Do little And Do more.


DOo little and Do more.The two sisters in a town
Do little and Do more
lived happily in a house
making their mother mad.
.

Do little did little
or remained doing nothing
making her mother
do all the more.

Do more did more
or did chaotically more
making her mother
do it once more.

The Do little lazily
slept in a bed cosy
eating and sleeping being
her daily chores.

The Do more enthusiastically
worked always systematic
cleaning, cooking gardening .
not missing any of her duties.

The mother caught in between
the sisters dull and bright
had a tough time
overseeing and completing .

One did nothing
while the other did everything
leading to nothing the result
in both the cases is zero.

Imagine the mother
doing everything not once
but twice all day
getting exhausted all the more.

Do little is better of the two
doing and spoiling nothing
Do more spoilt all things
by doing everything.

Nothing apparently has more value
than infinity uncountable
Learning a lesson we understand
do anything only if you know.

Mothers Stand Aside Please.


stock-photo-14462369-mother-scolding-her-daughter
Jumping and hopping in the garden
the little girl spent her evening
much to the displeasure of her mother.

The girl was good in schoolwork
well equipped in science and maths
excelled in all subjects with distinction.

Yet the mother wanted her to do more.
wishing her daughter to clinch the honour
in an inimitable manner setting a record.

The over enthusiasm of the mother
looked awkward at times turning it into
green greed restricting the child’s pleasures.

The girl with her sweet temper drew a line
between her mother’s ambition and her own outlets
and did extraordinary in her academics in the year-end.

Delighted the mother made a great fuss
unaware of how her daughter made both ends meet.
telling everyone as how she encouraged the girl.

Mothers, please stand aside and watch your ward advance.
let not you impose your wishes on them autocratly
remember childhood crosses only once in life.

The Hare And Tortoise—-A Dream Race


hareThe while little bunny
sat on his tummy
while munching
a carrot.

The tortoise lazy
moved in a glossy
surface while
in chase of a lizard..

The cute rabbit
as always his habit
thought of the old race
started to run.

The tortoise slow
as ever saw around
and crawled in its pace
with renewed confidence.

The hare ran and ran
The tortoise crawled and crawled
The winning post was little away
I waited with a beating heart.

The hare panting advanced.
The tortoise heaving approached.
Oh! it is going to be a tie
said I relieved.

It was a tie hard to decide
Awarding the honour to both
happily got out from my bed
Lo! it was all but a dream.

A Witch In A Woman.


witchcraft.A woman in her mid sixties
behaves quixotic
Walks in a peculiar way
moving sideways
speaks with no sense
always bragging
thinks she is beautiful
which she is not
performs black witchcraft
for malignant references
against her in-laws
mostly on a family
as she is jealous of them
They progress in spite of
these manifestations
and the manipulations
her husband does
by denying their birth rights
and inheritance
Such people do exist
and do unnatural
rites to bring doom to
the family they envy.

My Knee


????????????????????????????????????????The knee which has borne me through
which has held my weight all through
which had made me walk with style
which helped me fold and squat,
which stood me at all times
is slowly giving way.

The Commitment Be Yours Too


organic farming
A man and his wife
lived humble with a strife
in the outskirts of a city
away from the rumble.

They had no issues
lived with mango trees
and coconut palms
in the shady realm.

They did organic cultivation
using leaves and waste in proportion
as potential manure to stimulate
the trees and enrich the land,

They pumped water from tanks
using solar power without any prank
the man and his wife thus
contributed to the wellness of land

Their yield was remarkable
while their products were chemical free
all in one stroke they
enhanced the land and man.

Their field was shady
the heat was minimal
the area looked so pleasant
different from the rest.

They are philanthropists
in their own way
contributing to the environment
by deploying techniques excellent.

Take Care.


phone
A little while ago
in the early hours
while getting up from bed
the telephone rang.

Gathering the body together
Took the receiver
heard a loud laugh with
a noise of clearing the throat.

Little bewildered on one side
and bit amused on the other
in a tone angry shouted
Hello , hello, hello thrice.

The laughter did not stop
went on for a few seconds
and a voice gruff
spoke in mono syllables

Take care of you
Take care of your belongings
Take care of your safety.
followed by loud laughter.

The voice was familiar
but changed to deceive
It was my friend’s
who plays such games for fun.

Fun or real
such calls are annoying
and cause a fear and dislike
early in the morn.

My Grandchildren


grandchildrenHeard a song in the garden .
It was so soft without any burden.

The song flowed down the aisle
and through the windows in a sail.

Pushing the curtains little and peeping
found my grand-daughter singing

Knowing, my presence would make her halt
stood with tempered feelings behind the slot.

Our own children made us responsible. .
but their children grant us pleasures invisible
