95.Narrow Escape

Peace terminated

Fear germinated.
Ruthless attackers,
Had all petrified.
Stupefied, life was fortified.
In terror pavilion
Pleas for mercy
Was lost in oblivion .
Terror monks showed no courtesy.
They had their hostages play host
To cross the town and police  post.
Out of town on deserted street,
Darkness enveloped.
Suddenly a new command....Run!!
Lifting hem they did as told
Fearing now to be shot dead.
Tears blinded their vision
Yet they ran as if on a mission.
Collapsing in familiar lanes
Only on sighting their loved ones .
Little had they known that morn
As they sat and wrote their college exam,
Destiny had formulated some other  plan.
Answer script still lay clutched in their fist
Playing sole witness to their ordeal.
Unprepared unaware the brave girls
Had faced life's toughest exam
With no scope for mistake.
Horror of that day they live each day
Feeling blessed for their narrow escape.

94.Corridors of life

Corridors  of life

Shows us the strife

Faced by unknown
Battling in pain ,

While we crib

Worrying about mundane.
The nauseating 
Cloak of hospital,

Syringe and antiseptic

Suffocates and stifles.

Yet brave hearts
Facing adversities

In wheel chair and ICU

Manage to smile

Knowing well

Life has bestowed

Upon them

Another spring.

93.Charmed by Spring

Joy doubles

As Spring  alights,

Blinding troubles

With great delight.

In its presence

Desires sprout,

Humming like bees

We buzz around ,

Hoping to gather

The essence of life.

Tender heart flutters

Like a  butterfly,

Trying to catch

The  splendor of life.

Renewed with energy  

Blessed we feel

Just like a bird

With new found wings.

The sensuous breeze

Caresses  our  face

Snug  we coil up

Charmed by Spring.

92.My Motherland

Supreme faith in our constitution

Has been revived once again.

Common man moves today

With head held high.

Law of Land

Spreads its light.

Punishing the guilty

Re-instilling our faith.

 Once again the world has witnessed

The fair trial of the most dreaded

Once again they have learnt

Not to test our Tolerance

Today or ever.

 We spare none

Be it a foreigner

Or an Indian.

To gallows

We put terrorist

Who live only to terrorize.

 Justice cannot be nipped.

We cannot compromise.

Largest democracy of the world

Shines bright

Imparting justice

To all alike.

Let us all rise

And unite

To appreciate the fair

Governance of our land.

 May The  Divine Light

Bless my motherland

INDIA.

91.My Prayer

Into the light of your vision
Awaken me each day.
Guide me on my difficult path
Let me never stray.
May light at the end of each dark tunnel
Bring confidence in my stride.
Bestow upon my dark thoughts
Your ever widening Spectrum of light.
Fill the void in my life
With  your love and compassion.
Lend your ears
To my prayer,
I humbly seek
Your Grace and benevolence.
Light my path
In troubles and good times.

90.Tender Feelings

Tender feelings unifies me
With You my love.
Your heart of gold
Makes me bold
I dare to behave like a kid
Overwhelmed by love.

Sharing ,loving caring
Is our daily bonding.
We are so different
Yet so alike
Perhaps that is what
Keeps us going strong.


Life can never have
A dull moment
With you around.
In You my sweetheart
My soul finds true mate
And each moment becomes precious.

89..बोल

बोल जौं रखबह ओल सन,
सभ किछु जेतह हेरा।
संग जे चलय छलाव,
दुखीभ' तोहर से जेतह बिला।                                                                
क्यौ ने हेतह तोरा संग,
तू सभ दिन रहि जेबह प्यासल,
तौं की तकै छह बाट ककरो।
बोल बनाबह अपन मिसरी सन,
भ' जा आबहुं तू बुधियार।
दुनिया छह आस लगौने,
तोरे पर छै ओकरा विस्वास।
