Meenas PoemsFlying is fun
embark and fly but breathe
after reaching the destination.
Flights have disappeared
not once but twice all too sudden
for reasons unknown.
The rationality behind
pilot’s suicide
, his carelessness, a snag
all human trepidations.
Long time since I thought of the world
as I am away from the world
far into the world of my words
I stand on a precipice high above
I have nothing to support
well, that could be my life in and out
lived so long with none on board.
A case of loneliness, it could be
not am I a solitary child as to be
born with siblings five a good number
been always out of their circle, I remember
how did it happen I am not aware
yet I grew up with no share
got a little of the high volumes
yet they always bubbled with fumes
knew not for what reason it was
deliberated long to know the cause
success was never by my side
jealousy runs high like a gigantic tide
this is at my mother’s place
also similar to the in-laws case
as it would be an easy surmise now
my spirits sink very low
I live amidst my families right
physically it is a straight hit
I am miles and miles away from them
I have many chances to see them
my mind carries me away very fast
now they are strangers to me in a cast
this could be the edge of the world in a focus
I could see an opened door that shows a grand status.
The summer is early
it hots up dearly
before it was once yearly
now it is present daily
the breeze is hot
men are caught
water is bought
this is what happens
as the summer sharpens
the heat deepens
there is perspiration
there are indispositions
there are propositions
the global warming stems up
left as such would hot up
one has to top up
with ideas for reduction
and strike a note on deduction
along with an introduction
that way the summer could shorten
the other seasons would lengthen
through which the temperatures would lessen
a research and a study should ensure
a back to the old days of moderation in an assure.
A way to dress
as occasions demand
simple and pressed
the best in stand
decent and modest always
never gaudy and provocative
mild designs stitched appropriately
disciplined and not reactive
never an eyesore but eye-catching
extends a respect and admiration
could win over hearts in full
a really reliable mode of conduct
found in the attire you darn not dull
as a dress makes half the person
the rest, of course.
is the behave and intellect.
The feel of greatness
keeps me awestruck
the thought of nothingness
relates to a daring pluck
both awakens us to a reality
greatness is abstract
and it commands an instability
the pride makes us insecure in fact
nothingness is a vacuum definitely
it lends an emptiness and an alarm
the fear makes us indolent exactly
the apprehension arises from the storm
one being correlated to the other
pride and insecurity coordinate
greatness and nothingness do bother
with the same tenor not in a deviate.
There be a dialogue
cannot call it a dialogue
it is a monologue
a conversation between two
where the one is slow
the other one more garrulous
talks all the more meaningless
tells of her beauty in no ordinary terms
while the quieter one listens with a firm
the talkative goes on and on with no break
the silent spectator stares at him without a take
the eyes get tired and wink now and then
the mouth never minces a word in strength
the dialogue turns into a monologue
happens all the time whenever I log
that be the way along the stream
where one glitters with a gleam
the other shines with a dream.
The shortcomings and shortfalls
should never take the call
their suffix short interprets clearly
they are for period very short exactly
never make a fuss of a shortcoming
be it an enquiry of death or birth
be it a greeting missed or mirth
could be an oversight or intentional
do not think it is irrational or rational
let you examine yourself thoroughly
then point your finger at others firmly
without the self-analysis nothing turns
remember that and go ahead without spurn
the newborn is innocent about that prevails
the dead have flown from these worldly travails
reminds me of those who are alive and lively
do at times keep away from each other knowingly
recall a forgotten one and make it an issue knowingly
the same could be said of shortfalls
they are simple when reviewed not pitfalls
could not we who breathe live in peace?
that would bring about benevolence
with please.
The theory of Darwin
is of a great win
founded on a strong basis
could be a lively thesis
all life is related almost
birds and bananas in the foremost
man and animals with common ancestors
the theory goes around with great zest
disputed and undisputed time and again
Darwin’s still holds the rein
evolution is a process continuous
goes on with a flow tremendous.
The day yesterday
indeed a taxing day
a drive up and down
on a road of ups and downs
the sun was never up and down
it shone all through the ups and downs
have to negotiate every up and down
returned on the same road of ups and downs
once back home rushed up and down
arranged the house which was upside down
fell on the bed not up and down
dreamt of events that ranged up and down
Am I obsessed with up and down?
The isms on the go
with a realism on the flow
the suffix “Sur
” with realism
turns into surrealism
such that be in the medical dictionary
they combat an itinerary
one of a thyroid deficiency
due to lack of efficiency
marked by hyperthyroidism
contradicted by hypothyroidism
along with the interaction impairment
called as the dreaded autism in
an impeccable charisma is idealism
while destiny is associated with fatalism
enters the royalty with imperialism
the less space is affirmed as minimalism
these are the major isms along with the minority
dualism and parallelism in priority
the pragmatism refers to the practical
thus, they occupy with no schisms
well defined by the rising metabolism.
