Whimsical

I would rather trust my intuition
And commit a folly
Then trust someone who has
not even given it a try 

I would rather be quirky and whimsical
Then live in studious discipline
For life is not just rocket science
And one does need a breather

Ally or Foe?

He wakes up in the morning
And trails me all day
As I walk outside
I see he is right behind

When night befalls
He disappears
This shadow of mine
Is he an Ally or Foe?

Peace

The ubiquitous lust for power
Constant strife and discord
War, discontent,  terror and arson
The constant rhetoric and finger pointing
Arms race and nuclear buildup
Bloodshed and broken rubble
Shuffle like images in a kaleidoscope

The fleeting dove has lost its way
In this illusory maze
Deluded in anger , lust and envy
Its vision is blurred
Seeking the rainbow -utopian and ephemeral
The naive man rushes outward
Hidden in his own bosom
Is the lasting peace he seeks
