Go as a Seeker, not a Debater

-
Go as a seeker not as a debater  Unquenched remains my satiation though I seek a lot,  clenched with doubts of my existence, I feel like lying on piers hot,  wrenched mind boggles to and fro and gets exhausted like a sot, entrenched with curiosity to know answers, I often sleep not.   seeking answers I crossed many, asked many but remained unsated as usual,  keeping on the journey I asked many more but remained delusional.  Leaping questions in the brain make right and wrong to seem confusable,    weeping eyes find no solace in this world of answerers so illusional.  (Remained I restless for a night unending unending,  disdained with perspective, I called my conscience who spoke unbending.) Row yourself across the river of senses now not later,  tow your and others negatives aside and bring out positives to cater.  Low you may feel at your mere veracity so opposite, so much    to what expects the Omnipotent, Omniscient Creator,  Go, hold not, go seek your answers but remember - Go as a

Unending Strife!

-
  Sit I here enveloped in the darkness of turmoil,   hearing the heart breathing rue and clamour of eyes.  Hard I try yet endeavours smirk at my failing toil,  seems as if fortune and dejection have become allies.   Fondest memories offer bleak solace full with desolation,  bringing emptiness with teary commotion in the deathly silence.  Love dried well harbours neither feelings nor resolution,  dark of the spirit tries suffocating the sun-ray with its violence.    New sun brings a new day with scarce light,  also a nightingale crooning blue strains with flooded eyes.  Frown of despair pushes spring off sight,  bringing me close to hear repressively hushed cries.  As long as I sit here in a mood so pensive,  dejection shall prevail, spring shall remain apprehensive.  Composed by  sUGu

Do Something!

-
  Do Something!   Do something,  that tests you, challenges you,  immensely hard it may seem at start,  stop not there for you can surpass.  The power you have, the bottle you possess,  needs to be tried & tested without repress.  You may fall down, get depressed,  may feel inconsolable and bereft;  Get up; kneel not there, not at all,  if steps are unsteady, rest not but crawl,  you’ll reach there, definitely, certainly, for sure,  keep trying, keep walking, you’ll be there, you’ll be there for sure.  Do something, do something  that makes you, exhilarates you,  completes you, defines you.  Throw yourself risks, for it’s one life, only one life,  better to regret losing than repenting for lack of strife.  Your true self shall shine forth gradually,  you’ll find yourself, your purpose of life actually.  Others may choose an easy path for existence,  but you choose a path with most resistance.  Better one becomes with more strife,  dead one remains if chooses an easy life.  Contentm

Become You!

-
  Shed your doubts, shed your uncertainties,   shed every notion that confines you,  shed every belief that hinders you,  shed every idea that misguides you,  shed every thought that scares you,  shed every relation that binds you;  to become you, to be you, entirely you!  Shed your labels, shed your misconceptions,  shed every bitter relation that hurts you,  shed every activity that disheartens you,  shed every loud person that vexes you,  shed every duplicate that deceits you,  shed every force that enfeebles you;  to become you, to be you, in entirety!  Embrace yourself as you are in entirety,  for a copy leaves no lasting mark,  it rips you off your originality and spark, imitation becomes your limitation,  pleasing others, walking as per others,  leaves you with yourself in agitation.  Well, this is the day, this is the hour,  to embrace yourself the way you are, the way you are!  Composed by  Sukhpreet Singh

THE VOICE OF THE RAIN

THE VOICE OF THE RAIN Poem Word Meanings And who art thou? said I to the soft-falling shower, Which, strange to tell, gave me an answer, as here translated:   I am the Poem of Earth, said the voice of the rain, Eternal I rise impalpable out of the land and the bottomless sea, Upward to heaven, whence, vaguely form'd, altogether changed, and yet the same, I descend to lave the drouths, atomies, dust-layers of the globe, And all that in them without me were seeds only, latent, unborn; And forever, by day and night, I give back life to my own origin, and make pure and beautify it;   (For song, issuing from its birth-place, after fulfilment, wander-ing, Reck'd or unreck'd. duly with love returns.)     Thou – you Eternal – everlasting   Impalpable – unable to be felt by touching Bottomless – very deep Whence – from where Vaguely – unclearly Descend – move of fa
