With her even in the stormy sea it is pleasant

As she stands in the sea, a delight to see

With her gorgeous features her looks inviting

I jump in to reach upto her enjoying her closeness,  

Her companionship taking her into my arms

Oh! With her even the stormy sea is pleasant

Sea is very symbolic of the rough and tough

Ups and downs of life, with right companion

Riding it all seems all too ease

With mounting desires, passions

To seek the peaks, ultimate heavens

Riding into her awesome havens

Life is to be spent in such ecstasy

In the face of even worst adversity

She is a strength, invigorating

The throbbing pulsations to a crescendo

Sea is pleasant, life is pleasant

With the pleasant she, an enjoyable boost

I carry on making it enjoyable for her too in great spirit

We swim, we ride, we rejoice in lasting moments great!

Thanks to her, all the love to her, joy to her in return

Magnificent obsessions

All through the life all have obsessions

Some are obsessed with love

Some obsessed with Science,

Some obsessed with nature,

Some obsessed with poetry

Some obsessed with betterment of the world, the people

A longing, dedication, liking, interest, aim, ambition

All are other way of being an obsession

All that depend on circumstances, need

Be a lover, be a scientist, be a nature lover

Be a poet, be an activist, be a social worker

Some may have many of these obsessions

Some may have all of these too

As for me I am obsessed with all, hahaha!

Obsessions are ok as long as not hurting anyone

Much needed to lend a purpose, a way to life

Be obsessed, be bold , be assertive

In declaring, following, implementing the obsessions

Yea! So many realised this before me im doing in my own way!
Without following anyone's foot steps, 
creating my own path to leave the trail of my own

When I see, it's my world, it's different!

When I see around, it’s my world

The same blue sky, the same mountains, same rivers,

Same waterfalls, same birds .... yet it’s different

As I see with scientific eye, poetic eye, eye for nature,

Eye for humanity all varied yet all rolled into one eye

My eye! All Integrated into my mind, soul

I see the mysteries of science,

Atoms, stars to universe

I see the poems in the milieu I see

the lines coming out from there

I see the enthralling nature

unfolding in a rainbow spectacle

I see the sufferings of humanity

the cries, tears and blood

All in my all rolled into one different eye

So the difference, seeing the best

Feeling the best, exploring the best, expressing the best

the same seeing the worst

That’s my world so different, so different, so different!

There is no constraint, constraint, constraint, I just fly in songs

There is no constraint, constraint, constraint!

I just fly in songs

No societal barriers

No national barriers
Yes, yes, yes i take to wings just fly

with gal of my choice in company

here come, take my hand we take to sky

go go flying over the mountains, over the rivers,

over the falls, over the meadows,

flying we look back at the world in bliss

wave back at the people in place

lalap  lalap lalap la

tinging tinging tinging ting!

go go flying into space, to the stars,

go go all over the universe

yes yes yes no constraint, constraint

i just fly in songs

all the world seems sweeter

all the hurdles seem lighter

fly, fly just fly forever and ever

Sun our own daytime star, our light!

Of all the myriad countless stars out there in space

Sun is our own star, our light!

All other stars come blooming in the night

The sparkling luminous ball shining by the ongoing fusion reaction

Without it we are nowhere, in pitch dark

We owe it to the grand sun making the Earth livable, we live

Without it no existence, everything out on this fantastic world

Without it no photosynthesis, no plant,.no food

Besides you, me, all earthlings, flora and fauna

All owe our existence to the dazzling sun

A star not livable, yet lovable!

Like all good things have to come to an end

Sun too has to end when fusion fuel runs out

Thank God not anytime sooner much after our lifetime

Life times of the gen next, gen next and next

Till another few billion years to go for the halt

Still shudder to think of such eventuality

Sun exhausting, ballooning into a red giant

Engulfing our blue marble, a gory sight

A death knell for the life flourishing hereabout

Long, long time to go, till then enjoy the ride best!

Roses for the rose, thousand, million, billion....

Among all the women that are roses

Bloomed all over the world’s garden

She stands tall, a majestic rose, royal rose

So captivating, alluring, breathtaking

Roses for the rose, thousand, million, billion ...

A special place for her in the world’s garden

In my coveted heart of Eden

That I wish to adorn her in roses, roses, roses galore

Wearing roses all over her silky nakedness

Myriads of roses strewn all over the path to walk on

all the choicest roses as her bed to sleep in

Wishing to steal a place for myself in the rose’s heart

In the folds of petals enjoying her fragrance

Colourfulness, radiant and blissful ambience

Holding the silky her in embrace, kissing stupor

Thousand, million, billion times and more

Ever since the day of blooming, capturing my heart

She remains fresh, colourful and fragrant

That I bow with roses, adorn her with roses,

Strewn the path and bed with roses

My rose, rose of roses, regaling muse of muses forever!
