Dr John Celes Poems

God made man from dust of earth;
To dust, we’ll surely return;
God made man with soul and so,
Man seeks God and divine mirth!
...

Love is so sacred in our earthly life;
Each one prefers a partner of his choice;
It is a gamble in selecting one’s wife;
Consummated marriage has woes and joys.
...

A good poem exits the poet’s heart,
When inspired enough, flowing with ease,
In a way emotional, right from the start;
When feelings abate, it will tend to cease.
...

They slogged all life for self and family;
They sacrificed their precious time for all;
They worked for children’s sake primarily;
They made others’ life sweet: their own like gall!
...

Full seventeen years have rolled off now
Since marriage; only God knows ‘how? ’
We may have had our years of strife;
But on the whole, ‘twas nice a life!
...

Love that can never change;
Love, for all men, supreme;
Love unsurpassable;
Love divine, paramount.
...

When I wake up each morning late,
And feel that something’s wrong with me,
I curse my birthday and my fate –
It is a warning sign, ‘I am depressed! ’
...

Christ paid the price of mankind's sins
By suffering and his death on cross;
‘Repent and enter heaven, all,
If you can have a contrite heart.'
...

God wrote my name upon His palm
Before He formed me in mom's womb;
God sees my heart and knows my thoughts,
My weaknesses and love, I bear.
...

The present world in doldrums lies;
Gone haywire are family ties;
Man looks beyond the clouds and skies,
With soul in sin, man stays unwise!
...
