, I do not loathe.

Lord, You  made  our body so perfect,  oozing with health ;

When ill, we humans try to it repair,  spending enormous wealth.

Always try and have a good cause  close to your heart.

Then,  slowly, but steadily, of your very being, make it a part.

Says "Anar", please try your very best, to inculcate this art
