Happiness - Poem by me

Happiness Choose to be glad or choose to be sad It's nowhere else, it's all in your head. When one knows that worrying doesn't take one anywhere, One might as well be happy from somewhere; Count your blessings even when there seem to be none; Hum a tune even if there is no song Sing a song to the humming bird, Take a swim with the Dipper bird. Laugh out loud even if there ain't no joke, I'd rather be odd than be broke. Look at the sky, ain't she lovely? Look at the mirror,  so is she 😍 Find reasons to smile, even if there are not any; Celebrate life even if you don't know why Or do you still think you'd rather cry?

Hope - Poem by me

Hope River Saraswati or so they call me I think I begin from the mountains: Running Through the ups and downs of the land I wish to one day reach the sea The distance is far, the path runs ruthlessly Children play on my banks joyously People quench their thirst and bathe on me Oh, they've made me way too slimy I go on a rollercoaster ride;  a rise and then I steeply fall; as Little streams join me on the way - for we all Wish to one day reach the sea The more the creeks that merge with me, The more powerful I become We all dream a singular dream That we may one day reach the sea.

We suddenly hear a savage noise From someone more ferocious than us We begin to celebrate for n...

Book - Poem by me

A book was lying all by herself, the title so inviting; The cover so flashy and bright, and as gay as the morning sunlight Is she a story of love and happiness? or does she embody suffering and pain? I believe a book is a girl's best friend. Now, I  know why both of us are alone and abandoned. We were meant for one another,  but then who in the world are you? Are you of this planet or another?    With a galaxy and a meteor or two? Do you relate to hunger and suffering?   Or have stories of abundance and wasting? What treasures do you hide within you? Is the knowledge contemporary or ancient? Of green pastures and velvet grass. Or platinum, gold, Silver and brass?  I cannot wait to lay my hands On this bundle of beauty lying by herself You are my soulmate and there is no other, Who will stay beside me through any weather.
