Praise The Dead.

Praising the one when he is dead
making him a saint
apart from all follies
away from all flaws
has become the practice.
Know not why it has become so
When one is alive
he faces confrontations
and suffers verbal attacks
even physical assaults.
The moment he passes away
he is spoken high off
his negatives become positives
growing high in image
held in esteem by the very same
who talked ill of him.
Wonder ,why such things happen.
Feel, why not people behave normally.
Sense, a quality of belittlement.
Experience, a toxic level of excitement.

Patience Is A virtue.

With the right turn
she went away
getting hurt
and badly beaten
by the remarks and tease.
She, being genial
got along in cordial
never rubbing anyone
on the wrong side
Taking care in extremes
smiling at all in pleasant
talking in terms cool
behaving with elegance.
Unfortunately she got
a treatment bad
and a deride sad
making her reject everyone.
This being the first time
she expressed her displeasure
and made a walkout
to show her protest.
Patience is a virtue no doubt
But excess of it becomes a vice .

The Strong Will

A strong-willed person
lacks a strong physique
With a frail body
and very less immunity
he contracts infection
every now and then
Getting over one
he catches another
which drain his resources
making him weak and tired
but with his determination
overcomes these discomforts
moving along with the world
participating in every event
emerging successful
proving that strength of mind
sustains the spirit than the body.

Insignificant Though.

Riding high over the hills
galloping in great speed
The messenger reached the house
where he had to deliver the mail.
Knocking the door several times
he received no response
as he was about to turn around
heard a noise of releasing the latch.
Once again climbed the steps toward the door.
Saw a petite woman standing looking sick.
He handed over the mail to her
waited for her signature .
With trembling hands she signed the document.
Leaving the mail on the steps
she went inside and locked the door.
The man stood astonished at her reaction.
Things insignificant as this and irrelevant to the man
as such do cause an irk and a palpitation in the mind .

The Grass Roots.

The little grass seen over there
dazzled with dew drops on its blades.
The green and silvery hue over there
set a picture of a lively glade.
The grass knew not it is going to be razed down
as a man was moving to the spot to cut it in haste.
The sprightly grass became nothing exposing the ground brown.
The grass lay down in heap assuming the expense of waste.
Nay, it did not lay thee for long under the sun
as a cow ,which was loitering around, seeing the grass
walked towards it and started munching it with great fun.
With that the grass vanished from sight in a flash.

Great They Call

It is great they say.
it is greatness they call.
Great has meanings many
with a general term
directing to good
and specialised frame
indicating noble.
it is something hard to attain
something difficult to achieve.
That which causes wonder.
That which raises value
Altogether great is a quality
not common and very rare
bringing along an awe
with an inspiration again great.

In Tip Toe

It is a go
in a row
with a bow
on the toe
going slow
keeping with a flow
looking with a glow
as if in a show
seeking nothing low
going not far below
of course with a blow
nothing to allow
not in a shadow
past the meadow
in the narrow
through the furrow
finally into the burrow
went the rabbit in tip toe.

Trial in Courts.

Courts are assembling place.
Lawyers high and low gather.
Judges sit in a high place.
with great pride rather.
The lawyers make a fuss.
Telling one thing to their clients
Doing another in a feigned stress.
Judges come with determined inclines.
The trials are conducted in farce.
A make-believe effect is on the go.
The judge pretends to listen.
The lawyers cross-examine for a sake.
The plaintiffs get their expectations.
The defendants angered at the fake
go in for fresh applications.
The lower court gets it completed .
The ordeal continues in the higher courts
The loser then goes to the highest
The case find no end in all courts
unless the parties conclude in the earliest
it would drag on for years and years
consuming the life-time of the challengers.
It is not unusual that those who are wrong get credited
the losers are always the just.
That is justice in a nut shell.
This is not an experience personal
but a study of cases in general.

Reaching Out

Penning for money is blasphemous.
Never do that.
Writing for praise is horrendous.
Never do that.
Versifying for reputation is frivolous.
Never do that.
Writing is spontaneous.
It is inherent
Sprouting out in a bout
embracing with love.
The joy of creation
knows no bounds
leaping up high
crossing the borders
flying over the skies
across the oceans
reaching the hearts
of many a reader
that is its true reward.

Ands and Buts.

The ands and buts in the usage
give a large distributive leverage.
The and is an easiest conjunction
while but is an ominous junction.
The and goes on with a free flow
directing to a temporary slow.
The but gives a break sudden
leading to a suspense in the end.
These words are a boon to the writer
as they gives facilities to cater
with a period to think over
and a time to build over.
Without these two words
much would hold back
as great literature would pack
and go for a hiding in a set back.
