Dr John Celes Poems

How Nature creates life thats dear with ease?
How Nature sifts, selects, protects the best?
Yet, man creates, sometimes with new disease;
In ways, unheard of, costly, but with zest.
...

What can I say about the Lord who made
The Universe with wisdom, intellect?
His glory can't diminish or ever fade,
For everything He planned was too perfect!
...

What beauty lies in clouds studding the sky,
That glass-like shows the land afar below!
God's firmament, a wonder, when we fly
By man-made aero-planes and God's rainbow!
...

Unless a grain of wheat is sown in soil,
And dies, decays, transforms, gets life anew,
And sprouts into a sapling through one's toil,
It cannot grow to bear fruits that are due!
...

You are the best I have, my brother nice!
I know so well you suffer too like me;
Your heart is honest, broadminded, and wise;
I pray God must bless you quite soon surely.
...

Don't love all things on earth with all your heart;
Let not your mind be drench'd with love for it;
For time decides that things all must depart,
And 'tis too late to break your love habit.
...

I have no soul to share my joys and woe;
I have no one to tell my grief, sorrow;
I ask myself, “Have I asked things far more? ”
But this is how my life will have to go!
...

The name of Jesus gives us grace anew;
The name of Jesus cures minds of evils;
The name of Jesus portrays divine view;
The name of Jesus drives away devils.
...

Sixty years have rolled off
Since India turned afree;
But minds and hearts of people
Stays in malady!
...

To own a cruise-liner was not my dream;
To have my island own was not my aim;
To be a leader of a global team,
Was not in my agenda for world fame!
...
