In the land of Dreams

I am a Prince who never has to think.
Whatever I want comes within a blink.
I eat all I can and I am always full.
I have all the toys that are so beautiful.

While playing all day long if I feel hungry.
I can eat the chocolate leaves off a chocolate tree.
The sweet smelling flowers are made of candy.
And the white sugary rivers flow milk it seems.

I could have all these in my land of Dreams.

My big palace gives shelter from the sun.
And my clothes are made of silk, the best ever spun.
None sleep hungry in the kingdom that I rule.
When I am cold during winter, I wear clothes made of wool.

With snow I make ice-creams as winters are so cool.
And some trees bear fruits of toffee and cream roll.
The land of happiness and fun is the one that I own.
As you hear about this, I know your face beams.

But I truly have all this in my land of Dreams.

I don’t mind the scorching sun that burns my face.
This pavement turns into a palace when night wins the race.
Don’t mind the torn clothes, don’t mind the dirty hands.
Just as I go to sleep, my real kingdom stands.

I might be hungry here, but never in my land.
It’s playtime in the day and even in my dreams.
I am filled with joy and I make merry.
I am always happy however sad I may seem.

That’s how I am in my land of Dreams.

Children of the Dark

 Feeding the minds, The innocent minds, Their toxic thoughts To turn them dark. Their poison dipped words And venoms combine, Turn their minds Turn them dark. They are gibberish grandiose; Striking a pose, Spoken in a voice so very deep; Children of the dark fear and weep. Fear my Children, Fear the Dark Lords, They come dressed in light; The light's a cloak. Black is their colour, they are colouring your soul. Biting through your flesh, Turning you cold. Fear my Children, Fear the Dark Lords, They will feast on your flesh, And crush your soul.

The Moon

There’s a Moon above my head and it shines so bright. I stare in amazement and curiosity and delight. I have questions to ask; and I think I might. But when I try to ask, he bids me goodnight. There’s a Moon above my head and it shines so bright. I say, “Mr. Moon, being snooty is not right!” He smiles down at me, for he is polite. He says, “Dear girl, don’t judge me, alright! I have to fight the darkness to shine so bright.” “Oh Moon above my head! Can you sing me a song?” “Because, night is here and far away is the dawn.” So, Moon sings to me, the song of the Sun. The one who lives with desires, but none. There’s a Moon above my head and all his brightness fades. I ask him, “Why?” He says, “Dark shadows invade.” “Slowly each day, by piece I am torn. Only the Sun puts me together and I am reborn.” “Oh Moon above my head! Does the Sun possess all might?” “Dear little one”, he says, “He is the most generous and bright.” “He is a humble giv...

Ambition’s Long Race

To start with, career, ambition, job, promotion, salary hike and high position in any organization, are the requirements of life that take the priority seats and everything else has to travel third class. The competition, from scoring high marks in schools, colleges, to having a successful career, great paying job and high position in a company, is never ending. One never has enough of anything. We always want more. Sometimes want what others have. Sometimes want to build something of our own. And often end up dissatisfied with ourselves, our own hard work, and doubt our own potential. Who and what to blame? The world only recognizes the competitors and achievers. All the others can live in misery and without an identity. So, where is all this competition taking us? To best positions, to best jobs, to best pay scales or most desirable careers? Actually, mostly to a psychiatrist’s chamber or even hospitals. No, not joking or being a pessimist. It is so common these days that young p...
