Todays's man... wants to run and win the race without a destination..

COMMON MAN
A POEM BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT, INDIA
Today`s man
has cut the aspirations
of common marginal man
he wants to grab
every penny in his pocket
he wants to run and win
the race without destination
he just show the dim ray
through the fog of suffering
he builds large dams
in the great river of pains
the common man
just remains a pole star
in the firmament of hopes and joys

Merry, merry, merry Christmas day....

Amidst the hue cry and chill
full of renovate energy and a life full of thrill
love , merry whole night and day
merry , merry , merry Christmas day.-------------------

One must not be proud of one's money...

One must not be proud of one`s money ---money will produce arrogance. Reality is that there are more rich persons than you in the world.Then there will be inferiority complex . Your life will be moving between superority complex and inferiority complex everyday.At dusk the glow worm comes out and think that it is spreading light in the world but this false pride goes away when stars arise.The false pride of stars is destroyed by moon . The moon is no longer seen when there is sun.------------TAKE NO PRIDE IN MONEY OR WEALTH OR POWER -------------------------------DR. RAM SHARMA

WHAT  HAVE YOU  DONE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT , INDIA
What have you  done
If you haven`t helped the helpless

If you haven`t lifted the fallen one

If you haven`t thrown the stone from the path
If you haven`t provided your seat to the old woman in the bus
If you haven`t done this
What else  have you done ?

One Truth...

ONE TRUTH
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT , INDIA
One truth
To make familiar of unfamiliar

To show friendship by faces
One question
To unmask the faces
One truth
To drink the poison of naked life

Verdad (Truth)
Una verdad
Para hacer familiar de desconocidos
Una obra
... Para mover el ciclo de cambio
Un esfuerzo
Para robar el brillo de una perla
Una ilusión
Para mostrar el resultado de la amistad por los rostros
Una de las preguntas
Para desenmascarar los corazones
Una verdad
Para beber el veneno de la vida desnuda

(translated by Alberto Testa)

We are flowers of diverse colours
In the orchard of ALMIGHTY

Spread love
Sing the life`s swan song with string of heart
