Still a mystery
Sometimes we feel it
Sometimes it's around us
But we can't touch it
Sometimes it comes
Sometimes it goes
But we can't stop
Everyone needs it
Some have already got it
Some are still to find it
Sometimes it is painful
Sometimes it gives happiness
You know what ...
It is "Love"
No one can understand it
No one can describe it
because everyone perceives it differently
Actually,
What is LOVE ????
Niyomi S. Bakmeedeniya
The secret of youth
Happiness kindness and encouragement
To one another
Go hand in hand
Making one's life lovely and youthful
When youth steps in
You feel joyous
And with courage and strength
Romance and elegance
No longer are you a child
You admire everything,
Feel the power of attraction
Humming bird, sing for you
The sun's rays hug you
Everything's a dream
New friends encircle you
You share gales of laughter
Trips, music, dancing parties
Make you happier
The world is so nice to live in
The flowers in blossom
The serene beams of morn
The tiny glittering stars
The multifarious fashions
They all make you alive

Rumpus in the campus
Paraded undergrads worn towels
On the new Galaha road
Protesting the delay of a man
Who undertook to wash clothes
Paraded undergrads worn red shirts
In the hill capital
Protesting Americans
Who invaded Vietnam
Paraded undergrads worn sweaty shirts
In front of the 'Senate'
Protesting the authorities
Who failed to provide residences
Paraded undergrads worn white coats
In front of the Health Ministry
Protesting the Government
Which granted private medical colleges
Paraded undergrads worn in multicolours
In front of the UN mission
Protesting the UN panel
Due to the unjust he did towards SL
Wijeratne Dahigamuwa
All that glitters
His black feathers
Glint as he struts about
Full of confidence
His feathers seem to be
Of silky satin
As they catch the sunlight
His beak glitters
With polished perfection
Full of strength
The crow seems a magnificent creature
But, then again
"All that glitters is not gold!"
Nillasi Liyanage
Hunger
There is no way
To beat it without
A handful of money
But everyone tries
Their best to fulfil
It with a stomachful
Some enjoy more
Than enough while
Poor suffer from
Starvation in
Every second....
