The Boat I Rowed In.

In a small island,

I am rowing in a boat.

The water is blue.

There are whales and sharks in the water,

But I am not scared.

There are big stone rocks in between the island shore and the water,

Yet I am rowing.

I am rowing my life’s boat,

And in it I am all alone.

But I don’t feel lonely.

For I know that my parents are with me,

The light is with me, the mountains are with me,

The water is with me,

Everyone whom I love and know are with me.

I will definitely reach the shore and at the end,

The victory shall be mine.

I am rowing in a boat,

God is rowing with me.

It’s his love and grace,

Which has made me able to complete the arduous task.

Adios!

The Red Rose Is As Beautiful As Your Countenance.

The red rose,

A beautiful and marvellous creation of God,

Is as beautiful as your countenance.

As you are divine,

So is your love.

Your countenance is graceful and simple.

It resembles the red rose,

Which though available everywhere,

It is the king of all flowers,

For it is plain, beautiful and unique.

Adios!

That Day When The Sun Rose.

That day when the sun rose,

I saw your face.

It was beautiful,

It was serene,

It was smiling,

And it was happy.

That day when the sun rose,

I prayed to Lord Sun,

He smiled,

He graced,

He danced.

Lord Sun was all beautiful,

 When he saw your face.

That day when the sun rose,

I saw your face…….

Adios!

He Would Flirt Everyday.

He would flirt everyday,

To Mrs.Baker, he would say-“Oh! For so many days, I wasn’t able to get such beautiful macaroni and soup, since you went on a vacation”.

Mrs.Baker-“Thank you Mr.Smith. You are simply trying to flatter me. I know that Mrs. Smith makes very nice, macaroni and cheese”.

Mr.Smith-“Yes, that she does but it is not as better as yours.”

Mrs. Baker-“Hmmm.”

He was in a habit of flirting with ladies.

But he loved his wife the most.Mrs.Smith was the diamond of his eyes. He couldn’t live any moment without her, but he couldn’t control himself from flirting with other women.

Again at a party, he told Mrs. Peter-“Madam, your chicken broth soup is brilliantly delicious. Hope that I can have soup made from your hands regularly.”

Mrs.Peter-“Mr.Smith do you know, that you are a forgetful liar?”

Mr.Smith-“Me a forgetful liar? Mrs. Peter, why do you say so?”

Mrs.Peter-“For, day before yesterday, when we were at your house, you told Mr.Peter and myself that no one makes chicken broth soup better than your wife.”

Mr.Smith blushed and smiled and said-“Yes, Mrs. Peter, that is very true.”

Hearing these words, all the guests present around who were listening to the conversation smiled, especially the ladies with whom Mr.Smith used to flirt always.

Mrs.Smith came around and her husband got up and very proudly said-“My dearest and darling wife”.

Adios!

The spirit, happiness and the height of the festivity of Ganesh Chartuthi can’t be described in words. It has to be, experienced, lived and felt to the inner most core of your heart.

While bringing Lord Ganapati(Ganesha) to the people’s homes or pandals, music bands which are hired by many play loud and beat music on their instruments and especially the drums make dancing notes and it becomes truly a joyful and happy occasion for all. People dance on the beats, many try innovate new dance moves. Whenever I hear such dance beats, my heart, my soul too dances with it.

The above statue of Lord Ganesha is established in Cham Sculpture museum, Vietnam.

The happiness of seeing Lord Ganesha is beyond anything. It’s natural to feel emotional. When anything asked for gets fulfilled, tears like tributaries of various rivers, flow from one’s eyes, in salutation and surrender to Lord Ganesha.

Happy Ganesh Chaturthi to all.

Adios!
