COLOURS OF LIFE (From a childs perspective)

COLOURS OF LIFE (From a childs perspective)

The divine blue pair
I always long to stare
The sea and the sky
I do not know why

Every morning I meet
A yellow flower sweet
The suns yellow ray
infuses life in my day

The rich red blood flow
keeps lifes lamp a glow
Red rose marks young loves union
vermelion enhances beauty of maiden

Lonely mountains covered with snow
White like milk that helps us grow
clean and pure like childrens soul
divine truths on ancient white scrolls

The greenery of the trees
gently cleanses the breeze
Provide us with food and shade
natures assets precious as jade

gray clouds bless us with showers
gray steel builds tall towers
twilight washes the world with gray
beginning or end of another day

Black is like the dark of night
All encompassing absence of light
black shoes,tyres and road that link
thoughts penned down with black ink

Water is colourless like glass
both bend light thats let pass
One white is divided in seven
like several paths to same heaven

At the end of the rainbow, lo! behold
There lies a treasure - pot of gold
Kings crown, jewellery of all kinds
This noble metal also incites evil minds

Colours mix and colour blends
True colours find true friends
The colour that makes us whole
is thecolour of the mind and soul

Immortal - A tribute to the Martyr (Haiku - 5-7-5)

Immortal - A tribute to the Martyr (Haiku - 5-7-5) Fighting till the end Chose our country over life Eternal hero! © Mandar Jayant Kokatay It is since 1971 that a flame which is often known as Amar Jawan Jyoti (or the flame of the immortal soldier) is continuously burning under the shrine of India Gate at New Delhi, the capital of India.  It is a structure consisting of black marble plinth, with reversed rifle, capped by war helmet, bound by four urns, each with the permanent flame. It serves as India’s Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Amar Jawan Jyoti is manned round the clock by soldiers drawn from the three services of the Indian armed forces. Wreaths are placed at the Amar Jawan Jyoti on Vijay Diwas, and on 26 January, by the Prime Minister of India, Chiefs of Armed Forces, and other dignitaries. More recently, an online portal has been launched by our veterans to honour the Martyrs. You can visit it at :-   https://honourpoint.faujipoint.com

Nirvana - Self enlightenment (Haiku-5-7-5)

Nirvana - Self enlightenment (Haiku-5-7-5)  No craving to speak Neither desire to listen Cherish this silence © Mandar Jayant Kokatay Note : The word 'Nirvana' has many meanings in different languages and cultures. In the Buddhist context nirvana refers to the imperturbable stillness of mind after the fires of desire, aversion, and delusion have been finally extinguished. [ 2] In Hindu philosophy, it is the union with the divine ground of existence Brahman (Supreme Being) and the experience of blissful egolessness. Gautam Buddha attained 'Nirvana' while sitting under a Bodhi tree in Gaya, Bihar, India. Nirvana in Sanskrit literally means "blown out", as in a candle. Nirvana is a place of perfect peace and happiness, like heaven. In Hinduism and Buddhism, nirvana is the highest state that someone can attain, a state of enlightenment, meaning a person's individual desires and suffering go away.
