Sweet Sixteen

  • Sweet Sixteen
    Everything is haze
    Life is a maze
    We are in a phase
    Marked by sweet dream
    Loving like ice-cream
    We are teens
    Some say often
    It’s effect of sweet sixteen
    Dreaming of girls
    Mind precious pearl
    Like an eager dove
    Looking for love
    Love is life’s emblem
    You, me, all shall claim
    She is mine
    Young, fresh and fine
    Intoxicating like wine
    Loving like poetry line
    At the age of sixteen
    Learn and experience friendship
    The finest of relationship
    Which divide adversity
    And multiply prosperity
    At the age of sixteen
    We explore what does love mean
    Love, love, everywhere love
    Love poured from above
    To bring hearts closer
    And to take pleasure
    Explore and enjoy
    The joys of sweet sixteen

In The Summer Sun…

We are burning in the summer sun
In water sports, we are having fun
In the summer vacation
We are in action
Playing many games
And learning many gems
Needed to decorate
This short life
With love and friendship
Courtesy and relationship
Life is a fun 
When with a friend
Life is a race and we run
When a foe is behind
Or fiends all around
Live life with happiness abound
This month is June
We are burning in the summer sun
In water sports, we are having fun

Sweet Smile…

  • Have a wonderful style
    Whenever you go for awhile
    Have a sweet smile
    On your lovely face
    Take it as an advice
    From your friend ‘Sahil’
    Living a happy life
    A task uphill
    We have to climb
    Your sweet smile
    Can turn a foe into friend
    Enmity will end
    Friendship will start
    Be wise and smart
    Keep rolling the ball of love
    Like a lovely dove
    With a sweet smile
    You can greet all
    And greet with smile without fall
    Young and old
    People of the world
    With this very smile
    In a short while
    You can change a man’s life
    Nullify strife
    Cover journey of mile
    With your sweet smile

O My Sweet Heart…

O my sweet heart
Come soon, don’t be late
You are my fate
You are my mate
You are my heartbeat
I can’t live without you
You are my life
Tell me my dear
Without any fear
When will you become my wife
Without you I am incomplete
Be my other part
And make me complete
Come soon, don’t be late
You are my heartbeat
Don’t stop it
Come near
End distance
Love me dear
Erase difference 
Shashikant Nishant Sharma

Sweet Heart…

  • O my sweet heart
    You are so sweet
    You are so cute
    You know the art
    To win the heart
    Who is the man
    Who can’t become your fan
    On seeing you
    On talking with you
    You have beauty
    You have charm
    On coming near you
    I feel warm
    Even in winter
    Warmth of your presence
    The love’s essence
    O my sweet heart
    You are sweeter than sugar 

    Shashikant Nishant Sharma

Butterfly…

  • O butterfly, butterfly
    Teach us to fly
    We want to reach the sky
    Touch the milky moon
    And play with stars
    O butterfly, butterfly
    Teach us how and why
    You are so beautiful
    We want to beautify
    Ourselves like you
    And attract attention of all
    O butterfly, butterfly
    Tell us the way
    In which we may
    Make ourselves colourful
    And we may be playful
    We want to be cheerful
    O butterfly, butterfly
    Tell us the secrets
    Of your beauty
    Unveil the mystery
    How do you fly
    We want to fly
    Like you beautiful butterfly
    O butterfly, butterfly

My Country…

Our country is a garden
And like lovely flowers
We are her children
We love each other
Like brother and sister
We have different name
But we are same
Like varied coloured flowers
We do add colours
To this lovely garden
Which we call India
The great glorious India

Nature’s Mood In The Wood…

While crossing a woods
I found countless birds
And innumerable animals
In merry mood
As they were celebrating festivals
With beautiful colours
And a variety of flowers
The birds sing song
And all plants thronged 
To enjoy the songs
And see the dance
By some chance
The leaves were clapping
To cheer up the birds
In the woods
I thought and thought
And almost pondered
On this Earth
Everything living
Or non-living
An inherent quality
To communicate to us
And a way to express
Their merry and mirth
Something you need
To see and heed
And that is nothing
But the heart of a man
And an eye of a poet to scan
With tender heart
Feel the unfelt
In poetry spelt 
Shashikant Nishant Sharma

See What Dad Is Mad …

  • One day my dad
    To me, said
    O my son
    See and scan
    To get worldly pleasure
    I am mad
    But it is very bad
    Even after gaining in great measure
    I am surely sad
    I have lost all pleasure
    When I was a child
    My son like you
    I was so mild
    But you can see now
    I have turned stern
    Always seeking to earn
    I learn and learn
    And trick one another
    But O my son
    See and scan
    I want to be better
    Wealthier and richer
    But after gaining wealth
    I have lost my health
    Health of character
    Wealth of moral
    That once protected like coral
    When I was a child
    I was very good
    Now I have grown old
    And become so bad
    I have lost the art
    How to laugh from the core of heart
    I have lost the treasure of laughter
    How can I be better
    O my son
    See and scan
    When I was a child
    I was pure like gold
    Simple and good
    Fearless and bold
    Life was full of simplicity
    But now I have turned old
    I feel as if I have sold
    Treasure of childhood
    And see what I’ve earned
    A life full of complexity
    No time to enjoy
    Like a little school boy
    Now life is full of formality
    But in reality
    There is nothing
    Like reading the eyes
    Feeling sympathy
    And seeing the core of heart
    O my son
    If you can
    Teach me if you can
    Teach me how to laugh
    And how to be in merry-mood
    I want to unlearn
    All the tricks and artificiality
    I want to be natural
    I want to be happy
    As I used to be in childhood
    Take me away from the woods
    Woods of the needs
    And unhealthy deeds
    O my son if you can
    See and scan
    Be a model man 

    Shashikant Nishant Sharma

Metro Girl…

Style of talking
And way of stalking
In the life style
And on the face smile
Well nicely dressed
And semi-naked
Modern metro girls
Facial expression inviting
Dress and style provocating
Girls in jeans and t-shirt
Want to have relation short-cut
One night stand
Can you understand? 
Friendship and no relationship
Relationship without feeling and emotion
Trend of the day
They do say
Shashikant Nishant Sharma ‘Sahil’
