“Valley of Light (The Sonnet)
Behind every cloud,
There is a silver lining.
The cloud is in the mind,
So is the silver lining.
The brush is born of mind,
The paint as well is born of mind.
If the painting has no color,
That too is because of the mind.
When the mind is bright so is the sun,
When the heart is dark so is the sun.
When everything looks dull, just look inside,
You'll discover, all along you've been the sun.
Heart is the gateway to its own valley of light.
Heart is the pedestrian, heart is the might.”

“That's why I walk around in shabby clothes,
That's how I get to know about people's true nature.
Everybody likes to butter up those in suits,
Those who smile at the people with nothing,
are the ones with real substance of character.”

“Love who you like (The Sonnet)
Love who you like,
Wear what you like.
Have kids when you like,
Above all, live as you like.
Only thing that matters is that,
You don't fan the flames of hurt.
The only gospel of life is that,
There is no other gospel but love.
Obscene mind finds obscenity everywhere,
For the outside is but a reflection of the inside.
Less of the pomposity and more of the character,
That is how we shall harness our forces civilized.
I only know of one holiness, it's called kindness.
Without it, all scriptures are scum,
and all courts are incognizant.”

“Grief is like the ocean; it comes on waves ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All we can do is learn to swim.”
“Poetry is as necessary to comprehension as science. It is as impossible to live without reverence as it is without joy.”
