Rain

Rain drops rain falls

Raining on every one

Rain drops

On tree tops
Washing away the dirt
With clean leaves to boast

Rain falls

On roof tops

Cooling the heated walls
Soothing the abode 

Rain falls

On plains

And lush fields
Dancing with pride

Rain falls 

On dried charred earth

Quenching its thirst

Of many a years

Rain falls

On mountain tops

Decorating it with wild flowers
Rocks shine from afar

Rain drops

On breached hearts

To give renewed hope
And live yet again
Rain drops 
On saddened eyes
Brightening its sight
To see new dreams

Rain drops 

On all alike
Guiding a way
 To continue
And never stop believing
In you!

Thank you God for every thing

I thank you lord of the universe so vast

Beyond our imagination you cast

A tapestry of wondrous scenery

A heaven and earth made

Especially for us

To praise you and seek your blessings

A home made suitable for us to live

And adorned it for our benefit

As you knew very well

How ungrateful we will be

For all that you have given us

Never thank full for your mercy

You created us from scratch 

And gave us the knowledge that we possess

We think we can accomplish every thing

In fact we are capable of nothing

Without your guidance and benevolence
Our minds too small to grasp it all
Make us turn to you for all our needs
Rest assured that you will make
Every thing all right for us
Granting us a second chance
With a clean slate we advance
And error yet again
  But you are the one who never tires

To forgive us and forget our sins
If only we have faith in you

Can we succeed and live anew

Lovelorn

Without you I just exist
I sleep but not dream

I live but I am not alive

I laugh but I am never happy

Every day a passing agony

Each step a mountain to climb

The winding clock has me entwined

In its ticking music of time

The grey evening so bleak

Silently bickering in mockery

Making fun of my misery

I wonder at my self in disbelieve

Why does love elude me?

Will loneliness be my destiny?

As I argue with myself

I wonder if this is how you felt

When you went so far away from me

Do you ever think about me?

Is this pain in your heart too

Do you ache for me the way I do?
Or is it just my fantasy?

While you were gone

The sun was shining

Days passing

Nights were serene and quiet

But you were missing

From my life

Only then did I realize

How empty it all seems

When there is not you beloved

To hold you in loves folds

Time stands still

You can never find the will

To do things as usual

As nothing seems worth while

Without the reassurances

Of things to be all right

A strange silence transcends

Engulfing all there is

The heart wishes to take flight

And be right by your side

Never to part ways

No matter what the world says

Just listen to your heart

And never let love depart

For without it

One ceases to exist

My Childhood friend

When our universe was really small

Friendship was all we cared for

Playful little entities

Blissfully unaware

Of worldly complexities

And lived in life's simplicities

Laughter and joy was every where

No costly toys did we possess

In fairly tales we would reside

The leisure days were filled with fun

Carefree we use to run

And play tirelessly in the blazing sun

You were always so precarious

With shoe laces never tied

Daring and bold in your stride

Your footsteps my guiding trail

I use to follow you in awe

Thinking you are so brave

You could slay fierce dragons

And fight in battles with chivalry

Admired you in every way

Then we parted and grew away

Got engrossed in life's daily rut

Use to wonder where you would be?

If you even remembered me?

One day I happened to find you

So elated at the thought

Impatiently I sought you out

You remembered me to my delight

How happy I was I cannot say

I can still en live that day

But I found to my dismay

Life has changed you in a strange way

You are not what you use to be

I searched for my childhood friend

In vain I could not see

That special bondage of sincerity

You had became a stranger to me

I wish I could seek out that child in you

The mischievously bold, adventurous you

Why have you become so docile?

Whatever happened to the wild streak in you?

Where is that boy I once knew

I hope that you can find him

Please do tell him that

I dearly miss my childhood friend
