Moon or Star

The Poem I wrote today.

Moon or Star

There was a Moon and a Star,
Nothing else,
When I looked up at the Sky.

Wonder blossomed in my heart,
Instantly,
At that marvel of an occurrence.

I started to ponder on its significance,
If any,
Whether God had intended a message for me.

"Aim for the Star", was the message,
Probably,
"Or settle for the Moon".

Dream

I wrote this poem, about two months back, explaining the reality of the situation at that time, coupled with some imagination.

Dream

I was on cloud nine,
Having been selected,

Agra it was, ITC.

I was hopeful and fine,

Games have started,

She arrived, I see.

She shook hands in line,

Heart rate elevated,

Then, I couldn't see.

I felt soaked in rain,

All neurons erected,

It was bliss, you see.

In the end, it was not my day,

But, yet, she made my day.

The Queen, A Walking Taj, A Distant Dream!

Thinking Makes It So

I wrote this poem few months back, but it fits the present situation perfectly, I think.

Thinking Makes it So

Why winning is sweet,
Losing is bitter,
Not the reverse?

Why eating is sweet,
Running is bitter,
Not the reverse?

Why fun is sweet,
Work is bitter,
Not the reverse?

Why slumber is sweet,
To wake is bitter,
Not the reverse?

In all reality, Nothing is Sweet,
Nothing is Bitter, Thinking Makes it So!
When Mind is set on a worthy goal,
Everything is Sweet, Nothing is Bitter!

Love Me So

I wrote this poem at the very end of July. I was slightly sick at that time, hence it inspired my creativity to draw this poem. It's more like a song, isn't it?

Love Me So

In sickness and health,
Will you be my side
And love me so?

In victory and defeat,
Will you be my side
And love me so?

Till death do us part,
Will you be my side
And love me so?

I know you will,
I know you love me so,
I love you the same
And keep you in my soul.

Deserve

I jotted down this short poem today morning.

Deserve

You cheer me up,

When I am down.

You help me up,

When I am down and dusted.

You stay with me,

When I am turning bad.

You ride with me,

When I am losing control.

You humble me,

When I am riding high.

What did I do,

To deserve You?

Angel

A few days back someone inspired my creativity to write this short poem.

Angel

Wherever I search my heart,
You are there, in my soul!

Whenever I close my eyes,
You are there, in my mind!

Whichever time I sleep,
You are there, in my dream!

How such beauty and innocence
Combined to form such an Angel?

Fleeting Moment

I was travelling on train, crossing a railway station, where I saw a girl standing on the platform. But before the completion of the view, another train crossed, on the next railway track, and spoiled my attempted gaze. The following poem is the expression of that event.

Fleeting Moment

It was but a fleeting moment,

If there ever was one,

Yet the moment was bliss,

If there ever such thing.

She was still,

I was moving,

My heart turned still,

Her image kept moving.

A moment of gaze,

Well, not even that,

Still, elevated the mind,

To write this piece.

The moment has passed,

Nothing to do about,

Almost everything is lost,

Except this memory alone.
