My Unpublished Poems
I.
Happiness
By Joji Varghese Kuncheria
In pursuit of happiness in life,
That we strive hard to achieve,
Mysterious in many ways is it,
Mastering it is the art of living.
Struggling through life's ocean,
In search of the yonder shore,
Through the high and low tides,
Makes us the master craftsmen.
Life is what we make it to be,
Originating with our thoughts,
The very thoughts that shapes,
The plans and purpose of life.
The sort of mischiefs we do,
Seeking happiness or for thrills,
Turns out often to be momentary,
Or a worhless exercises we do.

My Family
By Joji Varghese Kuncheria
I have a lovely family to boast,
Lively as always for a toast,
More than ever to be a host,
Which I like in them the most.
Always in front to do service,
All free and not for any fees,
Doing things with no malice,
Rightly the way to do things.
Entrust them with any work,
When they seem to be stuck,
On a hard task with no luck,
They still pursue with a wink.
Family is society's backbone,
And a nation's cornerstone,
The strong foundation stone,
That makes a nation well known.

Arabian Winter
By Joji Verghese Kuncheria
1.
Disappearing heat
A mystery of this region
Winter in the desert
2.
Cool seasonal breeze
Driving summer heat away
Singing an adieu
3.
Winter approaching
Outdoor games in full swing
Kept at bay a while
4.
A resounding park
Jubilant children welcome
An early Winter
5.
Children on Winter break
Breaking all things left and right
Breaking my head too
6.
Oh come December
Loveliest time of the year
A break from the heat
7.
Cool breezy morning
Winter in the Middle East
Goose bumps on my hand
8.
A misty morning
Loveliest time of the year
A song on my lips
9.
Winter is so cool
A cool time to fool around
My buddy and me
10.
A cool thing to do
To walk in the Winter morn
Holding her warm hand
