Beggar and The Beauty

01Nov06

Poor Jamuna Das was a beggar
He begged and begged but never got bigger
His best friend was his aluminium plate
And they never let their job wait
Every morning both got together
And did what they had done forever
One day Jamuna was hungry
No one gave him anything that day
So, Jamuna was in dismay
But, as he passed by a big [...]

Where art thou, my friend?

24Aug06

When rain drops trickle down
Wetting my face.
It reminds me of an old friend
Who was there with me, always.
Eternity had blessed me
That I discovered him.
He was there with me, ever.

We spent time together,
Laughed and enjoyed life.
And prayed not to be separated,

But suddenly it came one day,
‘Separation’ [...]

The heavenly drops,
Remind me
Of the unbound joys of life
I don’t want the rain to stop
And I think of you

I [...]

Unknown , Am I?

17Aug06

I Am Unknown
I wonder if anybody knows me.
I hear the people talking.
I see the people whispering.
I want them to notice me.
I am unknown.
I pretend that I know them.
I feel lonely.
I touch their soul
I worry that I’ll always be alone.
I cry tears of sadness.
I am unknown.
I understand their thoughts.
I say, “Notice me!”.
I dream that someday I [...]
