Dr John Celes Poems

The springs of life bring glorious days each year,
With verdure leaves and flowers of fine hues;
Though scorching, summers bring the harvests dear,
And helps the farmers pay back loans and dues!
...

Good friends like pearls are hard to find;
Good friends are bodies of same mind;
Good friends share joys and woes alike;
Good friends will gossip just dislike.
...

Most precious, we can bet,
Of all the gifts in life we get,
That money can't buy,
Are children doubtlessly -our wealth, and yet
...

I know, my God will work out things for me,
No matter how impossible they seem;
In ways beyond my imagination,
As if I experienced the wildest dream.
...

Salute the teachers who had made
Us see the world and learn what's life;
Salute the persons who had laid
The foundations of ken through strife.
...

River of life - Blood
coursing through conduits,
fluid tissue with formed elements,
and host of chemicals that the body needs,
...

How many Goliaths arise from ash
Like a phoenix, challenging all righteous men!
The giant evil-doers are so rash,
And strong enough to kill lions in a den!
...

Man is man, and woman, woman!
Let them confuse not their primary roles;
Each one can do well too in other's spheres,
But certainly not in some areas!
...

It does not matter what kind of work you do,
But put your mind and heart and soul into it;
It does not matter which road you take in life,
But walk or run with steadfastness, warily.
...

On donkey's back, with child in womb,
The Virgin Mary came;
They travelled long to Bethlehem
And searched for room in vain!
...
