The Mobile Phone

The Mobile phone or the Cell phone,
Is indeed a great invention! .
To the small gadget—a contraption,
We are now in total addiction.

It has of late a grip—so strong,
Over the human psyche—
The phone to possess every one long.

There is a big explosion,
In the varieties of the phone,
With many a different application!

T he mobile phones—a plethora
Exist and tantalize us,
Like the I-phone, Smart phone et cetera!

We are lured by user apps' many,
As to browse the inter-net,
And to keep us good company.

Laughter

Laughter is a unique quality endowed to mankind;
It is completely denied to the animal mind.

When humour is dwelt upon and reared,
There emanates laughter and is shared.

Roaring laughter is contagious,
And humour is surely infectious.

Laughter escalates hilarity and happiness,
And humour diminishes weariness.

One can laugh at a joke, ridiculous,
And can scoff at another one, meticulous.

One needs to be like a child, so jolly,
Egoless and innocent to laugh so merrily.

Laughter requires a bit of intelligence,
As well as presence of mind and good sense.

We brag that India is the land of sages and saints

We brag that India is the land of sages and saints

They retired from the world enamoured of divine colloquy

Their feelings have been recorded in the Vedas and the Upanisads

They lived in the forests and sang hymns to Nature

They worshipped Nature in her every mood

They worshipped the storm they worshipped the flood

They worshipped the corn they worshipped the woods

The fiercest and the poisonous animals they loved

Nature was at the centre of their thought

They felt that they were the offsprings of Nature

I Give Birth To A Poem!

I GIVE BIRTH TO A POEM!

I am about to give birth to
a Poem!

I totter, engulfed by the unbearable,
Yet sweet intoxicating pains
With razor-sharp edges,
Striking me blind
With brilliant flashes in quick succession!

The war-drums of pains thunder-dance on me,
Hissing furiously like venomous cobras,
And striking fast knifing their fangs at my waist!

Oh! that designated moment has just arrived!
The sharp jabs of its steely second-hand
Erupt in me massive pains of roaring waves;

Mummy, Mummy Who Invented School?

mummy, mummy,
who invented school?

oh, sweetheart,
what a clever girl you are;
why don’t you tell me first
who you think invented school?

I think, mummy,
school must have been invented
it must be by people
like old grumpy Uncle Grim
next door;
and the grouchy Aunty Scowl
who lives behind our house

oh no, darling,

I Can Forget It

The other person has hurt me,
She has utterly disappointed me,
She is totally wrong—very clear.
I cannot forget it.

She doesn't seek forgiveness,
Even if it is sought—the forgiveness,
She doesn't deserve to be forgiven.
I cannot forget it.

About her my animosity looms,
She has been cruel to me—it zooms,
I vowed ne'er to forgive her.
I cannot forget it.

In me, the hurt keeps on throbbing,
My heart goes on endlessly sobbing,
It has led me to hate her.
I cannot forget it.

The good Samaritan

The Good Samaritan
Suddenly there occurs an incident,
‘Tis a harrowing gory road accident,
The man affected, is on the mid-road, bed,
Lying helpless and bleeding from his head.

His mo-bike is smashed from the ride,
And his belongings all strewn aside.
The passers-by for a view encircle him,
Curious at the happening so grim.

Many a vehicle did zoom past,
None did halt for they hadn't any heart.
A renowned, reputed and lauded man,
Too passed by in his popular van.

People around rushed to him for help,
But he turned aside and gave a yelp.
There came forward a person, guileless,
And spotted the man lying forlorn and helpless.

Tadaka

Samudaya janapad katha bhabibasile
tumara khola hata nirtesha karuchhi mo adaku
sandeha nahi, thik thik kari chaliba puni
ethakara sabu karmakarmani.
Mu pumi athi thia
aithu utari nebaku punu tumaku.. agaku.
Mu jane khanda pajei na rakhile
pasteibaku padiba pare
daha daha ninare luhaku tatei
garama rakhibaku heba natakara sesa jae.
A natakara sesha kouthi
Mu ta kebala gotae dala a natakara
chera jai rahichhi sata samudra bhitare
cheraku na upadibajae
tume kana swastire niswasa mari pariba.

Satyaku aaghata karu karu
satyatara pramana paili jetebele

For Many Many Years A Problem

for many many years a problem

seized me by my throat;

i ran to places broken-hearted

in search of a way-out of the muddle;

peace was at no peace with me

and swiftly receded far far into the horizon;

everywhere there seemed a solution

yet it was not to be, never to be;

i dashed my head with experts in the field

but my worries alone multiplied

The Pre-kg Prison

the pre-kg prison

&

i am the strongest critic of the pre-kg prison;
...
posted tirelessly on social websites the sufferings of tiny tots

kept screwed on to the backless wooden benches,

in half or full sleep, hiding their fears of 'miss ' teachers

for over three hours like frozen figures,

afraid of even to voice their nature's calls-

o pity the child that actually opens its lids at the school only-

all other processes in its house done in deep slumber!
