Purity in Intention Matters

Purity in Intention Matters       

It was the Morning time I was busy working A call came The mood changed
	The mood changed The thoughts waved The negativity thrived The purity of  intent waved
The purity of intent waved The negativity thrived Took the hand towel And lo! A scorpion bit
	Lo ! a scorpion bit Realization dawned Negativity pricks Purity of intention matter
The work was  against me  The intent to pull me down I forgave, I  moved on Could see  the doer’s downfall
	Could see  the doer’s downfall Realization dawned Though it was not the intent I really saw it happen
Purity of intention matter Let it be on  your platter Is part of spiritual journey Beyond the earthly
	Purity in intention matter For the state of inner cleanliness It Make things ethical Makes things uplifting
Purity in intention matter Attachments to objects is ignorance Attachment to truth Delivers it.
	Purity in intention matter Stick to what you do Bother not the result Keep doing what you do
Purity in intention matter Not to find fault But to do What is right
	Purity in intention matter Connect to the voice within It disciplines all impurities Leads to path of pure deed
Purity in intention matter Let it not scatter Let’s hand something to others Let be on a silver platter

The Life of a Road

The Life of a Road    How black and bright Is the road when it’s new. This black will become light On it when feet and tyres grew How bright is the road when  it’s new!   Will it be the same sight When the first rain Showers from the height! Yes How bright is the road When it’s new!   What will be its plight When the sun shows its might Melt  the tar slight Making it hot for feet with no wear How bright is the road when  it’s new!   On it falls the lamplights When the streetlights too light The black beauty will glow How bright is the road when  it’s new!   Oh! what a delight To see the black in the headlight when it carries vehicles through How bright is the road when  it’s new!   Sometimes it becomes a spotlight When politicians socialite In all its view How bright is the road when  it’s new!   The black  becomes a different sight When cows rest overnight And sit through How bright is the road when  it’s new!   When black reflects the moonlight Oh! What a sight To walk away your blues How bright is the road when  it’s new!   There comes a blight With wear and tear When potholes chew How bright is the road when  it’s new!   When stone and sand are supplied When tar and gravel are applied  the black  is again new How bright is the road when  it’s new!

Do Everything with Awareness

                            Do Everything with Awareness

   

Awareness is a concern about and well-informed interest in a particular situation or development.Many times we do things with focus on end result rather than on the process.This poem isa an effort to emphasis the readers on doing whatever they do with 100 percent involvement

Whatever you do Do with awareness In all  its fairness For it works for your wellness
	Awareness is a perception Let’s do things with cent per cent connection Without any deflection To attain perfection
Awareness is a concern Let us not ignore For it may overturn And may lead to a slow burn
	Awareness is a knowledge For us to manage Without any leakage To avoid any wreckage
Awareness is an interest For the things entrust Where we stand a witness To mind our business
	Doing things with awareness Keeps you in the present The focus is on the process And not on the result
Doing things with awareness Will make you insightful It will give you direction To just do and be successful

Use words with Care

                  Use words with Care       

Words are full of power

They can empower

Words are Superpower

They can build great power

Words are full of power

They can be spiteful

Words can  make one feel shameful

They can be stressful

Words are full of  power

They can be painful

Words can be hurtful

If one is not careful

Words can bring Hope

Words can cause despair

Words can awake or shake

Words can make or break

Words can show mindfulness

They can make one delightful

Words can show thoughtfulness

They can make one blissful

Words can nail the heart

They can pull one apart

Using words is an art

Deserving alertness on one’s part

Words can pierce the Soul

Every word has a role

Which when told

Does have a hold

Words have life  in them

They can entice or capsize

Words can cause a strife

They can sometimes reconcile

Words have their own ways

They can be a complement

Words can spark an argument

They can also form crucial part of a document

Words have their own ways

They can spin a poem

 Words can make one feel dumb

They can bring about esteem

Words can create vibes

Positive or negative

When positive can work wonders

Why use the negative?

Words Once let out

Cannot be drawn in

Take some time to spare

Use words with care
