Prompts for the Promptless – Ep. 11 – Remake!

 Remake/ Change

If I have the power to remake

I’ll change everything which is fake

The attitude of people towards life

towards environment, poverty, religion

and their consumption of natures gift

without sharing equally,

which will lessen their strife.

Then I’ll remake the nature of law about death

Let death come with all its novelty

to carry on nature’s law

but

Let old age keep its

innocence, fearlessness, and cheer

like a child

it will make death less fearful and

make its impact mild.

Thinking Aloud

So you think you are a very wise woman

you let go  your children to  grow

you never interfered in their matters

you allowed them to fight their own battle

you made them tough and positive

you smile proudly on your achievements

But,

the moment you hear they are sick, suffering

all you want to do to is to hug them, cuddle them

wrap your arms around them

to hide them from all evils

you don’t want them to suffer

you want to be there always to protect them

knowing well

you will not be there forever to look after them

how love makes one weak

Or

it is your strength?          kids5

Keep high aspirations, moderate expectations, and small needs ~ William Howard Stein

Methinks,

There comes a stage or rather age in life
where aspiration, expectations, and needs
all merge into each other and you aspire,
expect and need  a world,
without hunger, poverty and sickness
a world
without boundaries, discrimination and terrorism
a world full of
love, compassion,  and friendship
a world where religion is compatibility and respect for each other
a religion which embraces every one with open heart.
Is it asking too much ?

Silence is golden- sometimes

Why it is that
foolish people are compared with donkeys
and not with
cow, zebra , giraffe or monkeys
me thinks,
the answer is simple
as you may say
both don’t know
when to keep mum and when to bray.
( No offense intended for donkeys, they are lovely and hard-working . They are just stubborn, single-minded and will go to extreme lengths to get what they want, especially when someone indicates “No, you can’t have this. “)

SOLITUDE

Standing all alone

a forlorn stump

bereaved of all the leaves

amidst thousands of people,

city , full of crows and ever fighting magpies,

birds, fellow trees,sparrows I miss

friends , near and dear ones gone

Solitude is a curse or a bliss.

‘Indira’
