Morning is the Best Time
Morning is the best time
The time is so youthful and prime
For its charm and splendopur
Time to walk and ponder
See the beauty of nature
Awakening hour for every creature
The air is so refreshing
It's morning, it's morning
See the charm of rising sun
Watching trees and flowers is fun
Beauty is to see, not to touch
There is many to see and to feel so much
The nature is in best symphony of rhyme
Morning is the best time
Walking on the dew cladded glass
Walking through fields and temple you pass
Farmers visiting their fields
Toiling from dawn to dusk to increase yields
The morning air is so heeling
The cold breeze is so thrilling
Enjoy morning, No matter what the season
Staying in bed and missing, is there any reason
Throughout the year get-up in the morning
Get refreshed and forego yawning
Make a habit of early rising before chime
Enjoy it, morning is the best time
Shashikant Nishant Sharma
{Written during my stay at home suburb at Sonepur, Saran, Bihar in the year 2010 during a morning hour walk through pagdandi (paths created due to walking on a particular bunds) through fields.}

Two Little Naughty Nephews
The relations so emotional are few
The poem dedicated to my nephew
Two little nephews
It's my personal views
Two little kids full of energy
They have a good synergy
Talented, they are, I would say
Always happy, merry making
Very close they stay
Like young calves of mother cow
Remembering the moments now
Computer games I never liked
With them I do play
I feel like child with child
They do sketching and painting
With colours, they keep on tainting
Every piece of paper and wall
Not every now and then, but I do call
Talk on phone, during chatting
Come soon, they keep on insisting
Eager to show their painting
Good children are result of good parenting
They want me to listen
Their rhymes learnt by rote
Uttering like trained parrot
Exiting moments await me
Full of happiness and glee
We eat together
We bathe together
Go for evening walk
For hours, we talk
On little things
Things that give pleasure
Things that we do at leisure
The moments spent with them
So memorable and cherishable
They may forget over time
But how could I, joys of prime
With me, the memories will linger
Like a treasure
Buried beneath the earth
Memories full of pleasure
And undiminishing mirth

Friendship: In Rhythm of Life
In rhythm of life
Full of many strife
We find ourselves out of tune
From momentary sorrow and pain
No man is immune
Friend is like umbrella in the rain
The music of nature is in best
In the company of friends when you rest
Enjoy the life like a little parody
Friends are here to provide melody
Hold true friend with both your hands
You will feel the bliss of nature in sea and sands
Don't let go as true friend
For relations may start and end
Remember my dear, O my dear
A true friend sees the first tear
Catches the second... and stops the third
Stands with you situation may be absurd
A deep friend is like colourful rainbow
When the perfect amount of happiness and tears r mixed
All differences big or small is then fixed
And results in a colorful bridge between two hearts
A new renovated and rejuvenated journey starts

Thesis Thesis and Thesis
Thesis thesis and thesis
Thinking about it
Whole day and night
Do that do this
The guide keeps on saying
Change the sheet
Tomorrow you meet
You need to improve a lot
A lot to do and what not
Thinking about the topic
Some get excited and some panic
The whole
A month gone
And nothing done
I do know this
Thesis, thesis and thesis
The drama started
'Thesis-Fever'
A few months ago
Remember remember
In the month of december
We were asked to submit
Three topics of our choice
The vacation started
A time to rejoice
Two weeks' time gone
And nothing done
Came the January
We were in hurry
Searching library
Reading books
Searching net
In night so late
To find something
That interest most
Got nothing but lost
In the maze of thought
What the hell
This semester brought
In few days
Penned something
So abstract and haze
Three topics of our choice
Listening to inner voice
Explored the interest
And topics matching best
On one sanitation
Another on participation
And the third one
Delhi's green belt
The search came to a halt
On few discussions
With faculty and friend
Started elaborations
On select topics
And finally dilemma came to an end
Got selected the topic
That came to mind second
The faculty do your best
And leave the rest
Time was for fun and frolic
Another week gone
And nothing much done
Next review came and gone
Discussing with guide and freind
Improved and improved
The layout and presentation
The data interpretation
Doing analysis
And testing hypothesis
Giving proposal at our disposal
Gone is the so colossal
Can't remember
How the semester came to an end
And now all happy friend
Time to rejoice and merry making
Time ahead is just rocking

Freedom Does Mean
Freedom doesn't mean
You are free to do anything
But it does mean
You can do anything
In your own fashion
Provided your action
Doesn't lead to reaction
Freedom doesn't give you right
Right to use you might
To do what you think is right
Freedom seeks from you
You to be just in your action
Unprejudiced in your view
Freedom gives opportunity
To capitalise your ability
Freedom does demand responsibility
From you
To take freedom in right sense
And don't do non-sense
And become a nuisance
To your society
To your community
To your country
Freedom does mean
You are not mean
It seeks from you
Respect others right
Without duty no right

Recipe for Friendship
Take a cup of love
A pinch of tolerance
Add some enjoyment
Pour a glass of affection
And stir the solution
With spoon of action
Cook on the oven of interaction
And after a time
And you will your recipe
Well cooked and ripe
On testing the taste
You will find the best
Best of the all
That is friendship

Way of Thinking...
We always see
See things
Through two lenses
Positive view
Or negative review
Falling leaves
Drying leaves
Flying leaves
All around us
In the season of autumn
A common view everywhere
Here and there
Falling leaves
Can be seen
Seen as the end of happiness
The death of liveliness
Or can be seen
As the dawn of new season
With good valid reason
Time to rejoice
Opportunity of choice
To fall and die
To fall and lie
On the ground
Remain composed
And get decomposed
To become
Manure for new sapling
New life in the spring
Shashikant Nishant Sharma

Falling Leaves...
Falling leaves
Drying of twigs
Turning green trees
Into standing still alone
Like dead hanging skeleton
Bed of dead leaves
Creating manure for supplant
For future plant
For the tender sampling
Waiting for rain
To set alive again
We can learn
Learn from them
Art of survival
The mode of revival
Shedding up off
Unnecessary burden
Making both ends meet
With little of resource
To join the marching fleet
Taking rest at source
To serve future
Follow the rule of nature
Learn from other's lives
Like falling leaves

Osho the Great Spiritual and Moral Leader of the World
Osho the Great
Osho the Great he is called
High esteem he does command
Among millions of followers
Among great gurus and philosophers
A man so brilliant and clever
The humanity has witnessed ever
One could hardly imagine
A man existed without vice and sin
With his philosophy of life
He erased enmity and strife
He relieved the mankind
From scores of sufferings
Lived life so simple
To set an example
For people to adopt and adapt
He was worldly wise and heavenly apt
Created a new culture, a way of life in the world
Synthesizing invaluable and infallible ideas new and old
Osho the Great he is called. . .
Brought out the gold out of the coal of ignorance
With knowledge and intelligence not by any chance
To tap the untapped potential of mind
Through his discourses and teachings
One among the many preachers
He presented his thinking with rationality
He is best of the teachers
Understands the mind’s criticality
Presented great thoughts in simple stories
People enjoyed listening to him forgetting worries
A man who moved humanity with his rationality
Crossing the geographic and thinking with rationality
A man who threatened a mighty nation
Not with force but due devotion
Shook the very base of governance and economics
His thoughts spread like epidemics
Transforming man from materialism to spirituality
Shedding the cladding of individuality
The oneness of thought and inherent emotion
Setting humanity in a new direction and motion
Greatest of the debater and thinker
He tried to transform and not tinker
The adulterated mentality of thinking about quantity
To thinking for reasons and the best of every quality
Spoke out what he thought being bold
Unfolding the mysteries of the world
Osho the Great he is called. . .
{Written in April, 2012 during my stay with Brajeshji, a stern follower of Osho and highly impressed by his due diligence to learn and adopt the teachings of Osho the Great. I have been privileged to have read and head his discourses}

Lively Logics of Life
Make peace with your past
That it doesn't spoil your present
What others think let them think
Pen your ideas on paper with ink
Let the knowledge in your heart sink
Everything has a strong link
Time heals almost everything
Forget sorrow start to sing
No one is the reason of your happiness
You yourself make it more or less
Don't compare your life with others
You have No idea what their Journeys
Remember it by dear brothers
Knowledge alone can quench your queries
Smile, you don't own all the problems in the World
Manifest your thoughts some new and some old
Life is not bed of roses
But a path strewn with thorns
Take laughter as regular doses
Life is transient enjoy like popcorns
