It be a dash straight on the wall
hitting the forehead
that rising into a bulge
devastating moment it was
with the toddler crying with pain
the parents knowing not what do
shattered by the sobs of the kid
placing ice pack on the hit
the child crying even more
what a pain the poor one would have felt!
with tears rolling down his cheeks
sobbing intermittently for full twenty minutes
the sister standing aghast with a shock
looking at her brother crying loudly.
the entire household became paralysed
To everyone’s astonishment
the little boy walked towards his toys
Well! that be the way all kids behave
with
the grown ups still being into the strike and dash.

The Days and Distractions
The weeks keep going with days folding
the hours cling to each other in the sailing
the events crowding in a jumbled row
all gets forgotten in the feverish flow.
The episodes of the day require attention
with the chaos creating a commotion
there seems to be a deviation from the straight
much against the proposed installations of the right
Getting deep into the interventions
where there are unwanted associations
requires a handling with great focus
otherwise they would get you stranded in the nexus.
A withdrawal be the best on the spree
letting you to rest in peace and be free
an involvement would be a cyclic indulgence
calling for a periodical appraisal and appearance.
If all intend not to participate
the world would be a place of dissent
where the malicious would move ahead
leaving the righteous to trail behind.
Humanity And Humility
The Memory is Short.
The year going up to three hundred and sixty-five days
while the leap year having a day more
they roll on in no time as seen
great they seem to be when they begin
amidst shouts of Happy New Year
going demure when they wind up
with the heave and a sigh
saying with a displeasure
that another year has passed.
This being the charm of birth
and being the melancholy of death
when anything new and fresh dawns
there be a cheer and rejoice
both fading away from the arena
as quick as a wink in a shot
as the memory lasts not long
getting into the regular norms
that being the acceleration of the events.
The Rugged Path
Expecting nothing out of life
that which received came in the course
that being lost which works out great
went without coming to me at all.
As the rivers flow through with ripples
life pass through without much events
there being no furore or flutter great
going by the tide being the way.
Has had many misgivings in life
settled back with contours of grievance
had to overcome them in the go
otherwise would have been sealed by their ridges.
Perceiving a steep mountain unnerved me
the height and loftiness made me lose hope
awed by its massiveness I stood below
amazed by its beauty I became enchanted.
That being the essence of life in a verse
the mountainous passage having a meandering path
negotiating and walking high up with strain
a pursuit difficult but not impossible
Pursuing the clamber with a will and focus
forgetting that directionless climb would lead astray
slowly and steadily have made the way
being an achievement calling for an award.
The Dark Knight
Bringing Up Children
Spend more time with your children
that would be for a promise
looking after them with care
would prove to be a bliss.
Spend time not money on them
as the attention you devote necessarily
hastens in a great progress definitely
that would be an achievement in the float.
Spending money on them and on their wish
could lead them to a growth phenomenal
being like a cat on the wall watching deliberately
aiming on a rise or a slip into a fall.
The extravaganza you put forth
putting them in expensive boarding schools
pulls them off from you two-fold
creating a distance in proximity and affection.
Pampering them with largess in all
Settling them in comforts in full
reposes them in a faith untoward
they not knowing the reality in an entertain.
That be the way to bring up children
monitoring them closely yet away
being not an expense too much nor too little
a balanced juxtaposition that would delight.
Time Factor
How Do You Spend Time?
The regular chores wherever you may be
be it in your home town or abroad
seem to be the same all throughout.
Amused I find myself when people ask
how you spend time over board?
straightening up I thinks for a while.
Nothing pretty different for me anywhere
with the routine behind you
reading, writing and cooking.
With the roof over the head as it should be
with a comfortable working space
I feel no difference wherever it be.
Shopping has always been not my way of life
with a few wants and desire
find great comfort at home with my companions.
Companions, you might wonder who could they be?
there be not life around but lively things across
throwing light on topics of interests that carry me on.
By now,
you would have guessed what they are?
being that of books and my computer
those take me around the world from where I am ?
After giving out so much I ponder
why they be so inquisitive on my day-to-day work?
as I am a very ordinary person known not by many.
I settle down with ease quiet looking around
they be asking all these for the sake of talking
a time pass for them not for anything serious as I think.
The Nuances Of Transition
The days fly away.
The leaves fall down,
The winds surge above.
The thoughts range behind,
There is a movement always
whatever be the posture
there be an up and down
that of a sideways expanse too.
The revolution of the earth around the sun.
The rotation of the earth on
its own axis .
The waning and waxing of the moon
all tell us about the motion
The waves coming in and going out
The sky clear turning cloudy.
The day becoming night,
all tell us about the changes routine.
The physic robust tending to become weak.
The youth in form aging to old in frailty
That be the nuances of transition
implying an intrinsic worth and flight
