As I lit
The candle to
Lord Jesus Christ
He looked down
Upon me
With his eyes of love
Do not
Fret my child
For bygone things
Your battle is over
Your race is won
You are with me now
You are at peace.

Purity!
She said,
You know,
I know about,
Challenges and
Tests!
That
Everyone has to
Go through.
In order to,
Find
What Each
Has to do!
Why?
Were they
Were so selfish!
Not to
understand!
That
Each of us
Are born to
Some Purpose
In life!
Is it
Lack of
Guidance or
Common sense?
– Deepa Nilamani –
As You Sleep!
As you sleep
In quiet slumber
May you receive
the,
Blessings sent your way!
Lulling your mind
Into a peaceful rest,
and
Filing it with,
Beautiful dreams!
To,
Awaken you
Refreshed.
for,
New aspirations.
To a
New day,
A new beginning.
With new hopes
and,
Full of Joy!

You Are Enough!
My child,
You are enough
Don’t you Know?
So many care
But,
You are unaware!
Life is such
We need to
Work hard!
You are born
With a gift,
To colour
This world,
To bring,
Joy Happiness,
Prosperity,
Good Health,
And
Peace
To
This world!

When All Doors Close!
When all doors close,
What can you see ?
Another door open,
Where can it be ?
Sometimes doors open,
That you cannot see !
Because,
You are meant to find them,
In time,
You will see !

A Silent Prayer!
She sat in silence,
Praying into the night.
To each and
Everyone around.
Family and friends.
Strangers alike.
She wished them well,
With all her might.
Her voice,
Reached up.
To the,
Heavens above.
Where,
Almighty God
Looked
Down upon her.
He heard
He answered
Back to her.
And,
That is all
She ever wanted!
As
He answered back
And
Came back To her!

Wonders of Nature!
Sometimes I just,
Sit by myself.
Not doing anything but,
Just spending my time.
Gazing up at,
The sky and the clouds.
The birds flying by,
Even aeroplanes !
In the night,
The dark blue sky,
The bright yellow moon,
And the shinning stars !
The beauty of nature.
For us to,
Enjoy.
Bring peace,
To the mind,
And,
Joy to the heart.
Do you know,
How fortunate we are?
As all these
Wonders are,
Blessings from above!
For us to enjoy,
To be happy
In our lives.
To bring peace,
And
Joy to the world!

Thoughts!
Endless thoughts
In my mind
Running fast
Like a fast
Moving train!
The past
Sweeps away
And the
Future is born.
I want to
Move on
Just like,
The train.
As time too,
Is running,
Like the train.
Some of the
Minds are
Not alert.
Not aware,
Of another’s thoughts!
Each one
Runs their own race.
Some are fast
And
Some are slow!
We each
Are born free souls
To run our race
In our own times.
Why do they not
Understand this?
