THE ANTS - LESSON

This morning after my walk,

I wanted to sit and mediate,

but these little ants caught my eye.

These little industrious creatures,

live a rough life, on a rough path,

thanks to a bit of bread crumb

that these two little ants were trying to carry.

when a third came and try to get in the middle.

He implied all his techniques

but could not lay his hand on the crumb;

he felt secluded - guess he was clone of the ant.

Heaven sent a light wind blew him away,

and the ants so tame

kept moving forward carrying their crumb.

It is crystal clear to me a lesson I learned,

just keep moving forward,

you will come across many obstructions,

but you can make it if you dare.

I SIT BY THE RIVER

The carnival has come to town,

and in a few hours,

the quiet of the town

will be full of song, dance

and merriment.

Crowds will throng the city

with visitors in thousands

from parts of the world.

Sitting by the river

enjoying the last few hours

of the serenity that fills the air.

The giant wheel, I see

tomorrow will have big and small

queuing to take a ride.,

screaming, yelling and shouting

will fill the air.

Tomorrow this place

will be disturbed and crowded

no way to enjoy the

serenity like today.

I sit by the river and enjoy

the breath taking view for today.

MOTHER THERESA

She is one of a kind,

so humble and so sweet

born an Alabnian,

and came to settle in India.

She is the super hero to

the poor,

the sick,

the downtrodden,

the abandoned,

the orphans.

She looked after them

cared for them as her own.

She never looked down at the lepers,

but cleaned and washed their wounds,

she healed them and loved them,

she did to them what Jesus Christ did.

She is the Mother of Poor

and now a living saint.

She is none other than our own

sweet Mother Theresa.

MATCH MADE IN

Match made in heaven

I wholly agree.

I came across many,

dated a few,

went out to picnics,

watched movies together

went out to parties,

danced with them,

and nothing clicked

with none of them.

But

my match is made is heaven.

Joe and I

are an ideal couple

sent by heaven

and taken back by heaven.
