The power of words cannot be over emphasized. The book is a collection of poems which are varied in themes and underscores the magic that words possess. Every poem is an outpour from the author’s heart and mind. It also has a small collection of poems that encompasses the fear and uncertainty of the Pandemic and spreads hope and positivity to those who are still reeling under its monstrous claws.

Songster

The free bird in the sky

Flying as she soars high

Chirps and whistles as she dives

Singing the song of freedom and life

Songs of love and esse emerge

From hearts that have goodness to purge

The melodies and harmony crescendo reach

Mellifluous enchanting symphonies beseech

Oh Songster! let your music cascade, pour and flow

Never pause! Let the Soul of vitality grow

Let there be a surge of beatitude and happiness

Let there be songs of ecstasy, rapture and pure bliss!

Speechless Speech

I‘m voiceless and tongue tied as I stand amazed

While I watch the motherly instincts of the animal race

Fondling, caressing, fiercely protecting as she goes

The mother embracing her young shielding from foes

I’m wonderstruck, dazed n astounded

Inarticulate mute and dumbfounded

When I see teardrops from the core of their eyes

Silent wordless, their heart for want of kindness cries

Mute dumb creatures have no means to convey

I'm left speechless at Nature’s queer ways

Today

Don’t put off until tomorrow

What you can do today

Life is short and you’ll never know

What comes your way!

Small joys make great happiness

Do not wait for pleasures vast

Live for the present, live life to its full

These moments are fleeting; they won’t last

Drench your nears and dears with love

Tomorrow is brittle as time drifts away

Say an apology and confess if you’ve wronged

Who knows whether it is you or him who stays!

Respect your parents and give them your time

Love them dearly while they live!

Who cares if you throw a funeral bash later?

And then fortunes to feed the lesser you give!

Time and tide wait for none

A stitch in time does save nine!

Do not procrastinate, postpone, delay

Live life king size and make your day shine.

The Sound of Silence

The commotion and clutter around

The blow bare and ring

The chime peal and clang

The blabber and tumult

Clatter clash and din

Words and words spoken

No meaning or sense exchanged

Voice in wilderness goes in oblivion

But when I sit in solitude

Silence pervasive in the air

I look inside and have a talk

A tete e tete with myself

Long lost in the rat race

I self-introspect and learn the art of relay

The sound of silence resounds and reverberates

Unbroken, eloquent like the flowing stream

Creating a connect profound and inviolable

Celestial and divine

to remain imprinted on the Soul forever
