Good night,
Sleep tight,
don't let the bugs bite, (till here its pretty much standard)
Cause if they do, they'll wake you up,
in the middle of the night,
Oh.. and if ,
the monsters,
under your bed give you a fright,
just switch on the light,
and everything will be alright,
And now i must stop this rhyme,
otherwise I might,
continue all night,
So one last time, I'll say good night!

A Short Story (self composed)
This one has been in waiting for long...so now sick of seeing it gathering dust i place in front of the public's eyes..
HE was but an ordinary guy, a bit of a nerd. Average in studies yet obsessed with books. All in all he had a busy week, and in his life there didn't seem to be place for much more. And after being stung once, girls in his life? no for sure.
SHE didn't look like anything special when she first walked into his life. At first glance just an ordinary face in an ordinary place . So just a glance and he was back to his books.
Yet had he looked closer he would have seen, mesmerising eyes of color deep brown, speaking volumes without uttering a sound. Gently curved lips like cupid's bow seeming ever ready, to bestow on her company a heart-stopping smile (the victims of which are piled miles high).
But so it remained week after week, oblivious of each other, till that day when fate sat them together.
Slowly out a of boredom a conversation they began. That night he felt something strange inside, like a dormant feeling now stepping back into his life.
So it began they sat together again and again, and slowly he noticed her mesmerizing eyes, her tantalizing voice and heart-stopping smile, without which it now seemed so hard to pass the time.
And then he realised what he had felt then, was love entering his life again.
Forgetting the past, he started, trying to woo a girl again.
But whether his efforts will bear fruit in time, will only be seen by whether she frowns in disapproval... or gives him that beautiful smile.

Today's world (my first ever poem)
Today's world is a precocious matter,
Wars and terror and nuclear disaster,
Are just a few threats to name,
That have joined this precious game.
Many lives are in peril now,
And not just in the big bad world as we say.
Even at home we aren't very safe,
Leave alone the pedestrians walkway.
Theft, disease and capital murder,
are becoming a part of everyday life.
And people, their senses dulled by repetition,
Move uncaring along their path.
But is this the way we want it to be?
Watching the world crumble underneath our feet?
Should we just watch and say "that's just too bad",
When someone falls into trouble?
I say no, not until we have tried,
At least once to make it right,
I may not have power to do much,
But still, what's the harm in trying?
I have but one wish as i bid thee farewell.
Read my words and remember them,
For if you heed and act upon them,
Your will itself can work wonders..
To change yourself..and society for a better future.

Power of a lie (self composed)
Honest people today,
Are like needles in the hay.
They are really tough to find,
Even though their neighbours,
They do outshine.
Many people claim to be honest,
But being such a person is,
Like trying to stay dry,
In a tropical rain forest.
The harder you try,
To keep yourself dry,
The more the temptation,
To let caution fly.
But beware my friend,
Of the power of a lie.
It can be harmless and safe,
And can save someones skin.
Or it can be vindictive and trouble,
To anyone around.
So if thinking of lying.
keep this in mind.
And beware lest you do someone a deed unkind.

Life isn't fair (self composed)
Many a times we feel life isn't fair,
If throws us like toys,
Here and there.
Some plans we make,
Due to weather,
Have to break.
But that's not all life's about.
Take a look around,
See people in joy,
Jump and shout.
While many times life may be unfair,
Think about the joy,
That awaits you in its lair.
Think about the poor children,
You see out there.
Sitting on the roadsides going nowhere.
They could be here,
And you out there,
Them doing whatever they want,
While you just sit and stare.
To them life,
Has been unfair.
Treating them like you treat,
Any dandruff in your hair.
Just because of an accident of birth,
They are treated,
As if they don't have,
Any human worth.
Think about this,
And ponder my point.
While life at times is horrid,
To you it has given special care.
If you don't believe this,
Then go out there,
Watch the poverty stricken people,
And remember it could have been you down there.

Love is like.. (self composed)
Love is like a cool summer breeze,
It rest and refreshes,
And gives us some peace.
Love is like a warm winter fire,
It warms and comforts,
And makes us feel good.
These are but some side-effects,
Of the feeling we call love.
It gives us a thrill in success,
Solace in solitude,
Comfort in sorrow,
And a magic touch,
To every endeavor.
All this and more,
Is what happens due to love,
And thus i shall make sure,
That for me, love shall last forever.

Me (a silly little poem, but still.. try it out)
Geek and nerd,
Stupidly absurd.
Bumbling and Fumbling,
And many a times tumbling.
Clumsy and lazy,
Dumb and Crazy,
All these are words,
That describe me!!
Love me or Hate me,
Hit me or Hug me,
Thrash or Bash me,
Sock me up or mock me,
That's what you'll always see in me,
Because that's the way i wanna be....

Our World (self composed)
This world fine,
Is filled with wonders divine.
The sweet chirping of birds,
The galloping of herds,
The rustling of the breeze,
And other sounds,
To put you at ease.
The sunrise pretty,
And sunset so fine,
Along with the white,
Clear moonshine.
The peacocks dancing,
And deers prancing,
All are part of,
This great gift of life.
But this gift is to be conserved,
To be enjoyed by everyone on earth.
Instead of abused,
And misused,
Because this gift is a fragile joy,
And too much rattling will break it like a toy.
So take this message,
And remember in your heart,
That to save our planet,
we must do our part.
Is filled with wonders divine.
The sweet chirping of birds,
The galloping of herds,
The rustling of the breeze,

Pray to God,
When things go wrong,
And hope the best comes through.
And when your prayer,
And your wishes aren't fulfilled,
You shout abuses at God,
Wondering why it,
Always does this to you.
Your plans being ruined,
Your day going bad,
And your life feels so sad
But do you ever stop and think,
That you as a human being,
Are but one in billions,
And as a specie as well,
We are but one to dwell,
In our universe,
Which has quadrillions,
Of worlds.
And out of them at least,
Has one billionth has life.
So in this Wide universe,
You aren't the only one,
To send for help,
When bad comes to worse.
So to expect,
Your wishes to come true,
Is only a small chance,
As God also caters,
To the others,
In the vast cosmic dance.
So before you pray,
Or Curse your God,
Think of the toughness of this job.
When things go wrong,
And hope the best comes through.
And when your prayer,
And your wishes aren't fulfilled,
You shout abuses at God,
Wondering why it,
Always does this to you.

And your life feels so sad
But do you ever stop and think,

In our universe,

Freedom from the Boards (for students whose secondary exams are just ending)
The Boards are over,
I'm Finally free.
To jump with joy,
And laugh with glee.
To play Soccer,
And watch movies,
To learn squash,
and play on the PC.
To hang out with friends,
And visit the malls.
So in these three months,
I'm going to have a ball!!!

If only you were mine (first song composed by me)
(start 1st stanza)
When the sun Is falling out of the sky,
And the Moon is rising in the deep dark night,
I lay down to think of my life,
And Wish that u were by my side.
When The Day starts afresh,
And i wake up to the mess,
That my daily life always is,
I think of youuuu to help me, survive the day...
(end 1st stanza)
And everytime i turn around,
I feel that you are near me.
And despite all that i have to do,
I wish that you would be mine......
I try to while away the time,
Thinking of all in my life,
And everytime i do so,
I think of what we could be...
If only you were mine...
(start 2nd stanza)
Whenever i'm feeling happy,
Tasting the joy of success,
The joy seems slightly bitter...,
Unless you are with me.....,
And if i'm down and sad,
And my day has gone bad,
I think of you..............,
And some sunshine comes through....
(end 2nd stanza)
And everytime i turn around,
I feel that you are near me.
And despite all that i go through,
I wish that you would be mine......
I try to while away the time,
Thinking of all in my life,
And everytime i do so,
I think of what we could be...
If only you were mine...
(3rd para/stanza)
I know we're still are...,
A bit far... away,
From each other,
But still i hope that, we will;
Always be together
And maybe this just a dream,
That may never come true,
But I'll always be there for you,
And always i will love you.....
(end 3rd para/stanza)
Cause everytime i turn around,
I feel that you are near me.
And despite me being far from you,
I wish that you would be mine......
I try to while away the time,
Thinking of all in my life,
And everytime i do so,
I think of what we could be...
If only you were mine...
And this is the one wish that i have...
That you will someday be mine....
That you-ou will be mine,
And these dreams would stop,
If only you were mine,

Speechless (self composed)
I see you in the distance,
A distance i'm trying to cross.
I hear your voice, your laughter;
And my heart begs for more.
I want you to know, how you make me feel;
I swore i'd tell you today..........
But when i see your face,
My resolve falls out of place,
As the sun shines off your hair,
I just keep staring standing there.
And there's so much i want to say,
But you leave me speechless.
As i see you standing there,
Time slows down to a halt,
And my only hope is that,
This lasts forever and more.

Why does this happen to me?
Whenever you're around i just can't speak.
Your presence itself, intoxicates me, refreshes me;
And this is what i want you to know.

And Ode (to the iPod) -self composed
You're like a drug i can't live without,
When you speak you drown out the crowd,
When i feel down you help me out,
You brighten up my life without a doubt,
And make my days fun throughout,
You, i just can' live without,
And so i say
...
...
...
Thank you iPod

Dream (self-composed)
When life gets you down,
And you feel that ll hope is gone,
When you've fallen in a pit,
And you just can't climb out,
And you think that nothing will ever help you out....
Don't be afraid to,
Dream,
Picture a better scene,
Where smiles are all you see,
Where the sky's are clear,
And you're surrounded by greenery.
And if you try hard enough,
While never ever giving up,
You can make you dream,
Become something real.
When you feel alone and lost,
And you're freezing in the frost,
When your hopes are blown away,
And you're being sucked down a drain,
And giving up seems to be the only escape.
Just try to dream,
Dream of a better scene,
Where warmth is all you feel,
And you're right where you want to be.
And if you try hard enough,
While never ever giving up,
You can make you dream,
Become something real.
But don't get lost in your dream,
No matter how much more pleasant than reality.
'cos just a dream alone is never enough,
Without the effort to live it up,
To change your reality....
So Dream,
Dream of a better scene,
Where you have all you need,
ANd your life's the way you want it to be....
Where you never ever feel alone,
The one you've been looking for so long,
Is by your side all along......
And if you try hard enough,
Without ever giving up,
You can make your dream,
Become something real.......
Just dream..
And you feel that ll hope is gone,
When you've fallen in a pit,
And you just can't climb out,
And you think that nothing will ever help you out....
Don't be afraid to,
Dream,
Picture a better scene,
Where smiles are all you see,
Where the sky's are clear,
And you're surrounded by greenery.
And if you try hard enough,
While never ever giving up,
You can make you dream,
Become something real.
When you feel alone and lost,
And you're freezing in the frost,
When your hopes are blown away,
And you're being sucked down a drain,
And giving up seems to be the only escape.
Just try to dream,
Dream of a better scene,
Where warmth is all you feel,
