Poems by Dr. Shailesh Gupta Veer
YOU'RE UNIMAGINABLE
Your soft heart attracts me all time
Your holy mind calls me again and again
Your pious soul communicates with my soul
Your intense brain creats positivity in my brain
Your tongue fills fragrance in the atmosphere
Your intellectual beauty makes me crazy
Your vision gives me new philosophy about life
Whenever I see you,
thinking towards life becomes
more powerful and beautiful
You're Shloks of great Indian epics
You're Verses of Kalidasa
You're poetry of Rumi
You're Sonnets of Shakespeare
You're Haikus of Basho
You're so amazing so gorgeous
so magnificent so marvellous
so
so
so...!!!
My heart says again and again
You're unique creation
whom I was looking for centuries
You're more wonderful than-
My each and every dream
My each and every desire
My each and every thought
My each and every fiction
You're enormous
You're prodigious
You're unbelievable
You're unimaginable...!!!
A UNIVERSE IN HERSELF
Her sound is
as sweet as
the voice of a cuckoo,
The words spoken by her
keep echoing in my heart
like the song sung by the nightingale,
Her innocent gestures
keep the whole house smelling
like a rose garden,
Seeing her cute mischiefs
the heart becomes
like a Gulmohar tree,
When she comes to me
like the waves of the sea
and clings to me
and whispers in my ear
in her euphonious voice
"Dad, you're best
in the entire world",
That time I touch the sky
even while standing on the ground,
everything is beyond the imagination
My daughter is a universe in herself...!!
WITH WHITE CHIFFON DUPATTA
The brightness of her eyes
adds to the beauty
of the world,
The redness of her lips
makes twilight romantic,
The aura of her cheeks
thrills the mind,
The sound of her ear-rings
makes the whole environment
resonate,
The magical smile on her face
adds more fragrance to the flowers,
When she walks in an ocean green dress
with white chiffon dupatta,
It is very difficult for me to say that
The beauty of the world is
contained in her beauty
Or her beauty is contained
in the beauty of the world.
CANNOT BE COMPARED
Whose glory is greater than
the expanse of the sky,
Whose love is deeper than
the depth of the ocean,
Which is
the cause of
motion!
Whose touch turns
despair into hope,
Whose presence fills
nature with elation,
Which cannot be
compared to any other
in the entire creation!
The one who is
supernatural
in the cosmic world -
A Mother!!
THE LONE WARRIOR
The sky is shaking
The sun is horrified
My name is
on each and every particle of creation
Pin drop silence is spread throughout
I have won the whole world!
Still, I'm so lonely
Wandering in search of her
in all directions!!
Without her-
All victories are
purposeless
pointless
useless
senseless
meaningless!!!
Don't want the whole world
Wish she would be with me!
WHY?
Without conversation
Leaves do not move
Birds do not tweet
Flow of rivers stops
Fragrance decreases in the flowers
Brightness of the stars gets dim
Atmosphere is-
not glorious as before
Weather is-
So sad...
Very difficult to write poems!
You can understand, my dear
Why is it necessary to talk to you!!
IN THOSE MOMENTS
Deserted pathway and yellow sunshine
My heart was shivering like leaves
When I held her hand
The leaves were broken by the trees
Eager to welcome us with open arms
In those moments, she whispered
I love you
In my mind began to blossom
Innumerable buds of hope
Autumn was in full swing!
SHE LOOKS AT ME
My life is smelling like flowers
Feel the world is a beautiful garden
Then I become the luckiest person
When I kiss her left hand
And see there small tattoo of my name
Then love begins to emerge
In every particle of nature
When she looks at me blushing
Love cannot be expressed in paper
Wish that she live with me whole life!
I WILL WAIT
When I said to her
What do you think?
She replied-
Wait!
I waited...
After a long silence
She replied again
Wait more!!
I will wait for her for centuries!
CREATE A NEW WORLD
I have my own world
You have your own world
I am in my world
You are in your world
Come with me
We create a new world!
World of cooperation
World of trust
World of love
World of happiness
World of peace
World of harmony
That world will neither be mine
nor yours
but will be ours,
Come on...!!!
EVERY SPRING
Rapid stream of the river
causing upheaval in the mind
Heartbeats accelerating
Emotions floating
Pink dreams shining
Feelings becoming increasingly dense
Birds singing
Bees buzzing
New crops being sown
The magical season of spring has made me crazy
I am falling in love with her
How do I get her
I have a red rose of expectations
But I can hardly give it to her
I also have a ring of emotions
But I can hardly put it on her index
Knowing that I can't get her
How be it I dream about her
In view of the fact that
My dreams are my own
This is enough to make me blissful
If I get her, yet
The river is sure to go ahead
The birds and bees will fly
The crops will ripen and cut
But my love will never be less
I will wait for her every spring.
ARE YOU LISTENING?
You're sorrowful
Sorrowful
Each and every particle in the universe!
You're joyless
Joyless
Each and every particle in the universe!
You're sulky
Sulky
Each and every particle in the universe!
You're tearful
Tearful
Each and every particle in the universe!
You're talking
Talking
Each and every particle in the universe!
You're smiling
Smiling
Each and every particle in the universe!
You're laughing
Laughing
Each and every particle in the universe!
I wish that
Each and every particle in the universe
Always smile
Always laugh!
Are you listening?
What am I saying...
Yes
Smile and laugh!!!
LIVE AND LET LIVE
Planets, sky, stars, terra, moon, sun
All of these are for everyone!
Beacon, water, air, everything
Happiness to us, always bring!
The Lord never discriminates
So never should fight, dear mates!
Come on, unity's van, let's drive
Broadcast message: "Live and let live!"

WHEN I SAW THE SUN
When I saw the Sun,
Thought this is mine!
When I saw the Moon,
Thought this is mine!
When I saw the Stars,
Thought all these are mine!
When I saw the Sky,
Thought this is mine!
Then I wanted more…!
I was dissatisfied
I was very unhappy
I was almost Goth!
When I realized that
All these are for everyone,
Then humanity awakened in me!
Now -
I am satisfied
I am blissfully!!
WE HAVE TO STAND FIRM
Actual or virtual
world is world-
At both places
we will find
good and bad people,
We don't have to be desperate,
we have to stand firm!
Actual or virtual
world is world-
We should
never be disappointed,
and always do our work honestly.
Some people
will push us
and try to knock us
down,
We don't have to be desperate,
we have to stand firm!
Actual or virtual
world is world-
If here are
some people jealous of you,
some people also love you.
If some people here
don't think good for you,
some people never want your inauspicious.
We have to try to end
the dominance of evil,
We don't have to be desperate,
we have to stand firm!
Actual or virtual
world is world-
The battle between
good and evil
continues for centuries,
Good always wins
goodness proves
itself right
in each and every hard time.
Almighty God is always with Good
we have seen always.
We will win again
again and again
we will never leave the truth,
We don't have to be desperate,
we have to stand firm!
IN THE MOONLIGHT
I looked out the window
The fog was spreading its wings
and the dew was dallying
It was too cold in the moonlight
I missed her so much the whole night!
YOU WILL WAIT
When I see your pictures
Feel like-
You're made for me,
When I see your pictures
Realize-
The presence of sunshine in the day
and moonlight in the night
is not accidental,
When I see your pictures
My heartbeats and breathing become very fast,
When I see your pictures
Feel that-
A supernatural fragrance has spread everywhere
in the atmosphere,
When I see your pictures
My heart wants to kiss your hands
and to hold you in arms forever and ever,
Someday, I will get down
on one knee and say to you...,
Your cheeks will turn pink
and eyes will say, "Yes!"
Have hope-
You will wait!!
DURING THE CONVERSATION
During the conversation
Suddenly she asked me
Do you have any other talent,
Which I don't know
I answered
No, my dear!
Then she said to me
Tomorrow you will tell me
Five things about you
and said further
with a mischievous smile
"This is your homework!"
Thought a lot,
But I couldn't complete my homework
Now an idea in my mind...
When I'll meet her today
I will say humbly -
Will you do my homework?
I know very well
She will do this in a great way,
Because she knows more than me who I am!!
AT THE TOP
Never blame the fate
Never be disappointed
In whole life
Ever you win, ever lose
Human beings always
have to become steadfast
Frustrated mind can't do anything
Stand with full strength
Go ahead and fight
Walt Disney said -
"If you can dream it,
you can do it."
Dreams never should be
against humanity...be sure,
You will be
at the top!
