Dr John Celes Poems

People with intact eyes, yet appear blind;
Peop1e with alert ears seem not to hear;
People with intact nose, no sme11 can find;
People with every joy appear to tear.
...

When ants in hundreds cut a snake, piece-meal,
The moral says that union is strength;
A smaller group can bigger foes too deal;
One’s brain-work matters, not the body length!
...

A father loves that son, who most obeys,
And maintains sense of values in his life,
And tends to parents when old, in last days,
With faith in God, unswerving, amidst strife.
...

Never compare yourself with anyone;
You are a unique being upon earth;
Most things can be achieved under the sun;
Your self-confidence level is the dearth!
...

Alas! When winter left the world so bare,
with trees and plants denied of their welfare,
the birds begged God to change the sordid scene:
Spring sprung a surprise making landscape green!
...

Sweet mother,
We remember
Our stay together,
With dear father!
...

The tomb is empty
The stone’s rolled aside
His clothes are one side
Christ’s body isn’t inside
...

A baby girl grown up has many roles;
The mother’s part she does, becomes her best;
Nevertheless, she passes in this test;
And leaves the world with many happy souls!
...

To the slaughter-house! To the slaughter-house!
Here we cows all go;
We gave men milk and butter, ghee;
They want our beef now;
...

And now and then, I taste the foods I shouldn't;
So stupidly in utter disregard;
The things I loved to eat, some now I couldn't;
My allergy too has made me a Bard.
...
