Universe

With planets and stars far apart,
Of which our Earth is only a tiny part.
With meteors and comets whizzing by:
In the vast limitless sky.

Little do we know about it,
Whatever we know is only a bit;
As the final frontier it is known,
A way for adventure it has shown.

But what it holds is far more than an adventure;
To which perhaps no one can venture.
How I wish I knew all about it,
Instead of knowing just a bit.

Flower

Roses and daffodils are all flowers;
Blooming besides gloomy houses and majestic towers.
It is one of nature's greatest creation,
It looks as if it has been created with devotion.

Filled with beauty one cannot imagine:
It is the most beautiful thing that can be seen.
It is found in colors of every hue;
Its beauty can be compared only with a few.

It gives a fragrance; so divinely sweet;
That the bad thoughts have to retreat.
It reminds us of natures power
It is the enchanting flower.

Rain

It falls like little grains of sand,
On the vast water thirsty lands.
To the trees and plans,
Their life it grants.

Every being awaits its arrival,
Because for them, it means survival.
For a farmer,his crops are is life
Which he grows amidst difficulties and strife

His life depends on his crops,
And the life of the crops are the little rain drops
Sometimes with it come disasters like flood
Killing people in cold blood.

It leaves a place fresh and clean;
Making the trees lush green.
Without it, everyone would die,
And there would be nothing but hue and cry.
