Black & White

The Pages of Books I read
The Keys of Piano I play
The Blocks on Chess Board I stare
The Red ink of teacher.

The gender play unfair
The races of different colors
The discrimination between colors
The unfair attitude toward folks by folks

You are same hearts
carrying same sentiments
identical tears colorless!

Same smiles pious
Same pace of heart beats
Same excitemement in happiness
Same upheavals

Then why this black & white
creates chaos?
This Black & White
not at all bright...

The colorless discrimination
will set all humans apart.
Let us hold hands & unite
for we have one mother earth,
And one hugging blue sky!

I flow, I go

The ‘brook’ called ‘life’

Is in a state of flux

Unceasing incessant...

With the ‘dirt’ called ‘clutter’

Which dwells in mind

All the time...

Some people come

Contribute to the filth

While some other revere...

Some came, bullied

Helped me turn stronger

Let me know my strength...

They moved on as I did

With lessons learned

Carved in stones...

Human has this habit of polluting

As they do rivulet

I sail in the ‘boat’ of ‘life’

I continue to Swim

with my Fins

passing the stage of fish out of water...

This stream is moving with me now

& so also the sky up high

Nobody else, just the three of us!

As parts of nature

We all came here as one

We shall have to mingle again...

Before that I would

Fulfill my functions

In this ‘world’ of ‘junctions’

With this rising sun

I aim to rise up &

Illuminate your lives with light.
