A Special Message from Shobana for the New Year 2025

A year slips away once again

Soon the past

to relive in memories

the clock ticks now

at the stroke of twelve

We'll welcome a brand

New Year!

I wish for you 

from every corner of the globe

A heart full of joy and love

and

May happiness

be shared

May Peace reclaim

The Freedom lost

regain

May dreams come true

Happy New Year

2025

Everyone!!

Have a great year ahead!

Beneath the Boughs Evergreen

 

Beneath the Boughs Evergreen

On this Holy Night

Where sheaths of gold and red

Welcome the twinkling stars abright

Reveal the mystery 

of a story reborn

in pomp and splendour.

In the silence there above

a star did shine.

I wished to be among the one

who trailed the star that led

to the Holy One

O what joyous honor

that would accord

A Child of God.

O hear the angels on golden harps raise their voices on a stable forlorn

In a cradle there to find

a baby boy, The Son of God

born to a blessed woman

O Mary.

The sprinkles of silver dust

fills the skies

and set the world alight,

and now we celebrate

the birth of the Lord

in Grandeur.

Merry Christmas Everyone

The Lady and Her Roses

The roses were exquisite

satiny white, full-bloomed, and perfumed.

Their fragrance filled the hall of the mall,

alluring senses

an enticing

in the eyes of the lady.

'A bouquet for the lady

to catch the light in her eyes,'

he said as if the roses ignited an ardent wish

in her presence to decorate.

 

She, he saw was tempted, 

to have it in her possession.

 

She walked like a bride with her roses

Through sun-scorched pavements

clutching the dew-kissed roses 

in the palm of her hand.

The roses kept her spirits high

The beauty of the roses was inebranable,

Unmatched and unfazed

the two became the centre of attention.

The Lady and her roses.
