From farm to house, from grain to grain,
That grow with same love, and make the world stronger.
All I wonder – what would happen if they were no longer near?
From basic to every need, from raw to finish,
They are the one who makes it possible.
The villages where farmers, even women and men, work
All night with all their might.
From farm to future, from oblivious to respect,
This all makes them shine even brighter.
They all seem weaker, but still are the one who make the world stronger.
Strange, isn’t it?
That all they do is for their need, but they are the one who feed.
Every village shines brighter, even if they are not under a sky which is brighter.
The potential they carry seems to be taken for nothing,
Yet we forget – they are the one who makes us everything.

INSIDE BRAIN
They disturb me
When we argue
With each other
But it’s my true nature
That I usually get hurt
By the unusual arguments
And much unexpected
Behaviour of the people
And what remains
Inside the brain
Are the unexpected echoes of the conversation
That unnecessarily disturb me
When I am in state of sleep or silence
Many times I questioned myself
What do I get from gathering pebbles and stones?
But I don’t get the answer
Now I know that
This never ending process
Can’t be stopped
And now I have started ignoring it
Just for happy and peaceful living.

The Fault in our stars
I wished I could be born once again
Under a serendipitous zodiac name
I wished i could be really happier
And could have got name and fame.
Is the fault in us or in the stars
Some born as king, others searching a spar
Am I different because of my Zodiac sign?
Is it actually the ‘configuration of my birth stars?
Stars creates destiny,it might be true
I believed it,but here my opinion skews
Those who are favourites of that Almighty
Are only given ups and downs to be gone through.
For these vicissitudes bring us close to that power
And we remember Him to get some divine showers
So never blame your failures to your planets
As we will be indestructible due to these unfavourable stars.
