Give me a hand
said the angel with a wand
not trusting the angel fully
he extended his hand partially
the angel seeing his distrust
came forth with a test
that being a check for his belief
one that could grant him a relief
she asked him to lift her high
he thinking it to be an easy try
made an attempt to bring her i
it became difficult as she was heavier
though she appeared slender and elegant
her weight was unexpectedly defiant
letting his attempts go in futile
he gave up the struggle
with that the angel gracefully rose
flying into the clear blue skies with a force.

Fighting Tooth And Nail
There being no amity among the brothers
that being very much tarnished
with that of one brother
the rest numbering to three
got together to oust him out
not aiming to break the ties
but refusing him any portion of he wealth
that they all had got of inheritance
one coercing with the other
while the third one posing as a good one
trying to fish out is going in the mind of the one
so as to hatch a plot and get him out
with great effort the family of the affected brother
kept them all away from throwing tantrums
while they by sheer skill and with judicial expense
managed to get the larger portion of the wealth
while the minor part has to be let out in the milieu
having had to fight for the major part of his life .
Where Is Law?
The laws call for no flaws
however we find more defects
that escape from the legalities
finding a loophole is as quick
as that of closing and opening the eye
with that goes the man scot-free
not answerable to any law that is found
.
The law books abound with clauses and sections
that carry our many instructions
being that how many of us
has read all these rules and regulations
leave alone the lay men
how many jurists would be familiar with these
one can vouchsafe that there be not a handful.
With the frailties that go to the levels much high
the judiciary seems to be a miscarriage all over
with frequent abortions on the anvil
the legalities die a natural death in the fetus
that be an opportunity for the penalised
get away from the judicial custody
entering the world with a new thought and desire.
I
When The Wind Blows
the wind is calling me
from a way away
persuading me to fly with it
across the oceans
crossing the deep blue waters
carrying the salty moist laden vapours
with a fury and frame most strong
depositing them into the place it lands
resting there for a while in the still silence
again collects its momentum with a force
then blows across the opposite direction
raging in violence bringing the sky down
with that it enters another region in the sphere
completely tamed down and quiet
flowing like a cast away
ending up meekly and demure
looking as though it is paying its obeisance .
There lay a heap
be it trash
where could we find
things all in dust
good or bad might be.
The heap grew in size
as days passed by
going higher and higher
piled upon the lovely earth.
They become contaminated
flies and mosquitoes breed over
stray dogs pull them over
making a mess of the whole.
Those that disintegrate
mulched and decimated
the strewn bags of polypropylene
lay there glaring hideously.
This careless act of throwing
embitters the environment
rendering a habitation
unfit for living.
That may be a point as of now
that concern of the future
looks horrible and disastrous
converting fertility to sterility.
