Poems by- Sandesh Ghimire
Peace and Harmony
See above the sky is the same
See below the ground is the same
Nothing is different in the air we take
Why we can’t live in peace
Why can’t we live in harmony?
The earth is the same
See around the crowed
into the mist of society
nothing is different
same blood and mind
why we can’t live in peace
why can’t we live in harmony?
The earth is the same
Why borders and boundaries
why bombs and armies
Everyone is related
All brothers and relatives
why we can’t live in peace
why can’t we live in harmony?
The earth is the same
so many leaders and dictators
gives us only sweet impressions
no one is different
all are under one lord
why we can’t live in peace
why can’t we live in harmony?
The earth is the same
Love
Love is a set of emotions
Behaviors and beliefs
With strong feelings
Affection and needs
Love is freedom
Love is a need
Love is an unimaginable reaction
Happen to each person who seeks
Love has a variety of feelings
Emotions and attitudes
Love is more than involving physically
An emotional attachment
You need to feel
Love is more of a feeling
Not an objective thing
Love is to feel
More than just liking
PAY FOR FREEDOM
There is a cost for everything
A price for walking in the streets
A charge for speaking free
Pay for freedom indeed
Look around and tell
A person who is not in debt
A cost for living in these closed gates
Pay for freedom indeed
There is a division in everything
You, me and all the earthly beings
A cost for being born on earth
Pay for freedom indeed
Emotions
We get lost in the enticing labyrinth
Made of our own words
Sometimes lured in there
By the words of others
Sometimes led in there
By our “rational” thoughts
Feelings and thoughts
Riding faster and quicker
Thus, tying my tongue in knots
Only making me stare
Up to the ceiling and vault
To find just the right expressions
Verbal barriers that are causing a shift
On all my rational thinking
A state of my mind
Ramped up in complexity
To the point of verbal clemency
Sensations and feelings we get
In the presence of one other
People we may have known
Throughout our world
Or those we may have just known
Wars
Wars have always been fought
since the advent of humans
it’s now not restricted to the fighting troops
It is now an instrument of destruction
wars are violent
full of the blood of innocent people
leaves behind griefs and tears
Full of scars and wrecks
war is a terrible, dreadful calamity
Wars exist, produces countless evils
It tends to be global to engulf
the entire world we know
We always dreamt of a millennium and utopia
where war will not exist
eternal peace will reign on planet
but these dreams cannot be fulfilled
War is an escape from the lethargy of peace.
