There is a tree yonder
as all trees it is huge
with branches spreading over
standing there for long
withstanding the wind
going cordial with the sun that screams though
with such a harsh note as burning
it still maintains peace all through
having been there for a century
near a bridge that has been built recent
where thousands of people pass through
generations nearly three have seen the tree
being a delight not only to see
but a place where one can find shelter
the tree has served with happiness
seen many politicians who speak lies
promising good government to the people
but could vouchsafe if it is able to speak
that none have kept up their words so far
the tree stands as a mute witness to all the atrocities around .
It still stands stoic facing all the mishaps .
Long live the tree for many more years from now.

Peace Be With Me.
I do not have any difficulties
that being very much seen in my faculties
with good eyesight all through
a voice not sweet but pleasing
brains very much above average
comprehension very sharp and keen
the body not too supple but flexible
with a heart able to bear any loss
the walk has slowed down a little
but could make good a mile even now
and a hand strong enough to carry
possessing a capacity to type at any speed
for any number of hours
that being my poition now
i do not have any reason to grumble or groan
except for a small mishap here and there
that too is acceptable at a ripe age
with the few grey hair popping out
and little hard to bite hard nuts
with the right knee aching if strained
other than that I have had a perfect life
with nothing to complain and egret.
Peace be with me always
as I at certain times try to make big of my errors .
Limitations.
Limitations being many
they being too many
wanting to get ahead is a tedium
as it brings with it a delirium
that takes the mind away
creating a chaotic intrusion anyway
they keep boggling the thoughts
not allowing a move of any sort
there be restrictions here
that say it is too hard to cross near
there being a confinement there
that proclaim it is a task to do it with care
as the deviations appear to be extraordinary
the mindsceases it operations and becomes dreary
releasing a kind of inconvenience and a suffocation
ordained to land in an emptiness without any provocation.
One More Day
The day is long
with nothing to do
almost dry and warm’
with no rain
being very sultry and sombre
with no activity whatsoever
the breeze is not felt
with no birds flying out
every thing seems to be calm
as being a Sunday
the day of the week
when there be a holiday all over
where there is no bustle and hustle
only the inmates in their parlour
ating and munching something or other
with their eyes glued to the television
while the child watch the Disney land
the adults get themselves tuned to movies
that had the headlines
well that be for the day
as it also has to move away
The Road I Take
