Dr John Celes Poems

I see some persons laughing all the time;
They wear a mask of artificial smiles;
Their tongues are smooth and eyes are deceptive;
They boast of living prudently and wise!
...

There’s a hole in the sky,
Amidst the rain-bearing clouds,
And only when the gap is closed,
Will the rain finally come,
...

The Acrobatic ‘Man-Bird-Fish! '

Man flies in air wingless, ‘bird-like’!
Man swims in water like a fish;
...

Listen to God;
Go by His Word;
Follow His code;
Live in the Lord;
...

Up on the rocky ledge,
A moment as a man;
Up in the air afloat,
A moment like a bird;
...

I Love My Motherland India Because:

Integrity of the nation is paramount
No one is above the laws of the land
...

A former PM was banished;
The charm of the land has vanished;
A valiant leader is no more;
The hearts of many are quite sore.
...

Two sibling children are at play;
The ‘horse’ is elder sister, Jill,
Whose younger brother ‘driver’ Bill
Sits on an ‘Umbrella-cart’, gay!
...

Dressed in coat and suit and tie,
Anglo-Indian Teacher my;
Wearing shoes with shine always;
Tall in stature, meek, honest, Ayes!
...

What shall I give my Valentine?
A bouquet of flowers
Exquisite cards with heart-felt words
Exotic foods and pastries
...
