it is a tough stain
has remained
now has gained
has become a strong taint
no more easy to drain
as it has not a pretext feign
it is but a plain
indelible mark that even rain
cannot diffuse it without pain
if that be the status of a stain
that is outward on main
what would be the case of inward drain
that would be an effort vain.

The Day Rolls Out.
The day’s activities be it great or ordinary
takes one in a series of affectation extraordinary
that of unexpected calls in time not proper
that of interruptions at moments improper
gives a startling feel in a duration short
envisaging a criteria in a sort
have to go through them in a dumb spell
as if nothing amiss has happened in a tell
lest the day gets rolled in a disfavour
as the errands halt without a vigour.
then comes a fall back and stoppage
the day gets paralysed with an entourage
the day-to-day schedule getting deferred
with a salvation not found in the buffer.

Forego Weekends.
Week
ends are for rest
They are to be enjoyed.
When does one enjoy?
With the week days in office
the Saturdays and Sundays
have more work than other days.
Cleaning the house thoroughly.
scrubbing and vacuuming
tending the garden
cooking delicacies
spending time laundering
shopping for the week
all throughout the two days
make the weekends stressful.
With children at home
there arises exceptional
care and monitoring
giving the mind and body
no amount of rest
which both badly need.
Come no weekends after the fifth day
the routine of getting up
and attending to work
gets along without interruptions
But come the break every fifth day
there emanates great toil
and greater drain with
greatest exertion and fatigue.
With that there arises
a clarion call
let us forego weekends.
