As I Am

A poem by Peter S. Quinn

As I am
I am your tender way
Someone to follow
Earth in its gray
Love song of the deep
As hours pass by
Hold on and keep
Knots to lose and try

You are for me
Night with its stars
Someone to follow
Winter’s top isobars
Can’t you hear me singing
Like a bird in a tree
To your heart bringing
Something of me

As I am
Without any taken
Winter ways hollow
Through the darks waken
No one but you
Understands this
From the dim dim blue
Outside in vast abyss
.

United

Unity In Diversity
.
By Rajaram Ramachandran

Tastes differ, Views differ,
Voices differ, Features differ,
Persons differ, Thumb prints differ,
Races differ, Castes differ,

Creeds differ, Customs differ,
Manners differ, Dresses differ.
Looks differ, Languages differ,
Songs differ, Speeches differ,

Trees differ, Plants differ,
Creepers differ, Creatures differ,
Birds differ, Animals differ,
Worms differ, Insects differ.

The food of one man
Is another man's poison
For a well known reason.

In the world of creations,
Sans matching relations,
Why numerous manifestations?

The patterns are symmetrical,
While the shapes are geometrical,
But why differences are astronomical?

How there's an unity
In such a diversity
Of forms live in conformity?

To these questions the answers,
The Almighty, God only knows.
What a wonder, are His plays.
