From Farm to Future

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.
