A story of a little Fish

In a small fish tank ,lived a little fish,
It shared the dwelling with 9 others,

The little fish was unhappy,
and dreamt of swimming in the sea
spreading its fins wide and free

Others tried to comfort the little one,
Told him "this is your sea and this is your world"

But nothing could change the way the little fish felt,
stronger and stronger each day his desire grew to flee.

That day was one of those tank cleaning days,
A man as usual took all the fish out,
put them in a water filled pail,
drained the dirty tank water into another.

the little fish carefully noticed that the pails were close
decided to take the risk and try,
Took a deep breath , closed his eyes and
jumped a jump of his life

the desire stuck fish was lucky,
he fell into the dirty smelly pail of opportunity !
The man not noticing, threw the water in the drain
It was a long dirty way of uncertainty
But no obstacle could stop the fish ,Ulla ! he reached the sea
under the open sky ,no boundaries to limit and free

People I admire

I do not admire people for their success
I admire them for their guts to believe and follow their dreams

Know what you want!

The funniest part in life is that we always get what we want!
But the most difficult part is to clearly know what we want! !

Desire to Fly


I wanted to fly high,
Like a free bird in the open sky.
I nurtured my dreams day and night,
But got it snatched in a flash of a sight.
Like a child’s candy ripped off from her,
I cried cried my vision blur.
With a heavy heart helpless I feel,
Deep within there is a suppressed zeal.
In a cobweb, I got caught,
Struggling to free from the awful knot.
Months went by and years too,
My dreams still fresh yet to come true.
I am no more sad and no more cry,
Because I know I would reach the “sky” which is the ceiling high

Dear Son

Oh my innocent lovely little one,
I pray for your success under the sun.
Have peace in mind and fire in thought,
March ahead with a fearless heart. 
There will be times when you fail and fall , Be bold,as it tells you loud-success is near and tall
Yes! as all say, Life is nothing but a rat race,
where you compete with yourself and progress in your own pace.
Set your goals high and dream about achieving it,
Carefully take each step until the goal is hit.
The thirst for knowledge should never dry,
and as you learn more, you realize there still a lot to try.

A war against war

A war against war, is what I dream,
where the solders joyfully work in happy team.
They are powerful, fearless with determination.
to spread love and peace is their only mission.
They don’t carry bombs and guns,
all they have is love in tons.
They care for the people in need and pain,
For them all country, race and religion mean the same.
They teach children great morels and social grace,
Boost elder’s ego and bring smile on their face.
They erase the hatredness of people,
preaching them the power of love and peace, in gentle.
They plant trees and care for nature,
animals and birds feel the earth a safe shelter.
They are no super heroes nor are they gods,
they possess no magic wand or powers.
They are there in crores and millions,
peep within, they dwell in each one of us.
It’s high time we pat them into action,
to make the entire world into one great nation.
