Joy And Peace Are In Our Hands Only! Poem by Ramesh T A

Politics and religion are supposed to unite all for love, peace and progress;
When that too become useless to rely on, where can people go for relief?
Attachment to things and people drives one to misery and hell only sure;
Love and knowledge only make one feel free and show how to go ahead!

Nothing is permanent and reliable for one to adhere to but use all for good;
By promotion of mind, heart and spirit, one gets clarity to take steps forward;
Joy and peace are not to seek outside ever but only within one's self only;
By doing all wholly, fully and completely, peace and joy all can get in the world!

Relying on knowledge, vision and ambition only, one can go ahead to achieve all;
All dreams can be achieved by ideas based on experience and regular work;
That is the way live can be lived better and achieve fulfilment in world life;
By completing all works to perfection, one is free to get peace to see liberation!

In the swampy pond only beautiful lotus flower blooms with dew drops not sticking;
That is how life has to be lived to be free to enjoy bliss in Nature till ever!
