Healing

When we lose a close one,
When we face a breakpoint,
When we front onto a loss,
We may be heartbroken.
But should we lead it to ruin our being?

Instead of cursing the universe,
Let our wounds heal,
Let us face our scars,
And let it all turn into beautiful memories.

It sounds terribly easy,
To talk about healing,
When we are unaware,
About what one is dealing, with.

But let us put a helping handout,
To the ones suffering,
So that the pain turns into healing
and that blemish turns pleasing.

Never Say Die

Have you ever heard the birds say 'No'?
Have you ever heard the birds ask 'why'?
They fly the limitless sky,
And do away with the shy.

But why are we humans so sly?
Why do we keep on our pry?
Why are we so ready to desert,
Instead of having hope to assert?

Birds can be a source of inspiration,
If we can run wild our imagination,
A rooster says rise and awake,
A duck says dance and shake,
A penguin says be classy,
A humming says be observant and safe.

It's time we pursue from the birds,
How to never say die,
Always keep our heads high,
And how to freely fly!

Pancakes

Sometimes with jam,
Sometimes with ham,
This breakfast turns yum, each time!

Mix a pancake,
Stir a pancake,
Whip it if you can.

Blend a pancake,
Toss a pancake,
Fry it in your pan.

Play with the batter,
Let's not wait for the flutter,
And when it pops up,
Let's add lots of butter.

Sometimes with jam,
Sometimes with ham,
This snack turns yum, each time.
So let's enjoy it with our fam!

The Lighthouse

It is said that,
You can draw warmth
From a distance.

I recently found myself,
Immersed in a notion,
Of  drawing positivism,
From a faraway land.

This homo sapien says,
Go the extra mile.
It seems to add purity to the gile.

This humankind always brightens,
The day with a smile.
And seems to go on,
To deep thoughts for a while.

He provides the hope of humanity,
It somehow takes away my insanity.
We talk about human mortality,
Flesh and society.
He provides insight about,
poles apart fraternity.

The dialect gets my intellect aroused
I call him the farway 'Lighthouse'.

Why do you not ask: Am I happy?

You ask, how am I doing?
You enquire, how was my day?

You ask, how did I like my food?
You probe, if I am doing any good.

You ask, how did I do at school today?
you snoop whether I took a dip at the pool today.

You ask, how was the weather?
You ask, did I see the birds flock the feather?

You ask if my family approves,
you dig if my friends disapprove.

But why is it that you never ask,
Am I happy?
