Dr John Celes Poems

Forget the Old Year's rot!
Learn to be wise from past;
Avoid the blunders made;
Preserve your priceless life.
...

Born on the day when Christ was born,
A person lucky you're!
A day, world celebrates the morn,
When came Bethlehem's star.
...

Almighty God is One unseen;
Our earthly eyes can't see spirits;
Lord Jesus was the visible God;
God's face shines like a thousand suns;
...

Their rented house was better than their own;
They went abroad to spend some weeks and rest;
All seemed so well away and in their town;
Their time with daughter was in life the best.
...

The water table had gone down;
Riparian states refused to share;
Delayed Monsoons worsened the state;
So, people prayed for rains to come.
...

All I want this Christmas is…
For rains to stop for now,
And sun to shine in glory,
Dry up the streets, wet ground.
...

Rain-battered city limps to normalcy;
The rain had caught the people unawares;
The heavy rain has hit the common man;
Inundated lies many places still.
...

O Virgin Mary, pure of heart!
God chose you from the very start;
And gave you birth without the stain
Of Original sin or sin.
...

How many times must I forgive?
-Seven and seventy times, said Christ;
When we expect God’s forgiveness,
Should we not forgive our neighbors?
...

Like chaff in wind, the wicked disappear;
Their evil deeds will vanish without trace;
From righteous souls, good deeds galore appear,
Reminding all, their memories and face.
...
