Life's not easy...

LIFE`S NOT EASY
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA


Life is not easy to live,
Its easy to die,
But what we take,
Only good and bad wishes,
The dead gets two feet earth,
But living persons have no house,
There is battle everywhere,
Even within us

the 20th century.. most violent in human history..

20th Century
by Dr. Ram Sharma

I am thinking,
How this 20th century,
Will be presented,
In history after 100 years,
That this was the century,
Of brutal murders and massacres,
In this century,
The apostles of peace
Were silenced by bullets,
This was the century,
Two world wars were fought,
In this century,
Man progressed very much,
But towards his destruction. 

How to say "Peace" in 144 ways... global languages..

Butterflies..

Butterflies, BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA

Hover,
Amidst the flowers and in the garden,
To take the honey,
Our minds become butterflies,
To take us to daffodils,
And present us a bliss,
When on our couch we lie,
We dance with butterflies,
Not in the garden,
But amidst flowers of plastic,
Without fragrance

a Swaraj of poor people... providing basic necessities of life..

The Swaraj I dream is a Swaraj of poor people----Swaraj [self-government]can not be complete till the poorest have a guarantee of being provided with the basic necessities of life-----MAHATMA GANDHI

Go On...

GO ON
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
(shown here at Neelkanth Mahadev temple near Rishikesh, UK, India)

How many times I fell
I awoke more strengthened
How many times
...I was deceived by my own ones
I came more closer to ALMIGHTY
But still I go on
Going
Will go surely, definitely
Even if I am alone

Non-violence is impossible without humility...

If one has pride and egoism , he is not non-violent .Non-violence is impossible without humility.---MAHATMA GANDHI

Total non-violence...

Total non-violence consists in not hurting some other one`s intellect , speech or action by own thought , utterence or deeds and not to deprive some one of his life-----MAHATMA GANDHI

Peace.. like a mighty river flows....

Peace.. like a mighty river flows... through valleys.. between soaring mountain peaks...

O! Rose...


O! ROSE


by Dr. Ram Sharma, Meerut, India



O! rose,
you
left thorns
in my orchard,
I am bleeding,
my orchard has no fragrance,
still now,
many plants grew,
but weather is not favourable,
greenery is lost,
trees are cut,
belief no more,
system crushed,
orchard has become a desert

JAI HO !! Jan 26... Indian Republic Day...


Ahimsa..

"By Ahimsa Patanjali meant removal of the desire to kill. This world is inconveniently arranged for a literal practice of ahimsa.  Man may be compelled to exterminate harmful creatures.  He is not under a similar compulsion to feel anger or animosity.  All forms of life have an equal right to the air of maya. The saint who uncovers the secret of creation will be in harmony with Nature's counless bewildering expressions.  All men may understand this truth by overcoming the passion for destruction." -- Sri Yukteswarji,  from Paramahansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi.

Immobile...

IMMOBILE
by DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA


Again the bell rang,
Of mobile phone
All sensations

Are dying in palms
Mammonism
Sensations are flowing
Through s.m.s
The ringtone has become
Synonymous with life
Man has become Immobile
Through mobile

Today's Man..

TODAY`S MAN
BY RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA


Today`s man has stopped
To see the heights
Retreated to see hard work
Engulfed in laziness
To see the facilities
Accepted defeat from life
To see conflicts
Has left the Karma
To see the luxury
Has forgotten God
To see the money

Except Time..

EXCEPT TIME
Here he is
Only few steps far
I can see that
One step more
I can touch that
Here he is
My whole world
My loneliness
It is still going on
Nothing stops
Inside that
Except time

Martin Luther King, Jr.



MY TRIBUTE TO MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Rise so high as the sky,
Look at the world with an equal eye
Water the earth with the eye of equality
Stop the fire of fanaticism and casteism
We are desiring to make this earth a heaven
If this is heaven , we have to bring it on our earth

Global Warming...

GLOBAL WARNING
by Dr. Ram Sharma

The earth rose out of chaos,
the earth was alone,
God provided man the earth
both of them started living harmoniously
man loved nature
nature provided man everything
man won the world through science
reached the moon
forgot the earth
engulfed in new materialistic pleasures
forgot ozone layer
did the nuclear explosion
increased pollution
filled the earth with dust and smoke
forgot nature
global warming is increasing
the survival of man is decreasing
Fear----- Fear
Noise of machines
cries of broken stones
in between these, I am standing
helpless
alone
in a fix
I have to make both ends meet
I forget everything
I use an axe to cut trees
I am not able to hear its moan
desolate
smoke of gunpowder
mountains are disappearing
materialism is increasing
desires have no end
end--- end--- end

destruction

Bullock Cart..

BULLOCK CART
by Dr. Ram Sharma

A vehicle of sociality,
carrier of whole family
away from speed
carried by a bull 
dreams to fulfill
away from race
full of love and grace
between the huts
no if and buts
between the fields
high price to yield

Smoothing..

SMOOTHING
by Dr. Ram Sharma

Chilled blowing air,
trembling of people's leaves,
like the sweet voice of a flute,
the flowing of running water from a well,
or heart beat of an engine,
water-- water in the fields,
singing and bathing of children,
farmer`s concentrated will,
to grow the crop 

Progress of Man...

(poem by Dr. Ram Sharma)

Wells have dried up,
stories of grandmothers are dead,
everywhere is change,
pitchers and patience nowhere,
bottles of water are everywhere,
civilization is shivering,
relations are burdened,
love is tattered everywhere,
no one is safe anywhere,
man has become an animal ,
this is the progress of man..


A Tree...

A TREE
by Dr. Ram Sharma

Desolate
Alone
Discarded
Having all qualities
But engulfed in pessimism
Uncertain about his future
To be cut down at any time
None to save him
None to care
None to water
Facing all hurdles alone
Perhaps loneliness
Has become his fate
SAVE TREES

Peace Nowwww....

Give peace a chance...

Senseless violence in Arizona... now people are buying handguns like the one used in the shooting because they are worried they won't be able to get them because of government crackdowns... the same senseless violence that martyrd Martin Luther King, Jr, killed Mahatma Gandhi and took JFK from us...all we are saying is...GIVE PEACE A CHANCE ....

DROWN

DROWN
POEM BY DR. RAM SHARMA, INDIA
Man is drowning day by day,
he has no time to pause,
to think,
what is happening,
species are disappearing,
water level is receding,
pollution is increasing,
fruits are disappearing,
vices are appearing,
faces are being created day by day,
humanism is no where
