A Melody Called Peace. Scott Johnson
in your hands protection I found
make me ever well off
you have given Parvathy, left off
Shiva my case you judge,
let my argument cutting-edge,
see complainant gets crushing humiliation,
and get my just jubilation,
Shiva! you are Sun- shine in mist
for my enemies, prove iron-first,
you are devotees precious gift
enroll me in your devotees list;
Let me have successful fight,
after all I am right,
bring the thieves to light
Shiva! so high your kite!
Believers in Shiva are sapphires!
their troubles he slowly fires!
their lives he makes excellent
everywhere they are brilliant,
For Non- descript feel no scare;
Shiva always minds your welfare!
Your concerns he does share!
enemies he’s going to tear!
Shiva! your glories I sing!
happiness in my life, bring!
you are heart- land king!
to your feet, I ever Cling!
You are full of imagination
Shiva! kill my petty botheration
for my enemies, work ruination
let your test have limitation
from struggles bless me salvation
for you, I have temptatio n
save me, without feeling hesitation
in battle, get me jubilation
‘Shiva’ is excitement and sensation
defeat my enemies with humiliation
Turn my suffering into jollification
work out my life- beautification
with you is my association
Shiva has my welfare concentration
From sadness, happiness you make
Shiva! come for heaven’s s ake!
incarnation now you must take
to save justice from fake!
On you, my hopes I pin,
Change my enemies to dustbin
Shiva! let my side always win!
As the case filed by morally thin!
Shiva! reinforce my confidence, Courage!
my enemies’ plans quash, damage
in your service I engage
devotion to you, my heritage
To serve you, my obligation
to protect me, your operation
wonderful are Shiva your creation
towards you, I have strong fascination
@Surrender is easiest mode,
Arjuna took that road,
Krishna transferred Arjuna’s load,
this is spiritual code.
Krishna rushes to your call
he is all in all
in Mahabharatha he stands tall
he never allows me fall
To serve you, my obligation,
to protect me, your operation,
wonderful are Shiva your creation
towards you, I have strong fascination
Krishna and Shiva both same!
God has different variety name
it is high time he came
and put enemies to shame
To serve is my obligation

wonderful! Shiva your creation
towards you, I have strong fasc ination.
In your service, I dedicate
with your devotees I associate,
Shiva! enemies-plans, you frustrate
on your name I always concentrate!
through circumstances, You communicate
With you, my side always won
troubleshoots, is your gun
life has been badly run
Shiva! at least now add fun
Man having sacred ash
has Shiva’s blessings- cash
devotees meditating Shiva ever
he will their sufferings sever
Shiva has surprises in store!
2007 was year of bore
2008 opens more opportunities door
success follows more and more
My Knowledge doesn’t invent
your service it underwent
sorrows, defeats you prevent
Shiva you are permanent
Technology touches the sky
Shiva is ever so high
Mobiles gadgets you buy
Tsunamis, Quakes don’t die
Krishna Margazhi your favourite month!
You are present, breadth and length
Rush as re- incarnation The Tenth
put my troubles to death
Make me rich to exist
In your service I persist
my enemies you fight, resist
to get success Shiva! assist
Shiva is force invisible
praying you is sensible
to serve you, desirable
make enemies’ designs miserable
My troubles Shiva you shoot!
ever I adore your foot!
your heart I did loot!
devotion to you, ideal route!
Eagle for Peace
By Robert Rampani, from Bridgeton, MO
I watched an eagle fly
high up in the sky.
Why must he fly so high,
I asked myself why?
He flies so gracefully,
with each stroke of wing.
As I watch him glide,
my heart simply sings.
With power and confidence,
he moves through the air.
