PROFOUND JOY

                                    Profound Joy


              PROFOUND JOY 
In a lifetime you can be so thoughtless 
Laughter with fellows you keep sharing 
Jewelry and diamond you keep wearing
 In fancy mansions you keep living 
sumptuous food you keep savouring 
Luxurious cars you are always driving 
To the end of the world you are travelling
 Without thinking of others' sufferings 

Till the moment when you find it all meaningless 
When physical satisfaction becomes tasteless 
You end up asking what can make my happiness 
You bought yourself everything money can buy 
Bluffing your heart all along 
Thinking you can never be wrong 
Hopelessly looking for the profound joy 
That can last for a lifetime 
Seeking help from a source outside
 While profound joy is deep inside
 Use your heart to look around 
With your kindness sense your sou
l Put your charity at the disposal Use your talent to spread joy for all 
You will perceive the profound joy

SPIRITUAL STRENGTH


                                                        SPIRITUAL STRENGTH                                                         


When you're alone with no fellow around
 Looking for a partner to soothe the sorrow 
You keep suffering from when you're let down 
You can walk in the dark and talk to a star
 It will let the reassurance inside you grow 
By communicating its companionship with a glimpse 
Telling that you are a piece in a puzzle named universe 
Tied together with a spiritual strength
 When you're lost and thirsty in the hot dry desert
 You feel the fresh breeze whispering with insistence 
That many plants and flowers may grow in a desert 
Worshiping to help a bird feed and heat a nestling 
Sacrificing their lives to disown materialist strength 
And make the world believe in the spiritual strength 
That the Almighty created the creatures to compromise
 To bring together disoriented pieces in the puzzled universe.

GRATITUDE

 I have always been told 
That gratitude is an award
 You give to those who deserve
 Whenever you feel like to serve 
A human being with your care
 However,I have always felt 
That gratitude is an attitude 
Naturally payed towards the world 
Taught by Nature , written in its words
 Whenever a tree drops its leaves
 To feed the land that made her live 
Whenever the rain waters the seas, 
The mother breast feeds her child 
That grows and calls her Mom so aloud 
That she can hear from overseas . 
Whenever you feel something true
 Like Mother nature generosity 
Pay gratitude to the Almighty 
He for sure will , 
Make you sense more gratitude 
In a world you feel will never see 
What you are doing to care for
 Every weak creature in your need.

MAGNANIMITY

Generosity and tolerance become a mere fake
 If a man gives,forgives and expects to take 
If you forgive only those you cherish
 And give only things you don't need 
A superiority complex you only feed
 Meditate on the welfare and benevolence people seek
 Don't belittle what you can give 
Offer all your gifts and you will exist
 Your selfish ego try to flee 
Unchain your heart, set your soul free 
You will be able to reach your humanity 
Plant a tree which fruit you won't see 
Preach peace and love in a world suffering from scarcity
 In human rights and appreciation of diversity
 Spread your wings in magnanimity 
You will change a selfish mentality 
Be as magnanimous as a knight in a fairy-tale
 Add more colours to a world that looks pal
e A peacock is much nicer when it spreads its tail.
