Meenas PoemsMoney taking the upper part
wherein we know not in short.
overtaking the factual to a degree
beheading truth in a steady
gobbling the reality fully
implicating a riot gleefully
leading to a destruction entirely
which is not seen immediately
but would surface in a while slowly
showing the doers their callousness
while they being exposed in greatness
with that the manipulation of money power
will never stop but go in strides in a hover
sealing the community to a futureless destiny.
Contests and competitions
bring in a lively manifestation
of prize money
Publishing becomes serious
Writing is always 
tedious
With a blog there is a reach
little over that it becomes a breach
getting verses in print
looks like a great stint
yet poets want to go across
irrespective of the toss
which might bring a repute
though there is a dispute
that fiction receives a welcome
poems bring no income
poetry still remains for a few
lighting up those who love it true
the publishing takes different forms
that of self and recognised norms
while the queue to get published is long
opting for self publishing becomes strong
with the money to invest possible
nothing goes on in this world as impossible.
Pockets of potholes seen on the road
Pockets of dirt found in the corners.
Pockets of land looking not flat.
Pockets that are visible
Pockets that lay camouflaged
Pockets big stitched in dresses .
Pockets small adorning the kids wear
So being pockets all in the fray
there arises a bump on the way
an accumulation in the sway
finally a 
resource in the bay.
Ending up the day
with a note of gay
bringing cheer in the way
along with a lovely say
that being one of play
the economy is out of bay
as it has started to pay
setting aside its lethargic lay
delivering a sparkling ray
promising a bright array
with a wonderful inlay.
It being a day of activity
where everyone was busy.
there arose a flutter hasty
that of a small intruder bouting in crazy.
He steadily moved to the safe room
having a mask and a gun
brandishing the gun around the gloom
brought the operations to a halt soon.
The staff ran scared here and there
he caught hold of them unaware
pushing them inside the room over there
broke open the safe with much care.
In no hurry took everything valuable
came out with the bounty
locked the office with a key almost impenetrable.
walked away with enormous glee.
Those in the room could not come out
with the telephone line snapped
and electricity cut off almost
had to stay there all day long locked
How swiftly and easily things are done?
beguiling the security measures modern
The surveillance cameras and security alarm are fun
as they fall much below the man’s strategy in turn.
My back yard with trees huge
expressing greenery all around
turned white in a deluge
a change different and unsound.
With none of us at home that day
with appointments elsewhere
the builder next door in a way
dug a bore without any care.
The peat soil flew all over
clothing the lovely trees white
with the ground drenched by a sand shower
Oh! it was a very ghastly sight.
With the white attire intact
the trees remained horrible
and with no rains in fact
they were destined to be so in all possible.
The builder went about unbothered
many calls and warnings were left answered
Town planning rules being not followed
perhaps broken by bribes in silent method.
The world thus moves on in mirth
where the law breakers find a way out
as their wrong doings go in stealth
the rightful stand to lose all throughout.
Saw a bunny
it looked funny
gnawing a carrot
squeaking like a parrot
went running uphill
came tumbling downhill
looking like a snow ball
responding to the call
it was a visual treat
keeping one upbeat.
Going by the days that have gone by
what a time it was recollected without shy
the days I played hopping with my friends
the years I worked to get through in trends
the hours I spent in preparing for the examinations
the minutes I 
lost myself in observations
the seconds that led me to risky foreclosures
all come to my mind in a packed enclosure
making me to sit back with a relaxation
and also ponder over with a redemption
calling for an immediate renunciation
alienating the earthly wishes from the occupation
accepting what comes in the way as a lively revenue
expecting no further bonus or perquisites in retinue.
This tryst being assumed in determination
will find a way out in timely duration.
I planted a lemon tree
and with it another a little away.
The two grew in great spree
one beating the other in a way
healthy and lovely they grew
from a sapling to a plant fine
tuft and green in hue
a little while after with a shine
came out the flowers tiny
blossoming with a nice fragrance
thence shot up the little fruit shiny
dark green and small in reference
with mounted anxiety watched the fruit
that became bigger and bigger
turning yellow slowly in the shoot
it was a sight very magnificent in vigour
with a yellowish green display
enhancing the environment with a colourful play.
