Where have all the flowers gone

where have all the flowers gone

to adorn the graves of warriors gone

where have all the flowers gone

To the lonely  to be along

where have all the flowers gone

in heaven forever young never torn

Where have all the flowers gone

to the polluted land of ours to mourn

where have all the flowers gone

To give to a girl a smile to be born

where have all the flowers gone

To be ever a fragrance lingering along

Where have all the flowers gone

To bring peace to lives in war torn

Where have all the flowers gone

To say a prayer for a joyous morn

Pavin
Inspired by a song from Peter Seeger
Life a coins toss
In seconds lifes loss
Oh what doth it cause
Life brought to a pause
Answers where to seek
For lo we humans meek
In seconds heart beats end
A message Tis life doth send

Pavin
Sometimes when we are at a wrong time at a wrong place
Just Peace


To defend, ye called
Thy dreams stalled

Tis world's new order
Slaved citizens in their own border

Machinery of war watched with awe
Enticing the brave to grave

Cost of war doth the hungry feed
It just waters enmitys seed

Peace on earth people at peace
May all wars in tis world cease

Pavin
Silence

Silence a slice of life
A calm before storm

Silence a heart in strife
A gentle healing balm

Silence a slicing knife
Just a painful calm

Pavin
I lingered longer than I had intended
Observing the painting, mesmerised
Trying to understand, what the artist intended to convey in colours abstract
Each a piece, a part of the artist’s heart
Not that I understood, but it was touching, I tried to grasp
The colours blended, swirled
The brushstrokes long and short
Each told a story, apart
A whirlpool in my eyes swelled
I lingered, longer than I had intended, lost
Juice of an orange
Spilled over the dark rain clouds
Last coral sunset
Bound,
not for an eternity
Transient, this existence

Untethered,
bond with freedom
Know the boundaries
