Meenas PoemsI live far away from the ocean
yet I could hear its roar
I live far away from the lands frozen
yet I could see the fluffy snow
I live far away from the mountains
yet I could feel its loftiness from afar.
I live in a plain land totally flat
so I am plain as all that.
Expecting nothing
brings a lot of things.
with ornate and adorns
releasing a bright dawn.
Expecting the most
leads to a bare toast
plain without any garnish
being one forced and tarnished.
This be the experience of all
but we go on thinking of the call
when there is really no prompt
beholding a diversified plot
the mind gets on with the clause
going beyond all the choice
considering the gross ahead
then taking up the net instead
with workings in and around
hoping to receive with an abound.
well that is the way we are brought
as we go on making things hot.
There was a lovely pond,
Full of water and fish,
The ducks traversed in a bond,
Quacking all the way with a wish,
Water lilies and lotus bloomed beautifully,
The children played around merrily,
One fine day the pond was drained,
Sand was dumped to make it plain,
The pond took the shape of a big ground,
The land value was zealously found,
Buildings came up in scores,
Offices started operations in full force,
Thus the pond lost its serenity overnight,
It is an illustration of greed in sight,
It is money that looks highly grand
All other things are forgotten in this land.
