Dear Friends,

Few days back my blog "Oh Mother" had been uploaded at rediff homepage. I received very good response through e-mails & comments. A million thanks to my friends and iLanders.

Today I have few questions in my mind and I would like to ask these questions to you.

Some good friends of mine asked me "what I did? Did I help that lady?" when I saw that poor lady nearby the airport.

Few of them wrote "I write like a politician". One friend asked me, when it was 5 degree C temperature in Delhi? Could you please answer me following questions?

• What is a poem? Isn't it a way of expressing the feelings?
• Can't I write for myself? I took a decision for myself.
• Should I disclose it in my poem "How did I help, and what I did?"
• Should I disclose my donation in public? Than what is "Gupt Daan"?
• May be I am wrong.the temperature of Delhi was not 5 degree C that day, But is it not the condition of our country, haven't you seen this anywhere?
• While helping/serving poor & others, couldn't I ask to general public to do the same?
• Shouldn't I open my mouth after seeing such kind of poverty in my country?
• Isn't a responsibility of each citizen?

My friends sometimes I feel..I should not write all these things in my poems or I should stop writing poems. I should serve my country without saying or expressing a single word. "Yahan par logo ki aatma ko jhakjhorne wala sabse bada murkh hai". Log usi ko updesh dena shuru kar dete hai.

Follow a simple word "love". When you love people, you can see a picture of GOD in every face provided your love is pure and not for your own benefit. And if you can see GOD in every face, you can never ignore them. This is universal fact.

मेरा कहना यह है ' कि जब आप इस धरती के हर जीव से सच्चा प्यार करोगे आपको प्रभु हर जगह , हर चेहरे मे दिखायी देने लगेंगे , और तब आप प्रभु की सेवा करना अवश्य चाहेंगे, और किसी भी जरूरतमंद की सहायता अवश्य ही करेंगे । ये मेरा मानना है , मे किसी को कुछ करने के लिए उपदेश नही दे रहा .

जितना प्यार आप अपनी प्रेमिका से करते है (लोग अपनी प्रेमिका को उसकी धड़कनों से पहचानते है , उसके बोलने के ढंग से पहचानते है कि उसको परेशानी क्या है , फ़ोन पर बात करते है और सारी फीलिंग्स को समझते है ) वही प्यार हमको इस धरती के समस्त जीवो से करना है ..तभी हमारा देश प्रगति की तरफ़ जाएगा । मेरे एक गीत की दो पंक्तियाँ यहाँ पर बोलूँगा .........,

" वो हर जीवन को दे दूंगा , जो प्यार सिर्फ़ "उसको " था दिया ..!
मुझको पछतावा होता है , क्यो मैंने उसको प्यार किया .!!

My dear friends/iLanders,

I thank you all for showing the amount of love and respect for my poetry. Whenever I read comments, you may not believe, I start crying.

Believe you me, whatever I write, it just because of you my friends, you appreciate my feelings and I write better.

I have a dream and it'll happen.. I want to serve people in any manner. And I am doing. My friends don't think like "when we'll become rich than we'll help" whatever you have; please try to manage with that. We'll never have satisfaction in our mind. As I write some lines in my poetry..

मैं नही पर्याप्त इस जग को सहारा दे सकूं ........,
पर मैं करूँ उतना , मेरी औकात से मैं कर सकूं... ! !

I hate those people who always show mercy. And they think they have done their work.. no my country doesn't want any kind of mercy or sympathy, whatever we do for our family members; we should do the same for our people.

किस किस से मैं करूँ निवेदन ,
दया नही , तन मन धन से सहयोग करे ।
प्रभु मुझे सिखा दो धन अर्जन ,
जिसका निर्धन उपयोग करें ॥

So start to do something, please avoid donate money to any kind of charity trust or temples, rather than this you can take responsibility to teach a poor child, or you can adopt a baby and take care as your blood.

My friends GOD is not in temples, but GOD is there in the heart of poor children/people. And if you are not able to do all this.than go to any hospital and serve/help some patients, their blessings will help you in your life.

I am not any GURU or Teacher, but these are my feelings and I write my feelings for you people "Meri Kavita yadi ek bhi aadmi ki soch badalti hai, mai samjhunga ki mera kavita likhna safal ho gaya".

Thanks,

Your's

कविता क्या है ?

खुशियों से दामन रूठा है ,
दुःख दर्द से दिल भी टूटा है
ऐसा गम ह्रदय छूता है ,
बेबस नज़रों से चूता है ॥

यदि अश्रु ना छलकें आंखों मे,
तनहाई हो दिन रातों मे ।
एक पंक्ति कंठ से आती है ,
पीड़ा और व्यथा सुनाती है ।

ऐसी करुणामय वो रचना,
सच्ची कविता कहलाती है ॥

कवि क्या है ??

जिसने बांटा इन छंदों को ,
एक महफ़िल के कुछ बंदों को ।
जो जीने को समझाता है ,
जीने का अर्थ बताता है ॥

प्रेम न्याय और सत्य दया,
सब रचनाओं मे गाता है ।
अपना गम सीने मे रखकर
दुनिया को खूब हँसाता है ॥

कहे तिवारी ऐसा विरला ,
सच्चा कवि कहलाता है ॥
