Colour Me Happy




Neither red or blue, nor a shade of hue
Colour me happy with shades very true

No lies no deceit, or tales climbing high
Enough to live and love & some friends passing by

While looking back in life, take this note my dear
Its impurity of matters that I always fear

Fades and lust, though are shiny to bear
But love trumps all, mighty as sterling clear

Winds would be strong and storms be in search

But calm is a place, in the autumns of silver birch

Whimsy!!


I want my happiness to relish
 In the limitless sky with spree
Enjoying all life of abundance
Without hates, regrets and self piety.

No broken heart aches or bitterness
No despair or hostility
What a world would it be for me?
Of contentment, joy n glee.

I hope for a painless day
With no grief of past misery
But that’s like a wish, very futile
Wanting ripest fruits from a rootless tree.

Colors of Time!!


Time changes time flies
Some obligations in the way,
Along with strong bonds and ties.

But sometimes it passed slowly
Things were stagnant and dull
Yet different with all glory.

Happy times came with breaks of gloom
But hope tied in faith
Kept the flowers to bloom.

I am thankful to both for keeping colours there
Life would been a monotony
Without each others share.

Life ~ A Potpourri




Life neither pauses, nor stops
Yet continues to amaze me.

Yesterday despondent, without hope
Now glad as light, it’s a potpourri.

Hidden like secrets in layers n folds
Manifested, revealed as epiphany.

Realization is a blessing, a gain for self
Privilege abandoned by so many.

Have the eye to view, ear to listen
Wisdom inherent, in universe abundant n free.

Token of Life (by Samima)



When life gives a token to retrospect
Smile for good & learn from bad days
Permeate through past, let never invade
It’s the memory lane not cliches.

Man is nature’s best marvel,
Unique in his own state
Deals with adventures in life
And survives its monotony, when overplayed.

Wisdom is to keep on running
No matter how long or what it takes
The destination is already set
But paramount is the joy one makes.

Don’t count others favors
Or say their grass is Green
Stems only bitterness
Water your turf, keep it clean.

Be grateful, never forgrant blessings
Explore creativity, will set you fly
Love the life and the people around
Feet on ground, yet gaze very high.

Your life is your gift from God,
The rest stays Inconsequential
 This recall will bring smile to your face
 Glee would be vast, bliss quintessential.

Living Well (by Samima)



You feel Riches and wealth felicity agents
 Not a recipe for better life spent

Flying around, exotic foods and flashy cars
May add little but won’t fill  those happiness jars

How to acquire Joy is a million dollar question
Some small tricks, a good mindset will freshen

 Simple food and meaningful work that matters
Want little, desire few, woes would shatter

Live in present, stop future worries
Be happy who you are, let regrets bury

Feel grateful to life for small pleasures
Berries, chocolates & tea, sometimes good book a treasure.

Drive should be Joy never fear
 Interesting and valuable things complete life sphere

Practicing compassion to others is rewarding
And to yourself, it’s eating well and exercising

Life isn’t all goals, productivity and numbers
Treat lifes a gift, it’s the poor outlook that encumbers

(A poem I wrote inspired by Leo Babauta's Article)
