I Swing On The Rope Of Faith ..

Life is a long tight rope

I swing in hope dawn to dusk

Against all odds I face

My hope never ceases

I cling on to the rope of hope

I swing sky high

and back with zest

My rope of hope

Is stronger now

I never let it leave me

And no one can

Snatch away my hope for sure

as my rope of faith

gets stronger day by day

when I see troubled times

staring at me with cruel eyes!

Sometimes my rope of faith

gets weaker

and I sit quietly on my windowsill

looking at the blue… blue sky

and here I draw hope again

from the blue sky and sparkling stars

which is God's beautiful creation!

My faith gets stronger n stronger

looking at the beauty of nature

and all His creations!

So why worry I ask myself

When the rope of faith

makes you stronger!

Tough Sail ..

We are all sailing in the same boat

Topsy turvy with tidal waves

hitting high and low

Any time our boat may sink

Oh! we can’t hold on to each other

Distance has to be kept for sure

Let our hearts be as close as we

can keep, which will save our lives

for sure!

It’s cold and windy in the boat

We are sneezing

Covering our face

But hearts open with love

Let the sail be safe and sure

To win our race together

In this pandemic fear!

Love Amidst Coronavirus Pandemic ..

Amidst the panic and chaos

of coronavirus all over the world

she stood looking at him

with heartful of love and care

But she has not met him

nor spoken to him!

Her heart is full of him

and his charisma

and his total faith on his creator

whom he always praises in his divine heart!

She holds on to this

unknown man with full of faith

She sits and sings holy hymns

looking into the vast blue sky

and moving clouds

playing with the lush green grass

and catching dragonflies and let them off!

She is sometimes childish and

sometimes a girl in love

Her imagination flies and flies

and she lands up in his cosy lap

looking into his caring eyes!

She smiles to herself

Yes, I know he loves me

But she has not met him

Nor talked to him

Her imagination

takes both of them

to the highest level of

divine love ever experienced

where they mingle in each other

A soul to soul love

A heart to heart feeling

till the end of their lives!

She smiles

She hums

Who is this person

I am in love with

But she knows he is

Somewhere far away

Writing love letters

to his love whom he is fond of

and she holds back her tears

in frustration!

Who is he

She doesn't know

She only knows

She loves him sincerely

and she sees him everywhere

and hears his voice

even while asleep

with no more corona fear

the spiritual romance

taking them to the highest level!
