Most vicious of all
Hair not so long
Rounded forehead
Eye rose so high, whence
Neck found always straight to
Loose object that come along.
Little lower he measured from
Common people-but indeed
Is wholly of egocentric else;
Idiosyncrasy has its way upon him.
Neither is he eloquent nor can
He be a sway, but of a cramped
Elegance would he be perceived
By an audience around.
Renegade is he by birth and
Repentance has no sway upon him.
Is he a permafrost whence nothing
Can mend his behaviour.
Belie by nature, beguile does he,
Behest has no affect,
For he deludes colleges,
Is indeed incompatible else where.
Authority do I wish
To mend him upon,
Else with a poison of tiny,
Mass being spoiled.
Left no choice than to chant
“create not a man with a heart of beast”

SMILE
A Light of your life
If you are stressed, you will get pimples,
If you cry, you will get wrinkles, so…
Why don’t you smile and get dimples
BECAUSE……………..
A smile is only a way
To make life happy and gay.
It’s constant for everyone
It enriches you and others by day.
A smile holds the mysteries of life
It dwells in your heart with the least effort.
But a very good exercise of your face.
A smile is way of expressing love.
A way of relaxing with internal joy.
A smile is free gift of god or nature.
Above all it builds a charming personality.
A smile is within us.
It does not cost anything,
But buys a lot.
It’s free to the beggars and to the kings.
That swings us through hope.
Always believe that;
Today is better than yesterday and
Tomorrow will be much better than today.
So before light goes away from our life,
Why don’t we smile and make everyone
Find that smile in life, so worthwhile and so rich.

Whispered
Love!
Forget his name with
so sweet face.
Forget his kiss with
his warm embrace.
I was such a gullible
thing to be lured so easily.
I thought he loved
me, he told me he cared.
No one could ever
trust him and give him a chance but innocent me, I let him take my hand.
He made my slow and
calm pacing heart dance.
My heart pulsated
with so much love and I didn’t know that all would go wrong.
My dreams were all
shattered.
How could someone do
this to me?
I didn’t know where I
was, not knowing what to do. I thought I had found my salvation in you.
You were my way out,
a place without pain but what did I gain?
Too much time between
and your change of heart pushed me away and ripped us apart.
I tried to stop my
tears from falling but the sadness was too strong and I couldn’t help it.
I know that no one
will care, nor will they see my tears.
They will only walk
over them, like people have done all my life.
You took me on a
magic carpet, rode high above the universe and whispered words of love, so
sweetly into my little ears as you hold me tight.
You promised me a
world of happiness filled with passion and endless love, a place where I can
find serenity, new found strength and inspiration.
You gave me the
encouragement that I need to spread my wings and fly away.
I smiled and my heart
overjoyed as I fell deeper in love with you.
Then in that same
second I felt you pushing me away from you.
I slipped and fell
off your icy sheet and found my heart broken beyond repair.
I went dumb watching
all my dreams floating on clouds of sorrow and despair.
My tears fell hard
against the ground as I closed my eyes and said a prayer hoping for an angel to
rescue me.
I watched your evil
smile disappear into the clouds leaving me lost as I crashed and burnt in the
pages of your cruel heart and broken promises.
I no longer knew what
I was.
I have disappeared
without a trace.
All I know now is my
name and my face and now I look back and wonder what happened to my life.

Friendship that turned to love
You and I were
friends.
We promised never to
end our friendship.
Together we soared
for our dreams, then conquered and won over our greatest fears. Through all these
years, our friendship never broke the tie and never surrendered to all the
uncertainties and difficulties.
A friendship that
never stops journeying; one that covers more behind the curtains of life's
challenge.
A friendship which
does not call for a break.
A friendship that
does not hide its shade.
A friendship that
bear fruit of godliness.
One that accepts
failures and learns to stand-to correct the mistakes and seeing more
opportunities in the panorama of life.
A friendship that
does not measure how far it travelled.
A friendship that cruises
and conquers the ocean of obstacles as different ways of malaise and
malediction.
A friendship that
never sinks but always swims to reach its success.
You know when it
happens; you know when it’s right.
Your breath stops in
an instant and your heart takes flight.
There is no
description, to tell how you feel.
The only thing that
you can think of is the fact that is real.
It makes you feel
like nothing else.
You no longer think
of only yourself.
It’s the one thing in
life you have been waiting for.
With the warmest
touch, you yearn for more
It’s something so
special! Something so grand.
Something that gives,
without the demand.
You wish upon the
stars at night.
For the feeling you
have to reach great heights.
When you give and
receive this special gift,
You will get down on
your knees,
Thanking the heaven
above, for you have discovered this thing called love.

Be my
forever lady
Hey! You beautiful damsel
Do let your life gallop astray
Come and live with me
And be my forever lady
And we will prove the world
That the love we bestow
Upon each other is unique
And more precious that diamonds
In the woods we will walk
Holding each other’s hands
And listen to the birds sing
And trees whisper, streams gurgle
There will I show you
Blooming orchids and thrusting ferns
Creeping ivies and clustering cherries too
Raspberries and strawberries for you
For your freshness and delight
Each morning to promise the day
Will you sight dewdrops fresh
And hear the soft murmur of doves
Beneath the magnificent tree
By the river side
With sparkling waterfall in distant view
Will we sit and count our dreams
When birds retreat in their nest
And when stars do twinkle
Will we stand with silent delight
And watch full moon glow
In the cosy kitchen, near the fireplace
We will savour steaming suja
And spend the time, the precious time
Asking, answering and listening
Hey! You beautiful damsel
Do not let your life gallop astray
Come and live with me
And be my forever lady

BEAUTY THAT NEVER FADES
Aback by the pristine
nature
Nature of one’s inner
sentiment
Base and strength of
the sea
To dig out and
seafarer sailor to be
Burning within self,
dim glow in the courtyard
Ah! Strange, the
unseen lass
Alone deep in
camellias through she pass
The calyx opened to
the unknown beauty
Why beauty with no
meaning?
Will it fade unseen
to its extremity?
Thou art beautiful in
thy way
It’s eternal when in
fraying attire
Did it give breath to
beauty?
And season of late
spring
To ascend in beauty
the early winter
Winter isn’t
beautiful with no whiteness
Whiteness on the
peaks dazzling bright
Spring in the
unopened buds
Summer seems when the
heavens opened
Where is autumn with
its beauty?
Beauty isn’t grabbed;
beauty isn’t beauty with no charms
Was there for beauty
by nature
Why gallop to the
fullest, old grandfather clock
Before the world
shown to unknown beauty
Inner beauty one and
outer beauty two
I am troubled and
present in thy beauty
Drowsed in several
beauties and reasons
For all and great
seasons
It’s time for me to
bid adieu
But far away and
always by you
To live life in this
world of love
This world of hatred
and mystery
Bards to scribble and
die in illusion
The freed world,
‘come on’ write
Convince of
immortality and fraternity
Could she dance with
the dancing leaves?
Whisper her secrets
to the whispering leaves?
And strand of her
glossy hair to dance
With that rhythmic
nightingale’s chant the hidden view in blur vision
She could cross the
stream, not river
Hold the hands tight
but not mine
Feel the warmth but
not love
May have inspiration
not the affection
Why these vary within
humans?
What is beauty of
beauty?
Snow comes, snow goes
But life lives
The late sum on its red horizon
Whiteness on the
peaks
The charms of the
immortal beauty
Can I ever afford to
forget?
Angelic smile across
her blushing cheeks
Can I ever live to
look and ignore?
Is this beauty by
birth or birth in beauty?
A long way to go and
lot to know
It’s all that beauty
and one’s own duty
Happiness knows no
bound though earth is small and round
It’s all that beauty
of great heroic deeds
Beauty that never
fades, that never fades

Sick Lily
O! Lily!
Thou art sick.
For those wily people,
Left thee unattended.
O! lovely lily!
I weep to see those,
Creepy crawly,
Along your green leaves.
Chomp! Chomp! Chomp!
Here they go.
Chomping all your leaves,
And leaving you bare.
O! Lily!
Once you were,
A beautiful,
Lovely flower.
Thou had a smell,
As sweet as honey,
Yellow bees came, buzzing at you,
Giving you sweet nectar.
Thou were a healthy flower.
Beautiful butterflies,
Came and sang,
To thee.
Little lady bug,
Always sleeps,
On your leaves,
Peacefully.
She loved you.
O! Lily!
Thou art sick,
No creatures want thee,
When you are in such,
Condition .
No buzzing yellow bees,
No singing butterflies,
No lady bug sleeping,
All have left you weeping.

A Dirge of life
I have been 24 years on this earth.
Of misery there’s been no death
From childhood I have not been
As others were, I have not seen
What others saw, I could not bring
My passions from a common spring
From the same source I have taken
My sorrow, I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone
All I do, I do alone. There is a down
From most stormy lines drawn,
From every depth of good and ill
The misery, which binds me still.
From the torrent or the fountain
From the perilous cliffs of mountain,
From the sun that round me rolled
In its autumn tint of gold.
From the lightning in the sky,
All more me to cry.
From the thunder and the storm ,
The cloud took the form,
It’s a hell in my view
As sorrow breeds success in few.

“Ode to My Teacher”
Oh! Teacher, you are my lord
For your wisdom and every word uttered
Crafted a refined character in me and in fellow humans
You are the architect of all human genius
Your wisdom transcends eternity, my teacher.
My teacher, it was you who taught
And showed me the real purpose of humanity
You’re the dispeller of ignorance
And truly the bearer of the immortal torch light
Like a hero, you taught and inspired us all.
My teacher, you warned the world of
Ordinariness, complacency and decadence
The three great evils embedded in human nature
Your words changed my downtrodden mindset
Into flames of spontaneous optimism
The divinities above praised
For blessing the earth with such a master.
My teacher, you epitomized the traits of selflessness
Its sheer disheartenment when some antagonist
Indoctrinate your noble ways of life
You’re the embodiment of the Lord of wisdom
A messiah, a bodhisattva and an agent of Lord.
Your lessons on subjects of literature
Drama, poetry, novel and more
Inspired the pupils to climb the ladder of accomplishment
You embody the perfect nature of mankind
It rimes when you are so novel and impeccable
Anthems and lyrical praises be there for you,
Dear teacher.
My teacher, you had entered the elite list of my life
You’re canonized, you surpass martyrdom
Even Julius Caesar will prostrate before you
For you’re a conqueror
Who won trillion battles against mediocrity
And against the three great evils.
Fate may drown me in Lethe
Or the great flood may sweep all the civilization
But my faith and devotion in you will remain unshaken
Adieu! To my teachers
With my heart filled with timeless gratitude.

What
makes Paro valley so beautiful and tranquil
What makes Paro valley
So beautiful and tranquil
The cooing of peaceful doves
The distant view of
Snow- crowned mountains
The fragrance of fresh rhododendron
Opening its dew laden petals
So silencely, so beautifully
The great promise of a glorious day
Cascading water over inspiring rocks
Gurgle of brooks from mountains high
And meander of a river through the valley
Where farmers live lively life.
The twitter of birds, buzz of bees,
Flutter of butterflies, creeping ivies too!
In the breathtaking woods
Makes the day of Paro valley
So beautiful and tranquil
The whistle of aroma-filled breeze
The dance of trees and swaying flowers
The crimson sight of evening sunset
And the silent roll of silver clouds
Makes the evening of Paro valley
So beautiful and tranquil
The song of cricket in the shady rock
The glow of moon, the roll of clouds
The flight of bats and moths
The distant bark of a deer
Makes the night of Paro valley
So beautiful and tranquil
The chant of mantras and prayers.
Flap of prayer flags and turn of prayers wheels
Inspiring ‘chortens’ and imposing ‘Dzong’
Red rice and
‘emadatshi’ ‘ara’and ‘suja’ too!
Archery and khuru, zhungdra and boedra
Schools galore and hospital too
Ocean of paddy and apples too!
Makes the people in Paro valley
Live with beauty and tranquility
Hopeful sowing in heavenly spring
Hard tending of fruits in summer
Clustering fruits in optimistic autumn
By celebrating summer’s hard work
Without forgetting springs sowing
Makes the wheel of time in Paro valley
Turn with beauty and tranquility without an end.
Just like the wheel of life and death.
Now you tell me what makes
Paro valley beckon with beauty and tranquility
In the midst of change kissing our feed?
